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 a free e-mail notification when future issues are posted, approximately every two weeks. I've posted a preliminary edition of 2003 Stand-outs, a list of the best books I've read and reviewed in 2003. I'll update this list as the year finishes, with a final version in mid-January. Check this page for a great list of gift ideas for all ages and interests. Click on the title of the book to read the complete review. Happy reading! November 24, 2003Nonfiction
