CURES FOR HEARTBREAK reads more like a series of interconnected short stories than a novel, but the format works. It gives the readers brief, poignant glimpses into the life of its narrator, Mia, during the first year after her mother's sudden death. Told with both humor and painful rawness, the novel should resonate with those who have experienced a loss, and make those who haven't feel almost ...

Brienne Murk

Regal Books, 2007

Protection and Wisdom for Today's Teens
The dangers of MySpace and similar web locations are well known. Such sites are places where people can "pretend" to be someone else - you don't know who you're really talking to. A predator? A criminal? Author Brienne Murk tells us there's another danger, too. Chatting on-line, sending instant messages, meeting over the internet -- teens and others can get unwisely involved at an emotional ...

A True Sox Fan's Book
"Sox and the City" is a great read for any baseball lover, but particularly White Sox fans. They say that as a baseball fan you are wedded to one team for life, and live and die with them each season. Or to paraphrase one of those east coast baseball fans, baseball is not life or death, but the [White] Sox are! "Sox and the City" will most interest Chicagosns, of course. But all baseball fans ...

Horseman'S Bride (Heartbreak Canyon) (Silhouette Intimate Moments, 957)

Marilyn Pappano

Silhouette, 1999

wonderful, character-driven story-telling
This is a romance from the days of old. Not to be mistaken with old-fashioned, it can definitely hold its own against anything released in the genre today. What I mean by old-fashioned is that there are no hooks, she isn't a virgin, no-one's secretly pregnant, and our hero is neither a billionaire nor devastatingly handsome... and they're not even pretend married! But the couple is good ...

Cheaper to learn from others mistakes
Yesterday was a long day. Up at 4:30AM for a flight down to LA. A day of meetings then back on a plane to get home by 10:30PM. Too wired to sleep and nothing on TV but people talking about Michael Vick. Time to grab a book. I figured that I would read a couple of chapters then off to bed. A couple of hours later and the book was finished. It is not a surprise that it only took a couple of ...

Hunting Mister Heartbreak: A Discovery of America

7 reviews
Jonathan Raban

Random House Value Publishing, 1993

A masterpiece
Raban's four books written to date on America-Old Glory, Hunting Mr Heartbreak, Badlands and Passage to Juneau-are all elegant and entertaining meditations on America and what it is to be American. Although each book is very different, they all feature the same blend of candid autobiography, careful historical exegesis, vivid description, and wry humour. Each one is a rewarding work, but Hunting ...

Coming Together, Coming Apart: A Memoir of Heartbreak and Promise in Israel

Daniel Gordis

Wiley, 2006

Beautifully Written and Provocative
Coming Together is a vast improvement over Home to Stay. The writing is absolutely beautiful, the ideas provocative. The heart of the book is Gordis's account of his family's adjustment to life in Israel, beginning at the tail end of the Second Intifada, when the Gordis family is kept awake in its Jerusalem home by gunfire at night, and terrified by suicide murders that take place in their ...

Fantagraphics Books, 2003

A Visit to Palomar
I've loved the Palomar stories ever since a friend handed me "Heartbreak Soup" (an earlier compilation of a few of the stories). The characters are wonderfully real, the art is expressive, and the strange, strange stories are always entertaining. What a treat to have all of the Palomar stories in one (huge) volume! I totally agree with the reviewer who said that now Jaime Hernandez should follow ...

Berkley Trade, 2003

A must have for all you "abandonholics" out there!
I just wanted to comment on another reviewer's words before I give my review. The book does zero in on getting past abandonment to establish a healthy romantic relationship, but the things that made you an abandoment victim may or may NOT have had anything to do with with prior romantic situations. See more in my review that follows: I got involved with a woman who has abandonment issues that ...

Great Memories of an Exciting Era
I love this book (as well as "The Kardiac Kids", also by this author). As someone born and raised in Cleveland, I've followed the Browns since the early seventies. The Schottenheimer era, along with the first year of Bud Carson's reign, contained some of the most exciting (and heartbreaking) Browns games I can remember. I still have a lot of VHS tapes of those games, which I occasionally get out ...

Michaels book is a champ
Stephen Ciacciarelli really nailed it in this biography of the Heartbreak Kid. As a writer, I'd rate him among the very best in this genre, and would recommend this book to anyone interested in knowing more about Shawn Michaels than the PR hype his employers put out.

This book was truly inspiring. It was wonderful to see how you can relate shoes and "soles" to the emotional experiences of individuals. It was a true test of the human spirit. This is book is a must have.

The thesis of this book is stated way back on page 239: "My patients have taught me so much about the preciousness of life.

Free at Last
Even though my husband and I are separated and there were a lot of tears and heartache that led to the separation, thanks to the Keys in this book, I am not angry about the past anymore. It's miraculous, to not be angry, to be able to be in the moment because this book actually helped me to see why I loved him in the first place, our dreams together and how he made me think bigger than I ever ...

Time for a holiday?.....
An excellent rollercoaster ride of a book, with more ups and downs than snakes and ladders! The book chronicles a young man's adventures as he travels the world looking for love and excitement, and by the time you reach the heart-breaking climax, you will either want to start again from the begining, or book the first flight to south america!
