Fareed Zakaria

W. W. Norton, 2008

Wrong Title
Mr. Zakaria's new book is an excellent and balanced view of the world at the time he wrote it. It is NOT a book on America's decline. It seems to me the title is more a marketing gimmick than anything else. Actually, the last two chapters of the book are more of a celebration of the nation's strength's than anything else. The author chronicles the rise of other nations relative to the U.S. ...

Half & half
I LOVE David Sedaris & was really looking forward to this next release. I was disappointed to find that about half of the stories were on other Audiobooks I have bought. I feel a bit ripped off. Couldn't he have waited until he had all new material to publish? Of course the material is all very funny & he's the guy I'd like sitting next to me next time I fly. Listen to the book & you'll get ...

The next Great Game
I havent been so enthusiastic about D&D since I was in middle school and I first started playing. This is The Best Dungeons and Dragons Ever. There are lots of reasons but this game is super super fun. I wont list them here, but if you give this game half a chance it will blow you away. If your an old player and are able to set the old stuff aside you will see that this edition is ...

When I finished reading The Shack, I wanted to jump up and yell "YES, THAT'S IT!" I was compelled to share this book with friends, neighbors and strangers. It's the story of forgiveness, understanding and joy! Do yourself a favor and read it!

Janet Evanovich

St. Martin's Press, 2008

All of the series are great...
I've become a regular fan of "Stephanie Plum" series. Evanovich is a fabulous writer. I've read this one and the previous 13 books in this series. I'm looking forward to the 15th I think is coming in June or July. Lots of humor about the character's family...her grandma is the best. Some love thrown in, adventure, and all sorts of great things. I highly recommend her books, especially this ...

I'm extremely pleased with Amazon.com
Amazon.com has been a valuable source of attaining everything I need in the way of movies, books, DVD and CD's. Thank you for making life much more accessible to me and with the price of gasoline, your service is even more important.

The Host: A Novel

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

So many plot twists I got dizzy!
Wow. And I thought I was imaginative. "The Host" has to be the strangest book I've read in quite some time, but also the best. Meyer weaves her tale in the midst of a terrifying backdrop, where the human race has been taken over by an alien species, "Souls," which, once implanted in to the cervical spine of their "host," take control of that person's brain, memory, and body. The invasion took ...

Ron Paul

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

A book from the man who should be the next President.
After the "Super Tuesday" results came in and I was disappointed with how Ron Paul did in those primaries, I reverted to my characteristic cynicism and bitterness with the political process and decided that I no longer had a desire to support ANY politician, regardless of political philosophy and legislative history. I removed Ron Paul from my page, left the "Veterans for Ron Paul" facebook ...

Barbara Walters

Knopf, 2008

Thoroughly enjoyed this book...cover to cover.
I thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Walter's book...cover to cover. I admired her gumption to just keep going, conquering hurdles to do what she did. And I appreciated her candor. Her willingness to share her insecurities, her setbacks and her wins made for an insightful and interesting read. My only complaint: it could have been longer! Can hardly wait for the sequel! I purchased/read the Kindle-ized ...

Weinstein Books, 2008

Great book!
I thought this was a great book to show you how to live that joyful life you want health wise and spiritually. The author covers alot. However, my favorite book is Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbookbecause of the workbook format where you interact with all the charts and exercises (recipes). I love that there are so many and you can pick and choose what works for you.

The book doesn't cost any more, honest! I just finished this wonderful book and am a much wiser person for the ...
