Unlike “Generation Ecstacy,” Smith’s autobiography truly gives one a feel for the subculture that gets caught up in the drug Ecstacy.
Sadly, such a treatise is delivered as we see her pain and alienation and descent into drug problems.
It’s hard to not like Smith. She …

I don’t really understand the title of this book, just because the characters, while hard working, never really seem to move that fast. I enjoyed this book. While I have found dialogue in other books by Jennifer Crusie to be more enjoyable (read: funnier), the characters are fun and …

I wasn’t too sure what exactly this book was about —“ except a super computer (super collider) —“ but it turned out to be a pretty interesting story. Maybe “Brimstone” was more exciting, but this one has a better, clearer message inside it (I read this book right after …

I read Dan Brown’s Digital Fortress shortly after it was published. It was my first encounter with the author and, if it weren’t for all the hype around the Da Vinci Code, I probably would never have read another.
