A good read July 2, 2010
By D. Love
Format:Kindle Edition
It's Christmas and Jeff is spending the day with Maggie's family, who are not very welcoming, and we watch as the concern mounts in Jeff's mind that something is amiss. This was a great short story as the anticipation and nervousness of what is going to happen kept me glued to the pages. The author's words take you into the scene and throughout the story you definitely feel what Jeff is feeling. A good job, well done.

A Lesson in Humanity December 22, 2011
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I adore the Jeff Resnick series by L.L. Bartlett and 'Bah! Humbug' is a great continuation. There have only been a few famous authors that are able to write fabulous serials fit for a newspaper or magazine or, even a television series. We have Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with Sherlock Holmes, Armistead Maupin with Tales of the City, and Alexander McCall Smith, with the 44 Scotland Street series. Ms. Bartlett figures well among them.

Jeff Resnick is a man who was mugged and left with a brain injury. While he slowly heals living at home with his brother, Jeff discovers he has a type of precognition. Throughout the series we learn he is able to solve crimes with his 'visions.'

In this Kindle edition which takes us from the novels (full-length movie) to a serial, Jeff goes with his lovely lady friend, Maggie to her family home to celebrate Christmas. Jeff senses non-acceptance shortly into the drive, but he loves Maggie and will put up with almost anything to please her.

This novella is about acceptance of fellow humans. It is set against the Holiday Season of Christmas which as many know is a time of stress as well as joy. When a crisis occurs we are shown a side of humanity that perhaps we would like to ignore.

I look forward to seeing where Jeff goes next.

I have to change my review I was too stupid to know that it was a short version for now and I LOVE IT! I am hooked on this series and look forward to the next section for this book and all the other books in this series.
