Carter Books

This is an extraordinary work of scholarship, quite in a league of its own in this field. Carter is sharp, informed and passionate. Her writing on the German woman in film is particularly insightful. Read.

David Carter has written a very short, very concise book on the craft of writing a play. It deeply explores all important aspects of playwriting i.e. plot, theme, character, dialogue, structure, the first draft and the re-write all in about 135 pages. The book is written in a very clear organised manner that is easily understood by the most inexperienced writer. There is very little about playwriting not included in this book.

This book is uniquely set up with personal letters to, from and about Carter from his early years through the discovery of Tut's tomb. The letters are chronological and are accompanied by an equal share of color and B & W photographs including many artifacts, digs and finds before Tut, some of Carter's original dig catalog drawings and paintings.

A fascinating "mini" history from the perspective of Carter and, especially, his contemporaries. Easy and fun reading for anyone interested in a "behind the scenes" look at the man who discovered king Tutankhamun's tomb.

If you 've ever interested about The tomb of Tutankhamen and the man who spent his most of life on it.You should have this book.

Brown boils down how humans interact with one another. He has a strong understanding of how we work.

We are now pulled into the life of Beatrice Gerard [first met in #4 A Wedding For Emily] learning the reason behind her "divorce".
Beatrice is visited by Samantha Brant [#2]to tell her that she has seen a man in danger and that she saw Beatrice standing vaguely behind him. When Bea asked Samantha to describe the man, it turns out to fit the description of her former husband, thought by everyone to be dead.

WoW! does this get intense. We soon find out that Beatrice and Joseph Whitedeer worked under deep cover for a man named Tobias Smith. Tobias's code name at that time was "The Manager", Beatrice's code name was "Thistle", so named by Joe. At first Bea knew Joe only as "Coyote".

Boy, is this story action packed and fast paced. It appears that there is a "Mole" in the organization and "Coyote" went deep undercover to discover who it was. Taking advantage of a car bomb to fake his death.

When her husband of a year supposedly died Bea left the organization and lived in Smytheshire in "seclusion" for five years keeping house for her grandfather, Justin Gerard. [he appeared in #4 in support of Emily and her son Josh]

Oh, it also appears that she has inherited the same powers as her brother, Ryder. [but keep this a secret.] Oh boy, wait till "Coyote" finds out.

Ah, how intricately these stories are woven. Before leaving Smytheshire Bea stops of at Zebulon's place to find out if he knows of a "Seeker" [#5] She needs help to place the location of the man Samantha saw in her grandmothers crystal ball.

I am not going to tell you how she finds "Coyote" after thinking him dead for five years. But there is more intrigue and action and suspense to make this story truly fascinating.
AND HARD TO PUT DOWN.

Keep track that other "operatives" are involved and pay attention to their roles in this story. You will meet "Knight", blonde and fabulously good looking [so they say] and ordered to take out "Coyote". [it was plotted for "Coyote" to take out "Thistle" [grin] but she put the move on him.] "Knight" shows in #10.

Then there is "Raven", the right hand man and guard to Tobias.
And remember Tobias is a Smith. [Yeah! right.] Tobias shows up in Smytheshire and visits Zebulon, taking "Raven" [#9] with him as a personal driver.

Ho! Ho! Ho! E. August has written the very best Saga that I have ever read in the constrainment of Silhouette Romance but this Special Edition book has topped them all.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED --M - definitely a set of books worth keeping and reading again.

This book has strong information about asthma as well as a real child's experience to relate it to. My son liked reading it and, as medical director of a pediatric asthma educational program, I am purchasing some for our grade school participants. I think it helps kids to understand they are not the only one with an illness and that an illness can be incorporated into everyday life, if you are a partner with your doctor in helping to control it.

My Grandmother Louise wrote this book based off a true story about her Mother, Ida. This story was beautifully written and illustrated. Louise would go school to school sharing this book with young readers. It teaches values about love and family that aren't as prominent anymore in main stream culture. I highly recommend this book to anyone, any age, looking for a children's book that goes far past a story.

In her novel, "If You Really Loved Me, You'd Take Out the Garbage," B.B. Carter gives the reader an unlikely heroine in Lillian Frebusch. Lillian is a 35 year old woman who is stuck in a marriage that is dead, although she is not yet aware it is dead. Her frequently absent husband is a controlling tyrant, who rules Lillian and the household whether he is home or away on one of his many business trips. Lillian is the mother of twin girls, whom she adores. She is supported by her best friend, Selma, and her daughters' caretaker, Sadie. Both women provide Lillian with much needed friendship and love, and they are there to help her through anything that life throws at her.

Lillian is a true klutz, and her frequent misadventures due to klutziness and poor judgment endear her to the reader. Her innocence and naiveté at the age of 35 are almost unbelievable, yet Ms. Carter has done a splendid job of showing the reader from the very beginning all of the things that contribute to Lillian's unworldly knowledge. By doing this, Ms. Carter has provided the reader with a main character who is loveable and easily relatable. As Lillian navigates her world, Selma is by her side, eager and willing to contribute to her "education". When Lillian finally comes to realize and accept that her marriage is over, she is in no danger of facing life alone. She has her friends, and a loveable boss who is surly on the outside, but in reality is very kindhearted. She regains control of her life, and gives her daughters a true role model to look up to.

"If You Really Loved Me, You'd Take Out the Garbage" is a sentiment that can ring true in any marriage. It is the small things that make or break us, and Lillian shows us that we never need to settle for less than we deserve.
