As always, Garwood's writing in this one was superb. It was an enjoyable time-waster through-and-through. The hero was yummy-fabulous and the references to characters and events from book #1 (which I LOVED) added to the story without being overbearing. My only complaint: A VERY naive heroine! How can someone so allegedly "mischievous" not know when someone is giving them the business? How can she be such a doormat in one scene, and a trouble-maker in the next? Constant eye-rolls. Her "misunderstandings" made the plot transparent and painful. My only OTHER complaint: Again, the heroine. I get that Garwood was trying to make her seem scatter-brained, but listening to her inane inner monologue over every manly glance and reaction and decision made me want to throw my book. She over-thinks things? Got it. Can we not go along for that 3-page ride in every scene? There are no perfect heroines, but there are great romances. And this is another keeper from Garwood.

I only read this after the Da Vinci Code. If the Catholic church were to go after any book, it should have been this one. I liked this one. But since I can't remember everything in it, I obviously wasn't as impressed by it.

This is one of the best books I ever had to read for summer reading. It introduced me to Chaim Potok's writing, and he is a fantastic author, and it also introduced me to the world of Hasidic Jews in America. I hadn't really ever known anything about the Hasidim before I read the book, and I was fascinated. The friendship between Reuven and Danny is really intriguing, and Danny's father is an equally interesting character. In many ways, Danny is very similar to another one of Potok's characters in other books (Asher Lev), but with a less developed story.
I immediately fell in love with this book! A massive fan of Abbi Glines writing I knew I'd love it! I was drawn t Dank and Pagan and loved the whole concept of their love and bond. He was always there looking out for her and I hope their love it still as strong in the books to come! I so KNEW Leif was not human! I had this feeling through the whole book that something was off and damn I couldn't believe it! I thought it was just me thinking that! I am so excited to read the next book now to see what happens!
Love love love John Hayden!!! Could hardly put it down. One of my fave Meg Cabot's books.
So much has been said by so many about this book that I feel silly saying anything. One of the best I've ever read and highly recommended for those strong of heart and spirit.
I LOVED this book. It is a very nonpreachy and often funny way to look at the the value of eating locally. It's packed full of interesting tid bits on veggies and growing...the farm girl in me loved it. It also has recipes and lots of very informative excepts on current political policies affecting the small farmer and consumer as a whole. I think I need to read it again and highlight this time.

I'm Canadian, and as such, I'm not terribly familiar with American literature. So when my old acquaintance Kate had a black day planner with the line "April is the cruelest month" scrawled across the cover in red nail polish, I had no idea what it was from. I asked her, and she said, "T.S. Eliot," but she was quick to add that she had no idea why April was crueler than any other given month. Flash forward a few years, and I'm living in America, preparing for my Praxis II test, centering on American Literature. I decided to give Eliot a whirl when a fellow tutor reminded me that he existed. She was able to inform me that April is cruel because the melting of the snow reveals the post-WWI devastation underneath it, and that the line was an ironic allusion to Chaucer. Sounded good to me. I've counted this as three books for my 50 Book Challenge this year, as it contains three separate publications— Prufrock and Other Observations , written in 1917; Poems 1920 , written in 1919, and The Waste Land , written in 1922. I wish that I could give the books three individual star ratings, but I make sure that I find the correct edition in the Goodreads catalogue, and stick to it. So, the reader should note that I give Prufrock and Waste Land five stars, whereas I give 1920 only two and a half stars. Anyway, I can only say that Eliot's work, while remarkably dense, is not so hard to get through here, where ample endnotes explain and annotate the references. The introduction is fantastic, and actually makes you feel like you've got a little knowledge under your belt before tackling the text. The poems themselves, of course, are breathtaking; the Observations speak to me in a way that no piece of literature has since I read Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller, an American expatriate much like Eliot himself. The descriptions of people and cities are erudite and cynical in a way that somehow woos you not only to Eliot's brand of cynicism, but cynicism in-and-of-itself, as a way of reading society like a book, detached. Miller seems to have cared a great deal more about things. The Waste Land is like The Canterbury Tales had it been written in the vorticist/modernist era and ran in BLAST . I think I've found a new favorite.

I really enjoyed this book but not as much as my boyfriend who read this during a flight to Mexico. I sat next to him and he didn't talk to me THE ENTIRE TIME b/c he was so engulfed. It was mine for the taking by the time we touched down. Pick it up, it's great.
