Looking for something to read as the winter nights continue? These seven links are to reviews of mine might point you in the direction of something new to read.
La Belle Sauvage (The Book of Dust #1) by Philip Pullman
The long awaited first book in Philip Pullman’s sequel trilogy to His Dark Materials books, and it was worth the wait.
The AIDS Pandemic by James Chin
AIDS is a complicated condition, it is a shame that this book took such a simplistic view.
A Murder Is Announced by Agatha Christie
A simple premise develops into a sparkling plot in one of Agatha Christie’s finest novels.
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut Jr
More than just an anti-war novel, this is Kurt Vonnegut’s best novel and a startling read.
Minority Report – Volume Four of the Collected Stories by Philip K Dick
The title story, of this collection, provides a much more, with a twisting plot and darker characters, than the bright and upbeat Tom Cruise film that bore the same name.
The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett
HRH the Queen develops a taste for reading in this charming novella by Alan Bennett.
Three Nick Nowak Mysteries (Boystown #1) by Marshall Thornton
An American PI story that does something interesting and different with the genre.
Happy reading
Drew
