		<description><![CDATA[Recently, I was rereading an old manuscript of mine—a memoir, as it happens—and in it, I had written: &#8220;Storytelling has curative powers.&#8221; I&#8217;ve always known that is true. The curative power of storytelling has helped me through the best and worst of times in my life. Storytelling is how I cope with my own issues, [...]]]></description>

This latest venture into historical fiction just doesn&#8217;t ring as true to you. While this book is most definitely f&#38;ckD-up, it lacks your creative genius&#8211;it is too hampered by fact.

I&#8217;m busy as a bird dog these days, and escaping from it all right before I go to sleep is the aim with my reading time. So I take a world where the best librarian is an orangutan, and that gets me pretty far. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Terry Prachett, I heart you and your takes on famous tales. This one in the Discworld series is a real stand-aloner. Prachett takes on the &#8220;Tale of the Pied Piper&#8221; with the aplomb you&#8217;d expect, but he tackles this with a grace I found surprisingly appetizing. You don&#8217;t need to read a single other Discworld [...]]]></description>

Lyon&#8217;s novel is told from multiple perspectives, those of a young girl, Lawanda, getting ready for that time in high school when college plans loom large, and her extended family, including a Mamaw who has visions of Jesus herself.

I read this book because it was hyped up all around town here in Nashvegas--Ross is a local author and newly formed celebrity. Mr. Peanut was released to incredible acclaim--the New York Times said Ross is a "sorcerer with words."From Publisher's Weekly we hear: [...]]]></description>
