Tales from the Dad Side: Misadventures in Fatherhood

Steve Doocy

Anathem

Neal Stephenson

William Morrow, 2008

But what of the Thousanders Fraa Stephenson?

Roads to Quoz: An American Mosey

William Least Heat-Moon

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

Quoz
I wasn't sure there was a word for what happens to me when I read Heat-Moon's works. I find treaures in them that seem to be written just for me to find. How can that be? "PrairyErth" was such a treasure-box; I have read it every year since it was written, each time ...

William Morrow, 2008

Fascinating!
I was a Brady Bunch fan back in the day and of course wished I could look and be like Marcia Brady. Didn't every young girl? At any rate, I thought this book was excellent. Despite the horror her life became, I thought it was courageous for her to write this for the ...
