Two Sex Books with Victor Gischler

Fiction

Vampire a Go-Go by Victor Gischler. The latest from the writer of Go-Go Girls of the Apocalypse. The back of the book says little about the plot. Something about werewolves, alchemists and gun-toting Jesuits. None of that matters because every on of Gischler's books have been quite good. He always has a good bit of humor within a quickly moving story. So try it out.

The Spire by Richard North Patterson. Mark Darrow grew up poor but brilliant. A local college prof mentored Darrow who became a "superb trial lawyer". Darrow is asked to be the college President and finds that a murder case from when Darrow was a student there may have resulted in a wrong conviction.

Green by Ted Dekker. Thriller of some kind. Something about a guy falling asleep and waking up two thousand years later in a new Eden split by the Green and the Black Forest.

Enchanted Dreams: erotic tales of the supernatural by Nancy Madore. Our other Madore book, Enchanted Again, checks out pretty well so I ordered this one. Seven stories.

As I was settling into the warm, sudsy water of Vincent's bathtub, there came a tap on the bathroom door.

"Yes?"

The door slipped open a few inches, "Would you like more wine?"

"I would, and company, too, if you care to stay," I heard myself responding. The warm water and wine were having their effect.

He closed the lid of the toilet and sat down there.

"How old are you?" I asked him.

"Eighty-five." he said with a smug smile. He look like a man in his early thirties.

"Still in your prime," I murmured. He laughed.

"Is it true vampires live forever?" I asked.
Vampires? O crap, not again.

NonFiction

Domestic Sex Goddess by Kate Taylor. Some sex themed nonfiction goes out and some doesn't. There is no telling. Nina Hartley's Guide to Total Sex and Confessions of a Naughty Mommy checked out okay. But, Secrets of the Sexually Satisfied Women has done twice as well. Some things never check out. Like Staying Safe: a teen's guide to sexually transmitted diseases, we've had that for four years and it has never left the shelf. This one shows boobs and buttocks.

Large Print

Even Money by Felix Frances and Dick Frances.

Intervention by Robin Cook.

92 Pacific Boulevard by Debbie Macomber.
