Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, No. 14)1 review
Janet Evanovich

St. Martin's Press, 2008

All of the series are great...
I've become a regular fan of "Stephanie Plum" series. Evanovich is a fabulous writer. I've read this one and the previous 13 books in this series. I'm looking forward to the 15th I think is coming in June or July. Lots of humor about the character's family...her grandma is the best. Some love thrown in, adventure, and all sorts of great things. I highly recommend her books, especially this ... 		  
  







  
  
Phantom Prey (Lucas Davenport Mysteries)40 reviews
John Sandford

Putnam Adult, 2008

The best Prey novel yet.
Lucas was in rare form. The twist was exciting. The action was riviting. It was wonderful as these novels always are.

The Hollow
The book is excellent, as with all Nora Robert's novel. I read the book in two days. It was hard to put down.

David Baldacci

Hachette Audio, 2008

Great Book
I really liked this book. When I first saw the title of the book I thought it might be the next book in the Camel Club series (which I LOVE). At first I was a bit disappointed when I realized it was not part of the Camel Club series but my disappointment was short lived. If you like an action packed book with a hero that has all the human frailties yet still seems indestructible, this book is ... 		  
  







  
  
Nothing to Lose (Jack Reacher Novels)20 reviews
Lee Child

Delacorte Press, 2008

Ignore these partisan rants; NTL is another home run
I'm shocked by some of the nutty reviews on here. Are these people forgetting that the bad guys in the last book were mideasterners and that military folks came together to save the day?? Without giving away spoilers, I can say that the book's neither anti-Christian nor anti-military. More (much more) importantly, the book is another great entry in the series: same brilliant plotting, same ...

William P. Young

Windblown Media, 2007

Impossible Possibility!
Anyone with any kind of hurt, pain, disappointment in life and/or with God needs to read this book! The clarity of this book in speaking to the journey we all share as humans seeking to know God, and answering life's toughest questions is stunning. This book challenges me to lay down my simplistic instituitonal thinking and embrace God more intimately. This book is for me straight out of the ...

The Pillars of the Earth1165 reviews
Ken Follett

NAL Trade, 2002

A great, LONG, fun read!
Everyone hates it when the book you love comes to an end, and we have all prolonged the last chapters to make a book last longer. Well, Ken Follet has come as close as anyone to solving that problem! This book is great fun to read and it is so long that you would be unreasonable to think it shouldn't end when it does. There are many storylines in the book, lots of great characters, some ... 		  
  







  
  
Careless in Red: A Novel46 reviews
Elizabeth George

Harper, 2008

Red is an attention getter!
I have loved Elizabeth George's novels since I picked up my first one 3 years ago. I now own them all. Inspector Lynley and Barbara Havers are two of my absolute favorite detectives and I don't know what I would do if Ms. George hadn't let us in on what happened to poor Thomas Lynley after the death of his wife. "Careless" had me captive until the end. Just when I thought I knew who the ...

Ken Follett

Dutton Adult, 2007

EVEN BETTER THAN "PILLARS OF THE EARTH"
I just finished this incredible book and am sorry that I did; it was like saying goodbye to family. I have read all of Ken Follett's books, and this was unquestionably the best!! He is a great writer, storyteller, and historian. I have several favorite writers, but Mr. Follett has far outstripped them all. I will not discuss any parts of this saga except to say that though I read "Pillars of ...

Sundays at Tiffany's63 reviews
James Patterson, Gabrielle Charbonnet

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

Lighten up! I loved this story!!!
I bought this in CD format was loved the voices rendered to the story telling of this sweet story. I liked it so much that I'm ordering a hardback for my library and passing on the CD to my friend. Of course it's a fantasy, but so is Star Wars and Indiana Jones..... I liked them also. I loved the characters in this story... you have to have a good group to make a story work and with Jane, ...

Plague Ship (Oregon Files)3 reviews
Clive Cussler

Putnam Adult, 2008

Cussler has done it again
Clive Cussler is one of those authors you wish would write faster than they do. His books are suspenseful and always full of action. Plague Ship is by far the best yet of the Oregon Files series. Once you get past the preliminary story it turns to an immediate page turner. GREAT BOOK ! ! ! If I had one wish beyond having this author write faster .. I would ask Hollywood to make more of his ... 		  
  







  
  
Hold Tight85 reviews
Harlan Coben

Dutton Adult, 2008

Hold Tight and Sit Tight at the End!!
What a page turner from the Master of Action and Suspense!! This is a riveting can't-put-it-down story that captures the reader from the first chapter and won't let go untl the last page is turned---And then you yearn for more. You want these people, good, well-meaning people all, to be OK, but we can never be sure about them as we can never be sure about ourselves and those we love and care ... 		  
  







  
  
The Appeal368 reviews
John Grisham

Doubleday, 2008

The Appeal
Of the 30+ books I've read so far this year, this is by far the BEST novel- almost nonfiction it is so realistic and true to real life. No wonder our judicial system is broken and there are so many innocent people in prison. No one writes so fluidly and interestly as John Grisham and we look forward to more of his works - have read everything he has written. 		  
  







  
  
7th Heaven (The Women's Murder Club)97 reviews
James Patterson, Maxine Paetro

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

made for television drama
Interesting with twists and turns and complicated storylines, which is why 4 stars. However, the serialized missing person and the serial arsonist plots were too serial and reminded me: years ago I knew a person who wrote for a popular Soap. There were a bunch of people who wrote the treatments for each hour show. I've read treatments, and this reminded me of those. Not that there is anything ...

Alexander Mccall Smith

Pantheon, 2008

Prizes little-noticed
We're all familiar with the big miracles: the little child as sole survivor of an airplane crash or the earthquake victim pulled alive from rubble a week after the event. Precious Ramotswe, however, is sensitive to the other kind, the little miracles with long-term meaning for family affairs. Founder of The Number One Ladies Detective Agency of Gabarone, Botswana, Precious has been rather ... 		  
  







  
  
Dead Heat (Political Thrillers Series #5)127 reviews
Joel C. Rosenberg

Tyndale House Publishers, 2008

Dead Heat
I couldn't put this book down! Joel C. Rosenberg has done such extensive research, and most importantly, connects Scripture to the facts and the "what ifs". I now "see" and understand much more about the future based on Scripture than I did before reading Dead Heat even though I've been reading the Bible daily. If you are already a Christian, you can "connect the dots", and if you aren't, this ...
