Review:I fell in love with this author when I watched him tel his story on a Facebook video. I was so in love that I bought his book without any hesitation. Now, I am heart broken because I’ve already finished reading the book that sounds almost like my life story. If I had to write my thoughts, it would probably be this. The shortest $12 book I’ve ever bought, but every word is priceless.

Review:I was taken by surprise by this book ! There were several poems that I related to which I found to be a bit of a shock for whatever reason. I guess I didn't think that there were others who have gone through what I have or have felt what I felt. Overall it was an excellent book filled with beautiful poetry! Read more
Review:This book carries a variety of different forms of poems and even a short story. Her personal notes are included and if your a musical fan of hers you will begin to see the connections of her lyircs with her poems. This book is an insight to her most personal thoughts, and this form of vulnerability she shows us let's us know she is human. 2Fish also reminds you that your not the only one suffering, if your sufferring. Best poem book I have read yet. S o understandable and relatable. Read more
Review:Bought for class. Item as described.
5 stars isn't about the content, but about the book arriving when it was supposed to and being the one pictured/undamaged.
I didn't end up reading it. Oops. Read more
Review:This is the worst book I have ever read. It has no point and goes nowhere. Some people would say dung thrown against a white canvas is modern art. If you are one of these such people you may love this book. I, on the other hand, see it at face value. The Emperor has no clothes. An absolute waste of 2 hours in vain frivolity. Read more
Review:This book does not have any easy answers. It is not the purpose of the book. The purpose of the book is to make the reader think for themselves. I find the book a comforting read - it gives hope and meaning to everyone that is dissatisfied with the answers given by organized religion, political parties, or just the usual howling mobs of sheep that think that just because they are members of a group they are wolves.
Nietzsche probably understood suffering and loss better than most, but he ... Read more
Review:I have had this book for several years now, enough time for its pages to accumulate all sorts of notes and post-its - in other words, it's an incredibly useful book that I consider indispensable (and unparalleled in its exhaustiveness). As it is encyclopedia-like in nature, it is useful for all the books, but especially for the Silmarillion, with its myriad characters, locations, and creatures. Incredibly thorough, it's worth every penny of its extremely reasonable price. Read more

Review:He may be a fine writer , but the way he described going Into open heart surgery did not ring true. I lived thru a life or death surgery, and believe me, there was no dreaming under anesthesia. Further, the Ellegy about our lost common ancestors was heartfelt, but seemed meaningless in light of the "self" that takes over in a situation like this. He makes his survival a homage to our dead relatives, instead of to his doctors. Please dr. Wiesel, give science it's due. Read more
Review:Grendel is a really interesting book, which will captivate your heart for the antagonist. The author, John Gardener portrayed Grendel as an innocent creature who is force to become evil due to humans and a dragon who steers him wrong. This book is mainly about how Grendel reaches the state in which he becomes total destructive. In the first part of the book Grendel wanted to become friends with humans, but humans feared him due to his physical apperance in which we all notice at first and judge... Read more
