Mom Said Kill (Pinnacle True Crime)

Burl Barer

Pinnacle, 2008

Worst Mom of the Year!
I have been criticized for writing what appears to be book reports and spoiling murder mysteries. Unfortunately, the true crime books are all about real people and the truth is out there regarding the circumstances of their crimes. The title says a lot about the ...

Sunday Afternoon on the Porch: Reflections of a Small Town in Iowa, 1939-1942 (Bur Oak Book)

University Of Iowa Press, 2007

Nostalgic
This is a wonderful book to evoke those bygone memories. The pictures bring back so many memories from my own childhood years. The writing just ties it all together and transports you back in time. It stimulates thoughts and feelings from a simpler and slower paced ...

Things the Grandchildren Should Know

Mark Oliver Everett

Thomas Dunne Books, 2008

What a wonderful surprise!
I knew of the author's music with the Eels, but one needn't know him at all to appreciate how special this book is. It's a rare memoir that can speak candidly of such heartbreaking events while making you laugh out loud at the same time (and I'm not the kind of person ...

Olympic Weightlifting: A Complete Guide for Athletes & Coaches

Greg Everett

Catalyst Athletics, LLC, 2008

OL summary
I picked this book up since I collect weight training books. Most books about competitive weightlifting tend to be repetitive of one another and this one is no different. The approach and intent of the book is reminiscent of Bill Starr's "Defying Gravity", the ...

The Five Books of Moses: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy (The Schocken Bible, Volume 1)

Schocken, 2000

Excellent
I used to say that it was pointless to try to study the Bible without Hebrew - that it was impossible to "feel" the text, to get the humor, the irony, the poetry. Not anymore. This is a must for any student of the Bible, as it captures the liveliness and strangeness of ...

Off Magazine Street

ronald Everett Capps

MacAdam/Cage, 2005

Great Book - If you read with open eyes
I struggled with this book at first, but time spent with the characters ends up being well spent. Yes, it is an unusual book. Yes, it blurs the boundries on what is considered "decent". Just one thing to remember... the author puts a few clues in front of us at ...

Wycliffe Bible Commentary

Moody Publishers, 1990

The One I Always Return to
In my junior year in college, my Christmas list consisted of this commentary, which at the time was being sold as a set together with The New Unger's Bible Dictionary. I remember how excited I was when "Santa" brought those two items, to be followed up a year later by ...
