For a 992 page piece of nonfiction, there are times when this biography reads like a page turner.

It's a good study of a complex relationship. Character growth is well portrayed.

First let me say that this book, in my opinion, is a 4 1/2 stars. This is by no means Christopher Pike's best book, which would be "The Last Vampire", no doubt. Christopher Pike has an incredible talent and precision for details.

One School at a Time2317 reviews Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin Penguin Books, 2007 Inspiring! Such an inspiring story. Being an Afghan and seeing the selflessness Mr. Mortenson displays gives me hope that the rest of mankind can be as open minded as seeing the middle east as full of PEOPLE (as opposed to terrorists).

I really wish it was longer, very entertaining, very well written, and pretty detailed.

Home sick today and just finished reading Irresistible Forces. It was a nice summer romance for the pool/beach. Not the best writing, but still good for just a fun, quick read.

Everest Disaster1580 reviews Jon Krakauer Anchor, 2009 Great "Personal" Account Amazingly I could never recall seeing any news items on this Everest tragedy in 1996.
