Gary Vaynerchuk
Angela Hunter
, February 16, 2018
Crushing It! is a follow up to Gary Vaynerchuk's Crush It, but reads as a stand alone book. Once again, Gary brings his knowledge and passion on how to help the ordinary, every day person become an entrepreneur by following their own passions. Gary walks you through each major social media platform to show how even the average person can become wildly successful just by living their lives, and doing every day things. This book really lays it all out, so there is no guess work as to how to create your own business, and your own social media following. With real-life examples of success stories, this book really makes living your dreams seem possible even for people without the financial background, large media following or fancy degrees.

Fifty Shades Darker
by
E. L. James
Angela Hunter
, August 05, 2012
I found the second book of the Fifty Shades Trilogy to be far superior to the first. Still a bit wordy and repetitive, the writing and story improved from the first book. Still captivating.

by

Angela Hunter
, August 05, 2012
This documentary has amazing footage going back to George and a wonderful recap and history of one of the most famous families. I do wish more time was given to the Windsors of the last decade or so, but otherwise, a wonderful and educational film.

Fifty Shades of Grey
by
E. L. James
Angela Hunter
, August 05, 2012
I gave in to the hype and read the first book of the 50 Shades Trilogy: Fifty Shades of Grey. The writing style is quite obvious as a book that was at one time, self published. Wordy and repetitive at times, I still found the book captivating. I couldn't help but turn the page to find out what could possibly happen next. Overall, a good read.

Nobodys Baby But Mine
by
Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Angela Hunter
, February 11, 2012
As a fan of Susan Elizabeth Phillips, I was slightly disappointed in this book. The characters, especially in the beginning, were stereotyped and not very sympathetic or relatable. As the story continued, my interest in the characters grew somewhat. Overall, this is a decent book and worth the read if you are a fan of the author's.
