Fiction
The Stranger by Harlan Coben. Bill Crider linked to an interview with Coben. COben doesn't work at home because he gets distracted by house and home issues. He'll go to the grocery store coffee shop.
Murder on the Champ De Mars by Cara Black. Another murder in Paris. Page 54 says, "A pang hit her." Sweet! the end papers have city maps.
The Edge of Dreams by Rhys Bowen. Rhys is a guy's name, right? Let me check...nope. Rhys is a woman. Hey, Bowen was been awarded an Edgar, and Anthony, and a Agatha award. That means Bowen's books are a big deal.
Life or Death by Michael Robotham. I like this guy's novels but have not read one in a while.
The Fifth Heart by Dan Simmons. I like this guy's novels, too. Another historical novel mixing real people with characters.
Non Fiction
Understanding Your Cat or Kitten by H. Ellen Whiteley, DVM. One of the cats living in my house, Vampire Fang, has been hassling the dog, Petra. I think the cat is jealous that Petra gets to go outside. Vampire Fang will hover by the back door and bolt outside if you are not watching. My wife and I will holler at the children, "Don't let the cat out!"
Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Son of the Son: the Don Rosa Library Vol. 1. Republished comics in a nice big hardcover. Page 62 says, "Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

102 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum by Cathy Duffy. Nice cover.
Photographs
The outside wall of the stage in Library Hall was stenciled by Jill Kessenich who donated her time and expertise to the project. Jill also designed the library remodel.
Outdoor ice skating rink in Commons Park the night of February 18, 2015. There was a cold front, temp was -9 Fahrenheit. That's -22 Celsius, Dunedin.
I do not recall if I posted this video of February's Knickerbocker Ice Festival. The weather was perfect. Cold enough for ice and snow but warm enough, and no wind, to be comfortable outside.

Quarterly Issue by James Patterson
Fiction
Endangered by C.J. Box. Joe Pickett solves crime in WY or MT. I'm note sure. You'll have to check the setting yourself. Maybe ND? I hear Box is a good dude.
Cold Betrayal by J.A. Jance. Some sort of mystery.
NYPD Red 3 by James Patterson Amalgamated Writing Services and Marshall Karp. Karp is an uncommon name. Karp sounds like the name of a P.I. in a novel, good thing Karp writes P.I. novels.
A Dangerous Place by Jacqueline Winspear. Judging by the photo this is a wartime novel set on Gibraltar.
Last One Home by Debbie Macomber. The cover photo says "Expensive gazebo I never use." The graphic artist says, "I'm gonna add some lanterns to this sucker. And here is another. And another. And another. Aw, heck, why stop now?"
The Assassin by Clive Cussler and Justin Scott. No matter where a Cussler novel is set the cover will be covered in flames.
Forgiveness 4 You by Ann Bauer. The cover says Bauer wrote The Forever Marriage. I never heard of that book but will look it up in out catalog. Yeah, we don't have it but copies are available from other libraries.
Mrs. Grant and Madame Julie by Jennifer Chiaverini. Another Civil War era novel, I suppose. Yeah, kinda. Grant's wife owned a woman who was also her "best friend". Yeah, well...
World Gone By by Dennis Lehane. Crime and mobsters in 1943 Miami.
Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro. Big name literary guy's latest novel. Ooh, dig the map on the end papers.
NonFiction
Dead Wake: the last crossing of the Lusitania by Erik Larson. More non fiction by the popular Larson. Sweet, more maps in the end papers.
Senate Intelligence Committee Report on Torture: committee study of the Central Intelligence Agency's detention and interrogation program by Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
