“Awesome Tool” This is a wonderful little book my husband and I are using to help encourage us in our walk with God. As we battle spiritually the enemy, this book helps give us practical verses to cling to from the Bible to help in our feelings so we can claim and SPEAK [...]

“Murders that resemble old murder cases” Aurora “Roe” Teagarden is a librarian. She doesn’t have much of a social life. Once a month on Friday she meets her fellow murder mystery enthusiasts, and they discuss a real murder. This Friday it’s Roe’s turn to present the case of Wallace. She [...]

“Sizzle Starting to Fizzle” Fans of Mary Janice Davidson’s Betsy Taylor should take a deep breath, squint their eyes, and plunge in and through. This is not Ms. Davidson’s best. Oh yes, the witty repartee is there; Betsy and Erik’s relationship is in a sexual frenzy; Laura shows us more of her true [...]

“I can see why so many people love this book…” I have heard people refer to Gordon MacDonald’s “Ordering Your Private World” for years, and I finally got around to reading it. I can see why it has been so influential, as it is extremely well-written. Though this book might be most [...]

“Chasing Fireflies”
Charles Martin has a wonderful gift for storytelling. This is a book that you should be prepared to read on a lazy day with nothing else to do, because you will not want to put it down.

“Amazing Story!” If you are a Lord of the Rings fan, you will definitely enjoy this story of Bilbo Baggin’s adventures and the discovery of the ring. Amazing story for anyone to listen to, and the narrator does an excellent job.

“More Nuanced Than I Expected” From a lot of the hype and reviews, I expected more of a polemic; this was a readable and nuanced view of collective behavior. Both when they get things right and when they go wrong. Three types of problems were addressed – cognitive/informational judgements, coordination problems, and [...]

“Great Book “ I really enjoyed this book. A glimpse into the mind of Michael Phelps. He seems to be just as he has been portrayed. A family focused, driven athlete. Certainly one to be admired. I loved the book and read it on kindle. Inspirational for athletes and [...]

“Indispensable for understanding the origins of the American Civil War” As someone with a keen interest in the American Civil War and its origins, I found Fischer’s Albion’s Seed to be extremely valuable. Although the period it describes is mostly colonial leading up to the American war for independence from England, the four [...]

“A LOVE POEM OF SORTS” a lot of these poems like simple spring flowersstem from the jazz traditonand, yes, as she admits, some are really sillyand you know something? love IS sometimes funny…want to hear something even funnier? I bought this book simply because I fell in love with the author photograph on its [...]

“Good price for the Kindle version” It’s good to have an electronic copy of this book on your Kindle as a reference when you need it. And you can’t beat the price. Well worth it.

“Breaking Free From Emotional Eating” As a serial dieter, I was skeptical of anything claiming to help me “break free” from this millstone around my neck. But as I read the book I began to see what a novel approach Ms. Roth has outlined. It is clear, well-defined and, I think, do-able [...]

“Is The Truth Ever Simple” An excellent, complex, interwoven story with themes and characters causing strong emotional reactions.
John Fiske, an ex-cop turned defense attorney begins to investigate his younger brother Michael’s murder and unravels an injustice that occured 25 years earlier in an Army prison. Michael, a clerk at the U.S. Supreme [...]

“Enthralling” I’ve read a few translations of The Odyssey and this is the ONLY one that truly reflects the poetry of the work.
I don’t think Homer’s epic tale of Odysseus and his trials would have lasted through the centuries if it was meant to be read like a dry textbook and Fagles sets out [...]
