Gearing up to host this lady next week for a signing and podcast. This is one of the most honest accounts of parenting and all it's ins and outs that I have read up to this point. As someone ambivalent about having kids, I feel I am much better in formed about what it's actually like to become a parent as a result of having read this. Thank you for being so honest, Heather Armstrong. Your bravery and openness helps us all. --Caroline

Having read Bert Carson's book "Fourth and Forever" I wanted to delve into his world again, and so picked up "Southern Investigation." And was not disappointed. I can go on reading Bert Carson's honeyed voice for hours at a time without getting tired. He has the natural storyteller's gift that makes it look easy, and he has a fascinating story to tell. Southern Investigation is about a group of Vietnam veterans who stick together for decades after the war. They know each other so well they know what the others are thinking before they say it. And they love each other in a spiritual and esoteric way that maybe only other veterans of foreign wars can fully comprehend. This tight group of people form a company that's involved in private investigation work in the part of Alabama that they come from. They grow older as the years go by, righting wrongs and digging up information, keeping their skills and minds sharp. Their ultimate mission puts all their skills and beliefs to the test, and this makes gripping reading. Southern Investigation should be required reading for active duty servicemen and -women as well as veterans, and anyone else who is interested in understanding what might go through the minds of the men and women who are charged with defending our freedom.

I applaud Goldacre for his audacious exposé on some of science's greatest fraud. Reading the book is like watching Watchdog & i bet some people would even find some of the chapters appalling. Although not all people will be concerned by some of the issues raised (e.g. how MMR jab is linked to autism), it's imperative that people should be clever. Companies' (e.g. big pharmas) are only after their own welfare. Its a bitter fact. Their only aim is to make a profit. Period. They will do ANYTHING just to grab public attention & induce people to buy their product & rip people off. The way they control & distort scientific research & evidence just to get the medicine on the market is a perilous business. It is shocking to the core because it jeopardizes the lives of people. It's also a shame how very easy it is for the public to believe what the media feeds it. Just because an article says dark chocolate is good for us, that we take it as a gospel truth. Neither should we believe a scaremongering journalist that says taking nutritional supplements can be bad for our health. Consumers have to be smart. Im not as clever as these people behind these big pharmas/medical field/journalists/charlatans are, but after reading this book, i should know better.

After first setting my eyes on this gorgeous cover many months ago I had been looking forward to reading Delirium and was super excited when I finally got my hands on it (there may have been squealing involved!). Which makes it even more disappointing to say that the book really isn't that great. The writing is bland, the main character unsympathetic and the focus of the novel is completely off. The dystopian future it's set in is wonderful and imaginative but the brief insight we get into it only sprouts a million questions (What happened to all those over around 75 who do remember a world where love was deemed normal and healthy? How on earth can some people convince an entire world that love is in fact a disease in such a short span of time? Is there even a world outside of Portland?) meanwhile focussing on the highly unlikeable character of Lena - the most unlikely and thus unconvincing character in the book to turn sides and rebel. She seems perfectly content with all the rules the government has set out for the people and is in fact looking forward to getting the cure herself so she'll be free of 'the sickness'. This makes it even more unrealistic that she is the one author Lauren Oliver focuses on and wants the reader to root for. The final few chapters redeem the novel somewhat. It progresses swiftly with action packed sequences and the story moves into a more interesting and frightening part of the future world. And being left with an open ending, I will of course want to seek out the next instalment in the series hoping it will continue with this much more fascinating side of the story, and not fall back on poor and uninteresting storylines so central in the first novel.
This book was amazing! I actually loved it. This book is about a young boy and his father managing to live through their lives. They live in a boat and like all homes are, you have to pay the rent. The young boy, Chance, manages to keep up with his living by taking an easy job with lots of pay. He figured that his job was really easy until he found out what his job really is. If you want to know what happens in the book, I suggest that you check it out in the local library or from a friend.

Read for a book club. This would never have been my pick, but I don't regret reading it. The Last Lecture is a bittersweet book that encourages readers to achieve their childhood dreams. Typically, at the end of a teaching career, a professor gives a "last lecture" detailing what he or she learned, and what advice might be passed on to future generations. In Randy Pausch's case, this lecture came to mean something more. Randy was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and given 3-6 mos. to live. His last lecture was a farewell to friends and family, a record for his young children of what he hoped they would know was important.

My favorite history book - its an eyeopening tour into all the aspects of American history that are often ignored - the history of America from the perspective of Native Americans, African Ammericans, Women, immigrants, etc. It is a complete rejection of the "Great Man" history so many are taught in school. While some may think history is boring, this book is not at all - its well written, engaging, and a real page-turner I think it should be required reading for everyone!
I absolutely adored this book! I did not want to put it down until I finished it.
