An Irish Country Doctor
by Patrick Taylor
Hilarious. Second time I've read it, because I needed to laugh at the signal light scene. Funniest written description I've ever laid eyes on.

Playing with Boys
by Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez
A sort of Sex and the City (similar but not quite the same feel) featuring Latina women. Very entertaining. Its was fun to read about people in a whole different world. But didn't like all the disapproval of stay at home moms (for obvious reasons).
She's an entertaining writer, not appropriate for the prudish though too much sex and fantasy sex.

by Bill Watterson
Its Calvin and Hobbes. Need I say more? Hilarious. Makes me miss finding them in the paper.

Frangipani

Sequel to Breadfruit. This one focuses more on the mother daughter dynamic. Excellent again. Lovely. Wonderful.

Breadfruit
by Celestine Vaite
Excellent. About a Tahitian woman (told in a similar way to the No. 1 Ladies Detective Series book) and the people in her life. Wonderful, charming. A definite keeper.

Scandal of the Season
by Sophia Gee
Takes place in early 18th Century London about the characters in the Alexander Pope poem "The Rape of the Lock." Liked a lot, for one thing I've read a lot about the French during that time and it was interesting to read how the English lived then.
