Review:I always love reading C. S. Lewis, but his books are never easily read in a short amount of time. This little book allows you to latch onto a simple thought for one day - and ponder it. Great daily reading. Read more
Review:*The Abolition of Man*, by C. S. Lewis, is a book that shows once again how, over a half century after his death, the Oxford don's words can still move folks, inspire contemplation, and apply to contemporary issues. *Abolition* begins via critiquing an English educational text that was sent to him for a review. However, he doesn't tell us what book it is, which seems to be his effort to be gracious. As he is using their text in his argument in a manner that rips them to shreds, this is actually ...

Review:This Classic work on success is timeless. Though one can tell that it is from the 1950's the message is still and will remain accurate and rewarding. Take the 30 day test and your life will change for the better. Read more
Review:This is a new author for me. He introduces a lot of characters and I really don't want to commit to 5 stars until I have all of them straight in my mind. Once I understand those interactions, then the stories should be better. Read more
Review:The Grimiore of the Lamb is a thoroughly enjoyable short story of the Iron Druid. It grants the reader a glimpse into wonderful, sometimes scary, always entertaining world created by Kevin Hearne. Wish it wasn't so short. Read more
Review:I only gave this book two stars because I could not get through it. It is a lame book compared to The Demonologist. I like the Warrens, but not this book. If you are looking for stories about ghosts that live near the graveyard then you will like this book. Read more
Review:This is a condensed Campbell reader with insight for everyone in a philosophical mood. I think he's a go to guy for connecting dots between cultures and with some insights on life, stay on the rails and seek one's bliss. Read more
Review:Disappointing because the conversation bunches from place to place and it never seems a line of thought is finished. I am not really seeing what is suppose to be so great about this Campbell guy. Seems like somewhere along the line someone said he was great and the lemmings follow. Perhaps I will give him a third strike but this book and a DVD did nothing for me. Read more
Review:Very thought provoking. Enjoyed the homogenization of several areas of science and history and mythology into a cohesive story. Great follow up upon Fingerprints and other books in his series devoted to this topic. Read more
Review:In this age of disconnection how do we find belonging ? Dr. Brenè Brown presents practical tools for finding a way to belong to yourself first, then to each other.
The premise of the book is the wilderness is the place we step out from the crowd and stand alone in our integrity . Hard to do its a thankless place sometimes but if we rare willing to risk not fitting in, we will find out how to belong to our own hearts.
One quote that resonated with me:
the more we diminish our own ... Read more
