Books I've Read

The life of a dog named Merle. Very excellent, and very weepy at the end.

Moon's survivalist father dies, so the young boy finds difficulty dealing with the society he know very little about.

The Scholastic edition does not suggest that this is book three of a series. Sarah lives in the Kalahari semi-desert with her zoologist-researcher father. Her mother died several months before. A motley group of teens are coming to stay for two week, possibly the beginning of a new source of funding for the research station. Things go badly. "Poachers", a horrific "disease", and a silver lion. Lots of action, I will give it that.

Girl growing up in the South. Pretty good. Bees!

Biographical book about a American doctor, Paul Farmer, who is saving TB patients, mostly in Haiti.

A Father Koesler mystery. Father find out who killed the Bishop. Number 16 in series. 266 p.

Father Koesler is in quandry...a murderer "confessed" to him, but he can't tell the police about it. Number 14 in series. 266 p.

The sins of the father are visited upon... The Pope is coming to town! Father Koesler moderates a forum and helps the police with a couple of murders. Number 17 in series, I wonder there are any priests left in Chicago! 272 p.

Father Koesler checks out a group of monks who have set up shop in Detroit and the "miracles" that seem to be happening. 312 p.

Father Koesler helps a priest accused of murder.

Father Koesler goes on vacation and we meet Father Tully. We meet Barbara Ullrich who tries to blackmale four men for paternity. Interesting.

A bomb explodes at the ceremony to admit a married Anglican priest into the Catholic priesthood.

A tangled web of relationships that leads to a death. Father Koesler is right there, of course. No. 22 in series.

This book cracked me up when I was a teen. Now, not quite as much, but still some funny stuff.

Writer guy goes back to stay at his vacation retreat after his wife dies. Wierd stuff happens. Mostly pretty good book.

Really enjoyed reading most of the book, the ending seemed a bit off to me.

Moral: Be nice to people.

Read while in hospital, maybe that's why I didn't get it. First part was good, seemed disconnected from rest of book.

A whole bunch of short stories that I'm thinking I may have read twenty years ago. Some pretty darn good ones in there. King's non-fiction piece about his son's Little League team was great, I don't even like baseball!

Nicely written, of course, and not too long. I don't know if I want to read the rest of the series, though.
