I'm upping this to three stars because she mentioned Barbara Hambly and The Little White Horse.But honesty, if you are talking about dog books and you don't mention Albert Payson Terhune, there is something wrong with you.It's a little bit disorganized and the list descriptions are bit weird. I also...
"I live by what I call "the rule of fifty," which acknowledges that time is short and the world of books is immense. If you're fifty years old or younger, give every book about fifty pages before you decide to commit yourself to reading it, or give it up. If you're over fifty, which is when time get...
A great guide for those who read books from Oprah's book club or non-fiction. I don't usually read these "genres" so much of this book was wasted on me. But to be honest, I was able to remove a few books from my monstrous TBR based on Nancy Pearl's information - realizing a books subject matter did...
I now have a list of books I'm excited to track down and read... what could be better? Now I'm curious to see what gems the other Book Lust titles hold.

She also deserves credit for encouraging people to read for pleasure and to find what works for them. The book does have some misses, some which ...
Loved this book! You think it's going to be a pretty boring chick-lit and then it surprises you with a plot you never expected. The prose is beautiful and whitty. The historical story it tells; unforgettable. I often caught myself chuckling out loud, and smiling at the way things were worded. ...
An interesting cast of characters drives this story set in post WWII on the island of Guernsey off the coast of England. I'm not usually one for books set in this time period, but found myself totally caught up in this one. We learn through letters about the islander's experiences during their 5 ye...
