A great Novel
This novel was quiet confusing at first, but as you read more, you start to understand how the author made the novel seem like a diary even though it wasn't from one person's point of view. This ballad for Afghanistan is very good even though it is a work of fiction; it has many true recent history of Afghanistan. I really enjoyed this novel for that particular reason. The history that was ...

For me Islamic women have always been hidden behind a veil of mystery. In Jennifer Heath's splendid book she strips away the veil and reveals the true life stories of dozens of queens, warriors, rebels,poets, musicians, storytellers, mystics, and saints. Heath takes us inside the lives of these remarkable women to show us both their power and their humanity. Her deft prose is a joy to read. ...

Instead of penning another tired re-retelling of the Christian version of the 15 tales included among the pages, she dared to employ the combination of ten plus years of research with imagination and remembrance. On The Edge Of Dream spotlights the women of the Celts as equals among their male counterparts, ...

The Magical All-Inclusiveness of Gardening
This well-written book is an engaging blend of garden-related reminiscences, recollections, and ruminations. As the child of a diplomat, the author has memories of gardens in far-flung places around the world. She also relates touching memories of beloved family members -- whether young or old, alive or departed -- who loved to garden, too. Her most detailed accounts are of her present urban ...

Interesting Rhetorical Utterance with Great Images
This book is a catalog of sorts for an exhibition that the author was trying to promote. It is full of all sorts of black velvet painting images with many of the most common images (Elvis, etc.) featured. The color images are of good quality and the selection well represents the genre. It is a great reference just to have a visual example of the form at your fingertips. There is one short esay ...

The plot you are about to fall into may seem at times absurd and ...
Money is Love: Reconnecting to the Sacred Origins of Money

Slim Book Heavy on Helpful Material
I was attracted to this book because it tied together the words "Sacred" "Money" and "Love". So much of what I observe in the world is so contrary to these words (especially together!) that I was intrigued and simply had to see what Wilder had to say. I was not disappointed. The book is not very long, so I wasn't sure at first, especially when the first 41 pages were basically all introduction, ...
