Alena Nolder _lena_older — Personally I find micro history a much more fascinating methodological approach than macro history. Actually, it's a bit of both: I like to gain an overall appreciation of a period or topic first before examining it in detail and finding out what it was like for those who lived through it. But I find the second part the most interesting. Enemy at The Gates is the most compelling, disturbing, and brilliantly written attempt to relate what being involved in brutal, relentless, close quarter combat is like for those involved and how it affects them. For (the vast majority) of us fighting street to street and house to house in an attempt to gain control of a city that is exploding and burning around us isn't something we can comprehend, but Craig uses diaries, letters and first hand accounts of the battle from both sides to give us an insight into the conditions of such a situation and the truly terrifying personal cost it has on its participants. Often it feels like you're reading a novel, particularly during the most intense phases, before you remember and appreciate the fact that this actually happened in exactly this way to these people, and it's a sobering thought.

Brunno Oliveira _runno_omoli — As I pick my favorite books, I realize this is another beautiful, engrossing book about a woman who overcomes a wild and terrifying upbringing. Her sense of humor about her experience is amazing. Think Rosanne Bar in Africa.

Anthi Koulama anthikoulama — I just want to say that I fell in love with Alaska too (just as Pudge did).

Mark Oliver markhawkins — A room painted bubblegum pink, with floral border wallpaper, sporting an immense collection of plastic unicorns is the best way to imagine the tone of "Captivating." It is written by a husband and wife team. I hate it when men try to divulge the secrets of the woman's heart to women, but the wifes commentary was even more repugnant (maybe because she should know better). The premise of the book was worthy, but ended up completely botched by the authors.

Ericka Castañeda erickacastaneda — Great pictures from the dump in TJ. All these years and there is a picture book of the area why didn't I think about that?

Lilian Nissopoulos _ilian_issopoulos — The synopsis says it all. This story is almost believable. I love the fact that the hero and heroine is just a normal person who has some unique abilities. The villain was almost scary because it does happen in the real world. The way that the hero tries to protect the heroine and the way he falls in love on first sight was fantastic to read. But he is an alpha male who think that the heroine is "mine". But they complement each other and I like it. I give it 5 stars because i really did enjoy reading this book.
