Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2008

Late but not left out
I am so glad that I did not start reading this series until just before Breaking Dawn was released. I don't think that I could have stood the wait. Did not start to even read the series until July of 08. I was not going to stoop to women's romance novels. I am a ...

Eclipse (The Twilight Saga, Book 3)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2007

Fantastic!
I couldn't wait to start this next book in the series and certainly wasn't disappointed. The books just keep getting better and more interesting. This one just like the last two are page turners. I was hooked on the first one and just can't get enough.

New Moon (The Twilight Saga, Book 2)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2008

GREAT!
I became a twilight series fan after seeing the movie. I have to say, I'm impressed at the development of this series. Little side conversations that seem like they were just added "fluff" become important as the series goes on! Bring your tissues for this one...

Mark Cotta Vaz

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2008

Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance

Barack Obama

Three Rivers Press, 2004

Dreams from my Father
Surprisingly well written personal history...not always a page-turner, but Obama gives real and honest insight about the very specific emotions of growing up the way he did. As such, it really reveals the kind of man he is...and the point view he's likely to bring ...

The Shack

William P. Young

Windblown Media, 2008

God's Perfect love
Because of the tragic death of our son, my faith and expectations of God fell short. "The Shack" brought me face to face with questions and answers between myself and God, showing me a relationship with the Triune God that is truly real. Thank you Wm Paul Young! ...

Outliers: The Story of Success

Malcolm Gladwell

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

How to "unravel the logic behind who succeeds and who doesn't"
In reviews of Malcolm Gladwell's previous books, The Tipping Point and Blink, I express an opinion that Gladwell offers an insight that others have previously expressed and then requires 300+ pages to discuss it. His key points in both books could have been made in an ...

The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel (Oprah Book Club #62)

David Wroblewski

Ecco, 2008

Riveting. Moving. Memorable
This is an amazing tale, written beautifully and full of mystical, poetic prose. I could not put this book down and commend the author for his original and breathtaking account of a very special boy. Without reservation I have recommended it to many and I anticipate ...

Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2006

Awsomeness
I have always wanted to read the book, even way before the movie,...and finally, i went out one night, saw the movie, fell in love, bought this book, fell in love even more, and I am about to buy the rest of the series. This is the type of book you CAN NOT put down. ...

The Lucky One

Nicholas Sparks

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

I have fallen in love with Sparks!
It has been a long while since I enjoyed a book as much as this. I love the way the men in Sparks' novels love so deeply. I found it hard not to flip to the end of the book, I wanted to know how it ended. I of course did not (a lesson I learned long ago) and was left ...

The White Tiger: A Novel (Man Booker Prize)

Aravind Adiga

Free Press, 2008

loved it!
Loved loved loved this book. To deal with the obvious comparisons, I was a bit lukewarm but contemplative about The Life of Pi. The book's conceit is wonderful. Up front, you know that the narrator Balram has done something bad to get to his current position of ...
