Let's see, my list for February (well I finished one this morning, but I'm gonna include it):

Treating Survivors of Childhood Abuse: Psychotherapy for the Interrupted Life, by Marylene Cloitre, et. al.
Burnt Offerings, by Laurell K. Hamilton
The Almost Moon, by Alice Sebold
Why Marriages Succeed or Fail: And How You Can Make Yours Last, by John Gottman
The Lost Gate, by Orson Scott Card
Trust After Trauma: A Guide to Relationships for Survivors and Those Who Love Them, by Aphrodite Matsakis
The Lover's Dictionary: A Novel, by David Levithan
Captain's Fury, by Jim Butcher
Testimony, by Anita Shreve

Looking at the list together, I was kind of underwhelmed this month. I thoroughly enjoyed The Lost Gate and Captain's Fury (and I use the two books on trauma regularly with my clients), but the more "serious" fiction was all good, but not GREAT.

I'm sorry February felt a bit like a blah month for your reading, though I'm glad all the books you read seem to have been at the very least enjoyable! ^-^ Here's to hoping March will bring you more terrific books!
