Two Girls, Fat and Thin..........2007-09-21
*Spoilers*
I recently read and disliked Ann Packer's "Songs Without Words." What I wanted from that novel (what I thought it promised) was an examination of female friendship. To my good fortune, I found "Conversations with the Fat Girl" a few weeks later. I was initially resistant because I sometimes loathe chick lit, but this novel really hit the spot. It is an honest examination of a long term friendship coming apart at the seams.
Maggie Thompson is slowly facing the reality that her best friend since childhood, Olivia, has changed in dramatic ways. The estrangement between them is illuminated as Maggie endures Olivia's self-centered wedding preparations. Olivia is misrepresenting herself in many ways to her friends and fiance, and Maggie is feeling rejected and neglected. While Olivia has gotten everything she's ever dreamed of (or thinks she has) Maggie is stuck in a nowhere job with a tease of a workplace crush. The gap between Maggie and Olivia's fortunes becomes impossible to bridge. It isn't jealousy that does in the friendship -- it is Olivia's shifting values. She has become superficial, overly concerned with appearances, and horribly narcissistic. There are hints that she's living a lie (her perfect fiance seems to be a jerk; her new friends are shallow and fair-weather) but Olivia is really a supporting character in this story. This is about Maggie's transformation.
In the tradition of lesser chick lit, this novel at times goes for the easy answers. Maggie's gradual realization that Olivia is no longer her best friend seems very realistic, as are her efforts to better her life. What is more fairy tale is how instantly she sees results -- after what seems like a week at the gym, she loses a significant amount of weight, and with very little effort she finds the dream job. Even more annoying is Dominic, Maggie's co-worker and crush. Her morphs from head-trip tease to ideal boyfriend in a leap that could give you whiplasth. His transformation is badly lacking a few transitional scenes.
This is a really appealing read. After a spell I will read the author again.
Fat or Not, This Book Rocks!.......2007-09-14
This book is a fun read no matter who you are, and you should believe that coming from me because I'm a 27 year old dude. I was at my central library, saw this book, and decided, "Why not?" And you know what, I loved reading it. It was a compelling page-turner that I had looked forward to picking back up and reading on, but I must admit, I had felt a little embarrassed being seen in public with it.
Maggie is a very lovable character and reading her thoughts on being a heavy chick was quite an education. First, I now can appreciate the struggle that heavy girls go through; and, second, I understand what women find attractive in men (so there's my reward for reading this material). The book was positive, affirmative, and funny. It was nice to see Maggie's transformation and to see her real friends and family supporting her, even when Olivia, her so-called best friend, is trashing her.
The story has a great emotional component as well. During her physical transformation, Maggie undergoes an emotional transformation in which she learns that she has got to feel more self-confident and push back at people taking advantage of her. Most importantly, she realizes she must pursue her dreams (dating Dominic; becoming a restoration artist at the museum), and this sometimes means doing things that frighten her and make her feel uncomfortable. The author, Liza Palmer, uses effective metaphors to illustrate the character's growth, and she aims these metaphors at her readers to inspire us in our own lives: the blue buckets analogy with her dog and herself reminds us to not give in to our fear of the unknown; the picture of her as a kid at a jungle jim encourages us to stay connected to the passion and fearlessness we had once felt as children. These parts of the book are extremely motivational.
A great book for a guy or girl because the story is fun, insightful and hits at an emotional core. The only drawback is, like many reviewers, I felt the ending to be a bit abrupt, as the loose ends are tied together with no real sense of finality, the ending doesn't quite feel complete. But, no matter, the story works and resonates, and the novel is an impressive debut.
Funny Read.......2007-07-23
Great Writing! Very funny book. There's sort of an unexpected, funny ending. You see the growth of the main character, Maggie throughout the book as she makes changes in all aspects of her life. It's a book that has a positive stance on people who may be a little heavy set. It's great to see that in a fictional book instead of every character being the skinny size 4 blonde you usually read about.
If you grew up overweight..........2007-06-24
....read this book! Maggie's thoughts and actions are what mine were growing up as well. So I know how she feels. I could relate to this book (pulling the shirt down,thinking everyone is looking at your fat behind,etc.) and that's why I enjoyed it so much. The only problem I had with it, is that it kind of leaves you hangins. What happens with Dominec? What about Olivia?
How did she know?.......2007-06-10
I didn't realize that Liza Palmer had someone following me since I was little....because I swear this is the story of my own life.
This book was a wonderful, quick-witted read that had me laughing, sighing and checking outside my windows for book spies throughout the entire read. Well worth the money for this one. Great Job!!
Any by the way: Who can possibly resisit a title like "Conversations with the Fat Girl"
Book Description
Wickedly witty and full of more dirt than a debutante's diary, the mysteries of Carolyn Haines bring the southern Delta to roaring, rollicking life...
Intrepid P.I. Sarah Booth Delaney has been known to single-handedly save her family's Mississippi plantation, converse with Dahlia House's ghost, and capture a killer or two. But when a local girl is found dead in a cotton field, it's enough to make a lady toss back a Bloody Mary before noon on Sunday.
Someone held twenty-three-year-old Quentin McGee's face down in the rich Southern soil until she suffocated. The lawmen think Quentin's lover killed her. When the suspect's brother hires Sarah to prove his sibling innocent, Sarah quickly learns that the victim had plenty of wealthy, powerful enemies. Each had a bone to pick with Quentin for writing a scandalous exposé on her hometown. Adding spice to the gumbo is the news that Quentin was due to inherit the family fortune the day after she was killed...and that a second book was in the works. From illicit lovers and outraged families to slandered aristocrats, everyone is a suspect--and no one is safe...
"Carolyn Haines has done for the Delta what Janet Evanovich has done for New Jersey." --The State
"Wickedly funny. Devilishly clever. Scintillatingly Southern. Carolyn Haines is an author to die for." --Carolyn Hart

Inane, pointless, plotless drivel........2007-09-02
I purchased the first six books in this series on the strength of the first two books and the hope that the promise shown in the author's growth would flower. Unfortunately, each book has gone downhill since then. After the third book, I would have purchased no more. Note to self - buy only one book in a series at a time. This will save both money and time.
This author has so many agendas that it is hard to see a plot around them. Have you ever seen the back of a car with so many bumperstickers, you can't figure out what the driver is trying to get across. That is what a Carolyn Haines book is like.
The mystery is non-existent - anyone could figure out who did it in the first thirty pages. I get the feeling that the author writes the beginning and the end of her books and then uses filler in between.
The author is busy keeping a black ex-slave down on the plantation. Her portrayal of blacks place in modern-day society is offensive. Besides the ex-slave ghost, she also has a black woman as a fortune teller, an older black woman as a seamstress, and an older black man as a bartender. I can't begin to tell you who racist this comes across.
All of the men are two dimensional. Seems like if they are in the plot as likeable, it is because they are either madly in love with Sarah or were madly in love with Sarah's mother. I don't buy Sarah as a femme fatale.
What gives with the heartache over the married man? Does this appeal to the reading public? I don't find Sarah's running from person to person in this town begging for news of her would-be married lover to be at all endearing, or frankly, interesting. It makes this character even more shallow as the series progresses.
Right from the first chapter, the book is ridiculous. Explain to me why the acting sheriff calls Sarah to view the crime scene before the body is moved? Is Sarah the coroner? Is Sarah a crime scene forensics specialist? Is Sarah even a licensed private investigator? The answer to all is NO. So why is she called? She hasn't even been hired to investigate as yet. How did this town ever survive before Sarah returned home as a failed New York actress.
It gets better as Sarah and her cohort, Tinkie (the only character worth reading about in this series) run from spot to spot easily finding clues that the police have missed or not bothered to look for. Anyone else notice that Sarah doesn't really do any investigation? She merely falls over clues and then, at least two steps behind her reader, figures out whodunit.
My advice to the author - learn to write plot development and keep a mystery a mystery for at least 20 pages of a 350+ page book.
My advice to the reader - pass on this author and read some decent mystery books by Earlene Fowler, Donna Andrews, Elizabeth Peters, or Sharon McCrumb.
a fun romp through the Mississippi Delta.......2007-08-22
Bones to Pick is indeed a charming and fun mystery. It's not literary, it's not heavy. In fact, the end is slightly dragged down by all the thematic messages the characters start spouting.
Still...this Haines mystery does not disappoint in providing a madcap investigation by two unlikely partners (and their hounds) with a bit of complicated love interest and an opinionated ghost thrown in.
Any reader would be wise, however, to start at the beginning of the series, and not to take details too seriously (such as a patient having just had major thoracic surgery getting up from his bed to break up a fight.) Quick fun read with characters I've come to enjoy.
Pleasing Pick.......2007-08-10
Haines did not fail in her continuing series of the southern belle detectives. I can't wait till the next one.
Southern Stereotypes Meet Bad Writing.......2007-02-09
This book dumps the reader in the middle of the series. Within a few pages the reader meets Jittie the ghost obsessed with the heroine getting married, Tinkie the former debutante PI partner of the heroine, and Sweetie Pie the red tick hound. Then there's the banker with a heart of gold, the mean ole witch Bed and Breakfast owner, and a transexual gossip writer. (NB to author, sex changes are not only done in Sweden any more). In absentia, but talked about all too much-- the former sheriff who decided to honor his vows to his insane, pregnant wife and a rich, hot looking former suiter that the heroine had turned down in a rather humiliating way. All of these characters are two dimensional and wooden.
The mystery is also dreadful, involving a dead 25 year old author who had written a best seller exposing a lot scandals. She also happened to be the beneficiary of a trust if she was unmarried as of her twenty-fifth birthday. One of the questions to be answered is whether she was 25 as of her time of death. (NB to the author, time of death is tricky and a second autopsy is not likely to be the method used to contest time of death.)
Don't bother with this one.
Daddy's Girls Rule Delta!.......2007-01-24
Sarah Booth Delaney's mama "raised her right," but she also taught her to think for herself. It's hard for Sarah Booth to conform to Southern Belle standards, but when a finishing school graduate is horribly murdered (Quentin McGee had just launched a scandalous tell-all book before her death), Sarah Booth has to resort to conservative clothing and panty hose. Sunflower County (Mississippi) Sheriff Coleman Peters is on leave, the acting sheriff arrests Quentin's lesbian lover for murder, and the suspect's brother hires Sarah Booth to prove her innocence. This is one of the Delta Darling's most dangerous cases, but, in my humble opinion, one of her most rewarding. Sarah Booth is my kind of gal!

Book #2 in the Aurora Teagarden Mysteries.......2007-01-26
"A Bone To Pick" by Charlaine Harris is the second book in her series about librarian Aurora Teagarden. (The first being Real Murders: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, Bk. 1) In this mystery, Aurora aka Roe is stunned when she inherits a house and a large sum of money from elderly Jane Engle after her death. That's not the only thing Jane left her- there's a human skull in the window seat. On top of that, the people that have just moved in across the street from Jane's house are none other than Roe's ex-boyfriend Arthur Smith and his new pregnant wife.
After some snooping around, Roe finds out that a couple of people in the neighborhood have gone missing. One went out for diapers and never came home; another skipped out on his rent and left during the night. Was one of them killed? Is it their skull? Roe is determined to find out!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I fully recommend the rest in this series. Next is Three Bedrooms, One Corpse: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, followed by The Julius House: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, Bk. 4, Dead Over Heels: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, Bk. 5, "Fool And His Honey: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, Bk. 6, Last Scene Alive (Aurora Teagarden Mysteries), and Poppy Done To Death: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, Bk. 8.

Aurora Teagarden ~ Woman of Leisure..........2003-01-31
When Aurora "Roe" Teagarden attends Jane Engle's funeral, it is more of a kindly gesture to someone who used to belong to the Real Murders club with her before the club stopped meeting. Roe considered Jane a friend, but didn't really know her that well. So she is startled when Jane's lawyer informs her that she is the heir to Jane's estate. Suddenly, Roe goes from scraping by on a part-time librarian's salary to an heiress with a home, nice jewelry and $550,000 in savings. Roe isn't quite sure what to do with herself and her newfound wealth. However, she realizes that all is not as rosy as it seems when Jane's lawyer keeps hinting that there may be some problem that she needs to solve for Jane. When Roe goes to check out Jane's house, it has been broken into and searched, but nothing was stolen. Roe is determined to figure out the secret and eventually discovers Jane's hiding place and pulls out - a human skull. As Roe waffles between handing the skull over to the police or tossing it in the river, her life takes a few unexpected turns. Her ex-boyfriend, a police officer, moves in across the street with his new, very pregnant wife; she starts dating a minister; her mother gets married; her best friends gets engaged; her new neighbors are throwing welcoming parties for her; she inherits a cat who soon has kittens; everyone in town is gossiping about her relationship with Jane and her inheritance - the list goes on and on. Needless to say, Roe doesn't spend a whole lot of time investigating who the owner of the skull was until the rest of the skeleton is discovered at the end of the street...
This is the second installment in the Aurora Teagarden mystery series (Real Murders is #1) and it is a pleasant, fast read. I read it in a couple of hours and enjoyed it, but it isn't anything that is very memorable. The mystery is rather lacking because we don't know who the skull belongs to, but Roe doesn't really go out and try to figure out who it belongs to - the answer just kind of falls in her lap at the end of the story. Charlaine Harris does introduce some interesting new characters, however, and she keeps up with a few of the old ones from Real Murders so it was nice to see time passing in the small town. I would have liked to see a bit more of a plot regarding the mystery side of this "mystery", but this book is more of a fiction novel with a little bit of a mystery on the side. Still an enjoyable read, but I must say that the Lily Bard series (Shakespeare's Landlord, Shakespeare's Champion, etc.) is far superior than the Aurora Teagarden series.
Not a Favorite Aurora Teagarden Mystery.......2003-01-01
I have been looking forward to reading "A Bone to Pick" to read how Aurora Teagarden comes into her inheritance. The story opens with Aurora Teagarden attending weddings for both her mother and Arthur Smith and the funeral of Jane Engle. Aurora then inherits Jane's house and finds a sinister surprise inside.
Aurora, as always, has lots of character detail and internal dialogue (love her hair : >), but
I was disappointed to find little charactization for benefactress and Real Murders ex-cohort Jane Engle. There was also little sleuthing in this story. Aurora gets to know her new neighbors through a couple of social events, but does not beat the street to try to solve the mystery. This installment shares the great atmosphere and the small-town setting with the rest of the series, but I didn't buy the mechanics of the story. Neither did I appreciate that Jane Engle just "didn't have time" to put things back the way she found them.
"A Bone to Pick" is effective in that it made me want to read the rest of the series, but mostly to fill in the blanks this story leaves and see if Harris' characterizations develop further.
Aurora the heiress.......2000-06-26
In this second book of the series, Aurora Teagarden inherits a house and a substantial amount of money from Jane Engle, a former high school librarian. Aurora is surprised at this bequest since she had not counted Jane as a close friend. However, she becomes even more surprised at what she discovers in Jane's house. She becomes acquainted with the neighbors on Jane's street while assessing the possibility that they were involved in a crime which she thinks was committed in the neighborhood. A light and enjoyable read.
Good Book and Wonderful Character.......1998-08-24
This book is a fine book and is a great read. Ms. Harris has a wonderful way of developing a Southern character of today. Interesting mystery development
Book Description
In a world riven by conflict, reconciliation is not always possible -- but it offers one of the few paths to peace for a troubled nation or a troubled soul. In Bone to Pick, bestselling author and Newsweek editor Ellis Cose offers a provocative and wide-ranging discussion of the power of reconciliation, the efficacy of revenge, and the possibility of forgiveness.
People increasingly are searching for ways to put the demons of the past to rest. That search has led parents to seek out the murderers of their children and torture victims to confront their former tormentors. In a narrative drawing on the personal and dramatic stories of people from Texas to East Timor, Cose explores the limits and the promise of those encounters.
Bone to Pick is not only the story of victims who have found peace through confronting the source of their pain; it is also a profound meditation on how the past shapes the present, and how history's wounds, left unattended, can fester for generations. Time does not heal all, Cose points out. Memories and anger can linger long beyond a human lifespan. The descendants of Holocaust survivors and African slaves alike feel the effects of their forebears' pain -- and in some cases are still demanding restitution.
What is behind the movement for reparations? Why are truth-and-reconciliation commissions sprouting all over the world? Why are old wars being refought and old wounds being reopened? In Bone to Pick, Ellis Cose provides a moving and nuanced guide to such questions as he points the way toward a more harmonious world.

Or Can We All Live in a Semblance of Peace?.......2005-04-19
Mr. Cose is an editor of 'Newsweek' magazines and has written six other books. The Ford Foundation grant allowed him to travel to South Africa, Ghana, Peru, New Zealand, and othe places. He touches on slavery (how the past shapes the present) and KKK (the challenges of life). He wants justice, revenge, mediation, retribution for the crimes against victims of various wars and races.
We have all been unjustly harmed to some extent, and somehow we managed to deal with it. Yet to deal with pain or trauma is not the same as being free of it. He seeks repentance, negotiations, reparations (money) for unspeakable truths and harm. Forgetting is not an option as the hurt festers and must be addressed at the appropriate time to rectify the wrongs of the past.
Memories of the 'wrong' linger and must be dealt with in some fashion. Recognition of the wrongdoing is essential for reconciliation and forgiveness. You can choose to forgive, enjoy a sweet revenge, let go of resentments, or you can demand restitution for physical and emotional damages.
He gives his take on the surrender of Saddam Hussein. Ultimately, it comes down to t he human need for hope, the consequent capacity for faith, and demand for the ultimate punishment. Else society would be sanctioning wrongdoing.
He has appeared on 'Nightline, 'Dateline,' NPR, PBS News Hour, and ABC 'Good Morning America.'

Book Description
Against her good judgement, Phoebe Fairfax, Canada’s most reluctant sleuth, is once again embroiled in a hilarious mystery, this time involving old bones, overwhelming conceit, unrequited love – and murder. Phoebe is on her way to the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Alberta to interview the great paleoanthropologist Dr. Graham Maxwell at the start of his world tour to exhibit his latest find – ossils that he claims are startling evidence of a whole new hominoid species, one that apparently appreciated and played music.
But not everyone thinks Maxwell is right. When Phoebe finds Maxwell’s dead body in the museum the morning after the exhibition’s launch and the fossils themselves go missing, she realizes she was definitely in the wrong place at the wrong time. As much as she’d like to leave the investigation to the police, the case won’t leave her alone, not until she discovers who hated Maxwell or his theory so passionately he or she was prepared to murder the celebrated scientist.
Also entangled in this murderous comedy are Dr. Adam Woodward, who spends his summers trying to see how far back along the evolutionary path a modern man can go and still survive; Simon Visser, who has toiled in obscurity alongside Maxwell ever since he was caught faking data for his doctoral dissertation; Gillian Collins, Maxwell’s lovestruck assistant; and Stan Darling, Maxwell’s former classmate, now a retired oil geologist and leader of the anti-Darwinist Geologists for Jesus.
Bones to Pick is a laugh-out-loud novel, peopled with some of the most likeable and eccentric characters you’ll ever meet; people thrown together by one man’s fatal ambition and another’s stubborn belief that Darwin was wrong.
