The Beatles Complete Chord Songbook (Guitar Chord Songbook)108 reviews
The Beatles

Hal Leonard Corporation, 2000

WHERE WAS THIS IN THE SIXTIES??
This is a great book that unlocks the masterful songwriting that was the Beatles. Their use of simple open chords peppered with the occasional jazz chord makes this book a great study of 20th Century songwriting at it's best. Where was this in the sixties? 		  
  







  
  
The Complete Sherlock Holmes: All 4 Novels and 56 Short Stories152 reviews
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Bantam Classics, 1986

NIFTY TO HAVE LURKING ON THE KINDLE
I regard my Kindle as a cool sort of entertainment tool I can lug about with me on planes and to the dentist. In order for it to fulfill it's function, it needs to have cool sort of entertainment reading on it and that is exactly what this book is. I have read everything there is to read about Sherlock Holmes so there is nothing new for me in the collection but it is incredibly comforting to ...

Great read for kids

In Other Rooms, Other Wonders94 reviews
Daniyal Mueenuddin

W. W. Norton & Company, 2009

Life, in Pakistan
You are born, you grow up, you fall in love, maybe you have children, you grow old, and you die - everywhere the same. Mueenuddin fills in the details, for the poor, the rich, interactions between the classes - in Pakistan (no terroists involved, thankfully). And makes it well worth reading with his masterful use of lanquage to describe the scenes, situations, motivations, and emotions involved - ... 		  
  







  
  
Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang1 review
Chelsea Handler

Grand Central Publishing, 2010

Laugh Out Loud Funny
What a perfect day for Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang, as I flew today and it took my mind off the horror of traveling. Her new book is hilarious and a truly fun read. She is a crazy, smart, funny woman who also happens to be a very good writer. For a good time, read the book. 		  
  







  
  
The Noticer: Sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective.605 reviews
Andy Andrews

Thomas Nelson, 2009

If you only read one book this year, let this be the one!
It's hard to describe how something can impact a person in so very many ways. Thought provoking only begins to touch the tip of this book. I seldom read a book twice, but already I'm starting over again, almost hungry for Jones to reenter my life through the pages of The Noticer. Andy Andrews is a master storyteller, and a man with the gift of insight into what is truly real in our lives. ... 		  
  







  
  
Frenzy: 60 Stories of Sudden Sex20 reviews

Cleis Press, 2008

Great concept, great book!
This book is an excellent collections of very short erotic stories. These stories are quick and to the point and are very well written. The great thing about it is that if you don't necessarily like the story you're reading, you can easily get through it or skip it entirely and move on to the next which you probably will like. If you like erotica, you will find plenty in this book to like. I ... 		  
  







  
  
Your Favorite Seuss: A Baker's Dozen by the One and Only Dr. Seuss77 reviews
Dr. Seuss

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2004

A Great Collection of Dr Suess, At a Great Price
I have bought this item as a gift twice now. It is an excellent gift for children or parents with small children. The book itself is an oversized hardcover, very sturdy and made to last. It includes the best and most famous Dr Suess stories at a reasonable price. Why spend many times more on the individual volumes when you can get 13 books in one volume? Go Seuss!

David Sedaris

Back Bay Books, 1998

LOVE IT!
I love this book, each chapter draws you in and creates a living breathing environment that captures the reader. David Sedaris is witty, charming, and an imperfectly perfect charater in his books. A must read!

The New Dead: A Zombie Anthology8 reviews
Christopher Golden

St. Martin's Griffin, 2010

Zombies: The 21st Century Monster
Recently I attended a reading with three authors from the book at a local Barnes & Noble in NYC and the stories just jumped right off the page at me. These stories are sure to intrigue even if you are not traditionally interested in sci-fi stories or the zombie genre. I am a high school English teacher, and I think students as well as adults will love this book. Highly recommended!!! 		  
  







  
  
The 7 Habits of Happy Kids22 reviews
Sean Covey

Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, 2008

My seven year old loved it!
The characters in this book were easy to relate to. My seven year old and I read this book together. We read about one habit each night. He couldn't wait to sit down and read each night. We loved the characters and shared good laughs and conversation! I look forward to reading it with him again and again to help him understand and apply these principles to his life. 		  
  







  
  
The Complete C.S. Lewis Signature Classics104 reviews
C. S. Lewis

HarperOne, 2002

A Must Have for Christians
C. S. Lewis has such a logical line of reasoning for explaining Christianity to believers and unbelievers alike. The books contained in this large, hard cover version are all witty, intelligent and entertaining. However, the best thing is Lewis' ability to use descriptive analogies, hyperbole and story telling to convey a message of deep faith.

The Complete Stories64 reviews
Flannery O'Connor

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1971

Completely Unique
This is my favorite book of short stories. I am amazed at how the author can blend such a diverse mixture of feelings into a story. Each story is humorous and heartbreaking. O'Connor has a knack for examining the thoughts in her characters' minds, and although they seem to be a little over the top, the characters are grounded in reality. I enjoy the fact that you can read this book for the ... 		  
  







  
  
Best Women's Erotica 20105 reviews

Cleis Press, 2009

The best!
I have been meaning to read some of these erotica anthologies for quite some time, and now that I have, I will say that I am not disappointed. What I like the best about this volume is that it isn't dumbed down erotica and is written with intellgence, wit and humor. But, most importantely, it's hot and sexy. The story are fun to read and keep you turning the pages long after bedtime has passed! I ... 		  
  







  
  
McSweeney's, No. 33: The San Francisco Panorama1 review

McSweeney's, 2010

if only more newspapers were like this...
While there's been a lot of discussion on whether a $15, one-time only publication can really be held up as a workable business model for a newspaper, the simple fact remains that, as a piece of print production work, the Panorama is a giddy, glorious success. If you've ever looked with longing at photos of your grandparents lounging around in suits and dresses and yearned for the times when our ... 		  
  







  
  
Missionary No More: Purple Panties 215 reviews
Zane

Strebor Books, 2009

Another great anthology from Zane.
Purple Panties takes on some girl on girl action in the more bi-curious stand point. The stories are very adventuresome and really do pique the imagination. However, I would not recommend this one to the squeamish or faint of heart. This is real sex done by real women and it's quite graphic, which I liked. I thought it was refreshing to see such erotica on the market today, for those of us who ...
