Devil Bones: A Novel (Temperance Brennan Novels)
Kathy Reichs
Scribner, 2008
Devil Bones
+ Wonderful sinister characters complicate this story
The content of this book is great-I am a fan of Kathy Reichs.
The actual book arrived promptly and in very good shape. I use Amazon quite a bit as I am an avid recycler.

City of the Sun: A Novel
David Levien
Doubleday, 2008
A gut tightening read!
+ For the Lost
+ Gritty and moving
I guess like myself, many UK readers will since this tale involves a child kidnapping and the events a year later inevitably make comparisons in their mind with the widely publicised McCann case, especially in its depiction of the major impact of events on the parents. This is no bad thing in ...

You've Been Warned
James Patterson, Howard Roughan
Little, Brown and Company, 2007
REALLY SCARY
+ Awsome book!!! but not for everyday Patterson fans
I found this to be be one scary book. I almost finished it last night. I couldn't though because it was dark. I am a huge fan of Koontz and this read is truly in competition with Koontz's most terrifying. I was sorry to see some of the not so great reviews because I loved the storyline, cast ...

Charley's Web: A Novel
Joy Fielding
Atria, 2008
If You Spin a Web, You Just Might Catch Yourself
+ Another Good Book!
This book caught my attention due to the name - who can't help but think of the old classic Charlotte's Web even though they are not related in any way or not of the same type of style. Charly's Web is about a Florida columnist and single mom at thirty, who has been battling emotional scars due to ...

The Street Lawyer
John Grisham
Delta, 2005
masterpiece
+ Ideals lost and regained
+ Just a step away
I just dont understand why some people could call this work boring or disappointing. to me it is probably grisham's best (together with "painted house". human, down on earth...I just wished I could be a lawyer to be able to do the same. just hope to get grisham's book on kindle someday.

Careless in Red: A Novel
Elizabeth George
Harper, 2008
Thomas Lynley continues his journey
+ Careless in Red
....metaphorically speaking.
This is a first for George. As with all of her stories featuring Thomas Lynley there is a crime which must be solved, but in this case the crime is really incidental to the main thrust of the story, which is Lynley's journey (both physically and emotionally ...

The Chamber
John Grisham
Delta, 2005
John Grisham's Best-Seller
+ The Chamber Review...great!
+ An Extended Look at Guilt, Remorse, Punishment, and Redemption
I have long been a John Grisham fan. My personal favorite is his first book, A Time to Kill, later adapted into a successful film. Some of Grisham's books are heavily influenced by Christianity. The Testament and The Last Juror come to mind. The Chamber is John Grisham's best-selling book - ever. ...
