Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann
Harper, 2008
Fleeced
Dick Morris pointed out a lot of problems that needed to changed in this country. My take is John McCain is the one that can get a lot of these changes done.

Crepusculo (Twilight Saga, Book 1) (Paperback) (Twilight Saga)
Stephenie Meyer
Alfaguara, 2007
Bein pero no raro
No estoy seguro de la razon que este libro logra demasiado. Es un buena cuenta pero nada espactular. Probablemente ha logrado tanto porque los jovenes les gustan las novelas sobre amor y quieren sentirselo atraves las personajes si no puedan a si mismas. Probablemente ...

The Thirteenth Tale: A Novel
Diane Setterfield
Washington Square Press, 2007
A perfect read...get your tea cup and plate of cookies on the table by your side and curl up for a great read!
I have recommended this book to all of my friends, and to random strangers as well! This is one of the most original plots - grabs you from the start and holds on for a wild ride. You will not want this book to end. It's one of those that calls to you from wherever you ...

Twilight (Twilight, Book 1)
Stephenie Meyer
Little, Brown Young Readers, 2005
A little reluctant.
I have to admit considering I have a fantasy/sci-fi book addiction I tried to avoid this series all together. Well two days ago I finally gave in to one of the most endearing stories. I loved this book and I can't wait to read New Moon. Considering I read Twilight ...

What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington's Culture of Deception
Scott McClellan
PublicAffairs, 2008
Fantastic Book
As someone who is left-leaning I tried to read this book without any preconceived notions. Mr. McLellan's book is an extremely well written history of what happened during his time working for George W. Bush. When there are facts to be presented, he presents them as ...

The Irregulars: Roald Dahl and the British Spy Ring in Wartime Washington
Jennet Conant
Simon & Schuster, 2008
Fun History/Biography
I don't know if this was intended as serious scholarship, but it is a fun look at a a well known historical era from a novel view point. It reminds me a bit of "Rosenkrantz and Guildenstern are Dead", with Dahl and Ian Fleming as the side characters in a famous drama, ...

Nineteen Minutes
Jodi Picoult
Washington Square Press, 2008
wow
i ended up reading this shortly after a school shooting had just taken place. the compassion that picoult takes when fleshing out the characters and never telling you what is right and wrong, but instead letting you decide for yourself is one of my favorite trademarks ...

Salem Falls
Jodi Picoult
Washington Square Press, 2002
Jodi Picoult Does It Again
Jodi Picoult is one of my new favorite authors. She certainly knows how to write a page-turner and how to straddle the line between "serious" and popular fiction. So far I have read Plain Truth, Harvesting the Heart, My Sister's Keeper, and this novel, Salem Falls. My ...

Good in Bed
Jennifer Weiner
Washington Square Press, 2002
Great Start, Slow Finish
I read this book on Kindle, so I got to read a sample chapter before I bought it. The first two thirds of the book are really funny, and surprisingly well written, with enough twists and turns and great laughs to keep me avidly turning each page. Then the author gets ...

Plain Truth
Jodi Picoult
Washington Square Press, 2007
Judgment without mercy will produce evil
An excellent story in an Amish setting. It's annoying when writers insert details about the Amish that don't ring true for those of us who know the Amish and how they live. This novel was devoid of those errors. It truly depicts the way the Amish think, live, and ...

Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4)
Stephenie Meyer
Listening Library (Audio), 2008
Loved the whole series
I really liked the whole series and I'm sad that it's over. I spent more time just reading and enjoying it than picking it apart like other reviews. What's relaxing about trying to find mistakes in the book instead of just reading?
