A fantastic list of journeys, Bev! All of it covers so much great territory. Thanks for this.

2011-05-11T16:54:16.388-04:00

I can't believe Patterson still seems to be so popular. Folks look forward to his books, then they are disappointed when they read them. He has quite a few new books coming out before the end of the year....
Glad all is well!

Some fine selections there, Bev. I'm still scratching my head that James Patterson was the second most read author, though ;-). Thanks.

Hi Ho Michael! You are my loyal follower...and I thank you and will give you a shout out always.
Hot Zone can still give me chills....shouldn't get me started on political discussions~~~I am so worried where our government is taking things.
Thanks always for popping in. I apprecate it my friend.

2011-03-23T16:03:09.485-04:00

Excellent recaps, Bev (and oh boy, do you cover a lot of ground). I think I'll take you up on Gunman’s Rhapsody, it sounds great. I'll be jumping into Matterhorn come April (me and March don't get along). Glad to hear you're giving The 13th Valley a gander.

And isn't THE HOT ZONE one chilling, true life read?!? Few works of fiction have anything over Preston's book here. Thanks for this, and the shout-out.

Good summary of this subject, Bev. I've met and read Christa Faust, and she is fierce (and fun to be around). I definitely agree that women authors can write tough and dark content. And I think their writing can catch male readers off-guard in that it comes from a different perspective than they expect. Excellent point. Thanks.

I am going to check out your post. The book and the movie, Princess Bride, just make me smile.

Thanks, as always, for popping by.

Fine list of books (and movies) to shoot for in a Valentine's Day splurge, Bev. I noted that you mentioned that The Princess Bride was a personal favorite. Rachel and I did a joint post on it last year, if you're interested. Thanks, Bev.

2011-01-06T08:05:50.040-05:00

I enjoyed it very much and have had several requests to read it. Looking forward to reading the next one!

Thanks for your kind comments. It was a fun blog to do. I now have on my desk to read The 13th Valley...thank you very much.
Do steel yourself for Matterhorn. It's great, and even though it's a novel, you know Marlantes lived it, as did so many others. It left me...sad for many reasons. Can't wait to know what you think.
Thanks again for stopping by, always nice to hear from you.

2011-01-05T12:26:04.400-05:00

Wow! What a way to start the year, Bev! That's a great list. Classics like the Hammett and Portis and then updating with the new Lehane. I must commend you also for your list of Vietnam novels. I've read 3/5's of them and I very much agree. And you are another blogger who've given MATTERHORN a high recommendation. It's in my audiobook stack because of Dog Eared Copy's review. I'm steeling myself for it. In case you're interested, the other Vietnam novel that I consider a must read is John M. Del Vecchio's The 13th Valley. Fine post, Bev. Thanks for this.

Thanks Christine~~for stopping by and enjoying the review. Whatever form of the book you do, you will be glad you did, it's great.

Glad you thought so. I gave it out as my book gift this year~~this is one I will read again. Thank you!

I've sent props your way for this review, Bev. Because of you, I read one of the best books this year. Many thanks.

2010-12-08T16:08:31.413-05:00

Trust me, you will be glad you did. I can't say enough about this book. We did it for book discussion, and we had some discussion. Please let me know what you think when you're done.
Thanks for dropping by le0pard13, always a pleasure.

I've heard that this is one remarkable read, and your equally wonderful review proves that. And, it is on audiobook, too. I hope to check this out soon, Bev. Thanks for this.

Thank you for enjoying it! Yeah, I remember Carpenter doing that. Always important to match the music to the blog:)Thanks for stopping by and commenting~~like to hear from you.

2010-10-22T17:08:28.842-04:00

This is one solid set of books and films for this season, Bev. It's also a great choice of music and lyrics to thread it through. I always remember how director John Carpenter used this tune so forebodingly in his seminal film, HALLOWEEN. Great post! Thanks.

I've never read Daniel Silva but "Rembrandt Affair" sounds very interesting!
