Against the background of a Christian presence at Auchwitz, Carroll traces a complex relationship between Christians, Jews and Antisemitism in 2000 years of Christian history. A personalized and idiosyncratic history rather than a diadactic one.

Interesting intrepretation of the austistic mind. First part of the book was very intriguing, the second half got somewhat more repetitious.

A funny, sad and transcendent story of a young girl's growing up in Appalachia. The story centers around Icy Sparks, a 10 year old orphan who lives with her grandparents. She has violent tics and uncontrollable cursing which is not diagnose until adulthood. The book recounts a girl's journey to womanhood and the lives she touches along the way.

If you are interested in the way a jury functions, this book is for you. Steven Alder is a journalist with his most prolific writing on the legal system. This should be a compulsory reading for judges, lawyers and jurors.

I am always looking for new authors for mysteries or thrillers. I just discovered Coben, and found this book very engaging and unexpected.
Grace Lawson picks up a newly developed set of family photos, only to discover a mysterious photo which doesn't seem to belong..until she begins to discover that it is a picture of her husband from many years ago. The plot which develops is not the usual predictable story line.

One of the best re-creation of the Battle of Gettysburg. If you haven't read any books on the Battle of Gettysburg, this is the first and maybe only book you might need to read. It should be a required reading for all highschool students.
