My daughter has borrowed my copy of this book (purchased when it first was published) more times than I can count. She loves the butter tart recipe best of all. Being able to purchase this book from Amazon meant that I can now tell her to keep the original - baking stains and all!             Phantom : The Story of His Life1 review Susan Kay Random House of Canada, Limited, 1990 Absolutly Gripping! This book follows the life of the notorious Phantom of the Opera from the time of his birth to his death. You get a real sense of the shaping of the man behind the mask and the absolute joys and horrors he endured. You live and breathe the time the book was written in. A stunning novel, I've read it several times! I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good historical read.             True History of the Kelly Gang107 reviews Peter Carey Random House of Canada, Limited, 2001 Folk heroism Peter Carey's True History of the Kelly Gang is recorded by Gianfranco Negroponte on Recorded Books. The story and reading captivate the listener. The Irish diaspora to Australia is reflected in the Australian English and the nineteenth-century setting. Kelly's character is intelligent, loyal, humanitarian, and gullible. The narrator is Kelly addressing his autobiography to his daughter. His folk ...             Sword of Honour5 reviews Alexander Kent Random House of Canada, Limited, 1999 Sword of Honor I read this book in a U.K. print as it is not yet in the States and I found it to be one of the better efforts of Mr Kent ne Reeman. The historical events of Napoleon's escape from Elba and the battles that ensued give this book the drama and flaver that I have come to love in the previous 22 books in this line. I could not put it down, and read it straight through. I have over the years ...             Living the G. I. Diet : Delicious Recipes and Real-Life Strategies to Lose Weight and Keep It Off40 reviews Rick; Richards, Emily Gallop Random House of Canada, Limited, 2003 Easy to follow and delicious meals This is the second book in the G.I. Diet series from Rick Gallop, and his best in my opinion. The guts of the first book is in here, along with over 100 green light recipes. The beauty of this diet is the ease in which things are broken down. There are no calories to count, and it couldn't be any more simple that eating foods from the green light column. It has portion sizes for things that ...             Red Dog23 reviews Louis De Bernieres Random House of Canada, Limited, 2003 out of print This is one of the sweetest books about a dog that I've ever read. It is difficult to find in bookstores so I was very happy to find it on Amazon.com.             Shake Hands with the Devil : The Failure of Humanity in Rwanda78 reviews Romeo Dallaire Random House of Canada, Limited, 2004 Great book This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. I think Dallaire's writing style is under-rated and perhaps un-appreciated. The bulk of the account of his time in Rwanda is written in a documentary, almost overly-efficient style. But I think this adds to the credibilty of a story that is almost beyond belief. The style gives the impression of a very reluctant unwilling story teller who ...             Coming Through Slaughter17 reviews Michael Ondaatje Random House of Canada, Limited, 1998 Coming Through Slaughter: Ondaatje's musical novel I originally read this book as part of a fiction workshop. Unlike some other class-assigned readings, this book became a treasured part of my personal collection. Its form is rather unconventional -- it's rather like reading a novel of poetry. Admittedly, it can be hard to "get into," but I found that the more I read in one sitting, the greater impact Ondaatje's prose had on me. For me, ...             Black Rubber Dress25 reviews Lauren Henderson Random House of Canada, Limited, 1998 Love "Sex & the City"? Meet the 'other' Sam Jones "Black Rubber Dress" is the 2nd title in the Sam Jones series, but it is the first that was available to American readers. Lauren Henderson's Samantha Jones has a lot in common with her namesake from the hit American TV show "Sex & the City"--she's sassy & brash; independent, fearless and armed with a supreme self-confidence that makes her a real man-magnet. Her very short skirts also help. ...             Big Book of Nonsense Colin West Random House of Canada, Limited, 2001             Elmer Again David McKee Random House of Canada, Limited, 1993             Gorilla Adventure1 review Willard Price Random House of Canada, Limited, 1993 Gorillas Are Great! In this great book the two brothers Hal & Roger Hunt, help an injured Gorilla. These books have a lot of true facts -- even though some of the rest is exciting fiction. Willard Price has done a very nice job with this series             In a Gilded Cage: From Heiress to Duchess Marian Fowler Random House of Canada, Limited, 1994             The Trouble with Islam : A Wake-Up Call for Honesty and Change40 reviews Irshad Manji Random House of Canada, Limited, 2003 A First Person Account of Her Islamic Belief System This young woman has written an up front, personal view of her Islamic belief system. This book is a must for those who are following the growth of Islam, its positive and negative sides. In her world of Islam there can be many problems when a woman steps out of the crowd to give first her story of her faith, and secondly to relate her pros and cons as to the Islamic belief system. The book is a ...             Home for Dinner : Fresh Taste, Quick Techniques, Easy Cooking2 reviews Lucy Waverman Random House of Canada, Limited, 2002 Another Waverman classic! I'm proud to say that I own all of Lucy Waverman's cookbooks. Home for Dinner is her newest cookbook and I think, one of her best. The recipies are delicious and remarkably easy to make. They all seem suited to a `sit-down' dinner, but there are some that would be terrific for a buffet. Home for Dinner proves that Lucy is the best!             The God of Small Things888 reviews Arundhati Roy Random House of Canada, Limited, 1998 Next read? The God of Small Things is one of my all time favorite books even though I wouldn't expect to be drawn to this storyline. It is beautifully written and oozes atmosphere, compared to other Booker Prize winners it stands tall, perhaps even above all the rest. So what can you possibly read to follow this masterpiece? I can't recommend a similar story that comes close but if like me, the ...             Affair with the Moon David Gilmour Random House of Canada, Limited, 1993              search for books adventure, canadian, change, coming, cookbook, cooking, delicious, dinner, duchess, failure, gilded, gorilla, heiress, history, honesty, humanity, mealtime, nonsense, phantom, real-life, recipes, rubber, slaughter, solutions, strategies, techniques, through, tonight, trouble, wake-up books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
