Hunter's Moon
AuthorGarry Kilworth
ISBN0044406150
Well, I sure hope I can do justice to this.

Hunter's Moon is an allegory of emotion biting, realistic proportions. This is animal fiction at it's prime; adult, realistic and competent. Garry Kilworth absolutely nails personification here. Unlike a portion of animal related books, these...
Tomorrow's Sphinx
AuthorClare Bell
ISBN0689504020
The first time I read this book, I was... oh, about ten or twelve. It came in a large pile of five-cent books at a flea market and was missing both the covers, so I had no idea what I was getting into when I opened it. All I knew was that it said "Tomorrow's Sphinx" on the spine, with this itty bitty icon of a black...

Thomasina
AuthorPaul Gallico
ISBN0930330935
From what I knew (or thought I knew) about this book, I’d expected an adventure story of cat who gets put down but manages to survive and find her way back to her girl—and a children’s story. But while it was that at one level, it was so much more, and certainly not a children’s story. It is the story...

The Woman Who Loved Reindeer
AuthorMeredith Ann Pierce
ISBN0152017992
I gave The DarkAngel (of The DarkAngel Trilogy) by Meredith Ann Pierce three stars when I read it in early 2009. Absence made my heart grow fonder, or something, and I later upgraded it to a fox force five. I would tell my sister about it and that made it a different kind of reading experience. Something like...
The Blue Hawk
AuthorPeter Dickinson
ISBN0330415468
This book caught my eye purely based on the name of the author -- I grew up loving the movie "Flight of Dragons," and not only did Peter Dickinson write the book that movie is based on, but the filmmakers named the main character in his honor. A curious reason to pick up a book, perhaps, but it at least caught...
