Sharp: A Memoir
by David Fitzpatrick
exposing memoir (7/29/2012)
I am not sure I enjoyed reading "Sharp" by David Fitzpatrick, in that I found that he was just a bit too graphic in some of his descriptions. However, I give him a lot of credit for exposing his illness in a way that really that lets others know how painful mental illnessmore
An Unmarked Grave: A Bess Crawford Mystery
by Charles Todd
Unmarked grave (5/28/2012)

Kaaterskill Falls
by Allegra Goodman
Great read (4/23/2011)
Surprised to find that there are no other reviews for this book. I really enjoyed Kaaterskill Falls. I felt that the character development was fantastic- I felt a lot of sympathy for the sisters. I learned a lot about the more conservative Jewish faith. I grew up not farmore
