56. In The Bleak Midwinter

by Julia Spencer Fleming
Rated 4 Stars

For me the main appeal of this book was that it established the characters and set the scene for the latter books which I enjoyed more.

When a newborn is abandoned and a young mother is brutally murdered, Clare Fergusson, the new Episcopal priest in Millers Kill, New York, must pick her way through the town's secrets. Reissue.

55. The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder

By Vincent Bugliosi
Rated 5+ Stars

BOOK JACKET" In The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder, Bugliosi presents a tight, meticulously researched legal case that puts George W. Bush on trial in an American courtroom for the murder of nearly 4,000 American soldiers fighting the war in Iraq. Bugliosi sets forth the legal architecture and incontrovertible evidence that President Bush took this nation to war in Iraq under false pretenses - a war that has not only caused the deaths of American soldiers but also over 100,000 innocent Iraqi men, women, and children; cost the United States over one trillion dollars thus far with no end in sight; and alienated many American allies in the Western world."

54. Service included

By Phoebe Damrosch
Rated 4

This was a quick little read that I skimmed through parts of. It was mildly entertaining. It would probably appeal more to someone who had worked in the food service industry.

"While Phoebe Damrosch was figuring out what to do with her life, she supported herself by working as a waiter. Before long she was a captain at the New York City four-star restaurant Per Se, the culinary creation of master chef Thomas Keller." "Service Included is the story of her experiences there: her obsession with food, her love affair with a sommelier, and her observations of the highly competitive and frenetic world of fine dining."--BOOK JACKET.
