Directions

Bookworks is located at 4022 Rio Grande Blvd NW, in the Flying Star Plaza. Remember that Montano doesn't intersect Rio Grande.

From 40: Take the Rio Grande exit, and make a right (north) on Rio Grande. Pass several lights, and just north of Griegos (a stoplight is here), we're on the right, next to a Flying Star in a small shopping center.

This Must Be the Place (Hardcover) By Kate Racculia $25.00 “Never has it been more aptly presented than in this engaging novel that love can take us all on unexpected journeys—often when we least expect it. Here is a story that is part mystery, part meditation, part romance, part imperative. It is presented from different points of view: cake-baking Mona, mistress of a boarding house, for whom a long-ago act of love for a friend leads to a complicated romance. Mona's teenage daughter, Oneida, whose tentative forays into love bring her far more than she anticipated. And Arthur, a man widowed too soon, on a path that will lead him to understand who his young wife really was. Kate Racculia has a strong and original voice, and a lot to say about the chances we take—or miss.”—Elizabeth Berg, author of The Last Time I Saw You

The Legend of Colton H. Bryant (Paperback) By Alexandra Fuller $15.00 I have just added The Legend of Colton H. Bryant by Alexandra Fuller to my Top Picks of 2009. The book, a biography set in Wyoming, is a must read mainly because I found Fuller's words to be thought stopping. Her very first sentence did just that. Stopped my thoughts: "This is the story of Colton H. Bryant and the land that grew him." The land that grew him. Hmmm. Not the land where he grew up, not the land he had come to know, not the land that he called home, not the land where he was born, but the land that grew him. In that one sentence she sets the pace and parameters of the story she will tell. We understand there is a partnership that will unfold between this land and that boy. We know that the author is comfortable with the vernacular. We know she will spin this tale as an old timer would, sparsely put, straight forward, and will be accepting of the idiosyncrasies of both land and boy. We suspect that we are in the hands of an expert. And as it turns out, we are. Recommended by Joanne.
