Plastic Soup? Fullerenes and Buckyballs? Giant Meat Flowers? Talk about useless knowledge, this book is full of it! Resting somewhere between the Guinness Book of World’s Records and Ripley’s Believe It or Not, comes “All Facts Considered: The Essential Library of Inessential Knowledge,” a lightweight compendium of oddities and curiosities that will alternatively bore you or boggle the mind (depending on the topic) if you’re not careful. In dividing this ‘knowledge’ into three sections (Memory and History, Reason and Science, and Imagination, Poetry and Art), Malesky, an NPR research librarian, has assembled answers to questions you may have never thought to ask. For instance, do you know the difference between i.e. and e.g.? Or when National Dog Bite Prevention Week occurs? Or when Elvis last ‘left the building’? All this as well as zip code trivia, Shakespearian obscurities and the fact that the U.S. Army once used camels in the desert Southwest when horses and mules couldn’t take the heat, are all here for the taking – or leaving. Of course, most people are able to live their lives without worrying about such mundane and trivial matters, but if you need an inventory of some unusual info-morsels before your next cocktail party outing, you may want to bone up on a few of these juicy trivial tidbits. At 206 pages, it shouldn’t take long.

I really did like this book - so easy to read (I got through it in a day!), and I loved the language style and the way she wrote from Dora's point of view, and "Oscar" particularly. Really funny, realistic but also heart-warming and sincere characters. I do hope she writes more and more fiction.

I love Lena Kennedy novels! Normally I don't read books, but as one reviewer said "it's the kind of book that when you're done, you eant to start over again". I read her books a number of years ago, but kept every one of them for that reason....to read them all again some day.
A white man turns black and chronicles his experience traveling through the US South in the 1960s. Illuminating, heartbreaking and frighteningly relevant still.

CHARMING!! That is the word I thought about as I read this delightful book. The book is a series of letters written to Juliet, a writer, from residents of Guernsey Island in the North Sea about the German occupation during World War II. I didn't even know about Guernsey or the occupation until I read this book. I wasn't sure I liked the style of the book (only letters), but found it was fun to read between the lines about all the residents of the island and about Juliet and her editor. It was an easy read and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Nailed was everything I expected it would be: a light, fun read. I enjoyed the plot, though it was a bit predictable. One may identify with Mandy's character, since she wants to build houses under a field in which males usually work, and she is good at asserting the fact that there should be no difference in the way the opposite sexes are treated. For example, I admired her for being bold about her clothing choice when working at the construction (a bathing suit with shorts) and how she defended her right to wear it. Clearly, she is not afraid to speak up. We find much more about her as the story progresses: how she has never had a boyfriend, how she has a romance-novel-loving best friend named Cam, etc. (it is so funny that Cam had to be the one to tell her she's in a love triangle) That is the main part of this story: the triangle's development. We know Boston is taking a break from relationships, having broken off an unpleasant one, and that he loves to read. A.J., a bit older than Mandy, was gluttonous and funny, but he also had a similar problem with an earlier relationship. With all three characters working at the construction site, the "triangle" was so fun to read about. Again, I thought it was obvious whom Mandy would choose, but her character developed well with little realizations along the way. However, the other two points of the triangle did not seem fully drawn out. I felt that there should have been more to their stories.
