Truly outstanding work on the Union Army of Tennessee, first under Grant, then Sherman. The campaign to take Vicksburg is especially exciting, and reads like a novel. Gives a good feel for the operational level of war.

Rarely has a book elicited such a strong reaction from me with the first page. I hated it and loved it at the same time, though the love won out in the end. It was both beautiful and terrifying to see love exist in a world without hope

God is not dead, he has merely been exiled to an extraterrestrial planet. Unique. Another example of Dick's mad genius.

Rob made some good points early on in the book that I agree with such as the bible was written a long time ago by people and has to be taken in the context of when it was written. There is no such thing as taking the bible literally you have to interpret it. This explains why there are so many different denominations of Christianity. Christians need to show they are following Christ by there actions and not have an agenda of trying to convert people.
Well, it's pretty...? That's all that counts, right? What is plot any good for, anyway? This one gets two stars for the artwork. Plot counts for nothing.

I read most of the Ross MacDonald Lew Archer novels when I was a kid, and in the back of the Bantam editions the "About the Author" page noted MacDonald was "... Kenneth Millar in private life." Those sections also mentioned that his wife, Margaret Millar, was also a mystery writer. I kept an eye peeled for her work as well, but in the book stores and news stands I frequented, nary a Margaret Millar title showed up. (I've mentioned before those days before the interwebs when you were at the mercy of paperback spinners and used book stores to find books.) Happily I ran across an edition of A Stranger in My Grave (1960) a couple of years back, and I was reminded of that when her name kept coming up in relation to Gillian Flynn's brilliant page turner Gone Girl. Grave certainly feels a little like a literary cousin of Gone Girl. It's a domestic thriller that revolves around an interesting quandary from Daisy Harker, a young wife, who in 1959 or so dreams of a tombstone with her name on it, and a death date four years earlier. Dec. 2, 1955. Someone, Daisy reckons, must have done her psychic harm on that date: "...No interpretation is necessary. It's all quite clear. On Dec. 2, 1955, something happened to me that was so terrible it caused my death. I was psychically murdered." Her husband Jim would rather she leave that notion alone. So would her mother, who's supported by Jim's generosity and thus has a vested interest in the couple's domestic bliss. Daisy's determined however, and when her deadbeat father, Stan Fielding, calls for help in paying off a bail bondsman, she sees an avenue to find answers. His bail bondsman, Steve Pinata, has detective skills as well. He agrees to reconstruct that relevant Dec. 2, and it soon becomes clear Daisy's buried a few things deep in her memory. She recalls snow-capped mountains but not the reason she left the clinic where she worked that year, and something's up with Jim and his lawyer. Her dad Stan Fielding is up to something as well, hitching back into town to look into the world of a waitress named Juanita. She's volatile and may be connected to the man really buried in the grave Daisy dreamed about. Swirling pieces converge and begin to make more and more sense as the pages turn. A Stranger In My Grave is not so much a novel of detection as a tale of mystery and murder that allows events to unfold once the trigger of memory is pulled. On the journey, Daisy moves outside the protective parameters of Jim and her mother who have controlling agendas. The truths are twisted and startling as they are revealed. I suppose the memory loss is a conceit that the reader is expected to accept a little too easily, and there are a few other abrupt emotional developments for characters, but ultimately Stranger offers a compelling study of family, deception, dark deeds and a domestic era that's at times appalling yet also familiar.
