Review:Strangely, after reading her autobiography, I find Maureen a bit unlikable. Hard to get over her dysfunctional relationship with John Ford and her sense of morality stemming from her "strong" Catholic faith. I get this feeling there is a lot more going on in the background than she was ever going to disclose. Read more

Review:Amazing story that gripped me till the very end. Ms. Pat is an inspiration to all women and those who weren’t born with a silver spoon. No matter what, never, ever, ever give up is a great motto for this riveting book! I couldn’t put it down and loved the various characters who influenced Ms. Pat. A true window to poverty on a whole new level. Read more

Review:I love Morrissey...it is written how he speaks . Kind of neat that as you are reading you can hear him speaking. He does drone on a bit here and there and his non meat eating stance gets a bit obnoxious but whatever...it is a well written and interesting book Read more

Review:Read all of Anne Tyler's novels. Enjoyed each and every one. However this story seemed a little off to me. As though she was straining to fit the characters in to a plot they may not have belonged. I still can't get enough of her books and do hope there are more to come Read more

Review:The Queen of Katwe is both a heartbreaking and awe inspiring story. As I read the first chapters, my heart ached for the people in Uganda, especially Phiona who lives in the slums. But even though her life is made up of sheer day-to-day survival, her love of family and faith in God sustains her. Phiona is an amazing young lady who has an incredible aptitude for the game of chess. The more I read of Phiona's story, the more I understood her determination, hope, endurance, and strong love for fami... Read more

Review:Very advanced book for poker players. Bad enough to calculate odds of a winning hand, but to complicate poker with pot size and table position is over my head. Will take multiple readings to understand. Read more
