  Desert

  by J. M. G. Le Clezio

  • Rated 4 stars

  Louisa van der Luyden wrote:
  In the beginning there were the nomads, men and women whose faces and bodies were tinted blue with indigo and sweat... Those looking for a fast moving plot will be disappointed, but Désert is a beautiful novel full of dreamy prose; a journey, an unromanticised glimpse of life in the Sahara, deep in the desert where only the nomads can live....

  Between the Lines

  by Jodi Picoult, Samantha van Leer

  • Rated 5 stars

  Mrs. Janice B wrote:
  This book was very different than other books I have read. Jodi Picoult and her daughter do a great job of keeping the reader in suspense. I would mention that it gets a little slow and repetitive in the middle of the book and the conclusion was a bit "short". Otherwise, I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading other books written by these authors.

  Fey.

  by Mike Lee

  • Rated 5 stars

  Dave H wrote:
  "Fey." by Mike Lee is a wild romp that bridges the gaps between faerytales, mystery, and science fiction and on top of all that it is just plain fun to read. Quirky, a bit peculiar, and entertaining, I was totally entranced by the richly developed characterizations, immersive settings, and brisk pacing. This wonderful story is for readers who love to read for the pure joy of discovery! Kudo's to Mike Lee and his brilliant narrative. A must read for fans of the sci/fi fantasy genre!!!

  NOS4A2

  by Joe Hill

  • Rated 5 stars

  Ange wrote:
  Every now and again, a book has the power to haunt you, to become a part of something so commonplace or mundane that you know you'll never view something quite the same again. And so it is with me and NOS4A2. Because of this book, I know that one day I'll hear a Christmas carol and get a chill that has nothing to do with winter....
