Book Review: People Who Eat Darkness by Richard Lloyd Parry

July 19, 2012 by Allie

People Who Eat Darkness: The Fate of Lucie Blackman by Richard Lloyd Parry My rating: 5 of 5 stars I saw some buzz about this book when reading blogs and emails. As a true crime aficionado, I was immediately interested. One reviewer even compared People Who Eat Darkness to Truman Capote's In Cold Blood (a personal favorite of mine). Oddly, when I went to the bookstore, I … [Read more...] about Book Review: People Who Eat Darkness by Richard Lloyd Parry

Book Review: Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand

June 25, 2012 by Allie

Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption by Laura Hillenbrand My rating: 5 of 5 stars Unbroken is a well-researched and well-written work that is by turns humorous, heartbreaking and inspiring.

The horrors that the Pacific POW's endured were unspeakable and … [Read more...] about Book Review: Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand

Book Review: In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson

Book Review: Darker than Night by Tom Henderson

January 12, 2012 by Allie

The disappearance of two hunters in the Michigan Woods in 1985 took 18 years to solve and prosecute. This story was not so much a who-done-it as it was a how-to-prove-it. The break in the case came when one eyewitness to the brutal homicide was eventually persuaded to testify by state policeman Bronco Lesneski. He worked the case every day. He spent many of his off hours … [Read more...] about Book Review: Darker than Night by Tom Henderson

Book Review: Methland by Nick Reding

December 5, 2011 by Allie

This book was a recommended read from my Books-A-Million desk calendar, so I borrowed it from the library. It proved to be a fascinating study about the political, economic, and social factors that have led to the wide-spread epidemic of meth use throughout small-town America. By focusing on the small town of Oelwein, Iowa and getting to know the addicts, suppliers, doctors, … [Read more...] about Book Review: Methland by Nick Reding
