The more times you read the book the more you get from it. It really makes you think differently about things and I love that about a book. The descriptions are well detailed so you can paint an amazing picture. (0 more)
There are some racism remarks which I'm guessing at the time was written wasn't "a big deal" but it makes for uncomfortable reading. Also in the follow on books there are a few inconsistencies, but if you can over look doesn't effect the story too much. (0 more)
A thinking book!

Good to start with for a Y A Book (0 more)
Bad as a series (0 more)
When I first saw this Vampire Y A book I thought it would become a good series to collect as its about a group of kids who have been marked to become Vampires and sent to The House Of Night Vampire School. In the first book we learn about Zoey who has just become a student at the Vampire school. As the series goes on the books get boring. Not one of the best buys in Young Adult fiction.

This is a quick read about teens in Hollywood - but not all is as it seems. The main characters are from different walks of life and are all involved in this club promotion contest for very different reasons. They don't expect to make friends or even like each other, but unforseen circumstances bring them together for better or worse. Read the book to find out what happens! Recommended to young adult/teen readers that like contemporary books about teens that involve drama, relationships, a bit of mystery and glamour.

I love this book. I love trains just as much as books. I enjoyed the charthers in the book. It about a family that has to make adjustment on the fly. I quite enjoyable. I love how this is a Classic. I did not know this book was out there to read while I was growing up. The Children name are Bobby, Phil and Paul.

If you want to know mare about it what happens I would suggest picking it up. Something happens that causes their father to go away.

I found this podcast a few weeks ago and started listening right away. They are reviewing Prisoner of Azkaban right now and I really enjoy hearing their insight into parts of the novel that I didn't really think about before. It's fun to listen to them discuss a story that I honestly expected to know cover to cover. They pick up on things that may have been missed, things that make sense with the context of the later books to reflect on. I like getting all the different opinions offered about characters, scenes, etc.

Nancy Duff, in the context of Christian faith, raises a number of questions for believers to take into account regarding death and making informed end-of-life decisions.

I found this book very helpful in raising questions based on faith as opposed to other books on the subject that have been more medical based.

Certainly a book worth reading and contemplating even if you yourself are not actively concerned about your own end of life. It helps the reader see other considerations that someone facing the end of life will be thinking about.
