books about: inexpensive     books:       Message in a Bottle873 reviews Nicholas Sparks Vision, 1999 AGONY (Contains spoilers) I sobbed with this book, enough to actually throw it across the bed. I felt her pain in the end, and it was all so terrible wrong. I hate the ending with a passion. To hell with the dramatic effect his death brought on... I'd rather be stuck in my tiny bubble of unrealistic fantasies than read that ending thoroughly. It was just a punch in the chest when I read the last ...             The Great Gatsby1117 reviews F. Scott Fitzgerald Scribner, 1999 Fantastic! One of my Favorite Books! Aside from making a powerful statement about the so called "American Dream," this novel is brilliantly written. Mr. Fitzgerald's mastery of the English language is evident in his genius sentence structure and meticulous word choice. One cannot help but stop reading to simply marvel at some of his phrasing. I highly recommend Gatsby to anyone out for great read.             Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong410 reviews James W. Loewen Touchstone, 1996 Making History Interesting I want to focus on one particular aspect of this wonderful book; the description of the typical high school history textbooks. Looking back at the texts I realize that for an adult to even want to continue reading non-fiction after having to go through the bland, washed out, noncommital non narrative that is American high school history is a wonder in itself. He did a pretty good job of ...             Lost-Wax Casting: Old, New, and Inexpensive Methods4 reviews Fred R.

When I read this as part of a college class, we learned that it was originally some 600 pages long. Then the author decided to cut it down to the absolute bare bones - and it worked brilliantly. Too much writing could cushion the devastation - getting bogged down in details could allow a reader to become jaded. However, such stark ...             Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)2598 reviews J.K. Rowling Scholastic, 1999 Fabulous narration My family has enjoyed listening to the Harry Potter audio books for several years. Jim Dale's readings include a host of characters with remarkably distinctive voices that carry over from the first book, the Sorcerer's Stone, to the last. He reads with fabulous energy and makes these great stories come to life like nothing I've ever heard before. The Prisoner of Azkaban is no exception. ...             The Catcher in the Rye2754 reviews J.D. Salinger Little, Brown and Company, 1991 my favorite book ever Holden Caufield is possibly my favorite fictional character. Or should I say, he's the one I could most relate to. If you've ever been depressed and lonely, you can relate to Holden. If you're cynical, you can relate to Holden. Some would call him a bitter adolescent. Some would say he sees the world as it is. Whether or not you like this book will depend on your outlook on life, or at ...             Give Me Liberty!: An American History, Volume 1 Eric Foner W. W.

Turner Index Legalis Pub., 1996 Well written and easily read This book is an excellent and quick read- I finished it in one day. Although not directly suited to my purpose, the book contains great advice on finding a small acreage (4-12) property in the country.
