world of oppression,
I love this book!
This book is hilarious
one of the best books
After Insurgent
story is just so emotional and touching
The characters are charming
the book based on Dodd's diary and the ancillary writings of others, is extensively researched
story line was good at keeping the reader encased
relationship
novel won numerous literary awards
I adored her
the book in preparation for this review
The story was heartbreaking
Amazon
Told from three different points of view
it was available in English prior to Christmas everywhere except USA
Story is intriguing though incredulous
horrifying tale
it's somewhat SciFi and the description just didn't seem to grab me
book started out good and interesting but it definately slowed down
Has hilarious stories
this story is exciting
I loved that this book was a little more adult than the previous books
a bit of magic
Highly recommended
Their story is riveting, appalling, and highly readable.
The story was so touching and had me guessing the entire time I was reading
Definitely the best book
A few of the paragraphs do tend to go on a sentence fragment or two too long
very good
Like there should be part 2 which I would not read
story and concept are unique, interesting, and captivating.
Very surprised considering its popularity
characters were likeable
Highly recommended
The concept is intriguing (4 stars) and the pace satisfactory ( 3 stars)
it is so simple to read and understand, and hence easy to remember
and I liked Kay's "Tigana" and Brooks' Shannara books very much
the rest of the book
I really loved this book
was a good book and an easy read
This story line is amazing
fans of the series will ultimately be at least satisfied
This one is hard to put down
very depressing narrative
this book was thought provoking and insightful
The good ones are nice
This is a groundbreaking book
great love
One of my new favorite books of all time
scenes between the two are both sexy and erotic
the book is clearly well researched and accessible
I think his best were Jurassic Park and the Andromeda Strain
was a bit of a disaster but that's why I loved it so much. Travis and Abby were two very flawed characters with a lot of issues to work through. For some reason these always become my favorite types of characters. To me, it makes it even more special to see them grow and change and I feel like the payoff is even bigger at the end. I know a lot of people really didn't like Travis but I absolutely and completely LOVED him, everything about him! The good and the bad. Yes, he can be a jerk and he has one hell of a temper and some major jealousy issues but all of these flaws just made him even more realistic to me. Don't worry because he doesn't stay that way throughout the whole book. Once he meets Abby he slowly starts changing, sometimes for the better, sometimes not. But the important thing to me is that he tries to be a better person for Abby. There is another character in this book, Parker, who is somewhat a love interest to Abby. He was pretty much perfect: good looking, rich, nice, good manners, Harvard-bound...and I absolutely could not stand him! He was such a bore. Maybe it's just me and maybe I'm not right in the head but I like reading about the messed up characters. The more screwed up they are, the better I like them. (Most of the time)Abby was a very complex character. She has a shady past and has worked hard to move on from it. But from the moment she meets Travis, she can't help but feel drawn to him. Don't worry; this isn't one of those insta-love stories. In fact, it's the completely opposite. It's one of those almostexcruciating but awesome slow build-ups that pushes them together one moment only to have them ripped apart the next. Abby and Travis have such a complicated and messed up friendship and their relationship is even more messed up. Just like the quote above says, when things are good between them it was such a beautiful thing. But when things went bad, it was definitely disastrous. At first, I really liked Abby because she was really tough and she would stand up to herself to Travis and didn't take any of his bullshit. But the closer they got, and the more blurry the line between friendship and romance got, she did some very stupid things which made me want to reach into the book and slap her a couple of times. (Maybe more than a couple)It's official! I found my new favorite category: New Adult! I mostly read YA (hence the blog name) and as much as I love them I sometimes feel like there is something missing. Well I found out what that was: sex! This is another thing that adds a realistic element to the story. I don't know why but it always bugs me when couples in YA wait until the third book to finally have sex. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against waiting and I definitely love the sexual tension until then, but what is it about the third book that makes it ok then? The relationship between Travis and Abby is scorching hot without being graphic or inappropriate
I liked watching the movie n going back to the book
this
I was fascinated by Bill O'Reilly's book on Jesus's life and death
Every character in this book is odd. The plot is odd
The ending of this book is terrible
This fourth book
This is an exceptionally well written
The book didn't really have many new insights
action was good
looking
Liked the book much more
good guys have to do is swing their swords around a few times and they can easily defeat entire armies of bad guys. One top of that, the good guys are led by an Aes Sedai (a female wizard) who can do more or less anything, so there's never any real sense of danger. The action scenes also grow very repetitive. For instance, there's one scene where our heroes are being chased by a horde of villians, but luckily they're able to run into a magic place where the bad guys just aren't willing to go. This exact same scene gets repeated twice later in the novel.Many people seem to think that the characterizations are one of this novel's strengths, but I don't agree. The main character is named Rand al'Thor, and the novel is supposed to show him changing from an ordinary farmboy into a great warrior. The problem is that he doesn't act like an ordinary person at the start; none of the five characters who grew up in a small down do. They all acts like soldiers right from the start. They're willing to plunge into battle without any hesitation, and the children always act totally grown up. I found the characters to be largely static and unbelievable.This certainly isn't a terrible novel. As I mentioned, it does have a wonderful surprise ending. Just don't expect to be swept away by it. Also, be sure to read the gloassary at the end, which is more entertaining than most of the book.
it will blow you away
steamy sex
the confusion of the many characters can mask the whodunit
journey of Sky and Holder
The created other world and its animosities are also believable in their sentiments
premise is interesting
concepts behind this book are indeed fascinating
There is no basis for why these characters come together
it has a great plot that flows well despite many twists and turns
Subject matter is difficult, of course, but through the eyes, heart
would be INCREDIBLE
I am floored at how bad this book is considering I absolutely loved the first two books in the series
I found the topic interesting in that the future

crackers to be dry as dust
It has no metallic taste or aftertase
The South Beach Living Fiber Fit Mocha bar
The Keebler Town Pita cracker (Sea Salt) is definitely a little on the salty side
the taste is pretty awesome
the flavor is quite bland
So bear in mind that this 6-box pack will probably give you about 18 bowls of cereal when considering the cost
A small piece of chocolate brings this lunch to a sweet and dark end

favorite brand of popcorn
I didn't like the bar at all
I like my coffee strong

The fruit punch flavor tastes just like Kool
I can't recommend it outside of a very good sale.
the end of the day
the flavor of fresh watermelon (not candy sweet watermelon) is crisp yet light and enhanced by the carbonation
tastes like your tap water
I adore him

Essentia is a good tasting water
the texture is very light and crisp
I love cherries
was delicious
LOADED with pepper. When I first opened the container and saw these nuts, it looked like someone had wet them and dredged them in black pepper. And believe me...You can taste the pepper; and it stays with you. Very, very spicy. Too much so for me. I also agree with other reviewers who have said the nuts are too salty
fresh taste. Just pure clean water. No after taste, no odd tastes overall. I love the bigger sized bottle. I cannot attest to the benefits of drinking pH water specifically because I only tried the one bottle and of course did not see any benefits or notice anything spectacularly different from any other water.I suppose if you have great interest in the long term benefits of drinking Essentia with its 9.5pH and if you do not mind the price, it is worth it. I myself cannot see spending so much on bottled water, although it does have a very good, pure taste
I don't like this type of snack
this product taste great
The soup is rich and tasty
shelf life to be longer
The texture is more on the smooth side than the crunchy side
The bar itself is chewy and tastes great
predominantly mango with some ginger and just right amount of hot Habaneros
This option is better because the box contains six individually wrapped packages
have dry skin
I found the taste of the Back to Nature grahams to be comparable to Honey Grahams but not nearly as sweet or intense
If this was loose coffee, it would get 4 stars
There are not many
This was an enjoyable and refreshing treat
I have to say I loved this film
One of the most powerful films ever made
the sound and picture quality is awesome
finally
nothing else see it for the scenery
sound quality are excellent
Cabin Fever is simply a dreadful horror film
The film is visually stunning
is a very well written musical
Some of this ideas has been somehow treated more recently in movies such as
episode is interesting
the best shows to air on television
this film wasn't so much funny as stupid
The storyline is intriguing, to say the least
the special effects are terrible
I marginally liked this film
first season of a very funny show
film where his directorial style worked in perfect synergy with mainstream Hollywood. Many of his other earlier films, including BEETLEJUICE (1988), EDWARD SCISSORHANDS (1993), ED WOOD (1994), and ironically BATMAN RETURNS (1992) are 100% TIM BURTON! They are all great in that Burtonesque way. While Burton's first Batman film BATMAN has obvious Burton touches: odd and disturbing characters, dark tone, neo-noirish look, the film still manages to be generally accessible to the mass audience. It moves at a fast, breezy pace and has an epic, Hollywood feel to it, with a satisfying conclusion. But that, in this case, is not a bad thing! I have re-watched this entertaining flick so many times it isn't funny! It just works. Can't say that for many of the superhero films in this new PC, uninspired generation of films.I actually saw BATMAN (1989) when it first came out in movie theatres and was blown away by it's originality and scope...still am. Even more so now since it holds up 20+ years later as great entertainment. In retrospect, Michael Keaton was the perfect choice to play the fractured, flawed antiheroic Bruce Wayne AKA Batman. But I always felt he was the right choice! Keaton captures the guarded loneliness of the Bruce Wayne character, while still being very convincing as a tough guy who can hold his own when donning the cape and cowl! Mr. Burton...you made the right choice!The other inspired (and perhaps more obvious) choice was casting the legendary Jack Nicholson as Jack Napier AKA The Joker. Nicholson is convincing as high-level "yes man" thug Napier who through a nasty accident becomes facially scarred and assumes the Joker persona. And Nicholson really looks like The Joker in this! He has so many memorable lines that I think about all the time. The hero-villain chemistry between he and Keaton is electric.Kim Basinger (at her most gorgeous!) admirably plays nosy photojournalist Vicki Vale, who arrives in Gotham City to unlock the secret of the mysterious Caped Crusader who has been "terrorizing" low level criminals throughout the city. She ends up falling in love with Bruce Wayne (lucky bastard!). Basinger is the weakest link of the main actors, but she still does a good job of emoting, being simultaneously fascinated and repulsed by Batman and Joker's antics. She screams a lot, but look at the freaks she's dealing with! Can you blame her?The solid supporting cast includes Michael Gough (wonderful turn as Alfred, Bruce's ever-so-reliable and dependable butler and caretaker), Robert Wuhl (in an energetic turn as Vicki's fellow reporter Alex Knox), Billy Dee Williams (as DA Harvey Dent), and Pat Hingle (as world-weary Police Commissioner Gordon). In particular, Keaton and Gough have an effortless chemistry as though they have been close their whole lives. Gough came back for Schumacher's cartoonish campy films and he had none of the chemistry with either Kilmer or Clooney that he had with Keaton in the Burton ones. It was weird watching Gough's Alfred interact with those tepid versions of Bruce Wayne.As previously stated, I am amazed at how Burton's style fused perfectly with more conventional Hollywood touches and created something special out of it. It could have been a monumental failure, but instead ended up being a template for all future superhero films.

I recommended the film to a relative and we saw it together
This a pretty good movie and it had A LOT of blood
I was nave to think that this third installment of the Twilight cultural phenomenon would be any better or more interesting than the first two "films" in the series
the songs are not bad
The service and price were excellent
I would be fascinated
this movie is awesome

ridiculous
That said ... the music
Action was fun
evolve musically and it very cool
The film wasn't all bad, but you would expect better from a Star Wars film, and the bad acting did let the film down dramatically
It is a very full-toned and haunting picture
If you love Laurel and Hardy, this package will please you beyond words

The extras on disc two are interesting and the previews for the extended version and TTT accomplish their purpose extreemly well.***original review below.***First the bad.The movie CHOPS 20% of the book -in one big chunk- (muttering a chapter title doesn't count!). The story of how Merry and Pippin become involved is cut and CHANGED. The old forest and the Barrow Wights are also missing. Some of Tolkien's best descriptions are found in the forest scenes (gnarly, old, and aware trees; gloom and darkness; spiders and other creatures lurking! The Galadriel scene is BAD. And there are two things wrong with Moria. 1. The cave troll scene is too long and it should have some texture on its skin (of fur). 2. I would have liked to see a bit more of Moria. The special effects when the ring is worn are overdone. One too many sweeping helicopter shots of the river. Finally, the scene where Sam goes into the river at the end was done all wrong!***Now for the GOOD***The history of the ring is told very well. Many scenes show a great deal of very good creativity. The Shire scenes are wonderful. Good humor (except in Rivendell, and taht the "conspiracy unmasked" was cut out). ***The reactions of Gandalf and especially Boromir to being near the ring really helps display the evil power of the ring. Their acting (and the direction in these scenes) is PERFECT!*** The wraiths were also done very well.The special effects and music are teriffic. The color and "tone" of the river and the huge statues at the end are especially tastefully done. Shrinking the Hobbits was just plain unbelieveable when they were running around several other characters. The scene at Orthanc was visually spectacular and the duel was creatively and tastefully done.Substituting Arwen for Glorfindel neatens things. The moria scenes (except for the above criticisms), are superb -especially when Gandalf "defeats" the balrog.[All of the smaller plots of the book could have been done except it would have confused and blurred things for the unread, and the movie would have been five hours long! Maybe six movies would have been required for everything???]***The DVDs' extras look extreemly promising!***
the worst movies ever made

variety of top restaurants in Toronto and around the world for that matter. Last night was our first time at Cluny and we were both very excited to try it out. When we walked in, we were immediately impressed with the quaint French bistro décor and overall feel and ambiance. Loved the little bakery at the front of the restaurant. When we arrived, we were not greeted by anyone (restaurant wasn't even busy at this point 6:45 Monday evening), after about 5 mins of standing there looking around, someone that looked like he was one of the Chefs (who happened to be getting something in the stock room/closet, finally said someone will be with you shortly. We were greeted by the hostess with a less than impressive hello. After we were seated, it took about 10mins before we were acknowledged by our Waiter for the evening. Again, was not impressed by his demeanor and lack of interest in us as guest. We've probably had better service at a local Chain restaurant or a drive thru for that matter! Our appetizers came relatively quickly (Oysters, Cod balls and Caesar salad). The Caesar salad was a complete disappointment, perhaps I had high expectations but when you proudly call a dish Cluny Caesar with a price tag of $13+ I would expect a little more than 2 branches of Romaine barely drizzled with dressing and 4-5 chick peas and feta lining the bottom. We ordered Oysters and when it was brought to us, the Waitress was trying to explain the different Oysters and said Oh and I forget what this one is called.... Anyway, I don't want to get too lengthy with the review here but all in all I would rate the food quite good (minus the Caesar salad) at this restaurant but the underwhelming service takes this place to a whole new low. The atmosphere in terms of décor and ambiance were excellent, very reminiscent of a bistro in Paris which is a rare find here. The service was beyond below average. Our waiter (middle aged male, appeared quite sloppy if I can be honest

it's next to a BART station
The service was great
this place smelled horrible, had ratty bedding, and no air conditioning. Noisy room with a view of a brick wall. Since there's no air conditioning all windows in hotel were open which allowed for cigarette smoke, sirens, and other guests noise to float right into my room. If you are a woman traveling alone I would avoid this place. The doors were not very secure and there was so little staff in the lobby there's no way they had any real security. This place was so bad

This hotel was absolutely horrible
excellent hotels
The view was awesome
The floors creak like you wouldn't believe
the Hotel entrance is just steps from the station exit. It is also a few blocks from Davies Hall, where the Symphony plays. The down side of the location is that this is not a great section of Market and most people probably will not feel too comfortable walking at night. So, take BART or the ample public transit. The hotel is nicely kept and clean. The building has some interesting architectural details. Still, it is an old and somewhat tired property and some of the remodeling is not the best. Same for the fitness center -- the room and equipment are older, but meet my needs. The food is good, but overpriced. If you are bothered by traffic notice, ask for a quiet room in back. The rooms in front overlook Market
The service and concierge were exceptional
