Grey supplies equal doses of humor and heroics in the zippy illustrations that play out the dual dramas on both human and miniature scales . . . A surefire theme worth revisiting and even moreso when done with this much panache

Grey expertly skewers toy marketing (an endpaper spread showcasing Beach Time Brenda’s many accessories is especially wonderful) while creating comedic, large-scale dramas in a child-sized world

Grey fills the spreads with color and action, providing plenty of high jinks and hilarious happenings

Traction Man is back, but is he ready for the likes of Beach-Time Brenda™? . . . A wonderfully satirical, action-packed romp that echoes the grand tradition of comic books as it ingeniously communicates the complete absorption of imaginative play

Over is a relentless, exacting novel that pushes into the heart of grief and suggests some narrow routes to recovery

Margaret Forster once again proves her ability to get under the skin of her characters

Over is a gripping page-turner... a hauntingly rewarding read

Each sentence is sculpted to perfection. Like so many of Forster's novels, it leaves behind a sense of something both absent and profound

A wrenching panoramic novel about the politics of grief in the wake of 9/11.

Amy Waldman writes like a possessed angel. She also has the emotional smarts to write a story about Islam in America that fearlessly lasers through all our hallucinatory politics with elegant concision. This is no dull and worthy saga; it's a literary breakthrough that reads fast and breaks your heart.

Waldman imagines a toxic brew of bigotry in conflict with idealism in this frighteningly plausible and tightly wound account of what might happen if a Muslim architect had won a contest to design a memorial at the World Trade Center site...Waldman keenly focuses on political and social variables...As misguided outrage flows from all corners, Waldman addresses with a refreshing frankness thorny moral questions and ethical ironies without resorting to breathless hyperbole.

A wonderful novel which challenges your beliefs.

What I liked about The Reckoning: Pretty much everything. Katsu’s writing falls nicely somewhere in between fancy literary writing and popular fiction.

5 out of 5 stars: I can’t wait to see how the series will end.

I was really grabbed by the narrative voice and I was fasincated by the story ... what a story!

Bodice-ripping romp through the West

Missy by Strong and memorable female characters throughout this enjoyable novel
