People Who Walk In Darkness (Inspector Rostnikov)

Stuart M. Kaminsky

Forge Books, 2008

Kaminsky delivers again
Rostnikov returns once again with an excellent cast of supporting characters. As an avid reader, I grow weary of villians that I can recognize in the first third of the book as well as the introduction of characters that we do not really care about. Once more the ...

A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail (Official Guides to the Appalachian Trail)

Bill Bryson

Broadway, 1999

ridiculous, but it inspired me
I had a long history as a streetwalker. Yes, a streetwalker. But, I never had even spent the night outdoors. However, when I read Bill Bryson's book I immediately decided I wanted to thru-hike the entire 2,175 mile trail. There is a lot of criticism on the AT about ...

A Walk to Remember

Nicholas Sparks

Grand Central Publishing, 2004

A Beautiful, and Poignant Novel!
A WALK TO REMEMBER was a novel I checked out from the library because I was tired of fast-paced action novels by John Grisham and Tom Clancy (don't get me wrong; I love Grisham and Clancy). I like dramas and romances, so I checked this one out. It's the first Sparks ...

Joan Anderson

Broadway, 2005

An Uncommon Delight
I first "met" Joan Anderson in her book, A Year By the Sea. I was in awe of this woman who took a hiatus from her marriage, moved to the solitude of a life on Cape Cod and took the time to really get to know herself. Her second book, An Unfinished Marriage, was a ...

A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail

Bill Bryson

Anchor, 2006

Typical witty, funny, entertaining and educational fare from Bryson
I will admit right off the bat to being a big Bill Bryson fan. My only disappointment when it comes to him is that he hasn't written more. I am trying to catch up on some of his previous works so I read a walk in the woods. Needless to say you will not be ...

Three Rivers Press, 2003

Brilliant!
The author starts from the clever premise of asking people to describe interesting situations--being struck by lightning, being in a tornado, being shot in the head--and they tell him how it feels and he tells us! It's a quick read but don't let the ease of reading ...
