This was the September First Look selection - and even though it was a hard story to read, it was written well and the narrative was outstanding, the characters good, well let my review speak for itself.

Debbie,

This is almost spooky.  I couldn't get my review for The Wake of Forgiveness to post to the reveiw section.  Upon reading your review here, it reads almost identical to the one I wrote, but could not post.  Good call.

Outside Wonderland 

Great read!  Below is my review.  I read almost the entire thing in one day, finished the next day.  It doesn't release until March 2011, so I suggest putting it on a must-read list so you don't forget.  I will be looking for more by this author in the future.

Hi Susan, I was skeptical about this book because I really didn't care for her last one, but she is one of my all time favs so I gave it a read. Stay tuned to the next few days because my review of this will go up sometime soon. I also didn't want it to end and you're also right that it will please a number of different genre lovers.

Glad you liked it Deb.,I know she has been such a Popular Author,but it does seem with "Maybe This Time" she has spread her wings,so to speak....She is now one of my faves as well..I will look for your review...Susan

[dhaupt]

Look no further Susan and the rest of you

If you want that feel good, slightly woo-wooish kind of read with a HEA that is hard earned and well deserved, a mystery full of mayhem and murder, a well written piece of literature, well look no farther

Maybe This Time 

is all you need

Here is my review on my blog

enjoy!!!

Here's my latest recommendation. It's the latest spin off series from John Sandford's award winning best selling series staring that irreverent cop Lucas Davenport

This one stars another memorable copy Virgil Flowers, if you read the Prey series you'll know him, I love his character and this new series is one of a kind.

He's kind of Andy Taylor meets Columbo.

Here's my review of Bad Blood 

Bad Blood (Virgil Flowers Series #4)

I just read Philip Roth's new book:

Nemesis

  

It's about a wartime polio epidemic in the summer of 1944 and it's effect on Newark New Jersey's communities and children.

It's a very quick read and very interesting!

Thanks Eadie, it looks really good

[becke_davis]

These were both really good:

Fear the Worst 

Faithful Place 

This is a lighter story, but I LOVED it:

Twenties Girl

 

[dhaupt]

A must read for lovers not only of Sandra Brown but of great romantic suspence

Tough Customer 

Here's the review

http://thereadingfrenzy.blogspot.com/2010/10/review-of-tough-customer.html

[pjpick]

The Warmth of Other Suns   I would love to write a review on this one but frankly, nothing I could say would do it justice. What a wonderful piece of work! I saw Isabel Wilkerson interviewed on Q&A on CSPAN (don't judge, I have below basic cable and have very few watchable channels). I enjoy African American History and thought I might give it a try. I broke my rule of buying brand new hardbacks and am I glad I did! I was drawn in immediately and Wilkerson really gets you connected with the people's stories. If you enjoy history from the perspective of those who've experienced it, this is the book for you. I also think it would be a great choice for those who are in more intellectual type book clubs (mine is not, unfortunately).

pjpick, I think you did a great job on a review when you said "I broke my rule of buying brand new hardbacks and am I glad I did! I was drawn in immediately and Wilkerson really gets you connected with the people's stories. If you enjoy history from the perspective of those who've experienced it, this is the book for you.

Great way to say what you thought and why!!
