Hard Eight
by Janet Evanovich

book cover


I continue to be amazed by how effectively this author can combine an intense level of humor and violence, and maybe that is what draws me to her books. In this book, one of her earlier ones, Stephanie Plum and her on-again off-again boyfriend Joe Morelli are off-again. This means Stephanie is fee to enjoy her time with Ranger the mysterious man she sometimes partners with. And yes, there is the expected destruction of a car, and a stun gun that only works when you don’t want it too; all the things we look forward to in her books.

The People Who Eat Darkness

Pretty grim reading - suggested to me by my son who knows I like horror , this is a horror like story but it is true crime - could have been edited down a few hundred pages but the story was written in a journalistic fashion .

I enjoyed this book so much that I bought a copy for my daughter-in-law who is an elementary school teacher. This is just such a nice story about a small town where everyone knows everyone and they all come together to be there for one another despite their individual differences. This is a nice summer read and it will make you feel good.

The Lions Of Fifth Avenue

Now here is a genre that I would not normally read, but I have read two of her books recently and enjoyed both very much. And what book could be better for a bibliophile than his one that takes place in a library? The story bounces back and forth between two time frames and gives you a look challenges faced by a family who used to live in and care for the NY public library and the current challenges faced by the library’s special collection curators. I learn so much by reading her books.

The Regulators

While, in the end, I loved this book, I felt like it started in the middle of something that had been going on, and I fell a bit adrift. But it’s one of those stories that explains things after the fact, and it’s worth it so you just have to hang in there. Weird story about an autistic boy who becomes inhabited by something evil. Lots of violence, so you can’t be squeamish. The amazing thing is that the ending of this otherwise brutal book is actually very tender.

The Feather Thief
by Kirk Wallace Johnson

book cover


The author of this true-life story does an amazing job of integrating the development of the “Origin of the Species” theory with the history of feathers and their use in fashion and fishing. He does this through his investigation of a feather theft from a museum. He describes the history and passion surrounding fly ties for fishing and although I have no interest in this, I found the overall story fascinating. And it is interesting to see how a young man can get caught up in the intensity and passion felt by lure tiers which ultimately ruins his life.

The Monk of Mokha

Let me start off by saying that I am not a fan of biographies for the simple reason that not everything in a person’s life will be interesting,,,or so I thought until I read this book. Just about every minute of this book kept me engaged and wondering what would happen next. And to say that it is about an immigrant from Yemen who is working as a doorman and want to start a business importing coffee from Yemen doesn’t do it justice. It is the amazing story of a young man committed to improving the life of coffee farmers in his home country and of someone who will literally do anything to accomplish that. Excellent read!
