It may seem odd to do a review on a catalog, but this is one of the most comprehensive catalogs listing available DVD movies (and shows) that I have ever seen.  It is put out by TCM (Turner Classic Movies) in association with Movies Unlimited, and my husband and I saw it advertised on TCM one weekend when we were watching some old movies.  The catalog itself is $9.95, and with shippin...

When I finished the book, I kept thinking about the main character, Rica, a brave young girl w...

Listening to books on my iPod is about the only way I can find time to "read" these days. I have my account at iTunes set up to debit my PayPal account, so that means that with my earnings here at Shared Reviews, I sometimes treat myself to an audio book. Audio books are certainly not cheap, so it is important to do some research before purchasing. Often I opt for a favorite author to...

This has to be one of my most treasured non fiction books that I have.

The book, Neon Angel: The Cherie Currie Story, covers her experiences after being chosen at 15 years old to be lead singer for all-girl 70's rock group, The ...

I tend to devour books by authors whom I respect and the Lee Hammond selection of Art instruction books are no exception.  I contacted Ms. Hammond some time ago when I first learned of her technique for Art instruction and discovered that she had several books on the market and I wanted all of them!  As brazen as I can be at times, I sent off an email to her through her site and inqui...

I am a proud American who works supporting DoD. I am also from French Canadian decent.

This book came with a microbiology textbook I bought on ebay for $50 for both books. Unfortunately my college required a different studyguide. This one is almost just like the one I was forced to buy for $28+tax.

A few years ago, I had the opportunity to visit Alcatraz. As a young girl, I was fascinated and intrigued by this awful place that I had only heard about. I never in my wildest dreams imagined that I'd visit and tour the facility someday. I was so fascinated by my visit that I made a second trip and hope to return again. The ferry ride across took a few minutes and the anticipation grew as ...

I love a ton of books, as most of you might know, but Chicken Soup for the Girl's Soul is one of my particular favorites. The book is made up of several stories written by real teenage girls who have actually gone through that phase in life. It gave me great tips and lessons, and made me feel as though I'm not the only one out there that is having problems. It made me realize that there...
