Review:I'm only like chapter 9 but I already wish there were more chapters. I love this book. It's really helping me to become a better person, more positive person. It's hard but I'm trying, thanks to LILLY (with 3 L's lol) but thank you for this book. I just hope I'm able to meet you one day so I can say thank you in person. ?? Read more

Review:It is surprising that a book about which you already know the outcome can still be so intriguing, but Warnings Unheeded is extremely so. The book was well written, highly detailed and extremely thoroughly researched. He brings to life stories that I had read about in the past, but never felt from the victim's point of view. I cannot imagine just how the author was able to organize all the different angles from so many that were affected, but he succeeded in doing so. I hope that the lessons wit... Read more

Review:The book, "Barking to the Choir" is a spectacularly moving book. I wrote notes on many of the pages as I read the book. In fact, I was so mesmerized, I purchased five more copies to give to others. The messages of the book deeply reached me personally and for the work that I do. Read more

Review:Don't judge this book by its title. This isn't a book attempting to prove or disprove anything like the title seems to say, and it also doesn't offer practical life advice like the subtitle would lead you to believe. I think Schaeffer's goal with the title was to highlight the paradoxical nature of life at large and many of his own beliefs, which I don't think the title successfully communicates (but maybe that's just me).

This is less a book about atheism or theism and more about the mes... 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:This book is very interesting facts about Anne Boleyn, but is very dry and reads like a historical thesis. I am slowly reading through it as I am supposedly a distant relative of hers on the Howard side. Susan seem to be really wanting to get out the facts about Anne rather than hearsay which has previously been written and I praise her for that, but it is a slow read. 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:All the Pretty Things is one of those stories that you can't put down and you don't want to end. Edie's writing is engaging, funny and insightful on both her blog and in this book. I highly recommend and plan to share this book with others. 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
