Giovanni's Room
by James Baldwin
View in Library Catalog
book cover


While this is not my genre and while I did not love this book, It does do an excellent job of portraying the conflicts and challenges faced by gay men in the 1050’s in France. Baldwin’s central character brings to life the dichotomy of emotions faced as he struggles to come to terms with his undeniable attraction to men while harboring an understanding of society’s expectations for traditional marriage and family. A well written and thoughtful narrative.

While I love Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum books, I am not as thrilled with her other work. Nothing wrong with them, I just don’t find the characters as engaging, or maybe it’s that they are not as colorful. This book pairs together a NASCAR driver with a woman looking to find her brother in Miami. It’s lighthearted with some darker events and, of

Given the title I was worried that this book would have a lot of characters I would have to keep track of. But it turns out it had just the right amount. A group of authors, would-be authors, critics and others meet for a conference, one part of which is a murder mystery adventure on a section of unused train in the everglades. Given the title you can imagine what happens, but given the setting, the story is take to a whole new level And I was fooled as to who the killer was. An excellent mystery.
