Thrillers
Review:Strong character development and world building. There wasn't much of a story plot arc, but the world author imagined is very convincing and realistic. The tone of the boom remind me a lot of The Giver for some reason. Read more
Review:There are a lot of characters in this novel. Some go away and pop up later with little character development. All of a sudden the main character, for example, has a bed mate, A lexandra. Where did she come from? Who is she? Who knows? It wasn't really clear to me on only one reading why the principal character changed allegiance. He didn't really seem to believe in in communism, just got swept up in something that kept him out of a rut. Maybe every thing will sort itself out when I finish... Read more
Review:Twenty-five years after initial publication, John le Carre's journey through the "theater of the real" that is the Middle East is a packed house of poignancy. The 60th anniversary of the founding of the State of Israel prompted me to read "The Little Drummer Girl" and I concluded that anyone who remains a flag-waving partisan of the Israelis or the Palestinians after reading this book is lacking some basic building blocks of humanity.

Review:Another fun read by Clive Cussler! Solid action with some curious escapes as usual. This had a really novel plot and you had to write in your own answers to questions that developed in your reader’s mind. Read more
Review:The plot twists and turns as bungled anti-terrorist action is covered up and denied. However as intriguing as this is, the joy of reading Le Carre is riding along with his brilliant grasp of the range of vernacular English as spoken by Brits from various classes and regions. The story is revealed through many different voices, all establishing memorable characters. Read more
Review:Loved it! Not only was the story line intricate, suspenseful, and very clever, but I could hear Hugh Laurie's wicked, dry sense of humor on every page. I'm sure that I giggled and out-right laughed so much that I had to stop reading more often than I gasped in surprise or said "Yikes!" outloud. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys thrillers, but it is an absolute must for fans of Hugh Laurie's comedic... wait for it... brilliancy! Read more
Review:Just got done listening to One, Two, Buckle My Shoe by Agatha Christie. Even though I know the story it was so enjoyable to listen to this CD while I commute back and forth to work. I love her books on tape! Read more
Review:Although these books were written 80 years ago she really is the best writer for a good murder mystery and I love British mysteries with a passion. If a murder has to be "civilized" then she is the best and the victim usually deserves it!!! Read more
Review:Good Book. I've read all of Reichs' "Bones" books, and have enjoyed them all. A word of caution to those unfamiliar, and who might be expecting the stories from the TV show... Fuggedaboutit! The Books bear very little resemblence to the TV 'Bones' character, and none of the TV show accoutrements, like 'The Jeffersonian', Booth, Brennan's father, The Jeffersonian crew, etc. exist in the books - they are a completely different world.
