Another great Lesbian detective story from Clair McNab! I'm hooked on her series! In this mystery, murders are happening to people who have received chain letters. The murderer is very clever in how they get close to the victim. You will really enjoy this one.

This is the fifth and last book of a wonderful series that takes place in the 1800's in both Ireland and New York City. The struggles of being an immigrant, along with racism and how God's love conquers all are themes. The plot is compelling and the characters are well-developed.

Another Denise Cleever Thriller succeeds! I couldn't put this book down. Psychiatric patients being brainwashed to be suicide bombers? What will Claire McNab think of next?


Homer's Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat
Review Date: 12/3/2013
Helpful Score: 2


Beautiful, moving, true story of a blind cat who sees more that most. Funny, well-written, and touching, Homer's Odyssey is a page-turner. If you are a cat-lover you don't want to miss this book. Even if you don't like cats, you don't want to miss this New York Times Bestseller!

Although the writing is excellent with great character development, the story really seems to be behind the times or from another country! Where I live, people with Down Syndrome are treated with respect, educated and have jobs. Also, the school system is blamed in this book yet teachers are often the best advocates for children with Down Syndrome pushing them to learn to read. I was as a Language, Speech and Hearing Specialist who worked with children with Down Syndrome on their speech so they would speak more clearly. The school systems nowadays provide a lot for children with disabilities including vocational training. This novel is way off-base. Also, the comment in the book that says that someone wouldn't be gay if they were Christian I found to be offensive. Many, many devoted Christians are gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered. This author needs to do more research!!!
