Id like to start out by saying I was not pushed or tortured by the great JAKonrath to write a review. Just beacasue he knows where I live, who I live with, and where I work, hang out, etc, Im not afraid of him at all! This book is his first in the horror genre. I must say I was scared and sick to my stomach at some points. The plot of the book could happen one day. I think the US Government should employ JA to combat all the terroists in the world with his ideas. World peace. Or give 100 PMS-ing women guns and drop them off to fight, world peace would come quick. I did like the main characters, and the dog and monkey. Any book with a monkey cant be beat. So read this book. Buy it. JA needs some psychiatric treatmnet and with this book comes royalties to find some good doctors for him! Thank you!

Tico is a bird who cant fly. One day he makes a wish to have golden wings. But then his friends get upset with him because they think he wants to be different. In the end his friends accept him for who he is. This is a great story of friendship and accepting others even though they are different. This is a great story for class bullies.

What an excellent read! This story had me tearing up within the first 100 pages. It's a story about this woman named Zoe Baxter who wants to have a baby more than anything in the world. But unfortunately she is unable to get pregnant, and her husband Max isn't very fertile. So they begin in Vitro which helps them produce a few eggs each cycle so she can try to get pregnant. She has a few miscarriages, but manages to carry one baby as far as 28 weeks...only to start bleeding at her baby shower, and to deliver a still born not long afterwards. Zoe is crushed, and I fully admit I cried. I had a friend who lost a baby, very early in her pregnancy, but all the same- losing a baby is losing a baby. I love the emotions that a JP novel can bring out in me. I also love that excited feeling when you are reading a book and can't wait to get back into it. This book did that for me. I read the first 60 pages or so in a waiting room and could not put it down. Unfortunately I had to because my two best friends read it with me and we agreed to only read a few short tracks at a time so we could stop and discuss. Anyways, after Zoe lost her baby, she found out she -could- try to get pregnant again. I guess she figured since her last pregnancy had come so close, that maybe the next pregnancy would bring her even closer to term and hopefully to deliver a healthy baby. But Max did not want to go through with it again, after finding out a disorder that Zoe had that made blood clots much easier to get. The baby had died because the placenta sheared away from the baby. Although it was dangerous, Zoe was willing to take a chance and try again. This is what tore Max and Zoe apart. He did not want to go through another cycle, the expenses of in Vitro were adding up and at that point he did not even want to be a dad. So he divorces Zoe. Then Zoe starts hanging out with an acquaintance she had met a few years earlier named Vanessa. The two start hanging out more and soon become best friends, and after that lovers. So now Zoe is a lesbian and since Vanessa is younger and able to get pregnant, Vanessa and Zoe want to use Zoe's embryos to get pregnant. Of course this is where the infamous controversy comes in, just like in all JP books. In order for the embryos to go to Zoe max has to sign off on it because they are his too. Meanwhile after their divorce Max was drinking and actually got into a wreck before he "found Jesus" and started going to his brothers church (he has also moved in with his brother at this point) so of course when he finds out his ex is now gay and wants to use the embryos to get her girlfriend (wife eventually, they go and get married) pregnant. Max can't have that now that his new Eternal God Glory Church (may have gotten that wrong) is totally against gays and he rather his brother and his wife Liddy who also can't have kids, get their embryos instead. So they wind up going to court over who the Embryos should go to. The situation gets sticky from there and in the end Max is rewarded custody of them only after Zoe gives in when she is accused of being inappropriate with one of her music therapy patients (she wasn't, it was a misunderstanding) but because Lucky, the teen Zoe is working with, is the step daughter of the Pastor of Max's church, of course it gets made into a big deal. At the very end of the book Max gives Zoe the custody and she and Vanessa have the baby, so there are two mom's, Max stays in the child's life so the child has a father, and SURPRISE- Max is now marrying his brothers former wife (in the book he had an affair with her and had always loved her) but just as in any JP novel, it doesn't disclose how on earth that happened but wow, what a shocker! So yes, I loved the story. Definitely one of my favorite Picoult books.
This is the first Sandra Brown novel I've read and I wasn't disappointed. I'll definitely be searching for more of her novels. From back cover: "T.V. reporter Tiel McCoy is driving to New Mexico for a well earned vacation when she hears the news on the radio: The teenage daughter of Fort Worth tycoon Russell Dendy has been kidnapped. Immediately, she abandons her holiday plans to chase down what could be the scoop of a lifetime. But in a town called Rojo Flats an innocuous stop at a convenience store thrusts her directly into the dramatic story-and a dangerous drama. For inside the shop two desperate young lovers are holding a half dozen frightened hostages...and a powder keg of a standoff is about to test Tiel's courage, journalistic objectivity, and everything she has ever believed." I must say, this was a page-turner!
Nice book. I was really worried from all the bad reviews. But it wasn't that bad. True, the girl has an opinion on EVERYTHING, which got a bit old, but it wasn't preached. It felt more like character developement than pulpit preaching, though it was a bit over the top. Granted, the girl was 16, but it just felt a bit immature. I prefer my YA books to feel like they are written FOR a 16 year old rather than BY a 16 year old. Big difference. But the book was an easy read. I enjoyed it. I've got the next in the series so I'll be moving on to it.

It may not be the greatest written word, but that's what it's all about. Brian shoots from the hip and tells it like it is. That's exactly how this book is written. I think the people that don't like it are pissed that Brian 'Head' Welch is now a Christian. They don't want to hear about it.

I shouldn't even rate this book, but I'm doing so because it reflects my experience, not the quality of the book. I wish Goodreads had an "I give up" category. It is definitely not the fault of the book. It's the unmathematical slant my brain has. This book has a LOT of math in it. I just couldn't get past it. The connection between religion and math was what brought me to this story, and I did learn about an interesting time when these two subjects crossed paths. I strongly recommend the book if the history of math is of interest to the reader.
I'm not sure why I felt I needed to re-read this...I think it was referred to somewhere and I couldn't recall it exactly. A classic and now I can't imagine that I couldn't remember these characters.
