I made the mistake of reading this after watching the Showtime series. I might have liked it more had I not kept anticipating plot points from the series that didn't happen in the book. It's a great set-up, and I love books that attempt to capture a place like Lindsay attempts with Miami. Dexter is a funny, strangely likable killer. Unfortunately, the series, I felt, was much more complex and clever, especially with the portrayal of Dexter's sister. I lent this to a friend, however, who has never seen the show, and she loved it.

Story of an over-the hill gay man living in Paris during the '80's and early '90's. He is HIV positive, though asymptomatic. He falls in love with a man half his age, who contracts AIDS and dies. Well-written story, some very good observations/descriptions, up in the air ending that's somehow appropriate, as his life continues even with his friends dying.

These Jack Reacher books are real page turners and usually they are faultless for that genre, but this one was so unnecessarily brutal I wish I would have skipped it.

i know it's not fiction, but this book is thoroughly useful, and the interviews with various mixing technicians couldn't be more helpful. It's amazing--you can read about how a famous engineer mixed the strings on a whitney houston album (as in, how he panned the strings, the amount of delay added to make it stereo, the model of reverb tank used, the specific compressor added to the mix buss), and then you can listen to the song and actually hear what he's talking about!!! It's a wonderful first step for anybody interested in this stuff.

This is not my most favorite Jodi Picoult book, but I love all of her books. I really really enjoyed it and read it in two days.

This is "The Devil Wears Prada" for hipsters. The author was an assistant at Jane magazine for many years. The novel is written from the perspective of Jill White, a thinly disguised version of Jane Pratt. She's a alternative hippie girl who grew up in a commune, went on to Ivy league schools, and then edited a quirky magazine for teen girls in her early 20s. She's a media wunderkid featured in Time. She gets really famous and becomes friends with other famous people. It's a fun read, but there doesn't seem to be enough tension to make for a very exciting plot. [This improves as the book goes on and the corporate folks get more feisty and awful. Then you find yourself rooting for Jill.] There are evil corporate bosses who keep trying to make the magazine more mainstream, and Jill doesn't have time to keep up with her old friends. That's about it. It's also annoying that they made the cover look EXACTLY like "The Devil Wears Prada." Oh, chick lit cliches, go away! Even the title isn't really representative of the novel. I have a feeling the author didn't pick it. The book is more about publishing than fashion. The book is about how a magazine that was meant to be unconventional, honest, feminist, and fun got corrupted by the machine of mainstream media. Sadly, it's a true story. I do think that Jane Pratt started off with the best of intentions for her magazine. Unfortunately, it turned into a fluffy piece of crap. I never really liked Jane. It seemed ditzy and without substance. It never lived up to what it was trying to be. And yet the announcement this week that the magazine is folding does make me a bit sad. At least it was a mainsteam mag for women that was trying to be a bit more savvy than the others. RIP Jane! I'll go back to reading my newest issue of Bust now. ;)

Great quick read! Loved that it was reminiscent of Rear View Window. I recommend reading the author's note first - there's interesting info about how she structured the chapters and what her inspiration was.
