A Man With One of Those Faces (The Dublin Trilogy Book 1)
A Man With One of Those Faces (The Dublin Trilogy Book 1)

Review:Brilliant! I read all of the available books in this series before committing myself to writing this review. Within a few pages of this book, I began comparing Caimh McDonell with some of my favorite authors ever - Joseph Heller, Kirk Vonnegut, Jack London, Hunter S. Thompson, Diana Gabaldon, and James Wharton. These authors have a way of writing that makes me hang on every word and truly being characters to life. Caimh now has a place in my group of personal favorites. The authors differ from... Read more

After You Left
After You Left

Review:I read for entertainment and I found this novel to be very engaging. The references to Andrew Wyeth and Christina's World were appreciated as I read and even more so a week later when I saw the current Blue Man Group show which features Christina's World. I liked learning a little about how art can have an impact on an Alzheimer's patient. Read more

I had not read anything by Sara before but I definitely will again. I loved the completeness of her characters and the humor and heat she was able to bring out. It was a nice detour away from the typical "duke" story and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Read more

Around the World in Eighty Days (AmazonClassics Edition)
Around the World in Eighty Days (AmazonClassics Edition)

Review:A classic from my childhood first experienced through the Disney movie. This was quite a bit different yet all the better for it. I recommend to both the science fiction fan and the lover of history. Written about 1873 it's amazing how much things haven't changed in travel and in people. Read more

100 Best-Loved Poems (Dover Thrift Editions)
100 Best-Loved Poems (Dover Thrift Editions)

Review:There are many anthologies of "Best Loved" poems. I was hoping to find the Kindle version of the book that my English teacher gave me in high school around 30 years ago but this wasn't it. This anthology seems to have selected one poem per author as "best loved" and I can't say that I agree with the editor's picks, though it does have many famous poems in it. I have been selecting poems at random and have not read the entire book, so it's possible that parts of the book may be different than ... Read more

The Railway Children (Puffin Classics)
The Railway Children (Puffin Classics)

Review:Some of the children's classics become dry and difficult for modern kids to embrace. The Railway Children, whilst containing a little old style language, provides a gripping story line with imagery that children can embrace. Still an excellent read. Read more

Orlando (Vintage Classics)
Orlando (Vintage Classics)

Review:No lover in the world ever wrote a valentine more exquisite than Virginia Woolf's tribute to her lover Vita Sackville-West.

That tribute was "Orlando: A Biography," a magical-realism tale about a perpetually youthful, charming hero/ine who traverses three centuries and both genders -- and Woolf's writing reaches a new peak as she explores the hauntingly sensuous world of Orlando. It's one of those rare novels that transcends the time in which it was written, even as its hero/ine transcend... Read more
