The Master of All Desires by Judith Merkle Riley
dlhallin, January 18, 2007
This is my favorite Judith Merkle Riley book. It covers all kinds of ground, from the Italian Court, to Nostradamus, to Christianity, to Black Magic. She takes a fictional character and places them in a Historical place and time. If you like Phillippa Gregory, try Merkle Riley, I think you'll like her.(2 of 7 readers found this comment helpful)
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon
dlhallin, January 18, 2007
This book was great... then I got to the last section (the last 1/3), and it was a huge struggle to force myself to keep reading. It felt like the author felt like he had so many loose ends to tie up, there was little further character development. And that's what made the first 2/3's of the book so page-turning. So, its worth the read, just beware your "pages-per-hour" might diminish greatly toward the end. I just started skipping paragraphs.(11 of 23 readers found this comment helpful)
Scrum Bums: A Get Fuzzy Collection by Darby Conley
dlhallin, January 18, 2007
For anyone who loves Get Fuzzy, or those of you that may be unfamiliar with Rob, Satchel and Bucky, this is a great book. Parts of it will have you rolling on the floor, others will have you chuckling and smiling to yourself. I am a huge Get Fuzzy fan, and this is the first book that I got (along with the comic-a-day calendar). I am planning to work now to complete my collection. For those of you with a cat(s) and/or dog(s), you will sit there thinking, "hey, my pet does that too!!!" (or if they could you knew they would).(3 of 8 readers found this comment helpful)
