Doctor Who novelist and journalist for the UK’s Radio Times Griffiths follows-up his coming-of-age as a DW-nerd, Dalek I Loved You, with this second book. However, this is less a memoir (although there are some personal tidbits scattered throughout) and more a travelogue recounting Nick and his family’s trips through England to visit roughly two dozen sites where Classic and New Who have been filmed. The best part of this is his website that he refers to throughout, where he has uploaded photos that he took of the many quarries, estates, and back-alleys. Not to mention his recollections and re-viewings of many of the episodes that he made right before hitting their filming locations, the hilarious but all-too-brief appearances by his wife and son, and his unabashed enthusiasm for the Doctor. However, it comes across as a hastily written book that was pushed to premature completion by his publisher after the success of Dalek I Loved You. That is, the narrative feels scattered and unfocused as times, as he haphazardly includes flashbacks, commentary on married life, the death of this mother, and other barely tangential thoughts. With a better editor and more time – not to mention including a color photo pages inserted in the center -- this would have been a better book.

This is one of the most influential books I've ever read. I own multiple copies and I've read it many times. Murchie spent 18 years writing it. He illustrated it by hand. Every page has its own title. I've never read a book so lovingly created. He makes hard science read like poetry.

Enjoyed this 2nd book in the series. I didn't really like that a lot of it took place in the woods. I like when the rest of the characters are actively involved in the plot line. Just a personal preference. But I am enjoying the series...

Mrs. Pollifax is a cute little-old-lady CIA agent who is whisked away from her garden club to try to locate a missing person in Syria. It's a fun, clean story with interesting geographical, historical and anthropological details, so you feel like you learned something on the way. For mystery lovers who would rather ride the carousel than the roller coaster.

A Christmas present from a friend that I found to be a relaxing, enjoyable read though the backdrop of Sherman's march through the South was anything but!

"Terrible Honesty: Mongrel Manhattan in the 1920's" is a perceptive and interesting cultural analysis of American Modernism in what Gertrude Stein described as the "the world's first twentieth century city." The book is full of both intriguing anecdotes and perceptive, if sometimes overly broad, analysis. Among the cast of characters that she draws on to make her arguments are W. E. B. Du Bois, Harry Houdini, Dorothy Parker, Edward Steichen, William James, Billy Wilder, Gertrude Stein, Jean Toomer, Langston Hughes, Hart Crane, Bessie Smith, Irving Berlin, Al Jolson, Ethel Waters and Groucho Marx. Central to her argument are two processes that she sees as essential to the rise of Modernism. The first is the "mongrelization" of American Culture. Douglas persuasively argues that New York in the twenties saw the first significant cultural interaction between African-Americans, new immigrant arrivals from Europe (particularly Jewish immigrants) and white intellectuals and artists. The rise of mass media and popular culture only fueled the fire. Douglas most skillfully traces this phenomenon in the literary and musical arenas and is somewhat less successful when dealing with the plastic arts. Douglas also argues that, during the period from the end of World War I up until the beginning of the Great Depression, there was a profound rejection of Victorian society, dominated by a feminizing power, represented most typically by the temperance and suffrage movements, both of them led by women, as well as by the idealistic foreign policy of Woodrow Wilson and the "crusading matriarchal ethos" of figures like Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of Christian Science. Douglas sees the twenties as a period of countervailing "masculinization" of society, a process that was facilitated by both men and women. I really found this book enjoyable, informative and stimulating. I think she makes her case well; although, as is often the case with cultural histories that contain an overarching explanatory framework, she sometimes seems to over-extend her arguments.

Not bad for an early effort. Very readable and probably not to be taken too seriously. I sometimes like a bit of pulp fiction from time to time. I'll probably try some more of these at a future date and see how Butcher's writing develops.
