We read this for bookclub and I didn't like it. For this particular book, Bellow needed an editor willing to make great use of cuts. In our discussions, the men preferred to writing and story to the women!

I enjoy most of Perez Reverte's work with Club Dumas and the Flanders Panel as favorites. This one with a 17th century Madrid setting, never grabbed me. Still, the writing is superb.

I enjoy Sheri Tepper's work. This one brings aspects of current religious fundamentalism to a pre 9/11 America.

I had heard very good things about Gaiman and Pratchett. Parts of this book are very funny, but some how I never finished this one!

This was my first Allende book - and I discovered it's really a young adult book. I enjoyed the writing and story telling, and I recommend this book for an adventurous teenager.

It helps to have read others in the Venus Diamond series before this one.

Fabulous recipes by James Beard. Unfortunately PBSwap lists Ann Cornelisen as the author; Amazon does not. Must have for those who regularly cook fish.

A very different perspective of Noah, his family, and the ark than I had ever imagined. A very amusing read!

Jasper Fforde has a great sense of humor and writes of an odd universe. It helps to know some Shakespeare. I laughed a lot while reading this book.

perhaps my favorite of the series - the initial book provides both the elements of science fiction/fantasy within a mystery.
