The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town by John Grisham
The Innocent Man: Murder and Injustice in a Small Town

Teresa Vaughan, May 1, 2008

I began reading this book without reading the inner flap, and so not realizing it was a true story. I was even more intrigued when I did realize it. Well written and appalling, this is a good example of The System gone unbelievably wrong. A persuasive argument against the death penalty, this story could sway even a staunch proponent.

The Hearts of Horses by Molly Gloss
The Hearts of Horses

Teresa Vaughan, March 20, 2008

The Hearts of Horses is an engaging look into small town life at the turn of the last century, when the U.S. was entering into WWI. (It has a sort of Waltons feel to it.) At 20, Martha leaves an unhappy home to practice her passion: bronc busting--rather out of line with the gender roles of the time. She puts up in the barn of a local couple, and we get introduced to many of the ranchers and farmers as Martha works their horses. I really enjoyed the flavor of Molly Gloss' writing; there is an honesty to it that I find refreshing.

Darkest Evening of the Year 1ST Edition Signed by Dean Koontz

Teresa Vaughan, January 16, 2008

Love dogs? Love a good thriller? This is the book for you! Koontz has captured the bond humans are lucky enough to share with their four-legged furry brothers quite nicely, and thrown in lots of fast paced twists and turns as well. One of his better recent novels.

Koontz's most psychologically frightening novel. This one will make you think twice before seeking a therapist!

Whispers by Dean Koontz

Teresa Vaughan, December 13, 2007

This was the first Koontz title I read, and I was way too young to be that scared! Whispers introduces one of the best bad guys of Koontz's long career. If you like horror, this title is a must read.
