The Guy Not Taken by Jennifer Weiner

I did not care for Jennifer Weiner’s “The Guy Not Taken”. This book is a collection of eleven short stories. The stories range from a girl trying to win someone’s heart to wondering about ex loves.
Each story started off great. The story lines were good, with …

Hattie Hippo by Christine Loomis

“Hattie Hippo” is a children’s book written by Christine Loomis and illustrated by Robert Neubecker. It was published by Orchard Books in 2006. The book is really a small collection of short stories about a cute little girl hippo. My daughter loves hippos and liked the book.

Eleven Minutes book by Paulo Coelho

This book held so much promise for me when I read the summary at the back cover. I can relate to people who have lost their faith in love that’s why I wanted to see how Maria bounced back from that funky period in her life. I loved the …

“The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” by Stephanie Meyer

I want to preface my review of this book by saying that I am not, even slightly, a fan of the Twilight series. I read the books and saw the first two movies to see what the fuss was about, and I came out of the experience feeling …

Men at Arms by Terry Pratchett book

“Men at Arms”, by Terry Pratchett, is the second installment of his ‘Night Watch’ series of books.

Chicken Soup for the Mother’s Soul Book

For $12.95, it first seemed like a pretty expensive book to read just other’s stories on their life experiences on love, trials, troubles, and carrying on, but once I read some stories here I thought this was a really great substitute or if not even better than a bowl …

Cell by Stephen King, book

Stephen King’s Cell has always been one of my favorite books. I purchased it for about $10 at a local bookstore and find it well worth the money. It tells the story of three people Alice, Tom and Clay. Each are drawn together when the world as they knew …

Last Days of American Crime 1 of 3, Comic Book

The comic book industry seems to have been in this infinity loop of stories that are either the same or rehashes of older stories. This can be said to some of the biggest events right now or ones that just finished. When someone does try something new they do …

In Love With Her Boss by Christie Ridgway

Though one of her older novels, “In Love With Her Boss” still demonstrates Ridgway’s ability to craft a mildly entertaining and sweetly charming tale of two people overcoming the insecurities of past relationships to fight for each other. Lori is the vulnerable yet headstrong female protagonist attempting to …

Dogs and Goddesses book

This seems to be a really popular book, considering it got up to 24th on the New York Times list. But Dogs and Goddesses by Jennifer Crusie, Anne Stuart, and Lani Diane Rich, didn’t feel like a bestseller to me.
The story itself was good, with interesting events and …

The Watcher by James Howe book

This book is written with great care for a difficult subject, brutal honesty and painstaking beauty. However, it loses a few points because its slimness, design and larger print make it seem like it may be appropriate for a ten or eleven year old, and I don’t personally …

Frogs into Princes, an introduction to NLP

As my title says, “Frogs into Princes” is an introductory book to the discipline/technology called NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), written by its founders Richard Bandler and John Grinder, in 1978.
Firstly, Bandler and Grinder clearly state that they are not a new “school” of psychology, nor they are intending to become …

Kabuki Volume 1: Circle of Blood by David Mack

Being somewhat of a graphic novel novice (graphic novice?) I haven’t read too many of the the things. I’ve always liked the look of them, but never have I encountered one that has a gripping, engrossing story. I have, however, read enough to realise that David Mack’s Kabuki is …

Tuesdays with Morrie

Although it’s been read by several, I can’t speak highly enough of this book. It’s a true story of a student and a professor, Morrie, who is dying of Lou Gherig’s disease. He spends Tuesdays with him talking about life, death, happiness, marriage, etc. It is appropriate for …

Book Every Friday by Dan Yaccarino

“Every Friday” is a children’s book by Dan Yaccarino published in 2007. My daughter and I love Yaccarino’s books, and this is a good addition to his collection.

Stephen King’s “The Tommyknockers” book

The “Tommy Knockers” feels different from many of the other works of King, and it well should. This is my least favorite novel in his long collection of work. I went into it expecting a horror novel and found myself reading a book that doesn’t fully understand the intricacies …

Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu

While I still think Bram Stoker’s Dracula is the ultimate Vampire book, I have to admit one of the stories he drew inspiration from is pretty good too.
Sheridan Le Fanu’s novella Carmilla is an awesome story and, if I didn’t already know it was about a vampire, would have …

The Stranger by Albert Camus book

Meursault, the lead character, does not have anything humane about him that made me want to root for his success in any part of this story. I mean humane in the most literal way when he didn’t seem to care about his mother’s death and in another way when …

“The Alchemist”, by Paulo Coelho
