All the Little Live Things
Wallace Stegner
An interesting title for a book that finally reveals its origin. The most sensuous narrative of one mans grief over the loss of a child and the clash of generation gap. The confrontation of the human condition with the predictable and sometimes unpredictable clock of life. This story drew me into a world of repeat and replay of sadness. The basic tenant of “better to have loved and lost, than to have never experienced love” jumps out as a message of the true texture of life. --Reda Herriott
The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency
Alexander McCall Smith
A Catchy, Cute Titled book that I ignored – until.. A customer came into the book store and recommended this book. The customer had spent many years in Africa and guaranteed this and other books by McCall Smith a pleasant, hilarious, non-violent read. The setting for this and the other four books in the mystery series are set in Africa. Believable stories of the variety of services a detective agency might handle. Writing style and dialogue as if I were conversing with a good friend. Highly recommend for all ages.
