This book lets you realise that the stereotype we generally have about Asians and their culture have been askewed by the writings of individuals who only sawm or want to see to see, one side of an entire culture.

I really enjoyed this book. It was hard to put down. I was always waiting for what was going to happen next. A little predictable, but a great book nonetheless.

This is a collection of short stories by Clive Barker. If you enjoy his the dark imagination that has gone into his other works, you will enjoy this as well.

A really good book. John Berendt uses his decription style from the Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil to bring Venice alive in the same way.

This book really shows how "The Help" was treated by their employers even though slavery had been made illegal almost 100 years before.

If you enjoy Kathy Reichs' Temperence Brennen series, you should enjoy this as well. The main character, Adelia, is doctor to the death, an early form of forensic anthropology. A very good read.

A very good book book, very hard to put down. If somebody wanted a glimpse into the mind of a disturbed individual along the lines of Jeffery Dalmer, this is definately the book. The twist at the end is a little disappointing, but it is a great book none the less.
