This was a novel by the gal who writes the SPQ books, and it wasn’t lame, but it was pretty weak. (Seems like non-fiction writers have a hard time transferring to fiction. I can see why)
It was mediocre. I wouldn’t recommend it.

I can’t remember the author’s name on this one. This book was a quick read, and actually approached the same old “I hate my job! NOW WHAT?” in a slightly different way. If I had the energy, I’d do the exercises.
So obviously the book wasn’t inspiring enough to make me do anything. FAIL.
It’s not that I didn’t LIKE the book. It’s just that it wasn’t enough.
This short little paperback was pretty predictable, but the writing was very interesting, in that the style hearkened medieval writing and sentiments. The protagonist is a nun who solves mysteries. Because I’m interested in all things medieval, I was interested in the mores and habits, the room layout, etc. of the characters.
