Good read, informative and interesting! 
I'm not too sure about that one! A true account Very boring, bland and bigheaded Background details to a historical tragedy Writer naive, gullible. Not too long, inexpensive, very lyrical style Not as funny or clever as the author likes to think he is The funny parts are hilarious, some interesting cultural snippets Too much unnecessary political stuff; unlikeable author Well written, interesting Author makes a few claims he can't back upRule by Secrecy - Jim Marrs
Compelling, educational and entertaining. Fantastical final chapters, questionable.

Finger Puppet Friends: Where is Mama Bear?
Very cute idea Badly executed, hardly any story, not much to do with the puppets
Hunter's Moon - Lori Handeland
Enjoyable, good plot, good character development Not romance
Panic Signs - Cristina Peri Rossi
beautifully translated, poetic, satirical, imaginative, multi-layered, Kafka-esque difficult subject, difficult to interpret the meaning behind the metaphor
Sin City: Hell and Back - Frank Miller
Incredibly evocative artwork, strong story telling Graphic, adult nature of the content may offend. After this, there is no more Sin City
The Principessa - Christie Dickason
Action packed historical fiction. Doesn't have the varied sub-plots of its predecessor.
Fairy Tales for Little Children
well written, well illustrated fairy stories pages can be torn
The Judging Eye - R.Scott Bakker
Very well plotted Unevenly paced
Adept - Robert Finn
Great fun, engaging story, strong sense of humour sets it apart from similar books Wholly unoriginal and chock full of cliches; Author has an obsession with the IBook
