Basically anything that mentions the brand name, Jimmy Choo catches my attention, so the title of this book was a definite favorite from the start go.  Written by Annie Sanders, “Goodbye, Jimmy Choo” is a novel that fits snuggly into the “Chick Lit” category.  Unlike traditional British Chick lit novels, Sanders book is based upon two characters that could no...

Duma Key, a new novel by a favorite writer, Stephen King.This novel is more of Stephen Kings thrill reads than than spooky/horror genre he is so famous for.  I purchased this book for a recent trip, a cruise, with the notion that it would be a nice filler on the airplane.  However, it quickly grasped my imagination and I spent quite a bit of open time reading chapter to chapter engros...

  Novelle home bed sheet set is a wonderful set with just 1 pillow cover and a bed sheet.

It requires no special care.  The material is 100% cotton with 250 thread count. It is comfortable to sleep on even on hot days.  The print ...

Spice and Wolf is perhaps one of the best novels I have had the pleasure of reading in the last five years. I will state right now that I have yet to read a book that is better in its plot and characters than Mr. Hasekura's masterpiece. I am found eagerly awaiting the next chapter, wondering what surprises will show up. I would recommend this series to anyone whom enjoys a certainly -unique...

When I was approached recently by author Cindy Callinsky to read her autobiography Rear View Mirror, I had no idea the effects it would have on me personally. Through lives lived, loves lost, and challenges mastered, author Cindy Callinsky tackles the hardest treasure of human life, struggle, and wins. Rear View Mirror is Callinsky's first novel and you can certainly tell. The untainted nat...

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...

I picked up The Watchman because I read other books by Robert Crais and have always found him interesting.  I enjoy fiction mystery stories and try to guess ahead as to where the story is ultimately going to end.Joe Pike is Crais' alter-ego, super hero.  He is a private investigator - body guard - do whatever it takes handy-man  for hire. Like most heroes in fiction today he ...

I just finished a wonderful novel by Nicholas Sparks entitled The Guardian.  I have read and enjoyed all the novels he has written so far but I think that this is one of the best.In my opinion, I truly enjoyed how Mr. Sparks keeps the main theme of love story at the top.  There is also the underlying them of suspense that took the form of a maniac that will not stop at anthi...

The novel Skipping Christmas by John Grisham  is  a very good book. It is not the kind of book that you would expect John Grisham to write. Most people are accustomed to his mystery and more more serious subject matter. This is a light -hearted story about a man and his wife who decide the had rather take a curise and relax rather than go through all the streeses of the holidays . It ...

Douglas Coupland's lastest novel, JPod is nothing too surprising for fans of the author's previous works. Like most of his books, the author attempts to make timely social and cultural statement's with a tongue in cheek voice that seeks to let the reader know that he is on what everyone is already laughing about.This leads to what is perhaps the most redeeming quality of the te...

For readers who have gone through the majority of Charles Bukowski's works, the autobiographical nature of his middle age may have become worn out. Ham on Rye is a distinct book in the ouevre of Bukowski's works in that it sheds light on the author's early years which does a great deal toward explaining the later behavior exhibited throughout his career.Like most of his books, Ham o...

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 just recently within the last couple days finished reading "Duma Key" Written by Stephen King. This is the first Stephen King novel I have ever read that is why I gave my level of experience a low rating. I can't really compare this novel to any of his other novels because I haven't read any other novels by Mr. King.That being said by this novel alone I am very impressed and...

Over the years I've read many great books and usually when I find a novel by an Author that has intrigued me and kept my interest I seek out every book they have ever written and devour each of them.  Fred Mustard Stewart is one of my favorites.  His novels span many of the historical times in our world that captures the essence of the period involved and does so holding us captiv...

While there are a few things that vampiric legend got right in regards to the main character, she also can control fire, which is a pretty nifty talent to have, especially since most other vampires are terrified of fire. She hooks up with a vampire hunter (and trust me, there's plenty of hostility and barely masked lust bouncing around there) to take on the naturi, who are a form of elves/f...

This is the first book in Larissa Ione's new series. I actually seen the second book in the series at Wal-Mart, bought it then went home and realized there was another book first. So I hightailed it to the closest Hastings and bought this one. One word of advice though- the actual price on the back of the book is $6.99 and Hastings charged me $7.99, so you may want to try another book store...
