While I don't think It's the best book out the series so far, I do believe that it had to be written and defently adds to the plot and overall story. Bella is able to get back on her feet, which I think girl's need to know that possible, and live her life. ...             The Host: A Novel491 reviews Stephenie Meyer Little, Brown and Company, 2008 An Instant Classic I absloutley loved this book. I have read the Twlight Saga and I love that also but this book was exciting and so romantic. I fell in love with Wanderer and Melanie and I cried for their charaters because the love story was so romantic. I highly recommend this book to all readers.             Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time1166 reviews Greg Mortenson, David Oliver Relin Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007 Highly Recommend As a mother of two, with no time to spare, I found the time to read this book and finish it! It was well worth it! Greg Mortenson would have made Mother Teresa proud! He is an inspiration. The world needs more people like Greg Mortenson and Jean Hoerni! What a great team of peace.             Fleeced: How Barack Obama, Media Mockery of Terrorist Threats, Liberals Who Want to Kill Talk Radio, the ...122 reviews Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann Harper, 2008 More liberal deceit Nice read. Americans are losing their freedoms because of liberal intolerence. A must read for true patriots.             Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4)1414 reviews Stephenie Meyer Little, Brown Young Readers, 2008 Bitten by Breaking Dawn I am an avid Twilight fan and I was at the book release for Breaking Dawn. This book lived up to my expectation. I loved it and the conclusion make me smile and tear. Parts of the book made me gasp, cry, and laugh diservedly so. What a great book...             Eclipse (The Twilight Saga, Book 3)835 reviews Stephenie Meyer Little, Brown Young Readers, 2007 Riviting What can I say Stephenie Meyer never disapoints. Although I wish that she would just hit the sexy scenes but I understand that it is rated for teens. I am still torn between Jacob and Edward.             Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1)1943 reviews Stephenie Meyer Little, Brown Young Readers, 2006 Better than I ever expected I'm not the average Stephenie Meyer reader. I'm a 36 year old mother of two. I stumbled across an interview of her and was intrigued. And then I remembered that several of my adult friends had tentatively recommended these books to me in the last year. I am an English major, with a strong penchant for the classics. So yes, I tend to be a bit of a literary snob. Not wanting to "waste" my ...             Brisingr (Inheritance, Book 3) Christopher Paolini Knopf Books for Young Readers, 2008 OATHS SWORN . . . loyalties tested . . . forces collide. Following the colossal battle against the Empire’s warriors on the Burning Plains, Eragon and his dragon, Saphira, have narrowly escaped with their lives. Still there is more at hand for the Rider and his dragon, as Eragon finds himself bound by a tangle of promises he may not be able to keep. First is Eragon’s oath to his cousin Roran: to help rescue Roran’s beloved, ...             The Obama Nation76 reviews Jerome R Corsi Threshold Editions, 2008 What the mainstream media won't tell you about a potential president. This book contrasts nicely with the fawning media attention he's been receiving. We should thoroughly scrutinize every candidate for president. regardless of his or her delicate sensibilities.             Watchmen460 reviews Alan Moore DC Comics, 1995 Best of the Best This was the first comic I have ever read, and has left me wanting to read more. Great writting as well as artwork. If your a comic book fan this is a must read.             My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey75 reviews Jill Bolte Taylor Viking Adult, 2008 A must read for Medical Professionals & Caregives!! My Stroke of Insight gives the reader an informative view of stroke victims. This should be mandatory reading for all Medical personnel. I'm amazed at Jill's journey & perspective. You'll find yourself realizing how Powerful our brain really is!!             The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate23 reviews David Freddoso Regnery Publishing, 2008 "Inflated" Ego Aaah, here we go again. The move.on lefties marshalled to wage book review wars and manipulate the ratings as a function of their pointless existence on this planet. Bravo. I'm sure it is entirely believable this book is so terrible it deserves a 1 by a flood of new reviewers, or that a fan of Obama would actually read it. But slander and attacks are what you do best - so who am I to ...             The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder156 reviews Vincent Bugliosi Vanguard Press, 2008 The book demonstrates courage Bugliosi has a precise and orderly mind. He gives relentless example after example of intentional lies, obstruction, and hiding that has resulted in so many deaths. This book is a good reminder of how numb we have become listening to our politicians sidestep issues, lie, and cheat, with full impunity and immunity, because putting Bush's Iraq was history in a legal framework with logic and ...             The Post-American World103 reviews Fareed Zakaria W. W. Norton, 2008 Refreshingly Honest Compared to Khanna's Cheap Fraud Well, at least Zakaria is not a complete fraud, as compared to Parag Khanna, whose book The Second World is astonishingly, breathtakingly dishonest. Robert Kaplan describes this book as "a savvy, streetwise primer on dozens of individual countries that adds up to a coherent theory of global politics." (Which shows just how ignorant of much of Eurasia Kaplan truly is.) Having been generously ...             The Time Paradox (Artemis Fowl, Book 6)26 reviews Eoin Colfer Hyperion Books for Children, 2008 Courtesy of Teens Read Too As an ardent fan of Artemis Fowl from the first book onward, I was more than just a little excited to find out that THE TIME PARADOX was in the works. The previous book in the series, THE LOST COLONY, was one of my favorites, and it opened so many doors that I wanted desperately to see explored. After reading THE TIME PARADOX over the course of a single day, my reactions are mixed, but one ...             Batman: The Dark Knight Returns323 reviews Frank Miller DC Comics, 1997 Chasing the Dragon At this writing there are 321 customer reviews about this book. The overwhelming majority of them rating it with 5 stars. It's very likely this review will never be read, but I just had to have my say. This book is so good it will almost ruin your comic reading life. I guess I was 12 or 13 when I first read this and I've reread it maybe a couple dozen times over the years. I've come to regard ...             Turbulent Sea (Drake Sisters, Book 6)25 reviews Christine Feehan Jove, 2008 Great book -- but not necessarily the best Drake sisters' novel I have been waiting for Joley and Ilya's story since he appeared in the storyline, and it's a satisfying enough story to sate my curiosity. HOWEVER, this didn't feel like a Drake sister's novel, as the other sisters barely even appear in the book, except in phone conversations and small cameos. Their significant others appear more, and are more overbearing than normal. I kept waiting for a ...             The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals438 reviews Michael Pollan Penguin, 2007 The Life of Corn and the Death of American Health The author has four hypotheses about how we Americans may have become such dysfunctional eaters, and about how our food supplies and our diets came to be the way they are. Although interesting, this book was not exactly what I was expecting. I was hoping Pollan would get deeper into how the collusion between the US Food and Drug Administration and Agribusiness have conspired to product the ...             Acheron (Dark-Hunter, Book 12)7 reviews Sherrilyn Kenyon St. Martin's Press, 2008 Loved It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG, I loved this book. Granted the first half (more than half if you want to be technical) was very hard to read. Not because of the Sherri or her writing style (which rocked as usual), but it was so depressing. I knew Ash had a bad life but to have it spelled out like out...WOW. By the time I got to the second part of his book, all I wanted to do was just hug the man...er, God. And the ...             The Secret2207 reviews Rhonda Byrne Atria Books/Beyond Words, 2006 very good The Secret is intriguing and gives anyone with need of money, hope or health, a lot of hope. It is hard to believe, however, that one can get whatever one wants just by thinking about it or asking for it.              search for books acheron, american, breaking, brisingr, candidate, companies, congress, dark-hunter, do-nothing, favorite, foreign, governments, history, inheritance, liberals, lobbyists, omnivore, personal, post-american, prosecution, returns, scamming, scientist, terrorist, turbulent, twilight, unexamined, unlikely, washington, watchmen books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
