The websites are in general up to date. There is a lot to see in Thailand so this book covers a lot of the popular areas.             Rescuing Sprite: A Dog Lover's Story of Joy and Anguish332 reviews Mark R. Levin Pocket Books, 2007 Excellent book I read this book in one sitting and could not put it down. Of course dog lovers (like me) will love this book, however, I also gave it to my wife to read (who is not a dog lover) to give her insight on why I am so emotionally attached to my dogs. I think Levine is an excellent writer (even though I disagree with EVERY aspect of his politics) and I would highly recommend this book. I think this ...             Cockatiels at Seven (Meg Langslow Mysteries)5 reviews Donna Andrews St. Martin's Minotaur, 2008 zany amusing amateur sleuth Recently married to Michael, Meg Langslow makes her Dad and Grandpa swear her baby sitting of their reptiles is short and temporary as she fears she will soon be bailing them and Dr. Blake out of some jail.

Great inspirational story.             Mrs. Dalloway153 reviews Virginia Woolf Harvest Books, 1990 Woolf in Her Prime Virginia Woolf (1882 - 1941) was a well known writer, critic, feminist, and publisher. This was her fourth novel. I read her first novel "The Voyage Out" before buying the present book, then skipped her second novel - which is considered to be a flop - then read "Jacob's Room," her third, then "Mrs. Dalloway," her fourth, and then "To The Lighthouse." "The Voyage Out" is simple and ...             The Glass Castle: A Memoir1078 reviews Jeannette Walls Scribner, 2006 a book of hope A deeply moving, unforgettable memoir of a truly hard-scrabble life. What I admire most about this book is that Jeannette Walls never paints her family as victims. Nor does she portray her unbearably narcissistic parents as evil (even though it would certainly be easy to do so--her drunken father, her childlike mother. Oh, how I was enraged in the scene where the mother hides the candy bar she's ...             A Field Guide to the Birds of Eastern and Central North America55 reviews Houghton Mifflin, 2002 extremely helpful for the new birder I have been watching the birds play around in my back yard all my life, but I am brand new at identifying them. It is much more challenging than I expected; I had no idea how many species there are or how complex their markings and other identifiers are. I've always considered myself to be a fairly quick learner, but bird watching nearly stumped me ... until I found this field guide. Those little ...             Catch-22823 reviews Joseph Heller Simon & Schuster, 1996 Great great book This book is so good, my weak attempt at a review is not going to do it justice. But I'll try. I knew before I was half-way through that this is going to be a favorite and I plan to re-read it immediately. The writing is so fresh, the character studies so sharp, and the satire so relevant in today's increasingly bureaucratic (corporate) society, no wonder it was so hard for me to find a used ...             What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause (TM): The Breakthrough Book on Natural Hormone Balance26 reviews John R. Lee, Virginia Hopkins Grand Central Publishing, 2004 Amazing book John R. Lee, introduces a new vision in the field of endocrinology. Clears out the pathway of the hormonal and its misconceptions. This book is an alert for doctors who got it all wrong. This is a must if you want to learn about the real deal in hormonal balance.             To the Lighthouse169 reviews Virginia Woolf, Eudora Welty (Introduction) Harvest Books, 1989 An insightful, sensitive reading. The idea of Virginia Woolf's fiction being read aloud effectively has struck me as an impossibility. The very interiority of Woolf's style seemed to suggest that readers hear the narrative voice within themselves. This reading proves me dead wrong. Virginia Leishman's reading--and interpretation--added much to my passion for a novel I have always loved. Readers--and listeners--new to Virigina ...             India (Country Guide)56 reviews Sarina Singh, Joe Bindloss, ... Lonely Planet, 2007 Reliable - as always. I like Lonely Planet Guides - having enhanced holidays in places from Myanmar to Maine using them. The LP India is particularly useful for independent travellers.             Shifter15 reviews Angela Knight, Lora Leigh, ... Berkley, 2008 Shifter "Mad Dog Love" by Angela Knight Rance Conlan cannot believe he let himself get captured by a slave merchant.

Zarifa has to be careful, as she is an ...             Gomorrah32 reviews Roberto Saviano Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2007 What happens in Naples happens everywhere... I was stationed in Naples from '91-'94. I roamed all over as military police. I saw corners of Naples that many Americans living there never even dream of visiting. My knowledge was based in hear-say though and I have now many years later begun to study the city and the country to better understand what I lived there. This book has been a real eye-opener. I suspect it is slightly sensationalistic ...             The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story477 reviews Richard Preston Anchor, 1999 Great Novel This book is incredible and I highly recommend it to anyone, especially if you are a fan of virology, epidemiology, or just a book that you don't want to put down! I found myself unable to stop reading as the beginning really grabs you and pulls you in. It's incredibly interesting and the best part is it is based on true events, which I believe makes it much scarier/better. Overall, I believe ...             The Collectors140 reviews David Baldacci Grand Central Publishing, 2007 Excellent read - couldn't put it down! I bought this book for my husband many months ago, and just picked it up from his shelf to look at as a summer read. After two chapters, I couldn't put it down! Very well written, interesting, entertaining, and I love the cliff-hanger end. My next read will be The Camel Club.             Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel82 reviews Virginia Lee Burton Houghton Mifflin, 1939 Death of a Steam Shovel Mr. Michael Mulligan and his faithful steam shovel, lovingly called Mary Anne, are working class heroes, fighting to retain their independence in the face of corporate technological prowess in the construction industry.
