Block, Francesca Lia Necklace Of Kisses: A Novel
Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A. HarperCollins 2005 0-06-077751-6 / 9780060777517 1st Edition. 1st Impression. Hard Cover New New Signed by Author
lightly bumped compliments of the 'boys in brown' during shipping to me. Pictures on abnormalbooks dot com. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Readers who remember Weetzie Bat and My Secret Agent Lover Man's first kiss (a "kiss about apple pie a la mode with the vanilla creaminess melting in the pie heat") from their YA incarnation may be crushed to learn that they've shared no kisses since September 11, 2001. My Secret Agent Lover Man, though Weetzie's long-time lover, "was now just Max"; Weetzie, whom readers first met in 1989's Weetzie Bat, is now 40. As the novel opens, Weetzie packs a small bag and checks herself into a pink hotel in L.A., "seeking the kiss she had lost." There Weetzie embarks on a quest of sorts. She meets Shelley, whose kiss reveals that she is a mermaid and is the first of the title's necklace of kisses. Each kiss injects a bit more enchantment into Weetzie's life. Block carefully construes the kisses as complete in and of themselves. Weetzie never betrays Max; this is a novel of healing. Weetzie's many fans will most appreciate this reunion with the heroine and her Secret Agent Lover Man, Dirk and Duck and many more. But those just meeting Block's whimsical entourage and sparkling prose will also appreciate the book's message: that magic can be found in stolen moments and, in Dirk's words, though "love is a dangerous angel," it's well worth the risk. (Aug.) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information. Library Journal Fifteen years ago, YA readers were introduced to the funky mystical world of Weetzie Bat, a lovable punk flower child. Now, followers of the controversial but popular "Dangerous Angels" series will rejoice as Weetzie and her cohorts are brought back magically to life in Block's first adult novel and sixth series entry (after Baby Be-Bop, 1996). Rising self-doubts over life choices send 40-year-old Weetzie into a midlife crisis. Escaping from her once passionate and now staid relationship with longtime boyfriend Max, she books herself into a pink hotel inhabited by mythical creatures. Dreamlike interactions with a captured mermaid and a sexy room service faun, among other beings, are interwoven with the emotional realities and support of her friends and family. With vivid imagery, Block, the 2005 recipient of the ALA Margaret A. Edwards Award for Lifetime Achievement in young adult fiction, has conjured another enchanting and lyrically surreal journey of love and self-discovery. Recommended for popular fiction collections.-Joy St. John, Henderson Dist. P.L., NV Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.

Block, Lawrence Burglar on the Prowl
New York, NY, U.S.A. Morrow/AvoNova 2004 0-06-019830-3 / 9780060198305 1st Edition. 1st Impression. Hard Cover New New Signed by Author
New in new DJ protected by Brodart mylar dj cover. Signed by author directly on full-title page. From The Critics Publisher's Weekly You'd think that Block, with more than 50 books to his credit, would run out of ideas, but as this 10th in his Burglar series shows (after 1999's The Burglar in the Rye), he's as fresh, witty and inventive as ever. The author builds his plot on stupefying coincidences, but not to worry-everything eventually meshes. A friend asks Bernie Rhodenbarr, confirmed New Yorker, used-book dealer and gentleman burglar, to rob a mob-connected plastic surgeon who stole the friend's mistress. He agrees, and cases the doctor's house in Riverdale, the Bronx. But Bernie is restive and, uncharacteristically (because he plans carefully), he breaks into a Manhattan apartment on a whim and almost gets caught, hiding under the bed while a woman is date-raped. Next day a customer is shot near his bookstore, a mysterious migr couple is murdered, a former Latvian war criminal is reported in New York and Bernie's apartment is ransacked. These crimes seem unrelated in such a large city, but Bernie finds a common thread. In the end, Bernie assembles 22 people (including lawmen) in the surgeon's living room and, Charlie Chan style, explains each participant's role and, where appropriate, crime. Lesser hands would not bring off this breathtaking performance, but in Block's it's seamless and hilarious. Quirky characters like Bernie's pals Carolyn Kaiser, the dog groomer, and cop Ray Kirschmann; an insider's love of New York; and a slew of wonderful puns add to the fun. (Mar. 16) Forecast: MWA Grand Master Block recently received the British Crime Writers' Association Cartier Diamond Dagger Award, only the third American to be so honored. A 100,000 printing and a 40-city author tour should ensure a run up most bestseller lists. Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information. Library Journal After Small Town, Block's very dark standalone novel about the aftermath of 9/11, his new Bernie Rhodenbarr mystery comes as comic relief. This time the antiquarian book dealer/burglar is asked by a friend to burgle the home of the man who stole the friend's girlfriend. But a few days before the scheduled break-in, Bernie begins to feel itchy and decides to go on the prowl: "Walking the dark streets, gloves in one pocket, tools in the other, risking life and liberty for no good reason. I knew what I was doing, and I damned well should have known better." His little misadventure leads him to an encounter with a date rapist, accusations of murder, and the burglary of his own home. While the book sinks at the end with an overly convoluted drawing room scene, Block keeps the reader entertained throughout with his charming, eccentric characters and trade-mark humor. (One running gag: Bernie keeps trying to read the latest John Sandford best seller, Lettuce Prey, about a serial killer of vegetarians, but is continually interruped.) For most mystery collections. [Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 11/15/03.]-Wilda Williams, "Library Journal" Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
