How My Best Friend Became America's Dog - Let Me Tell You about Jasper . . .

Review:I so enjoyed reading about Henry and Jasper. Dogs are truly a best friend??. I don't feel so bad about spoiling my Shih Tzu, Jake. God bless you, Jasper and Peter. Oh, and I record "The Five" so I don't miss y'all. Read more

A Humorous Thriller Set In 2040s London - We Have Lost The President

Review:Quite amusing, an interesting concept. Just enough interest to capture my attention, although the future described was a mere gentle possibility. A gentle book, good for bedtime reading, sleep assisting. Read more

I Am Charlotte Simmons: A Novel
I Am Charlotte Simmons: A Novel

Review:Way too long for the storyline, and way too wordy. It was almost as if Tom Wolfe was hoping for us to see how knowledgeable he was about certain subjects; hence, he chose the collegiate atmosphere in order to show this! Definitely not my favorite Tom Wolfe novel. Read more

A Man in Full
A Man in Full

Review:Great character development. Held my interest from the very beginning to the end. Actually picked up a hard copy at a friend's just to look at, but then liked the first ten pages I bought it for myself on my Kindle. Read more

2666 (En español) (Spanish Edition)

Review:Libros acerca de otros libros suelen perderse en sus proprios signos. Pero lo que Bolaño hace és diferente, un exercicio intelectual y todavia cardiovascular. Una obra maestra contemporanea. Que los Detectives y el Nocturno e todo mas estea en español para Kindle también. Read more

In Search of Lost Time Volume IV Sodom and Gomorrah (Modern Library Classics)

Review:I finished the original C. K. Scott Moncrieff translation, bought book 7 of this series and decided to reread all the books of this newer fixed translation. The writing is far more natural and enjoyable... Read more

An Illustrated Bathroom Companion for Grown-Ups (Dirty Everyday Slang)

Review:GREAT VALUE ... funny, factual and just a good, quick read that makes you keep reading and not put it down. The illustrations and wording are well thought out, clever and attention grabbing. I learned so much about things I either took for granted or were wrongly informed. This book would be a great gift. Either as a gag or as a legitimate present for just about anyone. The world would be a better place if people read books of this style (not necessarily the subject matter) periodically. The... Read more

Seize the Day (Penguin Classics)
Seize the Day (Penguin Classics)

Review:I have struggled with procrastination and self-defeating behaviors. Joyce's words have given me the strength, courage, confidence, restoration of my identity as a daughter of Christ...to go out and take hold of the amazing Life God has planned for me...and seize this day. This book is sure to be a blessing to all who purchase this. Read more

The Mincing Mockingbird: Guide to Troubled Birds
The Mincing Mockingbird: Guide to Troubled Birds

Review:Cute presentation, but language is foul (not fowl). Of course, I'm an old prude. This is NOT a book that can be read in front of grandma, the preacher, the kids... Not worth the money for the author to show off his potty-mouth. I don't often trash a book, but this one's leaving my library before it gets in. Also not going to be part of anyone else's library.

Candide
Candide

Review:I wish I could convince everyone who avoids older literature to read Candide. This book is hilarious, dark, bitter, snide, and beautiful. If you love Vonnegut novels, you will likely enjoy Candide. The satire from yesteryear is just as applicable to the personal and political interactions of mankind today. Read more
