Welcome to Sonderbooks, an e-zine of book reviews by Sondra Eklund. In this site, you can find good books for yourself or for friends. You can hear about books to read, talk about books you've read, and order your own copies. Subscribe, and I'll send you free e-mails of future issues, approximately every two weeks. Be sure to check Sonderbooks' Stand-outs 2003 for my favorite books reviewed in 2003. Sembach Library customers, click here for a list of new books at the library that I've already reviewed. I've got a new page called Why Read? with rationalizations for reading. Click on the title of the book to read the complete review. Happy reading! March 8, 2004Nonfiction
