Dear Reader, March 20, 2009

A neglected child, a nimby professional's wife, a doctor, and a painter.


Sad conclusions to the attempts at manipulation.

Brudage's novel is outstanding - I'll be reading all of her works.

Dear Reader, February 2, 2009

Dogs are such great teachers. They teach us to be patient and they teach us about unconditional love. They teach us about what is right and what is fair and how we can be better people.

Blue Christmas by Mary Kay Andrews
Blue Christmas

Dear Reader, January 20, 2009

Mary Kay Andrews is always a delight to read.
Weezie manages to pull Christmas together at her shop and at home in spite of the mysterious missing items from her shop, Jethro's escapes, and Daniel's Grinch-like attitude. It's all wrapped up in humor with a sprinkle of recipes and a dollop of romance.

Agent Pender is out of retirement and as sharp as ever. Has he found true love at last? I can't wait to read more. And Marley, will he grow up to be an agent too?
