Soy Sauce for Beginners
by Kirstin Chen
Conundrum (10/17/2013)
What woman hasn't run to "get away from it all" only to find herself in the middle of an even more complex situation? Such is the case with Gretchen Lin in Soy Sauce for Beginners. Ambition, pride, and loyalty all join to create a fascinating book.
The Mouse-Proof Kitchen
by Saira Shah
The Mouse-Proof Kitchen (6/24/2013)
One of life's greatest frustrations is being powerless. Such is the theme of this book. In an effort to control SOME part of her life, the narrator focuses on controlling the rodent problem in the kitchen; alas, like life, this also proves to be beyond her abilities.
The Hour of Peril: The Secret Plot to Murder Lincoln Before the Civil War
by Daniel Stashower
The Hour of Peril (1/10/2013)
An interesting history of the Pinkerton agency, but rather slow and clumsy to read.
Paris in Love: A Memoir
by Eloisa James
Paris in Love (3/14/2012)
If one were to visit an old friend after returning from a trip, this is what the conversation would be...an afternoon of bits and pieces and all the best parts of an unforgettable trip to a fabulous place. Relax and enjoy the book with a glass of wine or a nice cup of tea.
