Literary Linkage--Reviews Galore Edition

The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency [Racialicious Review] by Latoya Peterson A review of the new HBO show based on the Alexander McCall Smith novels with racial and cultural and gender considerations all accounted for.

Alexander McCall Smith and His 'Tuneless Wonders' from Paper Cuts (NY Times) by By Deborah Hofmann. A review of a performance by the Author of the No.1 Ladies series and the Really Terrible Orchestra, the amateur orchestra he directs (and which is featured in the Isabel Dalhousie books.)

Stephen King - Not So Scary from Write On Target by Debra Schubert. Quoth Debra: "After being nudged by the universe several times lately, I finally listened and picked up a copy of Stephen (aka Stevie) King's "On Writing" last night. Holy shit, Sherlock! Is this a book, or what?"

REVIEW: Pemberley Manor by Kathryn L. Nelson from AustenBlog . . . she's everywhere Review by Jessica Emerson, a/k/a “JaneFan” of the bookworm's hideout. A really awesome review of a new Pride and Prejudice sequel that actually sounds worthwhile.
