I have been feeling tired and ill for a while and really didn't know why. I had gained a lot of weight in my abdomen in a short period of time which was making me depressed. Diets that I had tried made me tired or heavier. I saw this book and because I was once a nurse …more

by Lawrence Schiller

C Gauntlett
I can't understand why Douglas, the expert on crime scene profiling supports the Ramsey's. I read the book to believe that all other FBI profilers where able to pin point the crime on a family member. I have lost all respect for Douglas. What was he thinking? I …more

This book is a great book if you are having problems in life. I started reading the book and found other girls who are having the same problems as me.

Ophelia Speaks: Adolescent Girls Write About Their Search for Self
by Sara Shandler

(8/9/2001)

Erin
Many times we look at our life and convince ourselves that we are alone... Shandler proves us wrong. No one has been in our exact situation, but there is someone out there that's gotten close. Ophelia Speaks demonstrates that wonderfully. Each and ever story hit's home …more

Judith King
When I started reading this, I kept thinking it was an awful lot like To Kill A Mockingbird, and I think that was deliberate on Siddons' part. We have Peyton, whose mother died after her birth, Dad, Aunt Augusta, the members of The Losers Club: Peyton, Ernie who …more

N Is For Noose
by Sue Grafton

James
I'm only on chapter 12, but this book has already hooked me. It started out as a project for my mystery and suspense class, but has recently become a truly entertaining way to pass the time. If anyone out there wants to help me out on an essay topic, give me a buzz at white_jordan @hotmail.com

N Is For Noose
by Sue Grafton

(8/9/2001)

Ann Rigby
I really enjoyed this novel and liked the "on the road" atmosphere- i.e.. Kinsey away from Santa Theresa. A real sense of danger was evoked by the skilful writing and the plot was full of gripping twists and turns that kept me hooked. Vintage Grafton. Highly recommended!

My Dream of You
by Nuala O'Faolain

(8/9/2001)

Karla Powell
Good book if you can keep different thoughts of the author together. She switches quite often to different thoughts in the book. Sad, somewhat depressing, of a lonely woman trying to find herself.
It was o.k.

Steve
One of the best books I have ever read. A swashbuckling adventure in the finest tradition. This is a book I could not put down. After I finished I wanted more.
Also for Maria: Concerning the prophecy - It is FICTION. Don't take the story as factual please. Fiction …more

Maria
Wrong Information! Mr. Smith writes about a prophecy in Islam about a red haired boy who will come from the sea. There is NO such prophecy in Islam. Authors should be careful about incorporating fictitious beliefs in any religion.

Midwives
by Chris Bohjalian

(8/9/2001)

Angeria Lipford
I think that 'Midwives' is the best book that I ever read. I am a college student, and even though I had other assignments to do, I couldn't put the book down. I was so convinced that Sybil was innocent, even when Connie took some pages out of the notebook. …more

Karen
Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down! I was drawn to these characters as if I knew them. I kept having to tell myself that it was not a true story. I wanted to visit North Carolina and meet these people! Their story is so touching, it takes you …more

(8/9/2001)

Soeuth
It took me four years to read memoirs of a geisha. I read this book little at a time. It seem very boring but I never seem to let go of this book for some how I feel that I am saying. It might seem very boring at the beginning but after a while I realize that this …more
