I had much higher hopes for this book, and I am probably one of thfew that just didn't love it and rave about it. I could see where it was going before very far into the story, and I found the love interest a bit off-putting as a vehicle to get the Michael to read to Frau Schmidtz. I almost rated it two stars, but decided on three because of the court room scenes about the concentration camps. ]]> <![CDATA[Quiltgranny is on page 218 of The Reader ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/48804266 Quiltgranny is finished with The Reader ]]> <![CDATA[Quiltgranny added 'The Housekeeper and the Professor']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80851435 The Housekeeper and the Professor (Paperback) by Yoko Ogawa

I loved the word play in this book, and the characters were such giants! It took a while to get into the story, but once it got going, there were surprises, and twists and turns - both expected and unexpected.

A great read for anyone who loves books, mystery, character novels and a bit of Victorian romance. Sounds pretty impossible to have this all in one book? Not necessarily so. I'll be looking or more of Zafon's writing. ]]> <![CDATA[Quiltgranny added 'Worth More Dead: And Other True Cases']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80761885 to: Worth More Dead: And Other True Cases (Ann Rule's Crime Files, Vol. 10) by Ann Rule
Typical of all her other books - a good beach read
