Importance of Being Earnest, the (One-Act)
Importance of Being Earnest, the (One-Act)

Review:This version of play was good and the actors captured the tone of the play well. The actors playing Lady Bracknell, Gwendolen Fairfax and Cecily Cardew were very good. The male characters were portrayed at an acceptable level but not was good as the female characters. I would recommend this version. Read more

The Importance of Being Earnest (Broadview Editions)

Review:Oscar Wilde must have been quite the character in his day. This play about mistaken identity is not only laugh out loud funny but cutting at the same time. He skewers the upper class with his observations about their behaviour. No wonder it has been done in countless theaters over the years and been made into at least one film that I can think of.

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:I had read this series back in the 90"s and I had to read this again when it was such a good price. Now I want to order the whole series again. But being a poor person I will not be able to order them.
If you have not read this before the story only gets better, VC Andrew told her story well. Read more

Everything Changes: A Novel

Review:I couldn't put this book down. Tropper writes with unbridled conviction which leaves you no choice but to become emotionally involved with each character. Tragic and refreshing - a combination rarely successful. Read more

Review:I have to admit, I found this book a slow go when I had to read it as a Freshman in prep-school. But the fact that it was set in New England and that it dealt with a depressing winter landscape and a remorseless cast of characters, such as I was then encountering made it unbelievably relevant at the time. I can relate, however, to the preponderance of young readers at this site who have expressed their displeasure at having to read it. I would not wish this vision on a young audience unles...

Review:I just love Karen Kingsbury's books. There are always something we can learn from each of her books. The Baxter family has become my 'family' and I have learned so many (spiritual) lessons. I can highly recommend her books!! Read more

Review:This book is a great illustration of how God pursues us. We can choose to run into His arms or to follow the deceiver. Once we have accepted His love, we are expected to show others the way into His arms. Read more

Crosstalk: A Novel

Review:I was looking forward to this book but after reading about forty pages I gave up and sent it to the cloud. It seems to want to be a sarcastic "The Circle" or some other duplication, The dialog is incredibly silly and unbelievable and the babble went on and on and on . I could not listen any more. The somewhat futuristic idea of brain melding is not new or even interesting any more. i gave up on this book and picked up another : "A Gentleman in Moscow". What a difference beautiful writing a...
