bookshelves: adultfiction-womenwriters, audiobooks
This was a long listen; 2 months!

A marvelous narrator and a terrific story of time travel and the space continuum. Ned Henry, an Oxford History student has jumped in time once too many times and is sent to the Victorian era for recuperation. There, he must continue to look for the "Bishop's Bird Stump", an ugly piece of art to bring back to the present time.

Lovely characters and very unique voice. (story voice, not narrator...though his voice was nice enough). ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77924257 Last Night in Twisted River: A Novel (Hardcover) by John Irving

bookshelves: adultfictionmalewriters
A beautiful and haunting tale of a young girl named Iris who becomes Isis after a terrible accident.

A quick read dotted with spooky pen/ink drawings, this story will make you yearn for death; or at least not fear it. One of the most touching stories of sibling love I've ever read. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77738106 The Grass Widow's Tale (Paperback) by Ellis Peters

bookshelves: adultfictionmalewriters, picture-books
A picture book for grown ups...could have been great, but the art was mostly weak (but great cover art), and the premise was too. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77398598 to: CakeLove: How to Bake Cakes from Scratch (Hardcover) by Warren Brown
bookshelves: wackynonfiction
Fun cookbook written like the baker must speak. A lawyer-turned-baker Warren Brown hangs up his robes for a nice bundt cake pan. The cakes look delicious. Eli made the whipped cream tonight (basic recipe) and was VERY impressed with himself. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76788462 to: The Great Good Thing (Paperback) by Roderick Townley
A great story about a story.
