This is a MUST READ!
I was hesitant to read this when I heard what it was about. I'm not much into sci-fi or futuristic settings...but I was told that it was a must read. I am SO GLAD that I listened and I have suggested it to many friends. The book is SO good that I actually downloaded the second book, Catching Fire, before I was done with the first so that I wouldn't have to wait AT ALL to dive into it. Now ...

As always Stephanie Meyer did a great job. It was interesting seeing Bri's viewpoint of the big fight.

Great dark, creative fantasy!
Two young friends introduced me to the Twilight Saga when they asked me to take them to see Twilight when it first came out. After seeing the movie, I bought the book and read it, followed rapidly by New Moon, Eclipse & Breaking Dawn, and I reread each story before it comes out at the theatre. The Twilight Sage is an adult fairy tale... creative, dark fantasy that can be enjoyed by teens and ...

Great afternoon read
A great, truly timeless story about Alice and the interesting characters she meets on her journey through Wonderland. I loved both films, and now I love the book. Read it in two sittings on my new Kindle. The best part about it is that it's free!

Beautiful story
I now have this complete set of books. I read this book in one day it was beautiful and smooth reading. Janette Oke is amazing and the saga keeps going in the "Prairie Legacy" series. If you purchase the "Love comes Softly" series then you really need to buy the "Prairie legacy" ones as well. You will be blessed and amazed as you you follow the Davis family story.

Are they perfect? No. Did I love them? YES!
Eclipse is my favorite Twilight book. I think it's because we learn so much more about Rosalie and Jasper, two characters that are very mysterious. Are these books the best ever? Probably not, but who knows? I mean, was Jane Austen regarded as great author or was she just a silly woman writing books for other silly women? The same could be said of Stephanie Meyer, a silly woman writing ...

The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson & the Olympians, Book 5)

Great fun. . .good mythology
This review is for the entire series, although The Last Olympian is a solid ending to the fun--the choice of title and who that last Olympian is--is truly touching. The entire series is another for us who remain kids forever! Hopefully Riordan will take his place among all the great writers who have produced "quest" novels that not only embody the best of our civilization, but find a place in its ...

The Katie Parker Production Series is an amazing one. This book will make you laugh, cry, && feel emotionally attached to the characters throughout the whole book. If you are looking for a fast, clean, wholesome, witty read, than the Katie Parker series is for you. I read all three books in the series & loved them all. These books deal with real issues that many people go through, && even though ...

Great book to teach mythology to teens and adults!
I am thoroughly enjoying this book. I also enjoyed the first book in the series. It's a great way to learn about mythology from a perspective that I think is very similar to the experience people had 3,000 years ago. The book definitely keeps you interested while exploring the world through the characters. Thanks for such a wonderful story!

The Book Thief

Markus Zusak

Beautifully written
The Book Thief is an easy read that I was unable to put down. The characters are well developed and the book paints such a vivid picture, you feel as if you are there, on Himmel street, with Leisel, Rudy and their families. I feel this book deserved more hype than it got, but then again--I think 2007 was around the time the Twilight books gained popularity for Young Adult readers--'nuf said. I ...

Incredible!
This is a MUST READ! I find myself a little sad that I've finished it and am dying for the third book to be released next month. Not a series that I thought I'd be interested in but I was obsessed with reading it...didn't want it to end but couldn't stop reading!

beauty and the beast-the best
This book was amazing. I have always wanted to know the true story behind on of my favorite Disney movies and this stoy did not fail me or my imagination. Even though there were different characters than in the movie, it seemed less nessicary while readign this. I highly recommed this book to anyone who wants a look at the classics! :)

Great collection, Navigable if you use the Kindle search function
This is a great collection of the Brothers Grimm's tales. The table of contents is a listing of all of the titles (no point and click) (which by the way there are over 200 tales) but just type in the title that you want into your Kindle (using the find function) and it takes you right to the story! Titles are in English and German. And the stories are wonderful. (Remember this is the real ...
