Innocent by Joe Prentis

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Innocent by Joe Prentis This book is about a small town with big town problems. Every one has been a victim at one point in there lives what they chose to do with this is up to the person. I could relate to the people in this story it was very believable and even though it was a work of fiction you find yourself drawn into the story and are swept away by it. I give this a 5 out of 5 because it is believable and it kept you guessing right up till the end. It has a very important subject matter. This pre-reader copy of the book was provided for me
by the author.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Glory By Devin O'Branagan
Love, Hate, Life, Death,and Faith, these are words that we all take for granted every day, yet they seem to be what holds the fabric of the universe together. This book is about a young girl who finds that each one of those words are more than just words they are power. When Glory finds out that she is the cure for a deadly plague she is thrown into a world she only thought existed in the movies. With the help of some very unconventional friends she finds herself in a deadly race to save all of humanity. I found this book to be very enjoyable and well worth the read because it was filled with love, loss, and passion. It is not like any other book that I have read of this kind and should not be treated as such just because of the subject matter or characters in it. This book is all about the the power of Faith and should be approached that way.

The Free Fall of Webster Cummings by Tom Bodett

The Free Fall of Webster Cummings by Tom Bodett

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This book is about a man who falls from the sky and decides to find himself on the way down. I think that this book had a great beginning but the ending fizzled out and got lost somewhere. I think that the author may have turned out the light as he wrote the last few pages or just got tired and decided he was done writing .
This hard back book was acquire from the McKay's free bin

Echoes from the Macabre: Selected Stories

Echoes from the Macabre: Selected Stories by Daphne du Maurier

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


This book is a collection of short stories. I found these stories to be very interesting and would have been something as a larger body of work but as they are written they seemed lacking substance. You will either love them or hate them.

The Earthsea Trilogy by Ursula K. LeGuin

The Earthsea Trilogy: A Wizard of Earthsea; The Tombs of Atuan; The Farthest Shore by Ursula K. Le Guin

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Book One - A Wizard of Earthsea
This is about a young man's journey from a lonely poor boy to a wizard of legend. I think This little adventure is well written. It is about the way pride and envy can make you loose yourself. This is one man's quest to find it again before it destroys him forever Just like any quest it is full of adventure, joy and pearl.

The moral of it all being to face your fear head on and beat it before it beats you. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy especially young adults.

Book Two- The Tombs of Atuan
At age five a young girl is taken from her family and is striped of everything including her name. Her job is to be the High priestess to the ancient and nameless powers of the earth. Her whole existence is changed however when she meets a thief who has come to claim a treasure that was long since lost.

I think that this book is about the dangers of major organizations that have to much power and how they can take everything away from you. Then blind you from the reality of what is really important Love!
A quote from the book says it best
"What she had begun to learn was the weight of liberty. Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice maybe a hard one. The road goes upward towards the light but the laden traveler may never reach the end of it." © Page 141 in the book The Tombs of Autan by Ursula K. Le Guin
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy especially young adults.



Book Three- The Farthest Shore
In the beginning of this book a boy fallows a wizard on a quest to find what has gone wrong with the world. In the end the Wizard fallows the man to his destiny. This book is about the circle of life and the balance between good and evil. Everything that lives must die and everything that dies must live first. That is the way of the world. I think that this book was a good summery of all that one has learned from the other books. That you have to live and do what you love because that is what holds the world together. Balance and order are accomplished by the the opposites of Life, Death, Hate and love.
I would recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy especially young adults.


As a whole this Trilogy is a fantasy twist of the truths of reality. They all are worth the read for young and old alike.

BS by Jerry Serra

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This book is about business culture and how we can change it. I give this 4 out of 5 for originality and humor. This book the the reason that my husband and I chose to work form home. It is all about how time is wasted in the business world by the formality of titles and procedure . If every business including the government read this book and fallowed its teachings then this world would be a better place.[return]This book was provided free of any obligation by Publishing Works, Inc.
