The Account is a brilliant, intense thriller, that starts out introducing a young man, Steven Renner, who has always seemed to remain at the cusp of his family's expectations. He is enticed by money, sex and a promising future, when a firm makes him an offer he can't refuse. After his suspicions become peaked, he begins to do some investigating on his own and becomes quickly engulfed by a whirlwind of crime and deceit, in a world where nothing is what it seems. Laced with sex, humor and an in depth look at the happenings behind a corrupt firm in the center of one of the world's largest financial districts: Wall Street, The Account not only makes us care about the characters, but it is filled with effective, witty dialogue and a progressive build-up that takes us to an explosively satisfying ending, with a surprising twist!

I sadly did not like the characters and grew apathetic by the end of the story. However, the premise of the novel is definitely an interesting idea, since many masterpieces rely on real people for inspiration.
High school as a metaphor for the holocaust. Sad but amazing!

I've been reading these along with my 8-year-old and have a hard time putting them down! I think that this was my favorite one so far.

Armadillo, dressmaker's dummies, hands, and beautiful descriptions.
This is just a great novel-it has mystery, evil, redemption, humor, and beautiful writing. You must read it!

Good book, but the essays are uneven. Some are very good, and others are not worth reading. Although she has been said to be "another Sarah Vowel," she isn't.

Drinkwater: A Sobering Tale of a Medieval Knight by Otto Scamfer is one of the best books I've had the pleasure to read in a long time. It is a sheer delight to have discovered this fine gem in a sea of mediocrity. Over the years, I have grown cynical about the books I read. Even some of the better books I've read seem to take themselves too seriously or not serious enough, resulting in a reading experience that is often hit-and-miss. It is rare that a book moves me from the very first page. But...more Drinkwater: A Sobering Tale of a Medieval Knight by Otto Scamfer is one of the best books I've had the pleasure to read in a long time. It is a sheer delight to have discovered this fine gem in a sea of mediocrity. Over the years, I have grown cynical about the books I read. Even some of the better books I've read seem to take themselves too seriously or not serious enough, resulting in a reading experience that is often hit-and-miss. It is rare that a book moves me from the very first page. But from the start, I knew Drinkwater was going to be a memorable read. Drinkwater is the story of an alcoholic young man named Winston Tabor who has lost his status as a knight-in-training and succumbed to depression. One evening, as he is leaving the local tavern in a drunken stupor, he is attacked and nearly killed by his father's enemy. Upon surviving his grievous injuries, he discovers that he has been framed for his father's murder. Winston is hunted by the law and is forced to remain in hiding even while he deals with his overwhelming addiction to drink. The story that follows is one of hope, courage, and redemption. I am very impressed with this book and find myself constantly recommending it to others. Not only is this book well-written, but it also has a positive message, one I might add it does without being overly preachy. The best praise that I can give this book is to say that it is very rare for me to find a book that I enjoy without fault. There was never a single moment during my reading where I found myself bored by what was going on or speed reading to get past meaningless text. Every scene flowed easily into the next, making reading this book an thoroughly enjoyable one. Needless to say, I will be following the career of Mr. Scamfer and look forward to seeing what else his furtive mind can conjur up. If his other books are even half as interesting as Drinkwater, then the future will bode well for us lucky readers.
When I discovered Imogen Cunningham I saw the type of life I wanted to live. She did her own thing and captured amazing images. I want to be able to see like her. The cover photo of this book makes we wonder about the setting, the story and what happened next.

在我写了关于圣经的感受之后,这本书是朋友推荐给我的。我同意他的许多说法并不令人惊讶。我对摩西和圣经中的许多其他人所做的事情感到厌恶,并声称上帝告诉他们这样做:杀害,偷窃,强奸,奴役等。圣经中有太多的习俗,人们现在不容忍,这应该是上帝的启示吗?我很久以前决定,圣经充其量只是一本历史书。它讲述了一个很久以前的人的故事。它包含了他们的信仰,迷信以及他们试图了解周围世界的方式。潘恩实际上说这更像是一本寓言故事……故事和传统传承了一代又一代,并在故事本该发生的数百年之后才写下来。潘恩谈到基督的教mostly大都是善良的,但有些观念对相信他们的人有害。对于一个好人或“像基督一样”的人会虐待自己的想法,我也感到沮丧。假冒伪善者似乎最想教这种教导,他们想进行虐待和虐待。它创造了让自己受到伤害以变得良好的人,以及因伤害他人而得到回报的人。我已经看过这个想法如何在虐待关系中反复出现,并且我对那些继续教导它的人感到愤怒,好像它是好的和真实的。 (如果当我伤害你时我爱你,为什么你应该改变并停止伤害我?如果我保持虐待性的关系,并且当他虐待我时更友善,我只是在教他虐待我。)所以……我同意并赞赏他的大部分著作。我喜欢这样一个想法,即世界上所有的创造物和科学与美丽都在说上帝。我们不需要人的话就可以告诉我们什么,因为什么本身就可以说明。
