Excellent Teacher resource
James Martine clarifys the important points that need to be conveyed to the high school student. He will also bring clarity to the teacher struggling for the best way into the play. Particularly useful are ideas about John Proctor as a tragic hero. Twayne publishes consistently solid criticism for the high school teacher and serious student.

Fast paced
This is my kind of book. It was fast paced and exciting. I couldn't put it down. She gets you hooked in the first few pages and doesn't let go! If you like mystery novels, like the Janet Evanovich series, you'll love this one. Sam and Stephanie (Evanovich's main character) would be fast friends. She keeps you guessing until the last minute. Another thing that I liked was that there was no ...

I SEE THIS ONE ON THE BIG SCREEN!!!
I have to give praises to Keith Lee Johnson for this original story. This book puts you on the edge, just like any good movie would; I could not wait for the ending. The suspense was there and surprises as well. A well written novel and a lot of imagination went into this story. I do not want to give away any details, just pick up the book. You will not be disappointed. This is the fifth ...

Looking for a modern-day Marlowe?
Jacob Asch is about as close to Marlowe as it gets. When I read crime fiction (especially first-person stories about private investigators set in LA!), I'm continually making comparisons with Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe. So far, I've found two worthy successors to Chandler: Crumley and Lyons. Lyons' execution is nearly flawless. The story never sags, from its opening in which a new ...

False Pretense, by Joel Chasen
WOW! This is an incredible page-turner! Exciting from the first page. I have lived in Germany and Chasen's got the streets of Berlin down pat! A very entertaining, exciting and altogether "gen-u-ine" espionage thriller plus some pretty good guesses about our world's future, if in fact the terrible observations the author has made comes true.

Pretense - the best!!!!
Lori Wick has outdone herself with this one. A poignant story of two sisters and their journey of growing up. Pretense has enough story to be entertaining, enough lovable characters to be interesting, and enough Christian values to be compelling. If you had to pick one novel with which to be stranded on an island, this would be the one!

Fun, Sexy and Smart - Everything a romance should be!
It has been a LONG time since I have read a historical romance novel this good! Ms. Lingefelt has captured the spirit of Regency England and combined it with intricately woven characters who come to life. The heroine's subtle humor had me rolling, and the hero had my heart pounding. Even the perfectly crafted villain surprised me. This is definitely a keeper book, one that I will look forward ...

That's what they ALL say.
I'm curious when a writer drops off the page after one novel. What gives? Do they hide out in another genre using a different pen name? So they just have the one story to tell? There is so little gay escapist fiction (mystery/adventure/romance) that I'm always sorry when it's a case of 'that's all he wrote.' Not that PRETENSE OF INNOCENCE is a good mystery novel . A kind of ...
