Review:This book needed a good editor. Poor knight falls off his horse after his horse is spooked and the saddle broke and slid. Three pages later he's climbing back on the horse with saddle working fine apparently. But he's broken his right arm - wait, several pages later it's his left arm - wait, it's his right arm - no, it's his left arm - hmm, back to right arm. I'm only a third of the way through the book. This has been very distracting. Even comical. Hope both arms turn out okay... Read more
Review:I thought this book was very good. For someone interested in church and what a church is about it was tops. I thought that there were many things written about that would help a persons understanding about God. also it helped me to understand church leaders better. If you are not interested in going to church all the time and expanding your knowledge of God you may not get out of what the author is trying to tell you as much as I did. Read more
Review:The Fairy Tale Romance Collection by Melanie Dickerson is a fabulous collection of stories based on popular fairy tales. All five stories are beautifully written and very engaging. They don’t obviously resemble the stories on which they are based, but it’s been a while since I’ve read a book that made me think. I highly recommend this collection for any age group!
****Story #1, The Healer’s Apprentice, is a very different take on the tale of Sleeping Beauty. In fact, it took more than... Read more
Review:Oh my. Everyone must own this book. I only just started to read it and everything Mr. Hays is saying is truth. It is so scary what is about to happen. All I can say is to get prepared. I am 54-years old and have been around long enough to see the world change and it hasn't changed for the better. It has become worse. One of the major changes I have seen is the greed among people and that is what our government wants because that is what the New World Order is all about. Greed starting at the top... Read more
Review:There are two things Elijah Goldsmith does not lack. The first is money. The second is ambition. It is not enough, in one year, to graduate high school and begin college at Princeton. He mixes in one more thing: Becoming a spy.
Only he doesn’t know, when he goes to Washington in the cold beginning of the year, what it really means to be a spy – what they do, what they want from him. He doesn’t know who the beautiful, talented girl training beside him really is. And he certainly doesn’t kn... Read more
Review:Geraldine Brooks should be applauded for writing such an easy-to-read guide to the Koran ~ I loved how each chapter was dedicated to an aspect of Islamic culture which opened my eyes to understand the plight of Islamic women. Read more
Review:While teaching high school English Literature, I thought we needed to read the book instead of an excerpt...
It is amazing how my students reacted... instead of rage they have displayed a loving gesture: they have been taking a minute of silence in the beggining of each of my classes... to remember those who did and did not survive Auschwitz. Read more
Review:I absolutely loved this book! Timothy Keller is easy to follow and understand. In this book he gives deeper insight into the life of Jesus in a way that I connected with. I would recommend this book to anyone it is still changing my life. Read more
Review:This book hits all the highlights and important players in church history as well as many lesser known facts, which are interesting. History is told as an unfolding story that retained my interest on every page. Read more
Review:Never thought that I could finish reading the whole book, but I did and re-read it whenever I want to revisit his ministry journeys. What a great pastor for our presidents and for the people of the whole world. Read more
