Lucinda, Darkly: The Demon Princess Chronicles 20 reviews
Sunny
Berkley Trade, 2007
Samhain Girl
Book was great, I loved the way she tied in the Mona Lisa Books but gave this book its own creatures and charaters. Sunny was able to make this book its own story. I love the fresh new take on the mixed genre. Sunny is a great writer!!

From Panic to Power: Proven Techniques to Calm Your Anxieties, Conquer Your Fears, and Put You in Control of ...90 reviews
Lucinda Bassett
Collins Living, 1997
gives hope
This author was actually pretty screwed up before she wrote this, and she's better now. She tells about what she (and some support group members) did to overcome agoraphobia and anxiety. If it worked for her, it has to work for anyone. This is great in conjuction with Edmund J. Bourne's Anxiety and Phobia Workbook. The techniques she used are more detailed in his workbook. They actually work if ...

Oscar and Lucinda54 reviews
Peter Carey
Faber and Faber, 2004
astonishingly good!
Oscar Hopkins is the red-haired, idealistic, hydrophobic, mantis-like son of a preacher from England. Lucinda Leplastrier is a beautiful, Australian feminist heiress who owns glass works. They are like two poles of opposite charge, completely different, yet attracting each other. There is only one thing they seem to have in common: the addiction to gambling.
Their meeting happens against all ...

Meg Mackintosh and the Mystery on Main Street: A Solve-It-Yourself Mystery (Meg Mackintosh Mystery series)1 review
Secret Passage Press, 2000
Meg Strikes Again!
Lucinda Landon knows how to whet a child's appetite for reading. She magically combines word and illustration as she brings the reader deeper and deeper into her Meg Mackintosh mysteries. Landon also stops at well planned intervals to have the reader go back over the clues, both discovered and yet to be discovered. She is amazing at the way she has the children self-monitoring their reading to ...

Handknits for Kids: 25 Original Designs for Girls and Boys20 reviews
Lucinda Guy
Trafalgar Square Books, 2005
Adorable handknits
This sweet book delighted me at first glance in December 2005, so I put it on my "Santa list." The next day I went back to the shop and bought it for myself -- Santa's usually good to me but why take chances? I'm cautious about books featuring a specific brand of yarn but Rowan's so luscious and children's knits use smaller amounts, so it seemed worth using the real thing.
I chose the ...

And So to Bed.: Handknits and Things8 reviews
Lucinda Guy
Trafalgar Square Books, 2006
BUY IT! DO NOT PASS GO, DO NOT COLLECT $200.....
Unlike so many other knitting books for babies and kids, this has creative, attractive patterns. No ugly pastels, no useless cutsie booties, no hideous hats, nothing that will embarrass the poor child in 15 years. None of that garbage. I make the stuffed toys and they are universally a hit. Buy this and Handknits for Kids. You will wear them out with use.

True Pleasures: A Memoir of Women in Paris4 reviews
Lucinda Holdforth
Greystone Books, 2005
Inspiring, insightful review of Paris' most engaging women
I loved this book. It is part biography, part philosophy, part social analysis. I found insight and inspiration in every chapter, and historical figures about whom I knew little or nothing came vividly to life. Holdforth goes to Paris to shake up her system and determine a direction for her life, and by studying the lives of many famous Parisian women (born there or elsewhere), she does just ...

My Father's Secret War: A Memoir20 reviews
Lucinda Franks
Miramax, 2007
My Fathers Secret War
At first I did not like Ms Franks or her book. I was not sure why she was writing if she disliked her father so much. But as I read on you could see she was trying, not very well at first, to understand her father and what made him tick. It took a lot and several times I wanted to slap her for some of the things she said but in the end she found the father she had wanted all along and really had ...

My Father's Secret War6 reviews
Lucinda Franks
Miramax, 2008
Outstanding Memoir
My father rarely talked about his experience in World War II and I never really asked him about it. Now that he's gone, I wish I had. Lucinda Franks asked her father, and he often demurred; but she persevered and was able to piece together a revealing story about the real horrors of war and the effect it has on its participants.
Franks is an insightful observer and a talented writer: I was ...

Roadside America: 365 Days6 reviews
Lucinda Lewis
Harry N. Abrams, 2003
The Open Road Comes Alive
Lewis captures the epic wonder, strange beauty, and raucous vitality of the American road. Her eye is attracted to the things we often notice, but seldom observe. The text is excellent, offering actual experiences of those who journeyed along these fabled highways in the past. The color photography is mouth-watering and extremely vivid (the neon practically jumps from the page), but the black and ...

Essential Pre-Raphaelites1 review
Lucinda Hawksley
Dempsey Parr, 1999
High Quality Color Reproductions
This book is a good buy with so many high quality color reproductions of art by Pre-Raphaelite artists. The format is reproduction on the right - a short write up on the history and background of that painting on the left, often with a similar work or a preliminary sketch reproduced much smaller and set into the text on the left hand side. The one flaw is that sometimes the reproduction spans ...
