Portrait of an Unknown Woman by Daniel Silva. I had recently read a news story about what is the plot of this book. This is the first book by Daniel Silva that I read. I liked this book so much that when I finished it, I read it again. Reply #1501. Jun 13 23, 9:43 PM |

That sounds promising, MiraJane. Just checked and it looks like it's part of a long running series featuring art restorer/spy Gabriel Allon. Reply #1502. Jun 15 23, 6:14 PM |

I just finished the above book. It was not very good at all. Would not recommend it. Now got to find another one. Reply #1508. Aug 06 23, 9:56 AM |

Just finishing the 2nd book in Jan Karon's Mitford series: A Light in the Window. Quite a long series about a sixty-something priest and the goings-on in his small town. Not mysteries which are my usual fare, but humorous and fun reading. Reply #1510. Aug 13 23, 8:19 AM |

Hi, Rubytops -sorry not to get back to you earlier (life gets in the way!). Yes, I read 'Surprised by Joy' ages ago. I love all of C.S. Lewis' books, from the Narnia series to the space trilogy to ...well, the entire canon! Did you see the movie 'Shadowlands', starring Anthony Hopkins as Lewis and Debra Winger as Joy? Beautiful film, sensitive and moving. Reply #1513. Aug 17 23, 4:42 PM |

I'm reading "Bunny: A Novel," by Mona Awad. It's the age-old story of wanting to fit in and figuring out how to do it, of loneliness and isolation, but it's not a downer. How could it be when a group of upper-middle-class creative writing students magically transform bunnies into boyfriends who also serve as butlers? Not sure how it will all end up, but I'll stick with it because of the portrayal of the main character's solitude, and of the inventive language Awad uses. Reply #1519. Sep 22 23, 3:45 PM |

I didn't mean to write a whole review. I guess I'm just trying to see if I understand the book at all! Reply #1520. Sep 22 23, 3:46 PM |
