This book is extraordinary! My six year old grand-daughter is thoroughly intrigued by it and has had it by her side for the past two days, and, yes, she can read most of it herself.

Don't Start the Revolution Without Me!: From the Minnesota Governor's Mansion to the Baja Outback: Reflections and Revisionings by Jesse Ventura
Don't Start the Revolution Without Me!: From the Minnesota Governor's Mansion to the Baja Outback: Reflections and Revisionings

What an eye-opener to see what many of us had considered cover-ups by the government put in print by Jesse Ventura. It was very difficult for me to put this book down each night. I was thoroughly engrossed from beginning to end. This is a man that would make an excellent President, and, I'm sure, after reading the book many people would agree. Too bad most politicians aren't like him.

Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker by Debbie Stoller
Stitch 'n Bitch Crochet: The Happy Hooker

readwithbarb, August 7, 2008

Although the crochet info and pictures are wonderful the patterns contain many, many errors. Going online I found some corrections, but the corrections for the Ladylike Lace Gloves were more confusing than the pattern in the book which is unclear.

The designers need to work out the pattern from the manuscript given the printer to see if it is correct. It is so disappointing to start a project and find out that you have to rip it out.

A Crazy Little Thing Called Death (Blackbird Sisters Mysteries) by Nancy Martin

This is the first book I've read by Nancy Martin. Nancy is such a descriptive writer that at every step of this mystery I felt I was right there. I could picture everyone and felt as though I was right in the midst of the story. Now I'm ready to read all the other Blackbird Sisters Mysteries.
