The Real America: Messages from the Heart and Heartland
Glenn Beck
Pocket, 2005
Read this book!
I have only gotten halfway through the book since purchase, but I am amazed! Glenn Beck is one sharp cookie. I highly suggest this book to anyone, regardless of your political bent. Common sense really does still exist. Truly an inspiration during a time of ugliness in ...

The Piano
Michael Nyman
Chester Music, 1993
Impressive and Fulfilling
This buy was MOST definitly worth the purcahse. I'm obviously a huge fan of Nyman's but i was blown away by the notes he writes on page. THE PIANO sheet music only contains 6 songs, and two of them i have already commited to memory, and its only been 2 weeks. In fact, ...

Blue Gold: A Novel from the NUMA Files (The Numa Files)
Clive Cussler, Paul Kemprecos
Pocket, 2001
Fun to read
This is not by any means a brain stormer - it are fun to read action packed stories with just enough dialog to keep things going. I compare Clive's books to a movie that doesn't tax the brain or require 3 1/2 hours of your life. It is not "epic" or historically(but you ...

Ghost Hunting: True Stories of Unexplained Phenomena from The Atlantic Paranormal Society
Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson, ...
Pocket, 2007
Ghost Hunting
An avid fan of Ghost Hunters I watch the show religously every week. I think Jason and Grant's methods for investigating the paranormal are sound and add merit to a field of investigation that was not always taken seriously. Especially when their methods are first and ...

Dirk Pitt Revealed
Clive Cussler
Pocket, 1998
Informative, entertaining, and all around a must buy!
Written between Flood Tide and Atlantis Found, this book should be in any Cussler fan's library. It starts out with a clunky but entertaining enough story where Cussler wanders around a party in the hanger and reminices with Dirk's allies, girls, and villains before ...

The Girlfriends' Guide to Pregnancy
Vicki Iovine
Pocket, 2007
My Favorite Pregnancy Book!
I bought this book, along with a lot of other pregnancy books, when I found out I was pregnant for the first time. This was BY FAR the best.
This book is not a medical or scientific or a "week by week" book about pregnancy; it is a woman-to-woman guide on what ...

Dr. Spock's The First Two Years: The Emotional and Physical Needs of Children from Birth to Age 2
Benjamin Spock
Pocket, 2001
Great Resource for Parents - esp. first timers!
This is a very thorough, well organized resource for baby/child questions and issues from birth (even pre-birth) on up. I tend not to think any one book is a complete all in one - but this is pretty darn close. We also like that the advice and opinion offered is not ...

The Jordan Rules
Sam Smith
Pocket, 1993
Still a masterpiece long after its publication.
This is one of the great books that I had a hard time putting down. Sam Smith plays with our intrigue and wins out, enticing us to keep reading as we ask, "Did Isaiah Thomas really say that?" or "How did the Bulls stand together when at least half the team was ...

Stephen King
Pocket, 2003
From a Buick 8
What a nightmare this story is! And Stephen King does a breathtakingly adept job of guiding us through it with ease. State Troopers in Pennsylvania encounter a Buick, which is not really a Buick. The horrific and impossible plot is made so incredibly real with King's ...

A Holiday of Love

Pocket Star, 2005
Jill Barnett's story is the best
I originally bought this book for Judith McNaught's short story about Nicholas DuVille. It's actually one of my least favorites, but I don't mind because it led me to two of the most delightful stories I've ever read.
The first story is Jude Deveraux's story, ...
