This Week in Books

Whose panties are these? - A collection of women's travel stories edited by Jennifer L. Leo. This book is pretty good, a variety of styles and humour about women on the road. Sometimes just hilarious, sometimes more thoughtful, the book edges close to becoming 'Chicken Soup for Laughing About Travel Misadventures'. A noble goal. Again, not a book to sit down with for long periods, but good.

Sinfest.com - a comic strip online. I've read about 1.5 years so far, about 5 more to go. It often recieves a chuckle.

Watership Down by Richard Adams. Adventures of cute little rabbits with their own lapine language. The author does a good job of reminding us that rabbits are a different species and gets into character with them, but at the same time can't help but make them incredibly human. My mom liked it, I didn't dislike it. Apparently it's a classic.

The 14 Dilemma by Hugh Pentecoste. A charming old-fashioned murder mystery. Short, quick to read, with strong characters and sub-plots that will suck you right into the story.
