St. Valentine's Day Massacre: The Untold Story of the Gangland Bloodbath That Brought Down Al Capone17 reviews
William J. Helmer, Arthur J. Bilek
Cumberland House Publishing, 2006
Breaking ground alone is worth five stars
I'll be up front about two things before reviewing this book. The first is that one of the authors, Bill Helmer, is a close friend of long standing. The second is that I am a True Crime author myself, with a first-hand knowledge of the difficulties that accompany the research and writing of this kind of story: inaccurate newspaper coverage, carelessly compiled police reports, and of course the ...

Faith Filled Fiction
I have been a fan of the writing of Katherine Valentine since I discovered A Miracle for St. Cecilia's, the first in her Dorsetville series. So I was excited to read The Country Fair and become reacquainted with the lovable characters that fill the pages of Valentine's stories. I must say that The County Fair exceeded all of my hopes and expectations. Not only was the plot line wonderful, but ...

Barbara Park
Random House Books for Young Readers, 1999
Better than candy!
Well, of course, it's Junie B. Jones... The problem is, she just doens't know who sent it!
If you're a fan of Barbara Park's books you can just imagine what kind of misunderstandings will be afoot as Junie works on this question -- and the answer is not at all what you (or Junie) are expecting.
Junie B. Jones and the Mushy Gushy Valentine is a sweet Valentine's Day treat for your child, and ...

With Patience, Your Day Can Get Better
According to Paige Bister, my seven-year-old active reader pal, Geronimo started Valentine's Day in New Mouse City looking in the mail, hoping that his family and friends had sent their response to their party invitation.
But, no one sent it.
From that disappointment, Geronimo suffered many other disappointments throughout the day. It was almost as though whatever happened to him was ...

Eos, 1995
Stands up well over time.
I have been in a phase lately of re-reading science fiction and fantasy favorites from when I was a teenager. What I have generally found is that I still enjoy them, but that nostalgia provides most of the pleasure. Lord Valentine's Castle is the rare example that I suspect I would enjoy as much if I were reading it for the first time today.
The adventures of Valentine, the juggling ...

Grace Will Lead Me Home
In her third installment in the Dorsetville series, Katherine Valentine reunites us with her cast of colorful characters from A Miracle for St. Ceclia's & A Gathering of Angels. By now the characters feel like family. From the first page, you'll feel like you're returning home.
Ranging from light-hearted story lines, like the priests losing housekeeper Mrs. Norris, leaving them in a house of ...
