BOOK REVIEWS

Favorite people, places, and things may vary, but books have always been my passion. As a member of the National Book Critics Circle since 1994, I've been reviewing books for a long time. Here you will find some samples over the years from short reviews to a full page, columns about books, interviews with authors, and holiday and gift book roundups. Books reviewed include: memoir, novels, short stories, food & wine, travel, architecture & design, and essay collections.
