Books I've Read

I enjoyed reading this very much. I REALLY appreciate the short sections so that I could rest! The story of Indigo and Cloud was perhaps my favorite. Little Stone was a crack-up!

These stories were just as good as volume 1! Jade and Moon finally have a clutch!

Flying beings, that's what we got here.

The Raksura are on another expedition to checkout a Founder city.

Well, we got Fell. And the Half-Fell. And those dudes that want to kill everyone. It's a mess.

The Books of the Raksura #2, I read somewhere. Good story, I read it over several days, with one massive marathon session on the last days. I only noticed one "raised eyebrow"...

The Books of the Raksura #3. The story moves right along, and is quite interesting. I went to the bag-o-books to get the next one, but I don't have it yet! Yikes!

One measure of a book might be how many times it brought me to tears. This one had me sniffling quite a few times.

I've been captivated by the cover of this book for several years, and so decided to finally read it. I found it alternating sad, funny, poignant, threatening, and depressing. I liked it, but it seems maybe a little more YA than middle school. I guess the period of pot smoking was important to the story, but I wished the author had left out the one f**K, three bi**chs, four d**kheads, one g*dd*m*ed, and maybe the one kiss*ss. And it seemed the protagonist was having her period every other chapter.

I only read The Day Of the Locust, Miss Lonely Hearts, and A Cool Million. Did not care for Day or Lonely, but I did like Million.

Alek and Deryn (Mister Sharp) help the revolution in Istanbul (not Constantinople!). Deryn has romantic feelings towards Alek.

Last book in the Leviathan series. Deryn and Alek save the world, sort of, and kiss.

Deryn Sharp disguises her girlish self as joins the British Air Service as a boy. Prince Alek goes on the run after his parents are assassinated in Serbia. Zeppelins, fabricated animals, steampunk. Book one of a trilogy.

Tally just can't wait until she turns 16 and become a Pretty in this future story of a Utopian world. First book in a trilogy.

Orin Boyd goes undercover at the "Lucky 13th" to uncover corruption. 273 p.

Jack MIlls, "Poster Cop", investigates several murders in Nassau County, New York.

Officer Orin Boyd goes undercover at the special prison for police officers to find out about a suicide. Gritty.

A science fiction story, previously published under the pseud. Curt Clark in 1967, of a ex-jailbird who goes to the chaotic anarchy planet of Anarchaos (get it?) to find out how and why his brother died.

Country singer is accused of murder, magazine reporter is in Branson to do a story, so are the tabloid press. Very good.

Dortmunder once again doesn't get the big score as an Indian woman tries to get a share of a casino.
