Book Reviews from Master The Art of Reading participants

Every day deserves a chance by Max Lucado: Listened to on CD-I loved theidea of facing every day from the point of view of the dog-"It's my favorite!"

It's not about me by Max Lucado: Great reminder!

Darker than Night by John Lutz: Slow moving at times. Still a good read.

Sew Lingerie: it's easy; here's how by Kerstin Martensson: The book was helful if you havecorresponding patterns but some of the pieces are out of date.

Dewey: the small town cat who touched the world by Vicki Myron: Excellentbook on an abandoned kitty who lives and found library. Set to ride in library book cart. Entertains staff.

Second Opinion by Michael Palmer: Palmer's medical mysteries arealways a good read. Enough true medical research andinfo to be believable and frightening. Having a father with a large inoperable brain tumor myself allows me to relate to the brain injury/coma/etc. That Thea's father has-or appeared to have-the opening statement "Question Everything" should be everyone's first line of defense. Excellent book!

Valiant Bride by Jane Peart: A girl lputs aside her own desires to follow her sense of duty and, in the process, becoomes hurt. Faith eventually sees her through. A deeply moving novel.

Piercing the Darkness by Frank Peretti: The sequel to "This Present Darkness." A very good 2nd book. Really enjoyed the spiritual warfare part of the book.

If you really loved me by Ann Rule: Very good! Love Ann Rule.

Blade Itself by Marcus Sakey: Excellent! Very violent, coarse-adult level fantasy.
