A Mercy
Toni Morrison
Knopf, 2008
You say I am wilderness. I am.
Finally a novel that lives up to the publisher's hype. So much is promised with each new book, but this is truly a fine work. I am unable to judge whether this is great literature, but it satisfied me on many levels. That is a rare occurrence for a piece of writing. I ...

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Stieg Larsson
Knopf, 2008
Perfect gift
So, here's a short story: My mom e-mails me with the subject, "I want the book, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" for Christmas." That's it. Nothing in the body. She obviously wanted this. Me, being her daughter in college, thought that a book would be cheap. I ...

Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time
Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin
Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007
No wonder it unanimously gets 5 stars
Truly one of the most inspirational books I have read in awhile.

Hungry Girl: Recipes and Survival Strategies for Guilt-Free Eating in the Real World
Lisa Lillien
St. Martin's Griffin, 2008
Great Cookbook for Hungry Gals
Offers great alternatives and sneaky tricks of the trade to eat healthier but remain satisfied! 1 Downside is the use of Tofu SHirataki in so many recipes but it is offered in so little stores....for me there is only 1 store about 40 miles away that sells the stuff! ...

Twilight (Twilight, Book 1)
Stephenie Meyer
Little, Brown Young Readers, 2005
Glitz is in!
I found the Twilight Saga to be pure fun. Perhaps the folks who don't like it take their free time more seriously than I do mine. Or perhaps they don't read at every available opportunity. I don't watch TV. I work very hard with very difficult people and reading is ...

Fancy Nancy: Bonjour, Butterfly (Fancy Nancy)
Jane O'connor
HarperCollins, 2008
Fantastic Book for Girls
I had never heard of the Fancy Nancy series until my daughter was given this as a gift. I love it, and both my daughters love it (ages 5 and 2). There are only a few sentences on each page but they are filled with [...] words, like "exquisite," "thrilled," "scowl," ...

Oh la la! We're going to a museum to see masterpieces!
What is there not to like about Fancy Nancy! Since this series began, young readers (and their parents) have held in their hands someone precious and pretty and sweet and fancy. The artwork is simply adorable and utterly feminine in depicting the precious and ...
