I am a big fan of the TV show House in which Laurie stars as Gregory House a somewhat snide and critical yet brilliant doctor. That being said I was very hesitant to read this novel because I was afraid that it would not be all that good …

Believers in Christ across the nation and overseas constantly ask themselves why they feel no joy. After all, the Bible tells them they should feel joy in knowing their salvation through the blood of Jesus. Max Lucado explained why so many Christians lack the promised joy in his book …

This is one book every aspiring manager, for that matter every manager should read. Jo Owen strips the management jargon of its fallacies and outright lies.

I read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn recently and found the book to be fairly straight-forward and interesting as well. However, for the parts when I did not understand what was going on or for a list of all the characters and their roles in the story, I …

Now, this complete Calvin and Hobbes set is about $90.00, and it’s quite worth it for die hard fans.
The author of this story is Bill Watterson, and he has conjured a good writing on the musings and antics of both Calvin and Hobbes. I managed to read the …

I found this book for preteens to be quite different from Avi’s other books, although just as good. It’s a good book for kids who have siblings, or for kids who are different from their peer group.
This book is about a pair of twins who are very different from …

This is the first book of a two-part miniseries and it’s titled Deadly Voyage. In here, the Wakefield twins and their friends are off to an island for a science trip, and when they’re expecting sun, swimming, and sand all the way, they get hijacked by two thugs who …

Any book by Rick Riordan is undoubtedly an event in the genre. I think everyone will agree that no one writes fantasy like him. Some authors describe romantic stories in which, however, nothing happens. Other writers emphasize on the continuous action, but the emotion is left behind. But with …

I originally picked this book because I enjoy the subtext on the Xena show and wanted to read a novel that was slightly different, but similar at the same time. There are dozens of novels in this particular genre to choose from. Jo and Cadie are very believable characters …

I usually buy cars for the love I have for …

The Kite Runner was the first book that I ever read about Afghanistan and its brave and proud people. So far our images of Afghanistan were all deduced from the TV images of the war there, and from articles written by various journalists, mainly about the Taliban .
The Kite …

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 …

Ann Coulter is certainly controversial and her new book, Godless, has spent quite a few weeks at number one on the New York Times best seller list. (It sold 45,000 copies in one week)
Coulter is popular. Right wing books are popular. (Leftist Al Franken’s recent book saw a first …

Pet Semetary was just about the scariest book I have ever read. Stephen King is a master at making sure you stay awake for the next two weeks. The book starts off really slow, in my opinion, with nothing really happening except Louis Creed’s(the main character)family going on a …

I recently read Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton. This book seemed interesting because it was described to me as a romance novel. It was set at the beginning of the 20th century in a small town in the WInter. There are many prominent themes such as …

The book title, After the Kiss: The Notorious Gentlemen by Suzanne Enoch has a raunchy cover. But don’t underestimate the quality contents of this book, because it is not about racy scenes only. In fact, there are elements of romance inside that I truly enjoyed reading. I …

My daughter recently purchased the book Happy Holidogs at a book exchange at her school. I wasn’t sure what to expect from it, but it did turn out to be a somewhat decent book.
Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t Moby Dick or anything like that. But, it is a …

“Lucy at the Movies: The Complete Films of Lucille Ball” by Cindy De La Hoz is a book that I think will be of interest and enjoyment to Lucille Ball fans. It has nothing to do with the “I Love Lucy” series and instead focuses on Lucy’s movie career. …

I got this Latest Luzon Road Guide in one gasoline store a few years back when I found it in the back of their store. I was always driving around the biggest island in the Philippines, and I wanted, no needed a map that was accurate. This was published …

I grabbed the Hungry Girl cookbook because it seemed like a cute approach to cooking. The book cover actually looks a little like one of the Rachel Ray cookbooks and the author has apparently read her books because it has a lot of things in common with her books. …

“Dracula” is a novel I have a lot of respect for, but can’t say I’ve enjoyed reading. It’s definitely a classic of Gothic literature, and it deserves to be, but for the average modern reader, who knows the story quite well, it’s not that exciting.
The characters are one-dimensional, …

This was the story that made me love reading comic books again. First of all, it was a super hero story, but it was also a mystery novel. I don’t usually enjoy mystery stories. Most of the time I have the answer figured out before the …

“Astonish Yourself” is a self-help philosophy book, something rather unique in my experience. Don’t let yourself be frightened away by the word ‘philosophy’, it’s really a very accessible read. The book is made up of a series of experiments meant to makes us think of our place in …

“Fear Street” was a series of books written by R.L. Stine, the same author who wrote the series of Goosebumps novels for children. Although the two sets of books were similar, the difference between the two was that the “Fear Street” set of novels was written specifically for teenagers …

Titles can really be misleading, Jiro Matsumoto proves that on probably one of the deepest manga I read, Keep on Vibrating. The title seems to be a sex-hungry type of manga but it isn’t just senseless sex and violence. The manga contains extreme amounts of sex, violence, incense, blood, …

This classic from Stephen King seems as overlooked as the film it would later inspire. That’s a crying shame, because King does not only deliver us an interesting heroine with Dolores, but practices with an engaging style.
The book reads as a continuous narrative, as Dolores recounts her …

I loved this book.
It builds well from the last book “Hermits Peak” and adds great tension to the life of Kevin Kerney. This is the first book in which a romantic relationship continues beyond one book. Sara Brannon attends the Command and General Staff College in Leavenworth, Kansas.
Kerney is …
