Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes by Vickie Smith
Miss Vickie's Big Book of Pressure Cooker Recipes

Kate Deeks, November 30, 2009

Miss Vickie's website is THE authority on everything related to pressure cooking. Have perused the book and can't wait to try recipes. Timing is very important in pressure cooking- and she does a good job on outlining it with variables.

The Ghost in Love by Jonathan Carroll
The Ghost in Love

Kate Deeks, November 14, 2008

Read Jonathan Carroll. Just don't start with this book. If you have read Carroll's work before, you may be surprised to find some of the usually sparkle lacking from "The Ghost in Love." The characters are excellent, the story moves along, and it has the magical realism and Carroll-world elements I love- but this book feels slightly less well crafted than his other work. Read away!
