Last Christmas: The Private Prequel (Private)

Last Christmas.
Last Christmas is definitely in depth and intense. Last Christmas does not only cross over the borderlines of irony, foreshadowing, and the direct usage of murder and insanity, but it also cites psychological issues with those given enough power and stress. This book is a must read for any Private fan. Although it is disappointing without Reed, it's in depth intensity makes up for the ...

A "must have" book for novice Private Investigators
I have finished reading this book, and here are my findings: The book is very easy to read. In some portions, it is almost a page turner, and you could forget you're reading an instruction text. The information is presented clear and accurate, with enough personal stories to put the use of the techniques into context without becoming too "wordy" or redundant. The book does not extensively ...

not all we thought
President Kennedy was not all we thought at the time. We reverd him, his family life and all that he did. This is an eye opening book and as such, necessary reading for the times we lived through with rose colored glasses.

Howard Stern???
First off, I hate his show, I loved this book and the movie. Private Parts is hilarious, compelling and truthful. I've never been a huge Howard fan, I saw this book and for some reason started reading. The book is his story, how he got where he is now and where it all started. If you love Howard Stern, you'll love his book, if you arent a fan, its still great reading.

Very funny look at history and its players
This book takes a look at some very interesting historical oddities that are not usually covered in a textbook or history book. The main story is about Napoleon and his private parts. Supposedly after he died at St. Helena the doctor doing the autopsy was not very happy with him and took his revenge. What did the doctor do? He cut off the Emperors penis. Over the years it has shrunk and gone ...

Good Book
All I have to say about this book is that I read every word. It's wonderfully written. The only author whose every word I read is James Lee Burke. Usually these British books aren't as good to me as the TV series, but this one was wonderful, great atmosphere and characterization.

Mother Angela Private nd Pithy Lessons From Scripture
Mother Angelica is her usual straight to the point commentator on the scripture. She makes it fun learning about scripture and brings it down to a practicable level. This is a book that makes learning about scripture fun, brings a fresh point of few to scripture, and gives you valuable information about interpretation of scripture.

The girls who have the ability to purchase anything their heart desires; the guys who can whisk their friends off to a luxurious destination aboard their parents private jet at the drop of a hat. But Reed Brennan has managed to insert herself into this very privileged and PRIVATE world. The one thing she ...

A fascinating read, and not just for Hitler specialists
How better to understand the mind of a significant historical personality than through his private library! Ryback literally happened upon a large portion of Hitler's library while doing research at the Library of Congress. This is a well written and fascinating approach to the mind that unleashed fascism in what was arguably the most civilized country in the world at the time. Indeed, "Hitler's ...

A Truly Stellar Work!
This is a book I wish I had when I was a child. The mother and child featured in this story are beautifully illustrated and I like the intelligent conversations they have about improper touching, whether or not it is sexual. The book respects readers' intelligence by using the proper terminology for genitalia and the generic term "bottom" to mean the buttocks. I like that. Too many works ...

A Classic with tremendous power for today
I had read snippits from "A Diary of Private Prayer" by John Baillie for several years and finally decided to get this little book which was first published in 1937. I was amazed at his deep prayer disciplines for morning and evening prayers for each day of the month. They are written with such depth and honesty that I was drawn into them. It is also good to note that this work comes ...

item arrived on time and in expected condition, good seller. Diana Gabaldon's books, all of them, are excellent, you just can't put them down once you get about a third of the way into the first one you will go zooming through the rest of them like lightning.

I can see why so many people love this book...
I have heard people refer to Gordon MacDonald's "Ordering Your Private World" for years, and I finally got around to reading it. I can see why it has been so influential, as it is extremely well-written. Though this book might be most helpful to pastors, since MacDonald writes from that perspective and experience, I think that he has much wisdom to share with any Christians or even ...

Excellent Book for Kids in Today's World
My daughter is 3 years old and when we read it, she gets to shout out "Those are my private parts!" She may be a little young for this, but I want to empower her as early as possible. I even heard her sing-songing around the house the other day "Those are my private parts, Those are my private parts." The statistics in the book are eye opening and so very sad. If you think that it is ...
