The Needlecraft Book
by Maggi McCormick Gordon
View in Library Catalog
book cover


As an accomplished crafter and fiber artist, this encyclopedic book covers all of my favorite crafts. Its oversized pages provide clear and detailed photographs with instructions on knitting, embroidery, needlepoint, quilting, crochet, applique and patchwork. Designed for both the beginner and advanced crafters, this book is a useful and beautiful addition to my crafting library.

The things we cannot say

Found it interesting the comparison between the great grandmother, who had a stroke, and the great grandson, who was artistic and nonverbal how they managed to communicate with each other with the use of an iPad, and how the great grandmothers story from her childhood in Poland during the World War II unfolds

The sequel to The Perfect Marriage was very good as well. Should read the first one so you have an idea about what happened before you read the sequel. Good story. Not as twisty and not as good as the first one, but worth the read.

The Kingmaker's Daughter
by Philippa Gregory

book cover


This book follows the 2 daughters of the man who was responsible for people seated on the throne of England in the 1400's. It follows the 2 girls through their lives and does a beautiful job of following their changing view of the position of Queen from their childhood until their death. It is a wonderful, albeit at times a grim, look at the life of powerful women during that time period.

Dead Sleep
by Greg Iles

book cover


In this story about women who go missing and then have their dead images appear in paintings, Isles does an excellent job in developing the characters and their connections to one another. And this is important because the subject matter here is often harsh and without this development of characters, it would simply be a brutal story. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and liked the ending.

The Lost Coast

book cover


This is one of those books you can read more than once because there is a lot going on and there are parts of it I still am not clear on. An investigator is hired to check on large payments that were made by the client’s late aunt. The investigation uncovers more than initially suspected and reveals a well-crafted web of deceit. A good book but I feel like I missed some things.

Found it interesting her story went back-and-forth between German high school teacher and young Jewish bakery in small town. What was their connection was the high school teacher a Nazi story unfolds

book cover


This translated book from Japanese was very interesting. A boy of high school age who works in his family’s bookstore has just lost his grandfather who he lived with. He shuts himself away in the bookstore until a strange visitor comes into the shop. I liked the different writing this book presented as well as the way it presents a different way of looking a books.
