My dad and I, for those of you who don't already know, are HUGE movie lovers. This week we bought "Stranger than Fiction" with Will Ferrell, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Dustin Hoffman, Queen Latifah, and Emma Thompson.For this movie, the only one so far, my dad and I disagreed on the quality.I, personally, thought it was HILARIOUS and very entertaining.He, however, thought is was funny, ok...

This is quite possibly the greatest collection of science fiction short stories ever assembled!  Isaac Asimov is a legend for a good reason: he's a great storyteller. He is a master of using old story archetypes and transforming them for a new generation as well as creating new stories that prey on our worst technological fears.  And, he does it all so well without resorting to us...

Another great book by John Grisham. A Painted House brings us the story of a young boy, 7, in Arkansas in the summer of 1952. Luke Chandler is that boy who must help his family in their cotton fields, along with the many Mexicans and hill people his father employs. But danger lurks around the corner when a murder is committed by one of the hill people, and Luke is a witness. Mystery lurks ...

Oh the excitement, yet thrust of fire through my stomach, I felt when I read a recent email. Just when you think it's all over for good, here comes another one. Another witchy kid fantasy to fascinate and entice the minds, hearts and souls of our kids. Yippee, something else to distract them and toil with their minds.Just when Harry Potter dies, another little witch comes along. Only this t...

I have always been an avid reader, and one who loves great literature.  I had read Maia by Richard Adams in college and had grown to love the book.  A few years back I decided to look for the book and found a used copy at a rock bottom price.  I just couldn't resist.It was used, but it was in great shape.  It is a book which I read over and over again.  It always ma...

I picked up Heart Shaped Box, not really hoping for much, just some distraction from summers heat.What I found was a wonderfully complex and tautly suspenseful thriller, written by none other than the son of Stephen King. Jude Coyne, a middle aged heavy metal rock star, is enjoying all the perks that come from fame: a beautiful home, sexy Goth chicks in such numbers, he names each one for the s...

Jim Hougan's book, "The Magdalene Cipher" was a book I picked up at a local library sell. I am very glad I did. The book was entertaining and kept you wondering. This book kind of reminded me of Dan Brown's "The Davinci Code" (which I loved) only not quite as good or controversial. The storyline:Down on his luck Jack Dunphy happens to stumble into a secret socie...

This book was a great read; I have actually read it twice now.  In the beginning it really makes you think about the value of human society, and being a science fiction book, it explores many avenues of scientific possibility that are wonderful and thrilling.  It is written about the future of the earth after a deadly war and the chance to restore the planet to its former glory.&...

Getting Things Done has literally changed my life.  That may sound like a cliche, but it's still true.  Written by David Allen -- "the personal productivity guru"-- this 21st century self-help classic takes you from paper stacks, to-do overload and total confusion to a glowing light at the end of the tunnel.  Allen teaches you about the power of the s...

I read this novel about a month ago, and it is a novel that I will never forget. It is about a man named Henry who travels in time, and meets the love of his life, Clare. The story tells their complete story of their love life. Its a beautiful love story, that helps you realize what's most important in your own life. It's really one of those stories, that makes you sit back and think ab...

      This non-fiction book entitled "The Golden light " was written by Walter Cronk in 1964 in Los Angeles, California and contains 197 pages. I first met Lt.Col. Walter H.

        This is Volume 2 of The Missing Books of The Bible and contains 488 pages. It is printed in Korea but it originates in Media Solution Services in New York City. I was surprised to see a nice cover on this book and yet the paper pages were of a very poor quality. It really was quite inferior to what I've been used to seeing in most books. Inclu...

I highly recommend this book if you're a fan of reading. My sister's keeper is another wonderful work by Jodi Picoult. Although I have not read any of her book, and being someone who don't really read, I picked up this book after much persuasion, and fell in love with it!It's not too long, and it has such a twisted ending, I believe it will leave a deep indent in you. I cried at...

  I thought this was a good book and worth my while reading.  It is a book that really makes you think about ethics.  Kate has a rare form of Leukemia and her sister Anna is the perfect match for bone marrow transplants and blood transfusions.  Anna does not want to keep donating and hires an attorney because she wants her medical decisions to be her own, not her parents. &n...

  This was a decent book, but I probably won't read any more from this author.  A pilot cheats on his wife and finds out much later that he has a son.  After the son's mother dies, she requests that the son go live with the father he never knew about.  It tears the family apart.  With God's help, they must put the family back together.   I thought the b...

            This book was not as good as I expected it to be.  I thought it was well written.  The writer does a great job with her descriptions and I could really picture the story.             Although it was well written, the story was lacking.  Alice is a young girl w...
