Review:Tangled Webs is a continuation that takes place after the short stories in Dreams Made Flesh. The plot mainly focuses on Surreal, with lots of character involvement from Lucivar, Janelle, Damian and others. It provides a larger view into what normal life is like for the Blood, as well as having a murder mystery type story to solve.

Review:After finishing the brilliant and hilarious “Diary of a Nobody,” I made the brave decision to read another satirical British novel about a young lecturer of medieval history set in post-World War II Britain.

Review:Being from Virginia, I especially loved the depictions of the countryside. I find Rita Mae Brown's fox hunting mysteries hard to put down. The stories are true to the genre, fast paced and a blend of humor and mystery. Highly recommend. Read more

Review:In Chapter 22 of the book, Cooper says, "Well, no one want to know what a sheriff's deputy thinks about the world's confusion." The same should be said for mystery writers.

In her later books, and especially in this one, Ms. Brown has her characters pontificating on the law and government way too much of the time. It's time to get back to emphasis on the good old-fashioned mystery aspects. Read more

Review:Chapter book flimsy paper with black and white illustrations which are few and far between. The cover and pages seem very thin. But the stories are captivating and excite the imagination as you would hope. Read more

Review:Flat Stanley books are great books because they are funny and interesting. None of the books are similar to the other books in the series, and each book has a surprise. I also liked that the books have interesting illustrations, a lot of words on each page and the font is easy to read. (review by 8-year old son) Read more
