Review:Unfortunately, I was gravely disappointed by this book. I have read just about all of Leon Uris' fiction and looked forward to another fascinating piece of good historical fiction. Instead what A God In Ruins delivers is one-dimensional stereotypical characters, predictable events, and easy solutions. I didn't believe the plot or any of the characters. Worse, it was boring!

Review:I loved this book!! The characters were so good that you couldn't help but holding your breath at some of the most dangerous times hoping that yours would not die. Great read and an interesting look back on how our soldiers were trained during ww2. Read more

Review:The continuation of the two part series. For some reason - perhaps because they were closer in time I remembered the actual events - this last half seemed to move slower than the "The Hope." Herman Wouk certainly dug deeply into every aspect of history as he provided in depth coverage of the more protracted war in the Sinai and the fascinating undulating bridge over the Suez canal. At times the political infighting grew boring, but it makes up a good part of the story of this period in Israel... Read more

Review:If you are interested in reading about the uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto of Poland during World War ll...this will sweep you away...characters, touching, emotional...how did the world allow this to happen. Read more

Review:I Voluntarily Reviewed and advanced copy of this book.
I loved the story between Raven and Konstantin there story was riveting it captured me from the first page I loved how they first meet to how they were able to save each other both of them had a lot to over come she had to learn to trust a friend she had long gave up on. He had to overcome a tragedy from his past to know he could love again. I love George LeClair her books keep amazing me. Read more

Review:There's lots of novels about Cold War intrigues, but precious few of them include Cuba. Although clearly a work of fiction, it is well-researched (like all of Uris' books). This book changed some of my thinking about a difficult era in our history. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Read more

Review:This is a wonderful story about a family that had unconditional love, most of the time, for each other. The title fits this story perfectly! Enjoyed how the author developed the characters making me feel as if I knew them, I felt their pain & their joy! This story did bring me to tears toward the end. A little too wordy & descriptive in places, also the proof reader missed a lot.. Very upset with Olivia telling Sarah’s secret and never apologizing! Still highly recommend reading ??.... Read more

Review:Beautiful made book! Has every last nursery rhythm and stories you could think of even ones I have forgotten. Even though my daughter is only six months old I love flipping through the pages to read her a story. Must have on your little ones shelf! Read more

Review:This an adorable story that's perfect for bedtime. It's a board book and it rhymes (two of my fave things in a baby book), plus the illustrations are wonderful. Very soothing for baby. I would purchase it again. Read more

Review:I Enjoyed the book, the reading flowed. Most of the concepts and sub-stories were very interesting and thought provoking.
However, the aliens were much too naive, and quite unbelievable as characters... Same things happening over and over and never learning - but maybe it strikes me because I AM human...

I would recommend it to my Sci-Fi/Skeptic friends who would probably enjoy it as well.

All in all a very pessimistic and optimistic story at the same time. Read more
