I would say about 2 to 3 books a week sometimes and they are all Christian. So suffice it to say that I am not easily impressed and very often I think that what I have read is a real "waste of paper". This book is not one of those. McNeal writes without compromise. Don't be fooled by the cover. This is not one of those "get big and better" books on the church. This is a very ...             Whore (Triple Crown Publications Presents)142 reviews Tanika Lynch Triple Crown Publications, 2006 Great book, bad cover I have to admit the book was good but the cover must go. I saw it plently of times but becasue of the cover looked the other way, I finally read it and was impressed. Authors remeber the cover is almost as important as the reading, think about it.             Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree (Weekly Reader Children's Book Club Presents)38 reviews Robert E. Barry McGraw-Hill, 1963 Charming, endearing, and timeless! This has always been my favorite Christmas Book (just edging out "A Charlie Brown Christmas" by a glowing-red nose!). I'm happy to say that I own an original first printing of both books, but it's "Willowby" that I continue to purchase, year after year, for my friends and their children. The charm of this story lies in the "one person's discards are another person's treasures" category. The ...             Winnie the Pooh Boxed Set: BBC (BBC Radio Presents)33 reviews A.A.

Styles Triple Crown Publications, 2007 A good book with a good message I have never read any books by this author but this will definitely not be my last. Unlike most urban books this book had a very important messag about friendships, discrimination, trust, loyalty etc. A very fast paced book you wil not be disappointed.             Medical Apartheid: The Dark History of Medical Experimentation on Black Americans from Colonial Times to the ...38 reviews Harriet A. Washington Harlem Moon, 2008 It's always useful to be reminded... Although I would like to think that I couldn't be tempted (as a medical researcher) to break the rules and to impair human dignity, it was a very disturbing eye-opener to read this book! It made me remember a few events in my medical education when I saw my teachers cross the line, not as dramatically as most of what Washington portrays, but nevertheless the start of the slippery slope, and I ...             Omnibus Press Presents the Story of Korn34 reviews Doug Small Omnibus Press, 2000 KoRn is # 1! ! !

Tharps Diane Pub Co, 2006 A Must-Read for Black Women Everywhere I've recently made the decision to go natural and as I did, I pondered, "Why do I have to 'decide' to be the way I naturally am?" It was then that I realized how unfortunate it was that black women, more than half, find their "naturalness" to be unattractive. I myself have gone through hair extensions, braids, and the dreaded relaxer that has damaged my hair and scalp for years. Now I wonder ...             Essays and Aphorisms (The Penguin Classics)26 reviews Arthur Schopenhauer Penguin Classics, 1973 with persistance and arrogance, brain and bile ... Schopenhauer's father committed suicide. Son Arthur had been very devoted to his father Heinrich Floris. The high-sensitive son could not deal with the fact, that his mother Johanna had preferred to talk with Goethe in her Weimar Literary Salon instead of helping her husband, getting more and more depressed as a salesman in Hamburg. A typical, later on dialogue between mother (at that time a ...             Hidden Things: Where the Past Meets the Present--Head On25 reviews Andrea Boeshaar Barbour Publishing, Incorporated, 2003 ...a work in the best Boeshaar tradition...

Rubin Wachtel & Martin, 2007 Total Money Makeover or Beyond Paycheck to Paycheck? Read this first! Having read both Dave Ramsey's "Total Money Makeover" and this book, I must highly recommend "Beyond Paycheck to Paycheck" to you.

Still love it. I have my hardback on my shelf, in it's pinkness, no dust jacket. Magical. The author, Carol R. Brink, also wrote "Baby Island," another favorite.

In this work the hughe, great German philosopher and psychologist (honour to whom it deserves!) confronts us with a rather fleet-footed, almost "dancing" way of writing about his eternal themes that never ever have left his thoughts, his way of thinking and his brilliant pen. HERE is ...             Will Shortz Presents The Little Black Book of Sudoku: 400 Puzzles (Will Shortz Presents...)29 reviews St. Martin's Griffin, 2006 Little Black Sudoku The book is divided into ability sections.
