Rules of Deception
Christopher Reich
Doubleday, 2008
Loved Reading This Book!
I have truly enjoyed reading this book, even though I am generally not a reader of fiction. This book was full of surprises at every turn and kept you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next. Very fast moving and I also enjoyed the fact that even ...

To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee
Grand Central Publishing, 1988
Everyone's Favorite . . .
I honestly have no idea how many times I have read this book. I read it first as an assignment in the eighth grade; most recently, at the age of 41, I read it aloud to three of my children. As with the more recent readings that I recall, I choked up a bit at the end ...

Devil Bones: A Novel (Temperance Brennan Novels)
Kathy Reichs
Scribner, 2008
Another great thriller from Reichs !
I have been a fan of this series from the beginning and unlike many series I still find myself eating this up like popcorn! I must admit I am a CSI fan and the whole forensic anthropology science I find fascinating. I also identify with Dr. Brennan, I am not a doctor ...

The Lace Reader: A Novel
Brunonia Barry
William Morrow, 2008
Quite enjoyable::::::
I enjoyed this book. It is well written and interesting. I live near Salem and found Ms Barry's descriptions to be accurate. I was unhappy to see she "exposed" the Roger Conant statue. I enjoyed seeing friends reactions to this statue as I showed it to them. I am ...

The 19th Wife: A Novel
David Ebershoff

Great book

Moscow Rules
Daniel Silva
Putnam Adult, 2008
VINTAGE SILVA/ALLON
I thoroughly enjoyed the book, as I have all the other works of Silva. His books are always fast paced, exciting and with a "can't put it down" quality. It was good for him to tackle another world problem we have today as far as hi-tech arms dealing and arming ...

Robert Ludlum's (TM) The Bourne Sanction
Eric Van Lustbader
Grand Central Publishing, 2008
This is the best of the Lustbader-Bourne novels to date...
Since Mr. Van Lustbader isn't trying to re-invent the wheel here (and let's face it: he'd be stupid to even try), he has taken on quite a daunting task of picking up where Ludlum left off with his most beloved character: Jason Bourne/David Webb. The Bourne Legacy was ...

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan: A Novel
Lisa See
Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2006
I'ms so glad I found Lisa See!
It's not every book you come across that so completely sucks you into a world you knew nothing about. Historical, culture novels aren't really my genre, but I'm glad that I read this one. I'm not sure how accurate the historical details are, but then again, it is a ...

Their Eyes Were Watching God
Zora Neale Hurston
Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2006
Their Eyes Were Watching God
Please read this book! I'm serious! The writing is pure poetry, with fantastic images that will stay with me forever. Also, the historical value cannot be exaggerated. The author, Nora Neale Hurston, gave us a tremendous gift.
