One Day It'll All Make Sense
One Day It'll All Make Sense

Review:Common has always been one of those people that you want to keep a watch on. His music, though in the beginning, was a bit controversial has been inspiring and had a message that reached all people.

In "One Day It'll All Make Sense", Common offers up himself and his mother provides a great backdrop to his story.

But no real insight granted the fact that Jay-Z did not participate is a factor but fawor all the people the people the writer interviewed I just expected more. I would not suggest reading this unless your looking for a substitute for sleeping pills Read more

An Annotated Guide to Eating Well - F*ck - That's Delicious

Review:Action Bronson delivers with a book that's part recipies and part food culture, all through his eyes. It's brilliant to look at food the way Action does, from a perspective of natural curiosity, experience and respect. Action gets you excited about food and about cooking which should be the point of any good cook book but somehow most fall short, this book NOT being one of those. Read more
