Daniel X is SUPERB!!
I totally enjoyed reading all about Daniel X and his battle with the aliens. I especially liked when he was able to turn himself into a "tick" and get away from The Prayer!

Scary, Supensful, Truly Unique Book
The Road is an excellent book. Through a unique writting style the author allows you to live the simply raw terrifying experience of a father care for his on a post apocalytpic america. It stirs and meddles in our most basic instincts of protection of our young vs. a scenario of complete dispair.

Now I know why I've been having problems!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0307337332/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title I have been a 25-year dog owner and rescuer. Before a career ending injury, the majority of dogs that I rescued where found out in the country where I delivered mail. People would just dump them or move and abandon their dogs. I spent fortunes getting them back in good health, but because of them being abandoned, most of ...

I love that dog!
I bought this book from Starbucks, because I loved Marley & Me and apparently, I'm a sucker for a dog on a book. I bought it without reading the excerpt, and was happy to discover the book is narrated by the main character, Enzo. Enzo describes his life with the family, the funny stuff, the happy times and the extreme difficulties Denny (Enzo's master) faces later on, with such intelligence and ...

Great Purchase.
I couldn't believe myself when I saw this book. Top quality, for such a nominal price. I prefer hardbounds to paperback, and this book for sure is an exception to the fact that hardbound books are grossly costly. I definitely recommend this product!

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time

Mark Haddon

Vintage, 2004

Inventive and Enjoyable
Author Mark Haddon has created a realistic fictional autistic teen with an amazing way of describing the life and people that surround him. But what I love most about the book is how much the main character, 15-year-old Christopher, reminds me of my son Nigel (aside from the fact that Christopher is incredibly good at math, and Nigel is at the opposite end of that spectrum). I love experiencing ...

The Crucible (Penguin Classics)

Penguin Classics, 2003

The Devil is Precise
On my walk through the LoA edition of Arthur Miller plays I bypass The Enemy of the People, the Ibsen adaptation, which I think is a waste of everyone's time, and go straight to the Crucible, which I had never read, nor watched on stage or screen. Very odd. It is a truly gripping piece of modern classic stage writing. Of course AM needed to educate us always, so this story is not just a story ...

Laugh Out Loud Hilarious, Her Best So Far
I can't believe this book hasn't been rated at least 4 1/2 stars overall. This is really one of Evanovitch's best books so far. It continues on with the Plum saga very well while giving us new characters while revisiting the old. Since I recently have garnered an Audible subscription I have gone through Plum series again. They do nothing but get better with every book. I laughed everytime I ...

careless in red
Elizabeth George in my favorite writer, and I purchased "Careless in Red" the day it came out. I was so disappointed in the reviews that it took awhile for me to start it. Big mistake. I thought it was terrific. Perhaps not quite in the league with "Playing for the Ashes" or "Deception of his Mind", but close enough. First, I did not find the characters names hard to remember, or the plot hard to ...

Ted Kerasote

Harvest Books, 2008

Best , Most descriptive book I have ever read.
This is most definitely a 5 Star book & also a 5 Kleenex read. The writer is a real human being & definitely a real dog too. His descriptions made it seem like I was right there every step of the way . What a beautiful story and a beautiful tribute to Man and his Dog. Even , what normally would be very dry commentary on the history of dogs, was most interesting to read. He made the ...

still wonderful
I just finished this book 30 years after reading it for the first time as a young teen. It was wonderful to me then and it was wonderful to me now. I know that kind of Dog Love, and the heartbreak that comes with it. It's just a beautiful story.

John Grogan

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

Oh, those 1 star-reviewing crackpots
John Grogan is a wonderful writer. This book is honest, funny, poignant and touching. His story is peeled to the truth, and about real life. Not everything goes smoothly, and just because it didn't with Marley, there's no reason to assume Grogan and his wife loved their dog any less. It is no surprise, though, that every crackpot who thinks he/she knows better, would come out here, scream like ...

Nora Roberts

Jove, 2008

Loved it.
The first book was a very entertaining read. By the time I finished this one, I was looking (in vain) for the third. If you like Nora you will like this. It's typical of her paranormal flavored books and well worth reading. Now I just have to wait for the third book.

Janet Evanovich

St. Martin's Press, 2008

More grandma Mazur!!!
What initially got me hooked on Stephanie Plum's novels was Grandma Mazur - she is a hoot! I found myself laughing uncontrollably more than once and there are very few books I can say this about. This book is short and funny and a perfect way to while away a summer afternoon. But I have to warn you there is very little of Morelli and the Rangerman...can't have it all!

Nicomachean Ethics

Translations differ
It would be helpful if Amazon didn't pool together reviews from different translations. Note to Amazon: the customer reviews can be very helpful and have motivated me to purchase many books. But reviews for widely translated books should be specific to the translation. Otherwise they become worthless.
