Customer Review: The first three chapters are startling, horrific and make you more appreciative of your own life, and those you love. The solution of getting over a dead kidnapped child? Only God can heal, and the pain will still be there. God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit come alive in real compassionate and wise... more info
Customer Review: First off - if you are interested in the True Blood series on HBO - get these books and get this set. I was STRONGLY recommended to read these books after talking about the show by a friend who read them when they first came out. So I did...purchased one at a time. Boy do I wish I would have bought... more info
Customer Review: I'm a big fan of James Patterson. I was so excited when I seen a new James Patterson novel coming out. I have to admit tho I was disappointed in Cross Country. If I hadn't seen the movie Blood Diamond I would have enjoyed Cross Country more. It seemed he took a lot of his writing from the movie. He... more info
Customer Review: I have enjoyed the "Camel Club" stories and must admit that this one was the most enjoyable because the "perils" never ceased until the very end. I think that the main characters have been given more fullness in this book than in his previous stories. This may be a maturity of writing that has been... more info
Customer Review: The White Tiger just won the Man Booker prize. It is a well-deserved award. (I first heard about The White Tiger when it won a place on the Man Booker short list.) Many others will write long-winded reviews, so I'll spare you. Suffice it to say that this is a terrifically fun--although not... more info
The Gate House from Grand Central Publishing Price: $19.79
Customer Review: I've read most of N. DeMille's books over the years, and esp. loved the The Gold Coast. While it's sequel (?), The Gate House, has a fairly strong start (up to p.140 or so) and end (the final 30 pages), the overly long vast middle section (500 pages or so) could have profitably been edited down to... more info
Customer Review: Lots of interesting characters and plot developments and twists with a roller coaster ride end that while quite satisfying also leaves the reader thirsty for more. Tragically for him and his readers the author has passed away before seeing his work published. Fortunately for us readers... more info
Customer Review: Don't get me wrong; P. D. James has written characters specific to some of her books that linger in my memory to this day, years after having read about them in one of her earlier stories. Even the most minor of her characters practically walks off the page in front of you while you're reading one... more info
Customer Review: This story of a Dominican family, from the 1930s to the present, as they face a curse because one of its ancestors once displeased the all powerful Dictator Rafael Trujillo. Each chapter is about a particular member of the family. Some of them are memorable - the Oscar of the title, a black teen... more info
Customer Review: After following the adventures and patriotic actions of Flynn's main character, Rapp, you find that both the author and Rapp stand up for the survival of America not by fighting "fair", but by fighting to "win". Sometimes the wrong way is the only right way to do it.
The book is a enjoyable... more info
