Histerically Funny!! Laugh out Loud, a Must READ.
This book made me laugh out loud.. its great, I would recommend to all who want to enjoy a good book. I just finished with "Are you there, vodka? Its Me, Chelsea" and found it not as funny but still good. Highly recommend both.. Can't wait for her next book.

Loved it!
I loved this book. It is hilarious and I felt like I was reading a book about my life. Having just turned 40 and being an overweight, ex-sorority girl myself, I could totally relate to Jen's dieting struggles and so many other issues. I have read and thoroughly ...

Great Stories, But Be Careful

One Minute to Midnight: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear War
Michael Dobbs

Knopf, 2008

We came so close...
Like most Americans (or maybe not...), I knew that the Cuban Missile Crisis was a dangerous time in the history of our planet. But until I read One Minute to Midnight: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear War by Michael Dobbs, I don't think I fully ...

Art In The Horrific Details
Stories of abused and battered children in Africa are legion, but few cut as close to the bone as this collection by Uwem Akpan. His five tales, two of which are novella length, are told with the uninhibited, truth-filled voices of the children involved. Each one ...
  
  











  



  
Just Do It: How One Couple Turned Off the TV and Turned On Their Sex Lives for 101 Days (No Excuses!)
Douglas Brown

Crown, 2008

Real life
I loved this book. Yes, it has some sex details in it to keep with the theme of the book. But it is really the story of love and the struggles of managing kids and work and life and family, while not forgetting you are a part of a couple. I had numerous ...
  
  











  



  
The Hollow (Sign of Seven Trilogy, Book 2)
Nora Roberts

Jove, 2008

What can I say..
This is the second book in a triology. The first book sets up the background and sets the stage for the first set of characters. Unlike other reviews I found that the background was more important because the characters continue into the next book. I think people ...

Great Summer Reading Book
I bought this book for summer reading and its a great love story. I couldn't put the book down, just was intrigued what would happen next? I haven't read any more books of E. Griffin, but I will surely continue reading her!! Would she finally be with the person she ...

The Happiest Toddler on the Block: The New Way to Stop the Daily Battle of Wills and Raise a Secure and ...
Harvey Karp, Paula Spencer

Bantam, 2005

Not what I expected
Although there were some good ideas in this book, I found comparing a child to a 'neanderthal'and all the prehistoric parenting talk (as if we are training chimps) a bit disconcerting. I also didn't care for suggestions to use 'magic words, magic or invisible ...
  
  











  



  
Batman: Year One
Frank Miller

DC Comics, 2007

A classic that leaves you wanting more
Many "Classic" Batman stories don't live up to the hype and Frank Miller's work is not always 100%, but this tale definitely is. I don't see it as a re-telling of the Batman origin as it is often touted to be, since the story mostly focuses on Jim Gordon and his ...
