Honest look at natural childbirth by a midwife with experience dealing with OBs & challenging situations
I read this book with the expectation that it would provide a straightforward look at natural childbirth from the perspective of a midwife who has "seen it all before"...and after finishing it, that's exactly what I feel like I got. At 38 and carrying my first child, I want to be informed about the birth experience I'm about to have. I was not scared by the (few) outcomes the author portrayed ...
The Book
9 reviews, 2010
The future? I hope not.
"The Book" is set in the future where all reading is done on an electronic reading device - not unlike the Kindle I used to read it myself. Others have compared it to Orwell's "1984" and Bradbury's "Farenheit 451" (which figures into the plot). The comparisons are both obvious and apt because these two classics share some of the same themes of government control, censorship, and the importance of ...

Lovely book!
This is a wonderful book. I had a hard time putting it down. I was laughing and tearing up, sometimes at the same time! I didn't want it to end...

Told in buoyant verse, this story is an entertaining introduction to the idea that achieving begins with believing. The father/son relationship is a special element of this story and is celebrated in the author's dedication: "[To my father] ...

An outlet for your thoughts during the griefing process
I purchased this book for a friend several years ago after the tragic death of her daughter. She told me how she still uses it to express her thoughts even after all these years. She calls it her lifesaver. Well, my mother and sister both passed away a few months ago and she returned the favor by giving me a journal. I use it all the time to record memories, thoughts, etc. So, I decided to ...

Life changing book
This book was read front to back at least 3 times so far by me. The first time I read it, I couldn't help but go back and re-read, because I would get lost in prayer and my amazement for God. It is an amazing book, and a must read. I would suggest it to anyone who wants to grow closer to God in a very intimate and human way.

A must read
For anyone interested in history and the development of our country, where and how many of it's traditions and culture came from this is a must read. Extremely well researched and written. And a very informative explanation of the Alamo and those who were there.

Perfect
A year or two ago, I bought this book not unlike the others here ... as a skeptic. But I figured, I liked Soul Catcher, so maybe this would be good to do as well. The questions posed in this book really hit home. They really opened me up to the possibility of love (after a truly horrendous break-up, I didn't think it was in my future ever again). So I feverishly filled out as much as I ...
Louisburg Sluggers A Novel

Great start!
I learned of this novel recently and had to check it out via Kindle for PC... I read the sample and will have to purchase the full text. This was a very easy story to capture my interest, which is not easy, and if you are a Boston fan you will appreciate the lead-in. Thanks for the recommendation Patty!

Great Adventure Book
I've read a lot of fantasy in my life, some good and some bad. Luckily, THE GOD CATCHER falls into the good category. It's not so much a fantasy book as just a great adventure story. The author does a nice job setting the characters and mood quickly. It's a great story about a young noblewoman trying to find her way in a world of magic, thievery and dragons. The plot moves quickly and you ...

Christopher Bullfrog Catcher
This book, written by a young man eager to explore his world and share his findings with others, took me back to days of my own childhood when playing in a cool, clear creek brought a smile to my face. While the author of this book does have learning challenges, it certainly does not show in this brilliant story of days spent catching bullfrogs. He not only catches bullfrogs, he teaches any ...

Hold on to your light saber!
Great action/adventure story with a good dose of reality! Think of a strong dose of Tom Clancy, mixed with Cussler and maybe some James Rollins thrown in. Lots of twists, turns, heros, heroines, betrayal, friendship, love and stunning techology. Damien has infused the story with a host of political, geographical and social details that makes North Korea come alive. He has clearly done his ...

This is a must read!
After reading the reviews of Amazon.com, I decided to read this book as part of an English assignment. I had a hard time putting this book down. If you like old-fashioned writing, this book is certainly one you should read! The blurb on the jacket cover isn't very appealing, but the book is much better than the editors make it sound. I recommend this book to anyone over the age of twelve ...

ANGEL CATCHER FOR KIDS: A JOURNAL TO HELP YOU REMEMBER THE PERSON WHO DIED
This book is a vital resource for children aged 5-10years old. Often when there is a loss in the family, the children are usually the last persons we look to share how they are feeling about the loss. As adults we try to shelter them and not "upset" them by whispering or not talking about the loved one who died. This confuses children as they often wonder why everyone is acting so different ...
