An in-depth look at the vollyball legend
When most people tune in to watch the AVP, they often notice one thing - some guy out there is wearing a pink hat. The man underneath that hat is, undoubtedly, the greatest volleball player to ever step on the court (or the sand). This is the life story of Karch Kiraly and his accomplishments in life as well as on the court. Always a gentlemenly competitor, we get to see the few flare-ups ...
Powerful Prayers

Simply Powerful
Mr. King delved into the foundation of Spirituality and Religion and made simple an otherwise complex and controversial issue. The book focuses on the individual and his or her communication with God, while setting aside religious beliefs. I would like to recommend to friends who are too formal about prayers and to those who maybe agnostic such as Larry King in his book.

Kudos from Creating Characters author Marisa D'Vari
This fascinating "biography" is really a savvy "how to" book that belongs on the shelf of every screenwriter, aspiring producer, director, and development executive -- and everyone else who loves films and craves to know the secrets of Hollywood's most colorful mogul. I found it fun to read as a realistic "behind the scenes" glimpse of what it takes to be a profitable mogul, such as the way ...

Women Who Run the Show
"When I started reading this book, I was amazed how controversial it was. I had no idea what women went through on the job in the 1970s through the 1990s, the period this book covers! I sent a copy to my mom in Chicago. She is 84 and has been in business all her life. She just called and told me that she has two of her friends over every afternoon, they pass the book around and read sections of ...

Wonderful, detailed book full of little known facts!
This is a great read for any Dukes of Hazzard fan. The author gives a detailed history describing Waldron's inspirations for the show, facts on the personal and acting history of each cast member, as well as an episode by episode discussion of all eight seasons! Even guest stars are discussed. I found out many interesting unknown facts about the guest stars which made the show even more fun ...

Hollywood 101: The Film Industry

Frederick Levy
Renaissance Books, 2000
Perfect Introductory Book to Hollywood
I purchased a number of "get into film/hollywood" books and this one was by far the most helpful. While it doesn't have much of the typical career advice (how to write your resume, cover letters etc.), which are better covered in more general job hunting books, it is the perfect book to read to get a sense for the jobs that do exist in Hollywood. If you're interested in the industry, but find ...

Fans of the TV show Party of Five, the movie I Know What You Did Last Summer and others will find this a fine biographical sketch of the actress: the first book to explore her life. From her professional acting appearances to her breakup with her husband and her love affairs with notables, this is revealing and absorbing.

I watched Scream a couple of times, before. After reading this book, I wanted to go out and rent Scream again. In fact, I will be purchasing the DVD. It got me really excited in every scene, and every word spoken in the movie.

Renaissance Books, 2002
The Path without Beginning or End.
CAVEAT: Rajneesh was a rather polarizing guru. People seem to have either loved him or hated him. Personally, I am not the personality cult type. I don't mean that in a pejorative sense. It is just that I feel the Wizard, the Guru, the Priest, etc., can't give me anything I don't already have. A guru can tell me how to wake up, but only I can open my eyes. All I know for certain where Osho is ...

Thank You, Mr. Dunton!
Excellent, excellent, excellent! This is by far the best book available on this subject. A friend of my wife quietly slipped me a copy a few weeks back and I couldn't be more grateful. I've since bought several copies to hand out to all my "expecting" pals. I (and my wife) look forward to more from Mr. Dunton in the future.

Lauren Johnson
Renaissance Books, 2000
Wow!, Brady experts beware.
When I got this book I figured I knew every trivia question there was for the Brady's. I was wrong. Where did she come up with this stuff? There is so much detail in this book and it's organized in a way that makes it something you can browse or pass around for trivia questions. I was also impressed with how everything tied back to the episode with all the details from each show. A cool book ...
A Journey Into Submission

Claire Thompson
Renaissance E Books, 2001
A Note from the Author
I noticed a reviewer here didn't like the story entitled Phoebe's Tale. They didn't like the fact that what happened to her wasn't especially of her own choice, and degenerated into something that edged on abuse. Perhaps this wasn't the place to put the story, but what I wanted to explore was precisely what that reader observed - true romantic submission has nothing to do with forced affections ...
