Unique and Outstanding
This is not a formula romance. It is deeper, better written, and more realistic than most so-called romance books. I absolutely loved this book and recommend it highly. It is written in the first person, and with such charm and honesty, I immediately cared deeply for the characters. I hope this auther writes more novels. She is an extremely gifted story-teller!

Very nice collection
I purchased all three boxed sets of Pixie Hollow books for my 6 and 4 year old. They are packaged nicely and the books themselves are perfect for reading before bed, a few chapters each night. Their small paperback size is good for easy reading for them as well. The stories are gentle and sweet with a few pictures interspersed throughout the book but not so many that it seems like a glorified ...

Wonderful find of a book!
This book was among 8-10 children's books I found at a thrift store, never having heard of it "but it looked kind of good, was in great condition and the pictures were interesting (Slobodkin illustrations)". For .69 I didn't even take the time to glance at what it was about. And WOW!, was I surprised!! I took a longer look at it prior to reading it to my 4-year old daughter, realized how ...

A Protective Mask...And Depression
Brian Copeland's "Not a Genuine Black Man" is a provocative and moving autobiography that begins the Copeland family's 1972 move into "lily white" San Leandro, California. Brian was then eight years old. And San Leandro (99.9% white) was using any method it could to maintain an all-white status. Copeland, a San Francisco Bay Area TV/Radio celebrity, comedian, and author, is an excellent story ...

Most memorable book
I cannot understand why this book is not mentioned more often as one of the great books of the Twentieth Century.It is a stunning read full of images and ideas that remain in the mind long after the last page is read.It is haunting and also most illuminating.Morante succeeds magnificently in detailing the effects of war and (perhaps more importantly)the aftermath of war on the ordinary people of ...

Chi Gung, taught as it should be
I find this book to be superb. I am particularly attacted to its flexibility, which fits in with the fact that the form of Chi Gung which Ms. Carnie practices is "The Flowing". Lily Carnie is a skilled teacher unlike many who know *how* to do something but don't know how to pass on that ability. The Olympic coach Laurence E.Morehouse found that an extremely ineffective way to teach someone how ...

This one was my favorite!
I had read all of the previous three books and enjoyed them too but not as much as this one!A lot of people probably could relate to this story because Lily's situation happens to a lot of girls her age everyday.I recommend tis book to anyone who likes to sit down to a good book(but you'll love it so much you won't want to put it down)!

Outstanding Guide to Federal Employment!!
This book was everything I could have asked for and more. The author knows her subject forward and backward, explains what to do and why and gives insight into the process from personal experience. I have followed her advice and gotten good responses to my applications. Without this guidance, I was lost when it came to writing the KSA's (Knowledge, Skills and Abilities) for the application, ...

Get this book
Lily is able to compact the information that has been floating around regarding getting employed with the federal government. Her insight ties all of this information together into an easily digestible book. Her writing style is one that is very informative but not boring. I purchased this book out of curiosity and was able to share just a few of the gems in it with a friend who was ...

The Official Story of Gethsemani
About a month ago, I visited The Abbey of Gethsemani for what I officially said was a retreat, but like so many people who have visited the abbey, I loved THE SEVEN STOREY MOUNTAIN and wanted to see where Thomas Merton lived and wrote. The tourist in me wanted to see Merton's hermitage, which I did not see. It was in use at the time-the nerve of those monks for actually using it for the intended ...

A beautiful guide to face our ultimate fear.
As a psychotherapist, and recepient of plenty of psychotherapy myself, I can testify to the power of fear. Track any emotional difficulty to its core and your will find fear. Track any fear to its core and you will find the fear of death. Fear cries out for reassurance, but not just any reassurance will do --- we need credible reassurance. To my knowledge, no one has solved the great mystery of ...

Complex and Stunning
Ten Times Have the Lilies Blown Mary Erickson Have you ever read a suspense novel that starts with the ending? It both heightens and frustrates the intensity of the entire reading experience. Such it was for me with Ten Times Have the Liles Blown by Mary Erickson. Ms. Erickson has quite a knack for creating intriguing, believable characters and putting them in intricate and dangerous situations. ...

I was carried away
Lily's Sister caught me from the first ten pages and I was carried away until the end. Karen Hasley not only weaves a captivating tale. She also offers great insight into the joys and difficulties of sisterhood as Louise describes her relationship to her sister, Lily. Evidently Hasley has researched pioneer women's literature, because she catches the strength and determination of the voice of the ...

I'll Follow the Moon
I stumbled across this book quite by accident, and I found it to be a treasure. The verse is lovely and calm, as are the illustrations. It also depicts fairly accurately a remarkable natural phenomenon. As a new mom who longed for a child for many years and eventually adopted internationally, I found the symbolism achingly beautiful. I have since given the book to several friends who have ...

Young Women of Faith Bible (NIV) review
I purchased several of these biblesYoung Women of Faith Bible (NIV) as gifts for a group of inner city girls I am ministering to. These are awesome Bibles for young girls/women. They have gone from the "dread" of reading the Bible to looking forward to it. This helps to make the Bible relative to their lives today. It is beautifully packaged and includes notes that relate to them well. A ...

I Can't Believe the Lily Series is out of Print!
Just as good as the Mandie Books, the Lily Series is exciting and mysterious. I'm disappointed that they are no longer in print, but I can't locate the last 2 books ANYWHERE! Buy the first two while you can- trust me- they're worth it no matter what kind of condition they're in.

A Delight!
After reading other fairy books, this one is a delight. There is such originality in the way these Disney fairy books are written. Sure, you still have some typical characters like other fairy books, but many of the characters in these aren't so typical. They have more depth. Like the "mean" fairy Vidia, who really isn't that mean all the time. And Disney fairies aren't that clumsy. They do get ...
