I liked it. Never heard anything like it before.

My introduction to Sookie Stackhouse, Vampire Bill and the whole gang in Bon Temps, Louisiana. I must admit, I found it light fun, and read the book in a day's sitting. There's a river of paranormal stuff out there, and most of it is pretty awful. Some is interesting because the thoughts and development of the world in which the stories are set, some is character driven, and some is just an excuse for kinky sex scenes. Sookie's world is one where vampires are able to come out of the coffin (but not out of the dark) and have moved into a more legitimate recognized aspect of society. With the invention of an artificial blood substance (tickled me that it came in different "flavors" of blood type) there was less of a risk of an encounter with a vampire leaving a human somewhat "parched" shall we say? I guess congress also figured out how to tax the dead and that made things more legitimate for the vampires. Anyhow, despite the murders etc, the story was kind of charming. Sookie's "disability" (she is telepathic and can hear the thoughts of others) was a nice touch. I totally adore Sam, and was on to his secret well before it was revealed. I also got a chuckle out of dumb-as-a-stump Vampire "Bubba". Nice way to mix pop culture in there! On to the next book! (Here is a BookCrossing thread on the books.

Heroine dislikes hero on sight, he decides she's some kind of gold-digging slut. He blackmails her into bed. She acknowledges that he is basically paying her father to have sex with her. They have sex. He says things like "Take off all your clothes or I'll take them off for you" and "You agreed to be my mistress, and the only choice you have left is the one I just gave you". Rather than revolted (my reaction), she's apparently without any qualms, and strips down and pirouettes. After stupendous sex (a 'one-way ticket to the stars'), she's saying things 'teasingly' and commenting that he's a 'magnificent lover and she only wishes she had known what she was missing, so she hadn't waited so long.' Cliches like the woman commenting on the spectacular view, and the man, gazing at her, agreeing, create glaringly obvious signposts to the romance, but instead of establishing a convincing positive relationship, they just bore. A few romps in the sack and one dinner date after the initial blackmail conversation, and she's getting chest pains (at least, I think that's what "pain pierced like a knife in her heart" means) from a bottle of perfume and a black hairband in his medicine cabinet. Because of course she's in love. And of course he must be cheating on her. The keen intellect that got her the job as a researcher at the British Museum is thus frequently on display. /sarcasm. When she gives him a jealousy-fuelled lecture on his alley cat morals, he experiences a few moments of chagrin, but then remembers he has another woman in Milan, and shrugs it all off. Indiscriminate whoring is so hawt. But I'm too harsh, because of course he won't be able to do it with someone other than the heroine. And he'll be busy looking distracted and being insufferable to all of his underlings. He's the hero - he's got conventions to fulfill! If he doesn't do those stereotypical things, how will we know he's in looovvve? The sex-for-money element is so blatant and dealt with as if it's not problematic at all, the characters written so completely unattractively, the dialogue so clunkily (probably not a word), that this book is just leaving me with a sour taste in my mouth. I like Harlequin Presents - I like the tendency to be melodramatic and I often even enjoy the alpha-hero-who-has-to-learn-to-not-be-a-jerk, and I can tolerate a secret baby, but this book exemplifies the worst of what can happen when a laundry list of conventions are bundled together, without well-written characters and plot.

This is a book about how the concept of time changed in the early twentieth century. It draws from a wide variety of arts & humanities sources. It's one of those books that helps you imagine how different your world could be if you had different social constructs. That's useful for imaginative people.

4 star medical thriller (top 25% of the genre) with superior romantic suspense. Reads like the best episodes of ER ever. For my full review, see ScienceThrillers.com

This book had such an impact on me after I heard the author speak in June of 2010. AS a result, I purchased copies for my entire family for Christmas and we are reading and discussing a chapter a month during 2011. When Kevin Hall's principles are put into practice, your life will take on greater purpose, meaning, direction and achievement. I love this book! The stories he shares to teach the principles are compelling and inspirational.

A quiet book, beautifully rendered. A special treat for a cook.

This was an interesting book, though, I didnt think it was nearly as good as Siddhartha. Though I'd definitely recommend it just about everyone simply because it's a quick read and has some fascinating points about life.
