Waterlilies #01: Alice at Heart by Deborah Smith
i8pixistix, October 13, 2008
When I first opened this book I was skeptical but found, overall, I enjoyed it. And while I love a book with a lot of detail so my mind can really see - the excessive descriptions in Alice at Heart were a tad overbearing. It's a lovely story and has good flow (no pun intended). I'd be curious to read more in the series when they come out. Mostly just good, light reading.The Confession of Fitzwilliam Darcy by Mary Street
i8pixistix, August 5, 2008
Emulating Jane Austen in the best possible way, we are treated to the most intimate, insightful and revealing thoughts of Mr. Darcy. In "The Confession of Fitzwilliam Darcy" Ms. Street has written a wonderful companion and counterpoint.It's a Long Road to a Tomato: Tales of an Organic Farmer Who Quit the Big City for the (Not So) Simple Life by Keith Stewart
i8pixistix, January 29, 2008
This book is incredible. It's an eye-opening read in the form of short stories and vignettes about how our food gets to our tables from the perspective of a former corporate slave turned small, organic farmer. You won't think the same way about your milk or produce again, as well as the people working day in & day out to get it there.(1 of 2 readers found this comment helpful)
Can't You Get Along with Anyone?: A Writer's Memoir and a Tale of a Lost Surfer's Paradise by Allan Weisbecker
i8pixistix, November 27, 2007
CYGAWA will absorb and consume you. It requires your undivided attention. As the image of the author and his forehead suggests, the book bleeds passion, grief, rage, paranoia, agitation, ador. You embark on the full emotional journey as Weisbecker describes his experiences of what it takes to find and maintain paradise; and what happens when betrayal tries to force you to abandon your heart and soul. It begs the question, "How much can one person stand?"(4 of 8 readers found this comment helpful)

This little book was such a fast read that I was surprised at how quickly I was done with it. I spent a good portion of the time laughing out loud at the self-effacing, former Evangelical main character Alison. It gives some great, hilarious social commentary (religion, sex, love) without sounding preachy or over the top. A great summer read for sure.(9 of 17 readers found this comment helpful)
