Sara Paretsky

Putnam Adult, 2005

A dependable author for good read...

It's been a while since I got a mystery to read, but I was in one of those moods where I just cannot bare to read anything that I need to be able to remember or make sense of for teaching, or writing. I just looked quickly at the books available in the local pharmacy, and there was a Paretsky that ...

Not a Girl Detective: A Cece Caruso Mystery13 reviews
Susan Kandel

William Morrow, 2005

Fun Summer Read

+ A Fun Read

This book was captivating from the first page. I wanted to know what Cece was up to in her latest adventure. It also brought back memories of my girlhood when I read Nancy Drew. I could not put the book down or go to sleep till I finished it.

Lord Byron's Novel: The Evening Land20 reviews
John Crowley

William Morrow, 2005

Admirable Achievement

+ An intriguing novel that elegantly intertwines mystery with history...

The technique of a story within a story is not new. In fact, it goes back to Sanskrit literature. Shakespeare used it effectively. Gide's "The Counterfeiters" carried on the theme and, bringing it into the modern era, John Gardner used it in his "October Light" and Margaret Atwood in "The Blind ...

Not So Picture Perfect : Book Five of the Syndicated Cartoon Stone Soup1 review
Jan Eliot

Four Panel Press, 2005

Jan Eliot never disappoints!

As always, I immensely enjoyed this collection of Stone Soup comic strips. It covers a lot of demographic ground, from toddlers to teens, and from middle-agers to golden-agers. The characters are endearing, the writing is lively and funny, and the situations are eerily familiar. In short, what's ...
