It is a mere 184 pages long, but the edition of the book I read is packed by commentary. I skipped this commentary because I wasn't particularly interested in literary or social analysis. I just wanted to experience the book for itself and the story it told. Reading it this way, I actually "felt" the book in the way the author intended. And, ...             Breath, Eyes, Memory (Oprah's Book Club)213 reviews Edwidge Danticat Vintage, 1998 Haitian horror story "Breath, Eyes, Memory" is the story of a young Haitian girl, Sophie, whose mother travels to New York when her daughter is very young, leaving Sophie in the care of her Tante Atie.

Livermore Baker Books, 2006 Surprisingly good! As a doctor who goes on short-term mission trips on a regular basis, I felt I ought to read this book. I must admit that the title and the cover had me expecting a dry read. Instead, I found this little book to be extremely pertinent. In fact, it has affected my outlook on much more than the actual mission trips. I'm afraid this book will have limited readership, which is a shame. I would ...             The Eyes of the Dragon337 reviews Stephen King Signet, 1987 My favorite King Book Ok, so I am a huge Stephen King fan, and I do like most of his books, but there are a few I absolutely loathe. When I first read this book, I had no idea what to expect, and I ended up getting hooked to the story, and read it all the way through in one sitting, which is extremely unusual for me; I've only been able to do that with this and the 1st Harry Potter book. Anyway, this is a fairy ...             Green Eyes and Black Rifles: Warriors Guide to the Combat Carbine8 reviews Ret. SGM Kyle E.

My first real foray into Epic Fantasy (apart from Lord of The Rings), and it remains by far my favorite. The world that Robert Jordan has created is unparalleled. Most fantasy book draw from the same pool of creatures: Elves, Dwarfs, Trolls etc. You won't find these (or their facsimiles) in Jordan's books. Rather there are Trollocs, Shades, Ogiers etc. And instead of wizards and ...              search for books asperger, benedict, carbine, children, christians, composition, cultural, diagnosis, digital, disease, eastern, emergency, gospels, intelligence, international, introduction, literature, missions, mystery, photographer, practices, revised, serving, short-term, survivors, through, treatment, vintage, warriors, watching books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
