a lot of staggering, not too much genius really. the family story is, however, heartbreaking enough so...

Quick read. The book is presented in a countdown format so you start at page 100 something. It makes the book go pretty fast. It's from the same guy who wrote Fight Club and I have yet to read that. I think I may now, he has a fun writing style. Overall, not the best book but entertaining and fun to read.

Fairly average cozy mystery. Very cute of the author to make the chief of police's wife's name "Tammy Myers". I thought that Magdalena was not as tough as she sounded. It was nice to actually read the first book of a series before reading any others (I never seem to be able to read anything in order). Not sure if I would read any more in this series or not - guess I will decide based on each book. I will copy out the "Boiled Cookie" recipe though - sounds easy & good!

I bought this book for my classroom, but it's more appropriate for older teens. Paterson (Bridge to Terebithia) tells the story of two young women growing up on an island off the SE coast. Sarah Louise, a thin-skinned tomboy, has to deal with intense feelings of jealousy as her sister Caroline seems to get everything, including the strange, serious boy Sarah befriends. Sarah's crazy, religious grandmother gives the book its title. Paterson was a Presbyterian missionary at one time, but the book doesn't read like a religious tract. Sarah's anger is too caustic for that. The descriptions of life on the small island during WWII are good. This is a well-written "small" story that won a major prize.
Another Fantasy/Sci-Fi author trying to demystify Life. the Universe and Everything for us. After Carl Sagan and the persevering Isaac Asimov, Pratchett now comes to us telling us all we needed to know but didn't really care to ask. From the beginnings of the Universe, to the nature of Science (and its similarity to Magic) through Quantum Physics, Relativity, Darwinism, evolution and a lot of other eclectic stuff, this book pretty much has it in a nutshell. But there are a couple of things that makes it a little different and keeps us from completely disowning ole Terry. The first is a Discworld story that keeps running through the book, and our focus shifts to each issue according to the way the characters react to each situation on Earth. Also, his irreverence towards things is a bit refreshing. Well, not my favourite Pratchett, nor something I'd recommend to anyone, but it's OK.

This is a memoir of Romania's top spy for Stalinism's oddest creations - Nicolai and Elena Ceausescu of Romania. It stays by my bed, as important as my pillow. Anyone drawn to the concept of personality cults as a source of great comedy will find nirvana here. The Ceausescu's were appalling, banal, deluded. They watched old Kojac re-runs night after night in one of 27 palaces; they wiretaped everybody, preferably having sex. They built the second largest building on earth, and one of the ugliest. Elena had stubby yellow teeth, but they did her no good when she was gunned down in 1989. No one could have been more astonished than her at the moment of her execution. Read why.

Similar to The Fountainhead- in that it deals with architecture, ambition, and the individual's quest- but much more palatable for those who think Ayn Rand is a nut. Also, I desperately wanted to live in the hotel that Martin dreams up...
This book was really a joy to read, a good mixture of thorough reporting and personal reflection, and the writing is excellent. It did make me very hungry, though, and I'm almost embarrassed to say that I found myself cooking my own meals, checking labels for suspicious-looking corn products and planting basil in every available windowsill as I read it. There were two things that bothered me about this book, though: 1) All the eye rolling I had to do as people made quips about me reading a vegetarian book because I don't eat meat. This isn't a vegetarian's polemic. Omnivore's Dilemma, folks. It's right there in the title. 2) The subtitle is "A natural history of four meals." The book seems to be about three meals, not four, and it is bothering me to no end.

ball dont lie was a phenominal book a which sticky a teenager was trying to acheive his goal of becoming a basketball player. sticky had many things up against him such as the streets and racial predjudice. with stickys determination h is able to accomplish his dreams but it took alot of hardwork such as staying in the gym to practice on the weekends. at the same time sticky was deeply involved in the game of the streets being a freshman on a higher varsity team playing and saving a win stickys drama with the streets may have had an effect on his game but i can say it made a huge impact on his game. so if you are interested in basketball but struggles along the way to make yoube the best that you can be ball don lie is definitely the best book for you(my rating is 10/10).
