Honestly, I don't know if I can recommend this book. I liked parts of it, but never felt fully invested in what happens to the characters. There was just too much crammed into the storyline (and too much sketchy science) for me to believe it well enough to lose myself in it. It wasn't bad writing, exactly, and I can't fully articulate what bothered me about it, but I am not sure I'm willing to pick up what is clearly going to be a sequel. (On the other hand, I said that about the Stieg Larsson series, and that's a good two months of my life that I'll never get back.) ------- edited after hearing an interview with Deborah Harkness. I appreciate this book (and her background as a write) a little more now. I'm upping it to 4 stars.

overrated...It's an interesting quick read, but boring in parts.

I really loved how Pratchett came up with his own uses for the pyramids and his take on ancient history, philosophy, and math was really entertaining.

This is just a dialogue of worship issues that don't really present solutions or conclusions to issues.
I wish I could give this 4.5 stars, but I rounded up because I love this author. This book has more magical realism than I usually enjoy, but I loved it just the same. A normal guy, a bit on the boring and lazy side, has an adventure . . .
Reviewed by Jaglvr for TeensReadToo.com Looking for a fast-paced murder mystery? Look no further than DEATH BY BIKINI! I know if nothing else, the title alone should make you stop and consider the book. Aphra Connolly and her father live on a tropical island. Her father left his resort in South Carolina to open the remote hotel four years ago. Most people would envy Aphra's life at the beach. But Aphra has no friends, no social life, and little to occupy her time except for the day-to-day operations of the hotel. The most her father can do to punish her is dock her pay. It's not like he can ground her. Where would she possibly go? To make life even more miserable for Aphra, her mother opted not to move to the island with them. She's had no contact with her mother in the four years they've been there. Enter the Smith family. It's late at night and a family arrives, without reservations. Being such a remote location and requiring a helicopter to arrive, this is more than unusual. Aphra has the reservation system computerized, but her father insists on handling these new arrivals. Following up the next morning to ensure her father has entered everything properly; Aphra can find no record of them. And to confuse matters further, her father has supposedly put them in the one villa that is being renovated. It's off season, and many other options would be available for them. It makes no sense. When the girlfriend of a frequent rock star guest is found dead on the beach, the intrigue picks up. From that point on, the action in the story is nonstop, rushing to the conclusion on the (expected) dark and stormy night. Mysteries surrounding her mom's departure and the strange guests all are revealed by the end of the story. With a token love interest for Aphra in the form of the Smith's teenage son, Seth, there is plenty in the story to satisfy anyone that will pick it up. There is romance (though very clean), mystery, murder, tropical locales, and espionage. What more could anyone ask for? It was a pleasant surprise to be so engrossed in DEATH BY BIKIN by Linda Gerber. I wasn't sure what to expect, having read her STUDENTS ACROSS THE SEVEN SEAS contributions. DEATH BY BIKINI is a totally different genre. But in all honesty, I believe that Ms. Gerber is much more suited to the thriller story than the S.A.S.S. series. I for one am eager to pick up the sequel, DEATH BY LATTE, to find out what Aphra is going to encounter next.

I really was fascinated how much influence the Irish background really was for the Kennedys. You get hints about it in other books, but this really fills in a much needed gap in the Kennedy literature. You should read this book to get a fuller picture of the Kennedy clan.
I know its cliche, but I really couldn't put this book down when I read it 3+ years ago. It may not be the most well-written book, but Brown does a good job of keeping the reader engaged and wanting more. Too bad the movie couldn't bring that to life too.

I really enjoyed this book right from the start. I liked following Ozzy's childhood and his story telling of all the jobs he had leading up to becoming the Prince of Darkness. What I wasn't expected was the humor. He and his ghost writer had me smile and chuckle a lot through this book and I enjoyed that unexpected pleasure. Although I listened to Black Sabbath a bit here and there I am far from a die hard fan but I thoroughly enjoyed "I am Ozzy"
