Historical Romance At It's Best
Cinnamon Wharf is one of my favorite books. I've read it numerous times and each and every time that I read it I enjoy it even more. Janice Young Brooks creates a very believable portrait of Victorian gentry, and the travel chapters in the novel are simply fascinating, and very well researched I might add. The Beecham's are a family you will want to get in touch with again and again. Don't ...

Well Done Sandra Gulland--An Outstanding Conclusion!!!
I can't express how much I loved this wonderful novel. The most accurate adjective I can think of would be 'interesting'. This book was soooo interesting. Gulland's attention to detail is absolutely meticulous. She used over 400 sources in the writing of this trilogy. I learned so much--not only about Napoleon and Josephine, but also of other historical figures of that time. I also found ...

BAGGZIT! BILLY HOPKINS!
`You read OUR KID?' I asked a bibliophiliac pal of mine recently, ANYTHING GOES, the most recent book in Billy Hopkins' best selling Manchester-based family saga having just seen the light of day. `Read OUR KID?' said my pal, the polymath. `Of course I've read OUR KID. It's a wonderful book! Y'know, there are people who've read OUR KID who never open a book from one year's end to the next! ...

ordinary people doing extraordinary things at sea
Love, adventure and seafaring around the world. A little known but very real story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, at the time of the last great world discoveries. That the protagonists were often performing heroic feats against their will, as in the case of the deported prostitutes, makes the tale even more captivating. This was enjoyable reading, instructive history and made you ...

Looming smallpox?
Although smallpox was eradicated in nature, Preston explains the very real threat of this vicious virus. Preston explains how smallpox could be used as a bioweapon, and the reality behind its "limited storage" at the CDC and in Siberia. He explains how this virus may be in the hands of other countries or terrorists groups. This book is easy to read and again, Preston does such a good job of ...

Yours, Faithfully
Did not purchase from Amazon, purchased while in Ireland, signs everywhere for this book. Bought it, had it read within 2 weeks of starting it. Did not start reading until I got back home. Great book, fantastic writer, kept you wondering exactly what would happen in the end. Wish I had purchased more of her books. J/Gross

HIGH APPLE PIE IN THE SKY-Y-Y HOPES
Heck, what can I add to a review like this one, culled from Amazon-across-the Pond? . . .

Great
I just finished Hyperion and was amazed. I've read one other book by Dan Simmons - The Terror, which I absolutely loved - and I'm going through the rest of his books, starting with this one. The most powerful story has to be The Scholar's Tale - I was reading it during my lunch hour and had to choke back tears.

Cozy mystery
I recently found this book at the library and was eager to read it, since it is hard to find non-Brother Cadfael books by Ellis Peters. I was happy to find it was as good as the Inspector Felse mystery series she wrote at the same time. Inspector Felse is not in it, but the plot is just as good. It reminded me of The House of Green Turf with it's unraveling of the past piece by piece. It ...
