The Widow
by John Grisham
View in Library Catalog
book cover


A John Grisham novel is never disappointing. The Widow follows that philosophy. All the elements I enjoy; small town lawyer, courtroom dramas, a jury trial, twists and turns, betrayals, real people, believable situations. It was all there. Another great book by Mr. Grisham.

My Husband's Wife

The first book by Feeney I read was Daisy Darker a long time ago and I loved it, so when I came across this interesting title, I figured it would probably also be great. IT WAS SUCH A WILD RIDE. If you're good at guessing twists, you won't be with this one. And there were several. READ IT.

Steam of consciousness thoughts of one of Germany's great 20th-century poets. Brugge is Rilke's alter-ego, living in poverty in Paris. The "Notebook" consists of his thoughts on poverty, downtrodden people, his background, the art of story telling, love, and God. Many strange adjective + noun combinations.

Not one of my favorites. Interesting facts about the sites in Washington DC, but the suspense of the story line doesn't hold up in the end.
