Patty's Recommends

One can never go wrong wiht a Jance novel. Queen of the Night is fast moving with multi-faceted characters that you just know are all moving towards a collision course. I especially liked the Native American mysticism woven through this story. You will enjoy.

Not since Uncle Tom's Cabin has a book on slavery had such an impression on me. Heartfully written with strong characters you get to follow for a lifetime. This is a great bookclub book – lots to talk about.

If you are a history buff, or a Jeopardy! junkie, you will love this book. Bryson gives us trivial history about so many things that have to do with our homes and environment. What is an “epergne”? Or did you know that two mice, breeding prolifically, could theoretically produce a million descendants in a year?! How about that a quarter of all mammal species – some eleven hundred in all – are bats! Last one (I promise) – did you know that lawns in the U.S. cover more surface – 50,000 square miles – than any single farm crop? All these interesting facts and much, much more are waiting for you inside these pages.

Look out! Lula, with Grandma's help, is cooking Bar-B-Que – a scary “Flame On” thought. Also, can you picture Lula looking like Darth Vader in leopard print spandex? Always fun, non-rocket-scientist, laugh-out-loud reading.
