Grisham's collection of stories: Ford County, soundly establishes seven
well crafted stories set in the South, specifically Mississippi. The
stories are varied and the characters tangible, with a multitude of
emotions rushing through each. Settle into a comfortable chair, you'll no
sooner finish the first story than be turning the last page of the book.
It's a must read for Grisham fans, and recommended for the short story
reader's night stand.

Whether a sceptic or a fan, your nose will be in this book. Professor
Langdon returns in a new whirlwind face paced intrigue. Ancient mysteries
and factoids abound. Ancient clues lead to lost discoveries of lost
wisdom. Hope for a snowy weekend and take the phone off the hook.

Jeanette Walls' success illuminates best seller lists with her book: Glass
Castles: a Memoir. Now Walls turns her talent to another memoir. This is
the story of Lily Casey Smith, her grandmother, who lived in a remote village
in western Texas in 1901. Lily is quite the indomitable character uniqely
molded by her childhood. This volume is quite different in style compared
to her previous work. Her writing is seamless and easy going a peek of a
childhood in yellow dirt Texas at the turn of the century.
