A story about "One Good Turn: A Novel"

One Good Turn: A Novel

by Kate Atkinson

I really enjoyed this book. Not only was the mystery plot first rate but as the earlier comment stated the characters are superbly drawn. In addition Atkinson writes here and there with tongue in cheek and gave me a lot of chuckles. A rare combination. I look forward to When Will There Be Good News and will very likely mourn the ending of this trilogy.

A story about "The Little Grey Men (Oxford Children's Modern Classics)"

The Little Grey Men (Oxford Children's Modern Classics)

by "BB"

I took this book out of the library one summer when I was a child. I found it captivating. I hadn’t been able to remember the title. I was writing stories by this time and thought it was a wonderful example of the kind of book I’d like to write some day. I finally came up with the right search words: children’s book, fantasy and Cloudberry, which was the name of one of the characters. What a delight to recover this book from my memory!

By the way, I’ve listed it in my “W” list because BB is the pseudonym for Denys Watkins-Pitchford.

Loving Frank: A Novel

by Nancy Horan

This wasn’t easy to read. I empathized strongly with Mamah but couldn’t agree with her reasoning. It was an interesting study of someone who tries unsuccessfully to rationalize a way of living that is contrary to social norms – not that I always agree with “social norms” – but there were mitigating circumstances here. It was sometimes depressing but always interesting and well written. It gave me a lot to think about.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Vintage)

by Stieg Larsson

I hope Stieg Larsson enjoyed writing this book as much as I enjoyed listening to it. A shame that he died so suddenly and before his time. I look forward to reading the other two books in the series and know that I will probably treasure them.
