The Shack
William P. Young

Windblown Media, 2008

Belief and Amazement
I first heard of "The Shack" from a friend at my grandson's birthday. I agreed it would be a nice book to read and promptly forgot. While looking on Amazon, for another selection, I saw "The Shack" and bought it. After reading the first page I was hooked! I'm an ...
  
  











  



  
One Fifth Avenue
Candace Bushnell

Voice, 2008

Loved it !
I started reading this book on a Friday and finished it on Sunday. With all the other things I was involved in, I kept hurrying to get back to the book. The characters are all interesting, and the story moves fast. I love reading about New York and New Yorkers, and ...
  
  











  



  
Club Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 3)

Gripping Story - I can't get enough of this series

Watchmen
Alan Moore

DC Comics, 1995

Watchman paperback review
This book is a phenomenal read. I had a really hard time putting it down from the moment I got it and finished it in two days. I highly recommend this book, both for its graphic style and for its story. It's a little eerie how this cold war era book rings true today, ...
  
  











  



  
Living Dead in Dallas (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 2)
Charlaine Harris

Read with caution - This series is addictive
I read the first in this series, "Dead Until Dark" and loved it. This installment "hooked me". Sookie finds herself seriously attacked by a "creature" and is saved from a certain death by the vampires by a quite unusual approach. Sookie and Bill find themselves ...

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows

The Dial Press, 2008

A wonderful book!
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time -- witty, endearing characters, funny, heartbreaking. The subject, more serious than the title suggests, is the Nazi occupation of Guernsey during World War II and the aftermath. I learned a lot, laughed, cried, ...
  
  











  



  
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel (Oprah Book Club #62)
David Wroblewski

Ecco, 2008

Possibly the best book I've ever read...
I recently took this book on vacation with me after hearing it was an Oprah's pick. I don't get to read a lot but when I do, I expect the book to be excellent. This one exceeded my expectations. I absolutely devoured this book in just a few days, and was begging for ...

A Most Wanted Man
John le Carre

Scribner, 2008

The Nuances of the Spying Game
I have always wanted to be spy or a spook in the spying game vernacular. After reading John Le Carre's first novel, 'A Call For The Dead' and meeting George Smiley, I imagined myself in a trench coat hiding in corners. I then went on to read every book written by John ...

The Given Day: A Novel
Dennis Lehane

William Morrow, 2008

THE Great American Novel is a master work!
I love this book. I won't do a synopsis here as others have done so, but I have to say, I am blown away by this book. The eerie similarities of those times and our times shows how history repeats itself. Politics, big money, and mob mentality never seem to change. ...
  
  











  



  
Dead to the World (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 4)
