Wait, wait, wait
I am not going to buy Feafever (book 3) next month. Not because I don't like the series, but because it will make me hunger for the next book for one year AGAIN. I am totally hooked on these series. KMM can't write them fast enough. I guess the best thing is to wait for her to complete all five books, take a few days off from work, close the door, turn my off my phone and read them all in order ...
Confessions of a Shopaholic

Sophie Kinsella
Dell, 2003
Hilarious from beginning to end!
I picked this book up for a little light entertainment, and I was quite simply blown away by the talent of the author, Sophie Kinsella! I was captured by her story and main character from the very beginning. Becky Bloomwood is the essence of the compulsive shopper's dark side that lingers in all of us. (Well, maybe not all of us -- but it sure lingers in me!) Her plotting was intense! Every ...

John Grisham
Dell, 2008
Round Hole Meet Square Peg
Those who read this book thinking it's another typical Grisham novel will be sorely disappointed, but for those of us who rely on an author's writing skills and storytelling rather than pigeon-holing him into one genre will get a kick out of this heart-warming football story. Playing for Pizza takes the reader on a journey of personal growth and a true love of football. The main character, ...

John Grisham
Dell, 2007
Well researched documentation - remarkably written!
This real-life story is very emotional, rousing and compelling and in my opinion also very exciting. Even if you know the outcome already and the writing style isn't out for suspense. The nonfictional narration is constructed as a history of a criminal case and less intended as a thriller. In the English edition in midsection there are photographs of some participants which help a lot to put ...
The Appeal

John Grisham
Dell, 2008
Surprise! Surprise!
Lately it seems to be "the thing" to blame cancers and illnesses on large chemical companies dumping their waste. More often than not the Plaintiff wins and the company is sent packing like a dog with its tail ween its legs! In JohnGrisham"s splendid legal thriller" The Appeal it seems at first that that"s going to happen. However; Guess what? the defendant wins! The Appeal is left to the ...

A Fine Little Dictionary
The dictionary is very compact, yet has many entries and is a good value. The only way to improve it would be to add a visual alphabetical index.
The Gift of Fear

Gavin De Becker
Dell, 1999
The book could save your life....
I recommend this book to more people than any other book and I am a reading addict. This book is already a classic and is required reading for anyone who wants to learn how to avoid violence and hooking up with a dangerous man. If you are in an abusive relationship, you need to read this book. If you are a parent then you ought to have your teens read this book. It could save their life. A ...
A Breath of Snow and Ashes
298 reviews
Diana Gabaldon
Dell, 2008
Satisfying, as usual
Gabaldon paints her books with thick color. Her characters are so well-developed that I feel I know them all very well. A Breath of Snow and Ashes closes some questions left from earlier volumes, and rounds out some character detail. I don't want to give anything away here, but it was a thoroughly satisfying read. Happily, it also leaves an opening for further Jamie/Clair volumes. After ...

Tara Janzen
Dell, 2008
Fast-paced, Non-stop Action Joyride!
Just when I'm certain Tara Janzen has written her best book ever, she surprises me with another one that's even better. Or it's just different. Or it's just that she's that talented. With her release of LOOSE and EASY, the third in her spin-off special ops series my Keeper Shelf is becoming crowded. Bad boy, Johnny Ramos, newly returned from a tour of duty in Afghanistan is waiting for his ...

Harlan Coben
Dell, 2002
LOVED LOVED LOVED
I took the day off and pulled this book off my shelf. Bought it YEARS ago, but never got around to reading it. I went to the UCLA writers weekend and heard Harlan speak in a writer's conversation and vowed to take time to read all the books I have bought of his that I never got around to read -and boy this was a good one! I'm not going to go into what I loved because there is so many reviews.... ...

Lee Child
Dell, 2008
One of the best Reacher novels.
Reacher ends up working for a likely drug importer for reasons of his own. The many plot twists/developments are unexpected, well done, and well placed--they are not there just for the sake of surprise. The baddest of the the bad guys are monsters, who may be too much even for Reacher. This is darker than the other Reacher novels, but I barely noticed because of its fast pacing and constant ...
The Enemy (Jack Reacher Novels)

Lee Child
Dell, 2005
Another Reacher classic
Another Lee Child classic. Pure fiction at its best, not too serious but entertaining to say the least. If you like this writer read Soft Target,and Soft Target 2 `Tank` by Conrad Jones, I read both on holiday they were hours of excitment on the sunbed!! Brilliant

Harlan Coben
Dell, 2003
excellent thriller
This is my first book by this author, and I enjoyed it very much. It's the story of Will Klein, a social worker in Manhattan whose life changed 11 years ago when his brother was accused of killing Will's ex-girlfriend. The story begins when Will's mother, dying of cancer, tells him that his brother (who's been missing and presumed dead for those 11 years), is alive. Shortly afterward, Will's ...

Great episode in the series
Another Reacher expedition, great fun, if your a fan of this guy try the `Soft Target` thrillers by Conrad Jones, or any Harry Bosch novels...all good stuff!!

Harlan Coben
Dell, 2008
Tremendous!
This was my 2nd MB novel to read, and they are just flat out fun. They are just as good as Coben's other books, but they are funnier and they have a much more positive outlook. This book is a quick read yet it still has a tremendous and well thought out storyline. I especially loved the end, when it all came back to tie to Myron. Tremendous.

Diana Gabaldon
Dell, 2002
Historical Adventure...I Love It
Diana Gabaldon is an amazing story teller. I really enjoyed this the fourth installment in the Outlander series. I don't know what I could say about this book that someone hasn't already said. I will add my two cents and say that I like the character Brianna. I think that it's important to put into perspective that she comes from a time when people aren't considered adults at the ripe old ...

Diana Gabaldon

Enthralled!
I just finished reading "The Fiery Cross" and I was totally enthralled with it from beginning to end. I, of course, have read the first four books. Twice actually. This one was my favorite. The other books are excellent and exciting. What I really like about "The Fiery Cross" is that it really digs into each of the characters. You really get to know each of them. Like them or not, they're ...
