I Am America (and So Can You!) (Abridged) by Stephen Colbert

C, October 11, 2007

Unbelievable. Truly remarkable. Not only can I not hawk the printed version over this clearly superior audio format - replete with the dulcet tones of an author who knows that books should be heard, and only seen on grandiose coffee table displays - but at a discount? Powells, you owe Stephen!!

Sweet Land: New and Selected Stories by Will Weaver

C, January 2, 2007

This collection has the story, "A Gravestone Made of Wheat", from which the movie "Sweet Land" was based and is a very rewarding read at a slow pace.

The Mad Scientists' Club by Bertrand R. Brinley

C, October 16, 2006

I read this over and over as a kid, and as a girl, I was way jealous of all the fun the boys got to have. This is a great series - more "Henry Reed, Inc." than "Encyclopedia Brown".

The Loch by Steve Alten

C, October 16, 2006

I've always been a fan of cryptozoology and Loch Ness is like the Holy Grail. Alten has thoroughly researched his material, accents the suspense with ancient journal entries, and weaves a tale as fun as "Jaws" - all in a delightful Scottish brogue.
