Shantaram


Fabulous! Robert's is an incredible story teller. This book is gigantic, but don't let that scare you away.  This autobiographical tale draws you in and frankly I was sad when I was coming to the end. Robert's does a terrific job of describing rich characters. Prabaker is my very favorite. This book is a true delight!

Night Train to Lisbon


A philosophical read. (Oh how I miss my college days of philosophy classes.)  Meaty  and  poetic. Elegantly written. I enjoyed, but did not find this a quick read.

The Makedown


Fun, quick, well-written chick lit! Similar to Jennifer Weiner. I went to the school with the author and her sister. Kudos to you Gitty for writing a novel. I am impressed!

The 19th Wife


Fabulous! A compliment to Under the Banner of Heaven. I highly recommend this book, especially if you are interested in Mormonism.

Skylight Confessions


Depressing, but good. I enjoyed the second half better then the first.  Parts hit too close to home.
