Little, Brown Young Readers, 1988

Ben and Me
ISBN 0440420385 (which now belongs to another book) - Really well-done, tongue in cheek "biography" of Benjamin Franklin, a man who is "undeniably stupid at times", according to Amos, the mouse, whose brilliant ideas seem to be all that stand between Franklin and certain death with his crazy experiments. Amos, oldest of 26 children, comes from a family of church mice. Knowing how hard it is ...

One of Many Wonderul Books
I have been a big fan of the Hicks' and probably have read most of their books. They have a talent for getting across their ideas in such a readable and inspiring way.Our emotions are the key or guide to getting to wherever you want to be. This book clearly shows you how- everything you ever want to know about The Law of Attraction ( aka The Secret ) is in it. Joanne Scaglione, Author Living ...

Astonishing X-Men Vol. 3: Torn

14 reviews
Joss Whedon

Marvel Comics, 2007

Best X-Men run ever?
Torn, the third volume in Whedon and Cassaday's stellar Astonishing X-Men run, captures the essence of both the X-Men as a brand and the characters themselves. For those who are familiar with Grant Morrison's run on New X-Men, the Astonishing X-Men series represents the perfect continuation of the X-Men mythos. The cast of AXM is small, allowing Whedon to flesh out the characters in a way that ...

Astonishing X-Men Vol. 1: Gifted

Joss Whedon, John Cassaday

Marvel Comics, 2004

It sucks that Whedon can't keep writing this title
I've been reading the x-men since the 70s and Whedon's writing is probably the best and he has the perfect compliment in John Cassaday. Joss Whedon's scripting and dialogue is sparse but it takes advantage of the various character's history with each other. Reading the comic is fun and satisfying. I was a big fan of buffy due to Whedon's ability to flesh out ordinary characters with silly, ...

Courageous Souls: Do We Plan Our Life Challenges Before Birth?

53 reviews
Robert Schwartz

Whispering Winds Press, 2006

groundbreaking and empowering work
I have found Courageous Souls to both confirm and validate my own experiences as well as my understanding of life's deeper purpose and meanings. This book explains in clear, simple language why "bad things happen" and why sometimes "bad things happen to good people" in a way that helps readers make sense of their own lives and make peace with their choices--however their choices were viewed by ...

Mario Livio

Broadway, 2003

another mysterious and fascinating irrational number like pi and e
Several years ago I prepared a review for amazon on this book. Since that time there have been many others to contribute. There are those like me who found it fascinating and gave it five stars, others that gave it a 4 or a 3 because they quibbled with the author over some mathematical issues and finally agroup that really hated it and found it boring and gave it only 1 or 2 stars. Some of those ...

Astonishing X-Men Vol. 2: Dangerous

Joss Whedon, John Cassaday

Marvel Comics, 2005

Joss Whedon and John Cassaday continue to astonish
Collecting "Astonishing X-Men" issues 7-12, this trade paperback features the X-Men versus a newly-sentient Danger Room. Action, fisticuffs, technology gone wild, it's all here. Sound pretty simple, though, to support a six-issue arc? Well, in the old days of more panels per page and half the story being told with wordy captions, this would have probably been a slam-bang three parter. But I ...

Candlewick, 2006

Courtesy of Teens Read Too
Even the title gives the reader a glimpse of the ostentatious nature of this incredible book. THE ASTONISHING LIFE OF OCTAVIAN NOTHING, TRAITOR TO THE NATION is presented as a young adult title, which should in no way limit it only to the teen audience. Indeed, this book will be a challenge for many high school students -- a challenge well worth the effort. M.T. Anderson immediately immerses ...

Candlewick, 2008

one of the best novels I've read in the past year--YA or otherwise
I LOVED this book. However, it is most certainly not for everyone. This is a challenging read. The language is difficult and even antiquated in parts, but 1) I make it a habit to read with a dictionary nearby so this didn't faze me, and 2) even when I wasn't in the mood to stop reading to look something up, I was still able to figure out the meaning of the text based on the overall context. ...

Jeffrey Bennett

Princeton University Press, 2008

Excellent Book about the search for extraterrestrial life
This book details on a layman's level, the state of the science and technology being used to search for life beyond earth. Bennett does an excellent job explaining the process of science and the development of scientific ideas starting with ancient ideas about the universe and how scientific though has progressed (in fits and starts) to the current day. He also explains how scientific thought ...

The Bronx Zoo: The Astonishing Inside Story of the 1978 World Champion New York Yankees

15 reviews
Sparky Lyle, Peter Golenbock

Triumph Books, 2005

Great Read . .
Though I grew up a total Yankee Hater (and was 15 yrs old when this season took place), the book ranks right up there with "Thin Ice - A Season in Hell with the New York Rangers" as a top quality read for a baseball focus. Probably the best thing about this book is how Golenbock and Lyle are able to put a real personal touch to some of the Yanks that played on that team that year. Nettles is a ...

Astonishing X-Men, Vol. 1

25 reviews
Joss Whedon, John Cassaday

Marvel Comics, 2006

The X-Men Have Never Been Better
This is an undeniably powerful book, and Whedon and Cassaday have finally gotten the X-Men right in all aspects of characterization. Wheddon turns Emma Frost into a wonderfully suspect and sarcastic leader, such as when she gets a man to do her bidding by threatening him with a lifetime of being "obsessed with the works of Leroy Neiman . . . sexually." Wolverine is back to a poignant laconic ...
