Evangeline by Longfellow
Evangeline is Longfellow's masterpiece. The poem begins with the famous "forest primeval" . The reader is taken to the home of the Acadian farmers and the famous village reminescent of a variety of tradespeople. The work describes whole communities dispersed and separated from the homeland in the mid-1700s. Evangeline and Gabriel flee home and experience the pain of separation despite the fact ...

Evangeline Mudd and the Great Mink Escapade

David Elliott

Candlewick, 2006

Intelligent book for young girls
Not as good as the first - but my review stays the same ... Finally a book where the girl is not self-absorbed, shallow, or boy obsessed. The heroine loves her parents, is brave, and smart. A fun book to read to your child. Great political(ish) adult humor to keep us entertained.

Evangeline Mudd's Great Mink Rescue

Candlewick, 2008

Caveat Emptor
Buyer beware-- this is the same book as "Evangeline Mudd and the Great Mink Escapade", but it has been renamed in the paperback version. I preordered this in hopes of a third instalment in the Evangeline Mudd series, which my daughter (Age 6/7) thoroughly enjoys. Sadly there is no third book, just two different titles for the second in the series. Note that Amazon even advises that the two ...

Napoleon and Josephine: The Improbable Marriage

Evangeline Bruce

Scribner, 1995

A Superb Dual Biography
Evangeline Bruce must be congratulated for this excellent dual biography of Napoleon and Josephine. This is the most useful kind of biography, in that we not only learn the idiosyncratic details of individual lives, but the protagonists serve as windows through which we observe an age. I have assigned this book to my students in a 300-level seminar on "The Age of Napoleon," and it has generated ...

Great gift or keepsake edition

It is a hardcover, beautifully decorated with gold colored print and flower designs. The spine is cloth covered. The poem is laid out attractively inside on ivory colored pages, illustrated with many black and white etchings throughout. A note in the back of the book ...

Candlewick, 2007

richly imagined
If you loved David Elliott's first book (and even if you didn't) you'll be bananas over Evangeline Mudd. "Bananas" seems an appropriate expression here as Evangeline's parents are primatologists, and she considers herself the luckiest girl in the world. After all what other parents would actually encourage their offspring to swing from a chandelier or tell their child to skip a bath at night ...

Evangeline Anderson

Aphrodisia, 2007

Excellent Erotic Futuristic Trio!
Evangeline Anderson uses her excellent creative imagination in three well-written erotic paranormal novellas full of sensual pleasure. The Girl, The Geek and the Time Machine is one of those stories that proves the saying "You can't judge a book by its cover" is true, when Dr. Ethan Robinson uses his time machine to help co-worker Kara at Smthye Labs, go back and restart a horribly bad day in ...

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Signet Classics, 2005

A great anthology of a true poet's work.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow is perhaps the greatest rhymester to have ever lived. His endless rhymes almost seem to stay in one's mind, refusing to go. And this edition of his collected poetry just shows Longfellow at his best. This here is poetry that - though over a hundred years old - is still fresh and alive with vigor. The poems tell tales of men and women, of birds and beast, and of gods ...

Linda Howard

Harlequin, 2008

Wonderful story. Intense emotions.
"He done her wrong" and she found out. I didn't want it to end. Robert's passion at the end was mesmerizing. This passion made him one of my favorite types of romance novel heroes. Definitely recommended. Sexual language: mild. Number of sex scenes: ten. Setting: current day small town in Alabama. Copyright: 1994. Genre: contemporary romance with a little suspense.

WOW, What A Story
Detectives Sean O'Brien and Nicholas Valenti have been partners and best friends for six years. They are total opposites in demeanour and looks - Valenti who is from a wealthy Italian family is tall, dark and repressed and O'Brien who is small statured, blond and good looking is very much the product of his outgoing, affectionate large Irish family. They have supported and depended on each other ...

Invest in Your Future
I was able to read this book and I felt compelled to share my thoughts with others. I just went through the law school admissions process and without this book I don't know how I would have been able to do it. Catered to addressing the issues that specifically affect African Americans applicants, this book shows tactics that will show any applicant how to piece together their application and ...

Michele Ivy Davis

Dutton Juvenile, 2004

A Book for all Ages
I don't usually read children's books, but bought this one for my grandchildren, read it myself, and was delighted. Perhaps the strongest feature is the way Ms. Davis captures the voice of 10-year-old Eddie Brown (Evangeline) the sassy little protagonist through whose eyes the story is told. Eddie's problem is that she lives with her dad, the village drunk, in a run-down Florida motel--one of ...

Aphrodisia, 2006

TAKE TWO? Yes, please...
As an author of erotic fiction, I envy Evangeline Anderson's writing style. She can make you weep, make you laugh, and make you HOT. I love all of her books, but TAKE TWO is one of my favorite reads. If you like Thea Devine, Robin Schone, Jaid Black, or Lora Leigh, you will adore Evangeline Anderson.

Evangeline Walton, Betty Ballantine

Overlook TP, 2003

I loved it!
I was very impressed with this book. Walton does a wonderful job of reworking the original Welsh legends into four stories. Naturally, she allows herself certain artistic freedoms, such as interpreting disputed aspects of the legends in a way that seems most plausible to her. However, her skill and her imagination make me gladly accept her interpretation. The writing is probably the most ...

Fabulous Ride
There is a murderer loose in Tampa who is turning authors into erotic works of art then killing them. The killer's M.O. is the same in all the murders. He ties his victims to their beds in classic bondage fantasy poses then tortures and strangles them. Detectives Cole Berkley and Alex Reed have been assigned to find and arrest the potential serial killer before any more writers of erotic fiction ...

Robert Tallant's sympathetic pen brings to life the Acadians' painful search for a land of freedom, hope, and love. When the unwelcome British came to Nova Scotia and took over this land the French colonists called "Acadia," faith and loyalty were continually tested. Marriages ...
