The Crystal Cave (The Arthurian Saga, Book 1)
Mary Stewart
Eos (Trade), 2003
Such a good read
Exactly what I was in the market for. A well written fantasy novel that is so convincing you'll think it really happened... I highly recommend this book and the other two in the series.

Thornyhold
Mary Stewart
Chicago Review Press, 2008
Heartwarming and magical
I absolutely LOVED this book! Once I started it I couldn't put it down until I finished it. It has the perfect blend of spells, potions, romantic love, family love, humor, and mystery as Gilly comes to terms with her childhood memories. I did not want this wonderful ...

The Ivy Tree
Mary Stewart
Chicago Review Press, 2007
interesting
This book is wordy and descriptive--half of our book club really appreciated her use of words, and half found it tedious. The beginning is a little slow and hard to engage in, but stick with it because the plot thickens enormously in the middle and the twist is so ...

Moonspinners
Mary Stewart
HarperTorch, 2003
My favorite Mystery/Romance
Mary Stewart is a brilliant author. I've read the Moonspinners several times, and I'm always hooked from the very first line: "It was the egret, flying out of the lemon-grove, that started it."
Sparks of romance light the way through this unique mystery filled with ...

Madam, Will You Talk?
Mary Stewart
HarperTorch, 2003
Superb!
Mary Stewart writes great romantic suspense. This novel has the beautiful settings, fast-paced mystery and charming protagonist of all her suspense novels, plus an edge-of-your-seat climatic car chase that will leave you wanting to rush out and get her other books.

Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy
Mary Stewart
Eos, 1980
The Arthurian Legend - from Merlin's perspective
Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy is one of my all time favorite series of
books. I read them first when I was about 13 years old and have re-read them frequently since then. What I like is that Ms Stewart's focus is on
good story telling. These are the characters of ...

Nine Coaches Waiting
Mary Stewart
Chicago Review Press, 2006
A Keeper
A Cinderella story. I loved it when I read it years ago. I have continued to re-read it. And I love it now.
My public had to dig it up from the hidden stacks, but a few years back I checked out and read The Revenger's Tragedy, which Stewart quotes as epigrams ...

Yoga For Children

Fireside, 1993
Simple and adaptable!!!
I love this book. Let me say that I've probably owned this book 4 times, but it continually disappears and I have to buy it again. I am a pediatric occupational therapist, so I do a lot of Yoga with children with disabilities.
I've used this book with kids ages 3 ...

She Paints Pictures
I have loved every novel written by Mary Stewart, some more than others. I read this one well over twenty years ago and many times since then. It is one of my many favorite of her books. In her books you get to travel; you feel as if you are really there. I have ...

The University of North Carolina Press, 2007
Magnificent Work
This is a magnificent book. I had given up hope finding a good reference work for North Carolina geology and then stumbled upon this book. I highly recommend it for its general discussion of Carolina geological history and its guided tours of specific locations. I'm ...
