Russell Quant on a Whole new Exciting Adventure
I was thrilled when I read the descriptor of this newest Russell Quant mystery. There is nothing more satisfying than putting a familiar hero in an unfamiliar - yet sinfully luxurious setting (a Mediterranean cruise from Barcelona to Rome)- along with some quirky characters, a potential love interest, some sun and frothy cocktails and see what happens. And the author does not disappoint. A ...

Sundowner Shines!
What a great writer Bidulka is! And I don't mean the story, which is indeed engrossing, but what beautiful sentences he crafts. Articulate, clever, often leading to an unexpected reveal - Bidulka's prose is always artful and he wields it with the skill of a master surgeon. That was the first thing I noticed about Sundowner Ubuntu - how strong the writing was. Then, I lost track of it, as I ...
Juggling Dynamite: An insider's wisdom about money management, markets, and wealth that lasts

ITS ABOUT TIME!!! L.
Its about time someone wrote something useful about investing. "Juggling Dynamite" takes a no nonsense view of the realities and pitfalls confronting individual investors, especially the inherent conflicts of interest they face when having to seek advice from the "Investment Sales Industry". An easy read with great real life examples. Well done Ms. Park!! L. Barrie.

A "must-read" for any true mystery lover! Outstanding!
This book was one of the best reading experiences I've had in a long while, bar none! Anthony Bidulka has quickly become one of my top 5 authors and once you've read "Flight of Aquavit" you'll know why. First of all, I absolutely LOVE (!!) the lead character, Russell Quant. This character is so well-developed I feel as though I actually know this man, from his little quirks to his dry sense of ...

This book is much needed and long overdue
I am so glad I found this book. This book is practical, informative, and gives a voice to insomniacs. The research in this book is very thorough, and the personal perspective balances out scientific information with human experience. I have been disappointed and frustrated with the medical community's treatment of insomnia, and it was such a relief to read that I am not the only one. In fact, ...
Pray for Us Sinners

Another story about the "troubles"
I have read a number of books about the conflict in Northern Irleand, some fiction, some not. The best story I have read is "Field of Blood" by Gerald Seymour. However "Prya for Us Sinners" is a realistic protrayal of the devious ways all parties to the conflict operate. It is a short novel, and quickly read. The author shows that there are really no "good guys" in this battle, and trust is ...

A Wonderful Adventure
In Stain of the Berry, Anthony Bidulka's fourth Russell Quant mystery, yet again, our favorite gay detective is on a rollicking adventure taking him from his Canadian hometown of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to Vancouver, British Columbia to the Arctic Circle of all places and even a city called Moose Jaw. Only with a Bidulka novel does the reader really get taken to places you've likely never been ...

the literature of being
At Last There is Nothing Left to Say is Matthew Good's (of The Matthew Good Band fame) first, and perhaps last, foray into the world of the written word. At Last There is Nothing Left to Say is not a complete novel, nor a series of novella, but rather, a collection of short 1-10 page stories of fictious accounts of Matthew's life and narratives of events in the lives of a host of characters. The ...

Mathew Styranka
Insomniac Press, 2001
Thought provoking
I found this book grabbed my interest and I couldn't put it down until I read it twice. The appeal of this book lies in the author's ability to translate his pursuit of the fullfilment of his fetish into the universal condition of humanity. It makes you re examine your search for happiness and materialism. It illustrates the truth in the age old cliche "beware of what you ask for because you ...

Terri Clark
Insomniac Press, 2000
Wonderfully insigtful !
"Phases & Stages" is a very intersting book because it shows a different side of what it's like to be a country music artist. Terri writes about everything, from her concerts to travelling to making records to appearing on awards shows, it's all in the book! With Terri's sense of humor and passion for music, it's a very easy read and gives you a sneak peek inside the life of Terri Clark.

Great Middle School Book!
S. R. Martin does a great job of writing quick, captivating mysteries that will grab your middle schooler's attention. Great for kids who are struggling readers and are overwhelmed at the thought of a thick chapter book. Also, great for read-a-loud.
The Lover's Tongue: A Merry Romp Through the Language of Love and Sex

Fun, sexy and laugh-out-loud funny
Have you ever wondered where the word vagina comes from? Me neither, but after reading Mark Morton's new book, The Lover's Tongue: A Merry Romp Through the Language of Love and Sex, I can tell you. Vagina is a Latin word, which means sheath, or scabbard-basically a holster for a sword. Pretty vivid imagery, huh? After reading Morton's book, I can assure you that the imagery becomes even racier ...

A Lyrical Mystery
"I learned that nothing is yours until it's yours, and that you make it yours by taking it, protecting it and hiding it," says Myx Amens, a uniquely talented 14-year-old foster kid living in Miracle, Massachusetts. In Dave Diotalevi's debut novel, Miracle Myx, we encounter 42 hours in the life of Myx as he investigates a series of murders. There's a seminal chapter in this twisty mystery of ...
