Historia
In this escapade, the Junior Ganymede Club (Jeeves's association of butlers and valets) is revealed to be an arm of the British intelligence service. Jeeves must ferret out a Fascist spy, and only his hapless employer can help. Unfolding in the background are school-chum capers, affairs of the heart, drawing-room escapades, antics with aunts, and sartorial set-tos.

Delia Ephron had struggled through several years of heartbreak. She’d lost her sister, Nora, and then her husband, Jerry, both to cancer.

Historia
We never know what will happen next in Florida. We know only that, any minute now, something will. Every few months, Dave Barry gets a call from some media person wanting to know, "What the hell is wrong with Florida?" Somehow, the state's acquired an image as a subtropical festival of stupid, and as a loyal Floridian, Dave begs to differ. Sure, there was the 2000 election. And people seem to take their pants off for no good reason. And it has flying insects the size of LeBron James. But it is a great state, and Dave is going to tell you why.

Hysterically funny
Revisado: 12-28-24
Dave Berry is one of my favorite authors! I followed his columns in the Los Angeles Times and I have read most of his books! His humor never fails to keep me laughing from beginning to end whether it’s a newspaper column or a book.

Historia
In this age of constant movement and connectedness, perhaps staying in one place is a more exciting prospect, and a greater necessity than ever before. The Art of Stillness paints a picture of why so many have found richness in stillness and what - from Marcel Proust to Blaise Pascal to Phillipe Starck - they’ve gained there.

Not My Politics
Revisado: 03-13-24
In my 20's I read 'Confessions of Nat Turner' and loved it. I wanted to know more about the Styrons, especially Rose! The story of her full and daring life held my interest for the first few chapter but I ultimately put it down because of the ultra liberal politics. It's rare that I don't finish a book, in this case, it was easy!

Historia
Five women revolutionize the modern art world in postwar America in this "gratifying, generous, and lush" true story from a National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize finalist (Jennifer Szalai, New York Times). Set amid the most turbulent social and political period of modern times, Ninth Street Women is the impassioned, wild, sometimes tragic, always exhilarating chronicle of five women who dared to enter the male-dominated world of 20th-century abstract painting - not as muses but as artists.

Historia
Spanning the years 1940 to 1965, Defender of the Realm, the third volume of William Manchester’s The Last Lion, picks up shortly after Winston Churchill became prime minister - when his tiny island nation stood alone against the overwhelming might of Nazi Germany. The Churchill portrayed by Manchester and Reid is a man of indomitable courage, lightning-fast intellect, and an irresistible will to action.

Winston Churchill
Revisado: 01-11-23
Although I loved the first two volumes because they were read by the author, I would not have missed finishing Manchester’s trilogy! I highly recommend all three volumes not only because I wanted to learn about Winston Churchill but also the history that surrounded this great man.
