Compulsion by Jonathan Kellerman

*****

Usual murder mystery fiction featuring psychologist Alex Delaware partnered with LAPD detective Milo Sturgis. Grand easy holiday read that raced along but the plot I shall probably have forgotten by vacation's end. #book #fiction

The Ghost by Robert Harris

*****

I really enjoyed this novel, a total page turner that raced along. It's narrated by the ghost writer of the former British prime minister, who's brought in on the project after the sudden death of the first writer. The ex PM Adam Lang and his wife Ruth...

God Is Not Great

*****

I was expecting great things in this book from a thinker I deeply admire. Unfortunately it has nothing new to say and has no chance of convincing anyone on either side of the fence. I'm not a big reader, I rarely read anything approaching philosophy...

Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult

*****

Easy to read, page turner of a novel whose main character is Peter, a bullied teenager, who heads into high school one morning armed and kills ten people. I found many of the characters to be cliched and a bit one dimensional. But despite that the...

Some funny writing makes up 5 mins of this dire mess. If they removed the smutty references, kids might enjoy. Avoid
