Past Imperfect/J. M. Cornwell

Some great alternative selection here. Alan Bradley is the best, although the audio version is just peachy.

A Pictorial Memoir: 23 years in the making, is a reflection of the hard work and sacrifices faced by many young Americans who unselfishly don the uniform of the U.S. Armed Forces. Each one individually, and respectively has their own story. In this Memoir, I am grateful to have the opportunity to share my story with you the reader, in a Pictorial Memoir. As stated in its’ title there is over 20 years of history and experiences contained in this Memoir. It has been accomplished, around the world over, to include The United States, The Central Asian States, The South Pacific, Europe, and The Middle East. It has come with great reward, sacrifice, loss, and healing, however, I have enjoyed it to the utmost. Some of the Photos depict graphic violence, as a result of Operational Contingencies in a combat zone, however most are a result of day to day Operations in a direct leadership environment, that I hope are pleasing to you the reader, and I hope that you enjoy this Memoir, as much as I enjoy sharing it with you. As you flip through this Memoir, I would like for you to keep uppermost in your mind, as I have throughout my career that: “ No One prays for Peace more than a soldier, because it is he that has to make the ultimate sacrifice.”

‘ A Pictorial Memoir: 23 Years in the Making,’ is an official entry in the Book Expo America Exhibit in New York, New York May 25 – 27, 2010. ‘ A Pictorial Memoir : 23 Years in the Making,’ is an official entry into the Combined California Library Association Book Exhibit in Sacramento, California, November 15 – 20, 2010.

Take a Glimpse of The Other Side of the Game -- New Book Tells an Autobiographical Tale About Electronic Surveillance and Monitoring

ALAMEDA, Calif., Dec. 18, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- People have the right to privacy. The police have the right to surveillance and monitoring people especially when involved in a legal case. But what if authority abuses its power and breaches into one's privacy with the intent of destroying an individual's anonymity? Author Tadaram Maradas shares a similar experience as he takes readers to The Other Side of the Game.

Espionage movies have shown how electronic devices can be used to tap into a person's privacy and discover his most intimate activities. On film, the process looks fascinating and exciting. But in reality, when one becomes the target of surveillance, it is far from a pleasant experience. The Other Side of the Game tells an excerpt from the many excursions in the life series of author Tadaram Maradas. It tells an autobiographical account in which electronic surveillance and remote neural monitoring led him to file a complaint against the police department.

In this fascinating true account, the author reveals the details of his surveillance and monitoring, including the official documents that were filed in his complaint and the due process he followed. He also takes time to expound on legal terms to readers such as perjury, slander and others-and how one can proceed with these cases. With an in-depth view of electronic surveillance and an extensive index of useful references, The Other Side of the Game is a fascinating read that readers will enjoy and learn from.

Hi Yara!
I would like to suggest putting my debut novel, Her Sanctuary, on your New Authors to Watch list. Here's the summary and cover pic. It's available on over 25,000 bookstore websites including amazon.com, The Book Depository, BooksOnBoard.com and Barnes&Noble.com.

Shannon Mallory was a woman on the run….not from outside forces but from her own wounded heart. When she pulled up into the parking lot of The Last Resort Café, in the town of Sanctuary, little did she know she would find the one thing she never even knew she was searching for….true love.


Seth Proudfoot wasn’t looking for anything, except an end to his miserable existence. Accused of a crime he couldn’t remember committing, he was ostracized by a town that, ironically, bore the name of the one thing he could never find….Sanctuary.

When the two meet, neither can ignore the magnetic pull between them, but will Shannon allow her damaged spirit to trust a man…a man who may have murdered his own family?

Though Shannon is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen, it is her spirit that breaks down the iron-clad shield around his heart. Their desire burns hotter than the Arizona desert, threatening to melt the very mountains that loom like silent Gods above their heads. But can their love survive a betrayal that could very well cost them both their lives?

It's been getting great reviews from amazon.com and right here at goodreads with an average rating of 4.04. Please consider it for your listonia list as I am self-published and any free promotion is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!!

Seers of Light looks good. Manchester House, Living Beneath The Radar...

The first ten looks interesting. Why the question, if I may?

I just didn't know what you were talking about, sorry. :)

LOL That happens haha ;)

I know, right?

I'm going to delete the Bronte, Austen and Shakespear entries, as well as The Memoirs of a Geisha and The Notebook entry, since they can hardly be called unnoticed....

Hey Jan, That's true. :)
