The Third Degree
by Greg Isles

View in Library Catalog



Very interesting story with twists that are unexpected. Enjoyable summer read. The protaganist shows many sides of a person when put in different stressful situations. It really displaces you never know how you will react in different situations.

The book is set in rural Maine and reflects how Mainers feel and react to outsiders. Entertaining summer read. Not as scary as his other stories but enjoyable.

My first feminist theory book. Really interesting! Great insight mixed with humor. Never got bored. Will be reading her other books. Recommend totally.

Way Station

An interesting Science Fiction read that takes place here on earth, not some distant galaxy, star ship or any of the usual SciFi settings. While it is fiction, the story line is as topical today as it was in 1963 when the book was published. Don't know why I never found Mr. Simak's books before but I will definitely read them in the future.

In A Sunburned Country By Bill Bryson

I love Bill Bryson and this book did not disappoint. It is funny, informative and a great travelogue rolled up in one. I can easily imagine Australia in its many configurations. The descriptions of cities, national parks, the outback and tiny towns make you feel like you are there. The author also highlights people across the continent from city dwellers to small town people to aborigines. This was a great book.

Olive Kitteridge

The book was a bit depressing but I read it to the end. On the plus side, the flawed characters are reassuringly imperfect.

Hunter

Very fast paced relationship building to the point where you slow yourself down so you can process what is happening between the characters.

Sleep No More
by Greg Iles

Greg Iles deviated from his usual theme of racism to that of a supernatural tainted story of guilt and suspicion. He makes you believe both theories - the supernatural reason and the logical explanation. He ties in characters from other books so you feel like your invested in them.
