Awesome
I just finished this book and I am at a loss for words. This book was touching, loving, amazing, it brought tears, and laughter, and just really made you think about life. The book is amazing and I recommend that anyone who reads it will be greatly touched!

Every Bit as Enjoyable as Twilight

Wisdom of Our Fathers: Lessons and Letters from Daughters and Sons

Tim Russert

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007

Buffalo Wings
The coasts have had too much influence on America for the last 50 years, beginning with Rock & Roll, I suppose, and the cult of youth. There is much to be said for the heartland beginning with the unglamorous mid-west and the great rust-belt cities of Buffalo, ...

Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time

Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007

a story that will stay with you forever
this book is extremly inspiring with the struggle that greg mortenson had to go through to make the dreams of others to come true expecially when most take the oppertunity of an education for granted there are still those who could only imagine what wonders an ...

The Monster of Florence

Douglas Preston

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

Very interesting non-fiction whodunnit
This is an interesting look at a major Florentine serial killer. It is part cultural exploration, part murder-mystery, and primarily non-fiction with a good dose of character development built in. Like many books of its ilk, the culprit is never proven, but along the ...

Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2006

i understand how people love this book so much
i really enjoyed the book, though sometimes i would just want to throw it down in frustration. That only means it really brings out your emotions, and its more like its really happening and less like its just another book. All in all, its probably the best book i have ...

Eclipse (The Twilight Saga, Book 3)

Stephenie Meyer

Little, Brown Young Readers, 2007

Enjoyed this book but...
I really enjoyed this book, just like the other two in the series. Meyer does a good job keeping the book "clean" but I didn't care for the detail she went into when describing their romantic moments. My husband and I have both enjoyed this series and are looking ...

Say You're One of Them

Uwem Akpan

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

This book commands you to think....
Say You're One of Them, by Uwem Akpan, forced me to think... outside of my country's borders; outside of what political propaganda trickles down through the media; outside of my own reality. It wasn't unusual for me to dread turning a page to see what lay ahead, yet I ...

The Book Thief (Readers Circle)

Markus Zusak

Knopf Books for Young Readers, 2007

Mesmerizing - absolutely remarkable
It is a rare thing for me to be compulsive about a book; a book that, when you are not actively reading it, occupys your mind, where you can't wait for a free moment to return to the story. _The Book Thief_ did this to me. The characters were compelling, the writing ...

Nothing to Lose (Jack Reacher Novels)

Lee Child

Delacorte Press, 2008

Another Jack Reacher hit.
Lee Child's latest Jack Reacher novel is a sensational suspense thriller as were all the previous ones. When I picked up the first one and discovered that both Reacher and I were MP majors, with thirteen years service, I was hooked on the Reacher character. It was ...

The Glass Castle: A Memoir

Jeannette Walls

Scribner, 2006

Life lessons and a true gift
A fellow West Virginian, I have read this book twice, and seen Ms. Walls in person twice at local speaking engagements. She is the real deal. Her story is inspirational to all of us, and teaches us valuable lessons in today's world of fortune and excess. Her ...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) (Deluxe Edition)

J. K. Rowling

Arthur A. Levine Books, 2007

The End of an Epic 10 Year Series
What a series. And to cap it off the way J.K. Rowling did - truly unbelievable. Harry Potter must set out on a mission with his two friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, to find and destroy Voldemort's remaining Horcruxes, the pieces of soul that are keeping ...
