Education of a Wandering Man
Education of a Wandering Man

Review:I liked this book. Why? Because Louis L'Amour liked to read in the same way that I like to read. Just whatever caught his attention at the moment, or even whatever was available to read wherever he was at any time. No program or agenda. And he had the same motives as I do- he simply wanted to engage in the human experience, to learn more about people: our history, our psychology, what we do and why. He wasn't a very sophisticated guy. He doesn't analyze any one writer for much more than a... Read more

The Illustrated Guide to Creating Imaginative Fiction
The Illustrated Guide to Creating Imaginative Fiction

Review:First of all, the book is gorgeous. The pages are of good quality and the illustrations are amazing. And it is a additional stimulus for understanding the concepts that you're currently reading. The book enriched my feeble knowledge on the creative process of storytelling.
On the back of the book it says something about "Essential for any aspiring or intermediate writer,....". I disagree. I think it's pretty accessible for any person that are curious about the subject. My knowledge is pretty ... Read more

Japanese reading & writing guide - Beginner through advanced course
Japanese reading & writing guide - Beginner through advanced course

Review:First let me say I love the Living Language series. I am huge language enthusiast and I have used many of Living Language's products (Living Language Arabic, Ultimate Arabic, Ultimate French, both versions of Living Languages for Hindi, Spoken World Farsi) and although I love them they are not always good. I go this one for Christmas and I can't put it down! I have finished the first part of Genki last year (which is another awesome textbook for Japanese) but although I finished it I still felt ...

Beginner through advanced course - Korean reading & writing guide
Beginner through advanced course - Korean reading & writing guide

Review:This was my first purchase after I decided to learn Korean. I studied on my own with these books for 3 months and was perpetually confused. Their explanation of the rules of liaison and the difference between 있다 and 이다 were less than helpful. There were never enough details and I had difficulty finding answers to my many many questions. I never progressed past the first book and almost gave up studying. I found online conversation partners and they led me to TTMIK.com where you can get FREE... Read more

The Ultimate Tool for All Musicians - The Chord Wheel
The Ultimate Tool for All Musicians - The Chord Wheel

Review:As a person that has a excellent education but never seems to remember what I want to, this is a great chord wheel. I can concentrate on experience sound and structure instead of trying to remember everything with the turn of a wheel and a good understanding of how to use it. Has directions and is great for what cords to play when you choose a key. Also will help you in the proper ear for writing songs. Simple easy to use with basic knowledge. Read more

Kindle Unlimited: Why You Should NOT Sign Up
Kindle Unlimited: Why You Should NOT Sign Up

Review:This is an excellent source for finding free or better paid services than Kindle Unlimited (KU). The author gives you the name and description of some of the other free e-book apps, and some apps that cost similar to KU but have better selections of best selling books, that really make me feel foolish for spending $120 a year for KU.

Around the World in Eighty Days (Young Reading (Series 2))
Around the World in Eighty Days (Young Reading (Series 2))

Review:A classic from my childhood first experienced through the Disney movie. This was quite a bit different yet all the better for it. I recommend to both the science fiction fan and the lover of history. Written about 1873 it's amazing how much things haven't changed in travel and in people. Read more
