Books I've Read

Ursula get smallpox while living in Montana at the stagecoach stop her parents manage. She has to overcome her anxiety about her scars. Nice little book.

A boy and a girl are taken by their families to a religious survivalist camp on a mountain when it is prophesied that the end of the world is coming.

The author has obviously spent a lot of energy constructing this story, but I don't have the energy to decipher it. Some parts I liked a lot (TAMMY, for one), but mostly I got lost in the text. I sure a lot of people will love this book, but it is not for me.

Johnny joins the Army COBRA unit and fights aliens invaders. Good story!

Jack becomes a slave to find out who betrayed the A'da.

Jack joins a mercenary group to get information about who betrayed the K'da,

Teen jack Morgan is on the lam, meets up with an alien warrior. They team up to right some wrongs. Good stuff.

Two groups of "aliens" are facing off in New York City when a Human couple get involved.

Jordan McKell is hired to pilot a strange starship to Earth.

A somewhat pissed-off fifteen-almost-sixteen-year-old Liz wakes up on a very odd cruised ship with no memory of how she got there. A charming, funny, and sometimes sad story of an afterlife. Big weeps, for me, near the end.

Another book I love by Ms. Zevin! A book store owner who lives on an island finds a young child his bookstore.
