Do I judge a book by it's cover? You bet I do. Just look at " The Coroner's Lunch " by Colin Cotterill. The colours are warm and inviting. The photograph of the street sweeper is exotic and mysterous. The scalpel in the left hand top corner. This is going to take me somewere interesting and I want to read it. Will it be as good as I'd hoped? At half the cover price, $8, or $4 if I use my credits, it's worth a go.

" The Spiderwick Chronicles " What a great story. I really do enjoy so many of the young adult tittles. A different world. One of faeries, goblins, dwarfs and many other odd charters. The Grace children discover them all. Well and I just love the little book. A beautiful cover, uncut pages and the perfect size to fit into your hand. More and more I'm begninning to apprectiate a book for how it feels in your hands. It's like I want to carrry this one around with me all day.

Seethe, Soak, Steam, Stew, Steep, Brew, Boil, Distill, Ferment, Mull or maybe just plain old Concoct. Who really knows. Katherine's stuffed this contraption full of cherries, plumbs, grapes. Some of the juice can be a little sour but it's all good. Well, and good luck in that we haven't crack a cold jar poring in the hot liquid. Yet. A nice treat in the middle of winter.
