I read this recently while on a trip, and I actually liked it quite a bit. Creepy for sure, with some interesting and unique characters. Not your standard murder mystery. A quick and entertaining read, perfect to take along on a vacation.

Pollan's The Botany of Desire is by far one of the best books I have ever read, and it is one of those books that has changed my world view for the better. Pollan takes his readers on an odyssey through the natural histories of four plants that have been important to the course of human history, and relates them to a certain form of desire that he believes to be inherent in each and every person. He chronicles the potato (sustenance), the tulip (beauty), cannabis (pleasure), and the apple (sweetness). His prose is unrivaled, and he draws readers into his narrative with seamless ease.

This was a really good book...it really took you back to the 11th century with a great story about a woman working in a mans field. I will look for other books by this author.

I liked this book. It's easy to love the characters. Great visual writing style. I disagreed with the amount of profanity for a young adult book.

This was one of the first books I read without pictures in about third grade, I think. It seemed very foreign to me (maybe because of the setting on the opposite coast and when it was written), but for some reason I loved it, probably because the guy is a loner and maverick. At least, that's how I remember him.

This is the story of Adam. On the way to his Uncle's funeral, his twin sister Anna is abducted by a lunatic hell bent on setting off 12 nuclear bombs on Christmas Eve. Chaos then ensues as Adam hunts for Anna. In his quest he teams up with a church robbing mobster called Filbert and a Croatian clown called Cherry Sundae who appears to only speak Spanish. Along the way he meets all manner of weird and wonderful people, some who help and some who hinder him in his search for his sister. This was on the face of it a thriller, but it was irreverent and laugh out loud funny. Over the course of 6 days poor Adam goes through more drama than any sane person should. The trouble is he's an idiot and bad luck seems to follow him. That being said he is a loveable idiot. I loved the characters - all nutters the lot of them but I cared about what happened to them and where their stories took them. The pace of the book was brilliant and I could not put it down, eventually reading it in two sittings. The humour was spot on, and the thriller aspects were, well, thrilling! The ending was great, and felt right for the book. It was an enjoyable romp and I couldn't help but feel for Adam as he tried desperately to find his but being blocked at every turn. I recommend this for people who like their thrillers with a touch of humour. I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my review.

This book is a compendium of lists of correspondences from 26 areas relating to magic. Since magic is based on correspondences, which are essential to communication between levels of consciousness within and without one’s own self, magic workers will appreciate becoming aware of more correspondences. The basic categories on which the author focuses consist of the Tree of Life, the Zodiac, the Elements, and the Planets. On page 13, there is a “Key to the Tables” that you will refer to often, consisting of 34 lines arranged by these 4 basic categories, and assigned a key and a path to easily locate their correspondences. At the back of the book, there is an explanation for the alphabetic codes that group the topics. Sources for the lists include Buddhism, Christianity, Alchemy, Feng Shui, Geomancy, Astrology, Islam, Judaism, Kabbalah, Grimoires, Orders, Alphabets, Pantheons, Chivalry, Tarot, Sacred Geometry, Hinduism, I Ching, psychology, Greek Isopsephy, and other disciplines, as well as color scales and the Wheel of the Year. Each of these categories is further broken down into many sub-categories and arranged in tabular format. Some of these lists are familiar. Others are not. The standard correspondences from Liber 777 are included. Much of the additional material comes from unpublished works such as manuscripts in museums and archives, where the ordinary reader is not likely to come across them. Skinner has provided access to material you may never have come across otherwise. Everyone should read the introduction, which introduces the history of tables of magical correspondences. Influential authors and their works are identified, and their historic significance explained. Skinner compares and contrasts his book of correspondences with Liber 777 by Crowley, which has been the standard book of correspondences for many people.. He also discusses the connection between the Tree of Life and Western Magic, and why he does not use the Path model in his correspondences. There are 19 classic black and white full page illustrations such as the constellations of Northern and Southern hemispheres, various Trees of Life and cosmologies, King Arthur’s Round Table, etc.. Examples of the kinds of lists you will find are as follows. Under the main category of magic, you will find subdivisions of magic, such as geomancy, tarot, etc. Natural magic falls into this category. For the subdivision of “Natural Magic” you will find lists of animals, plants, stones, metals, perfumes, and incenses. The sub-category “animals” is further broken down into real and imaginary animals and birds arranged by qabalistic, elemental, planetary, and astrological correspondences. This is a large, comprehensive book. Be sure to read the introduction, and prepare to invest some time in familiarizing yourself with the structure and the conceptual arrangements. Skinner’s goal was to organize and present a comprehensive collection of correspondences in a logical way. He has done his best to maintain columns of correspondences together only if they truly belong together. In general, I believe you will be very well served by the material in this book.

Much more frightening than the movie but with a far less potent conclusion.
I can only say that this book stays with me. An American classic.
