A very useful guide
Organized, clear, easy to read, good sense of humor; this is really a "How-to guide". Like Switzerland, most part of the book is oriented to those who intend to live in German area, but French and Italian are well indicated also. Suggestion: appendix as a small detachable book Congratulations to Davis

A suprising and heart-warming find!
I didn't expect to buy this book. I hadn't heard about it. I wasn't even familiar with the author. But after just a quick scan of the first chapter, I was fully engrossed in the story of Christopher Hogwood. I couldn't put it down. The author skillfully integrates personal details of her own life into the story which no good animal story would be without. It is listed as a "biography, ...

you've got to read this
This is a great book for the lover of politics. It makes you realize just how evil the Republicans truly can be (I'm an independent). He tells tales of dirty politics and even their own infighting. Fascinating reading.

Her mom, her friends, her education, her home - Nicole no ...

A fun read...looking forward to the next book in series..
This is a really fun mystery. The characters are unique, and the coziness of the small town adds to the flavor of the book.

Suzanne Brockmann
Ballantine Books

Outstanding!!
Suzanne Brockmann has once again woven a beautiful story of determination and committment to the "cause". I love how the Seal Team 16 and the Troubleshooters Incorporated work so well together. Once you begin reading the carefully laid out story, Ms. Brockmann never fails to keep you in suspence from beginning to end. Guess who falls in love this time? Purchase this book. You will not be ...

Our Town: A Play in Three Acts (Perennial Classics)

Thornton Wilder
Harper Perennial Modern Classics
, 2003
The Face of Eternity and the Mind of God
By most accounts Thornton Wilder (1897-1975) considered himself a teacher rather than a writer--a curious situation given than he won numerous literary awards, including three Pulitzers. Among these prize-winners was OUR TOWN, first staged in 1938. It is generally considered to be the single most famous play written by an American author, and Samuel French Inc., which holds the amateur ...

Bret Easton Ellis

Perfectly Written
After reading "Less Than Zero" I was excited to give another Bret Easton Ellis novel a try, and this turned out to be one of those books I never wanted to end. Every page was full of something interesting and thought provoking and what at times seemed shocking also seemed like the harsh, honest truth. And this has become one of my favorite novels that I know I'll read over and over again. ...

Delorme

, 2002
excellent, extremely detailed map of local roads
This atlas is fabulous for driving around the back roads of New Hampshire. It has the names and route numbers of every single road in the entire state, even dirt roads, even indicates which is which. It is not very helpful for roads in cities or large towns, showing only the main ones. But in addition to that it lists canoe trips, state parks, every single private campground in the state, ...

Great Buy
I'm usually concerned about purchasing items on line, especially books. I can honestly say that this experience was worth it. I would recommend this seller to anyone interested in purchasing good quality books at extremely reasonable prices. Buy with confidence, I did!
Ethics (Penguin Classics)

Benedictus de Spinoza
Penguin Classics

The best translation of the "Ethics" in the english language
If you ever heard of Spinoza, you have probably heard also of his "Ethics". This book is simply Spinoza's finest and most valuable book. One could say many things about the "Ethics", but they would be unnecessary: if you want to know about the book, buy a guide or read a compendium on the history of philosophy. But this is the actual text; here there is no talking about the book, only the ...
The Hotel New Hampshire (Ballantine Reader's Circle)

John Irving
Ballantine Books
, 1997
Favorite Irving -- quite possibly favorite novel
I love this book. I've read about 1/2 of Irving's novels and this is my favorite, though I haven't been disappointed by any. This book is entertaining, compelling, devastating... I could go on and on. He mercilessly kills off characters the reader has developed a fondness for, but somehow keeps us reading. Irving writes with an often dry sense of humor and treads some odd line between realism ...

Proof that our Father cares for each of us is in this story.
Sarah's story was the tool we used to show our family how God is real and cares for each of us. Although the recommmended age is 7-9 we read a chapter to the whole family for part of our Bible story. Even my husband was captivated. We had a hard time closing the book after each chapter. Young readers can read with confidence, and little listeners are pulled into the wonderful dialogue and ...

Good for multi-state travel...
This book was great for helping us get around the interstates and highways. It doesn't have much in the way of smaller town road maps making getting around in small New England towns a bit more cumbersome. But I do recommend the book for anyone planning a trip to multiple New England states.

PEER REVIEW
Dear peer, The first thing that you need to know about Black Ice is the author which is Lorene Gary. I liked this book because I learned that you can make mistakes of doing drugs, but you can quit just in time to have a better future. This book is about a girl named Libby; she went to a boarding school at St. Paul's High School. She once went ...
