Formerly Known As Food by Kristin Lawless explains all of the problems with America's food. Most of the information should come as no surprise, but the scope of damage is shocking. I expected for this book to read like a textbook. The book was enjoyable to read although a bit repetitive at times. At the end the author offered some "solutions" but no feasible way for them to be enacted. A system broken due to big corporations and government apathy cannot be fixed by more government involvement. It does discuss important information regarding the issues facing current and future generations. Formerly Known as Food was much more enjoyable to read than similar books on the same topic.
Kate Carlisle's twelfth book in the Bibliophile Mystery series is Buried in Books. Brooklyn has everything under control for her upcoming wedding and is confident she can also handle presenting at a librarian's convention in town. She gets a big surprise when her two college roommates show up at the convention. None of them have seen each other since her roommates argued over a guy in college. The friends try to one up each other with rare book gifts. When one of the friends is found dead buried in a pile of books, Brooklyn sets out to find the murderer. I have read previous books in the series, but it is really not necessary. This series features a strong female character, and this book is no exception. It is action packed until the end!
