Review:"Around the Way Girl" was my book club choice for the month of March. This was my first memoir and I was excited to read it. I love learning about and supporting people who know what they want and actually do what they need to do in order to achieve their goals. I am a firm believer that anyone can achieve their dreams if they believe in themselves and do the work. Some will have to do more work than others to achieve the same dreams and goals, that is just how life works but as long as you don'... Read more

Review:Richard Dawkins is one of my personal heros. His understanding of science is outstanding, his ability to explain it is remarkable, and his ability, to make sense of complex and subtle topics puts him at the top of the list of science writers. He also can tell a good story in a down to earth way. It was fascinating to hear how he came to this point in "An Appetite for Wonder". 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:The author certainly has a command of the less frequently-used words in the English language, and, for the first 30% of the book, I enjoyed the tales. However, the overly-flowery prose, the lack of a plot, and the ongoing inner conflict with the author and his roots are interminable. Read more

Review:Not my usual reading but I really enjoyed the book. Fascinating true story, well written by Melinda Blanchard. Eye-opening with regards to cultural differences and bureaucratic red tape. Fast, easy read. Definitely recommend. Read more

Review:I read this book as a part of a committee and wasn't crazy about it. I'm far from a prude but the obscene language was a bit much and overdone. She could have told the same story without excessive use of some of the chosen words. Overall topic of women's body image and the impact life experiences have had on her was good. She seems to have made an impact on other comedians and social media being used as a venue for bullying and speaking negatively about women. Read more

Review:Approached the book with an open mind, and can say its only good for dark humor. Self perpetuating, its another romanticized story of a struggle that only exists in a simple mind with ego distortion . One star for the ghost writter who pinned it. Read more

Review:I just started reading this book, and I look forward to it. Justice Ginsburg writes the Forward. She and Scalia were greats friends, for which the great man gift of making. I'd advise anyone who cares about the law, and the virtues that we Americans believe in, to read this book. Read more

Review:A great book written in true colours and honesty. A chef who has many years over the stoves will fully understand this book and if you strive every day for nothing but perfection, insisting on perfection on every aspect of kitchen operations, you too, will succeed.... Marco is exceptional and one of the best chefs of our era. Read more
