The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K Le Guin
The Left Hand of Darkness

Emily Lehman, November 11, 2008

I was told this book was a classic and that I had to read it, so I wasn't expecting to enjoy it that much. But I couldn't put it down. The story is touching and compelling, and most of all human. Just a really beautiful book.

An Irish Country Doctor by Patrick Taylor

Such a charming and sweet book in a perfect rainy day and curl up kind of way. Each chapter has an amusing episode and the pages fly past. I'm a sucker for small town irish stories, and this is my new favorite.

American Sign Language: A Teacher's Resorce Text on Grammar and Culture (Green Book Series) by Charlotte Baker-shenk
American Sign Language: A Teacher's Resorce Text on Grammar and Culture (Green Book Series)

Emily Lehman, June 24, 2008

Since American Sign Language is a visual language it's one of those things you kind of have to really see to appreciate, and this book is probably best used in a class setting. That said it is one of the best, and really helps in a natural way to get a feel for the grammar and flow of this beautiful language. I would definitly reccomed it.

The King of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner
The King of Attolia

Emily Lehman, May 1, 2008

This is a wonderful story, and the conclusion of one of my very favorite series. Megan Whalen Turner has a real gift, her fictional world reads like believable history. And her characters always surprise you.
