		<title>Before Green Gables</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Carole says:
Authorized prequel to the Anne of Green Gables series.  It tells the story of Anne’s life from birth to age 11 when she is adopted by Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert.  The story fills in the gaps about this precocious child before she arrives on Prince Edward Island.  Sure to be enjoyed by all who [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=99&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Change of Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Marcia says:
I recently listened to Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult and enjoyed it just as much as her other novels. Once again I was captivated by Picoult&#8217;s choice of current hot topics that challenge the reader&#8217;s belief systems.  In Change of Heart, Shay Bourne, a death row prisoner, is convicted of murdering a woman&#8217;s family [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=94&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Myth of Alzheimer&#8217;s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lyn says:
Wow!  What a different view of ‘brain aging’!  I couldn’t put it down.  Whitehouse says he has come from a prominent position in drug therapy research to a completely different view of what has been called Alzheimer’s disease.  He wants us to realize that we need to work with people to see what they [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=91&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Lunch at the Piccadilly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Regan says:
While waiting to get your hands on Clyde Edgerton’s latest, The Bible Salesman, you might want to stop by Rosehaven where Aunt Lil will entertain you for an hour or two.  Lunch at the Piccadilly is another sweet, funny and wise slice of pie novel by Edgerton.  We can all learn so much from [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=88&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Fieldwork</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Suzanne says:
Mischa Berlinski&#8217;s novel evoked the best and the least appealing memories of my own adventure living in Thailand. He clearly understood both the physical and emotional landscape. In capturing the expat experience so beautifully, Mischa shares both the advantages and the loneliness of being &#8220;the other&#8221;. I would recommend this book of cultural immersion to anyone planning [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=82&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Someone Not Really Her Mother</title>

Someone Not Really Her Mother by Harriet Scott Chessman
Read by Myra Platt
Hannah Pearl is forgetting everything. Her life is as good as can be expected, given the advanced stage of her dementia: she lives in a high quality elder care home, and is well taken care of by its staff; her family dotes on [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=79&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Three Cups of Tea</title>
		<description><![CDATA[James says:
How can a tale of drinking tea be such a tale of adventure? Combine the skills of a good journalist with the mountaineering experiences of one compassionate person and voila! the adventures flow. Compassion expressed by almost single-minded devotion to educating the poorest of the poor in Pakistan and Afghanistan seems to be Greg [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=75&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Skeletons at the Feast</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Marcia says:
Chris Bohjalian has done it again by taking us into the human responses and emotions from challenging events. In Skeletons at the Feast, we witness the end of WWII in Hitler&#8217;s Reich. A German family, a forced labor Scottish POW and an escaped Jew, who of all things is disguised as a Wehrmacht soldier, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=72&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Books by Janet Evanovich</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Diane says:
I have been reading books by Janet Evanovich. I can&#8217;t really say which one is my favorite because I love them all. They are funny, full of suspence and they really make you want to keep reading. I have read all but maybe 4 books and I can&#8217;t wait to read the rest. The [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=adultsread.wordpress.com&blog=3661282&post=68&subd=adultsread&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
