Fantastic Novel!Review Date: 2005-12-29
Meeting Natasha Again, for the Very First TimeReview Date: 2008-07-18
In THE BODYGUARD, we get the full background on Nattie, Striker, Pit, Bigun, and Roger. How they met, how their relationships developed, and how they all came together as the "family" they are. The story opens with Natasha, the office manager for an investigation firm, getting her big chance to become an investigator herself. To do that, she must first take on the role of bodyguard for Roger Valentine, a ridiculously wealthy, nerdy, reclusive computer software genius who has received death threats. Natasha reluctantly accepts the job, and we are off at break-neck speed on a non-stop, action-packed, edge of your seat adventure. Natasha has a kind of wide-eyed innocence combined with a strict moral code; she cannot stand to see any harm or cruelty done to any living thing, and she is going to single-handedly take on the world, righting one wrong at a time. Of course, this leads to many extremely bizarre, humorous, and dangerous situations, which, for the reader, leads to a fun and exciting read.
Christy Tillery French is unmistakably a very talented author; however, there are two specific elements of her style that clearly standout. The first is her characters. They are so authentic, so well developed, so alive, so real that they feel like family. People who live next door. People you have known all your life. I really like these characters, and think of them as friends. The second is how Ms. French draws you into her stories with action blasting off on the first page...from the first paragraph. No wind up, no pitch, just BAM! You are instantly submerged in her world. And she does this without losing any detail or information important to the story. It all flows together for a breathtaking read.
I believe the fourth installment of the Bodyguard Series is due out late this year. Having read the first three books quite quickly this summer, I will miss Nattie, Striker, and the gang until then. I have very much enjoyed my time with these new friends. I can't wait to see them again. Oh, Christy...

Great start to what looks like a fun series. I like that this protagonist is so young, which means, I'm sure, that we'll see plenty of changes with her as she develops in her career.
A fun readReview Date: 2007-10-26
If you like quirky, offbeat characters, a mystery plot, romance, and a bit of suspense, give this one a try. I'm anxious to read #2 in the series.

Necessary reading for all human beings living atop the Earth [or elsewhere]. Review Date: 2008-07-23
Simply put, this book is worth reading.
The Vigyan Bhairav Tantra meditation manual is, by itself, worth reading multiple times [and, hopefully, practicing all the techniques found therein] and Osho's one-of-a-kind commentary makes this a great work to keep by your side.
There is more to this book than a simple commentary on Tantric meditation methods - there's a comprehensive outlining of both Osho's overall approach to existence and the teachings 'of old' from almost every school of experience, where it applies, with a particular emphasis on Zen, Tantra, and Taoism.
Anyone who doesn't benefit from this book at least a little is clearly insane and should give up his or her search for the ultimate and find a thick, sturdy rope.

I am so grateful to Osho for giving this knowledge to the world. So far I have tried some techniques and already something is happening. If you are serious about inner transformation, this book is for you.

The complete tales fo of Winnie the PoohReview Date: 2008-07-14
I'm fifteen and I LOVE these stories!!!Review Date: 2008-03-26
Each story makes you wonder what intriguing adventure or silly mishap the next will hold in store for you. Whenever I take out the book or simply look at the cover, I get a comfortable, warm feeling inside; because I know that each story is filled with the timeless, treasured tales of a talented author. I was somewhat surprised (and a little humored), however, in the manner in which the characters sometimes acted and spoke. For example, when Rabbit, Piglet, and Pooh are trying to think of a plan to capture Baby Roo (which is also a little disturbing), Rabbit "gently" tells Pooh that he "has no Brain" and Piglet "no Pluck." Why must he be so harsh? Eeyore, though, surprised me the most. The most I knew of Eeyore from Disney's viewpoint was that he was a poor, sad, and mostly forgotten creature. I always felt sad for him. However, after reading the stories, it is very difficult to feel bad for him when he is constantly going around throwing insults whenever he gets the chance. For example, when Piglet goes to visit Eeyore to give him some violets, he sees Eeyore staring at three sticks on the ground that are in the shape of the letter "A". Eeyore proceeds to tell Piglet that the "A" represents "Education, it means all the things that you and Pooh haven't got...but to the Educated--mark this, little Piglet--to the Educated, not meaning Poohs and Piglets, it's a great and glorious A." See my point? But overall, it is a very satisfying story that no child (or adult, for that matter) should miss out on. What is also a great plus is that it's a beautiful and durable hardcover edition that also has a ribbon bookmark.

Excellent Field Guide for Young BirdwatchersReview Date: 2008-05-06
We purchased the National Geographic guide and The Audubon Backyard guide, but THE SIBLEY FIELD GUIDE TO BIRDS of EASTERN NORTH AMERICA is by far the best. Everything about each bird is all on one page. The illustrations, "(more than 4200 total)" are smaller but plenty large enough to see each bird's features.
We are able to see the bird's appearance from juvenile to adult and breeding or non-breeding. We love the way we can look at the characteristics of the bird, the detailed descriptions and a map showing where the bird thrives all on the same page. It is informative and concise.
My son has discovered a vast array of birds in our area. He has been intrigued by their characteristics and songs. Uncle Max's love for birds and nature, and the spirit that has been passed on to my son through his artwork, lit the spark! My son's enthusiasm for bird watching has been fueled by referencing David Sibley's meticulous and inspiring work, THE SIBLEY FIELD GUIDE TO BIRDS OF EASTERN NORTH AMERICA. Together, G. Max White and David Sibley have encouraged my son's passion for birds; a love that will last a lifetime!

The author became a U.S citizen and fought in Vietnam. I would have liked to read about the author's experience in this country, and his experience, as a pilot in our Air Force.

Like You Were ThereReview Date: 2008-05-18
He manages to write the book with more of a novel feel then a biography of the people involved. Other similar books, such as 'Homicide Special' try for the same thing, but you still feel the writer in their presence. Simon makes the reader feel as if they are there without feeling that the writer is intruding on anything.
The cases the officers work on are all interesting, and not all are slam dunks or even solvable. Many authors would feel a need to make their book have cases with endings. I applaud Simon for not giving in to that temptation.
Baltimore definitely plays a role in this book, and you get a real feeling for the city. You can see in this book the seed that would eventually sprout the series 'Homicide'.
If you are interested in detective work this is an excellent read. I highly recommend this book.

What Simon was able to put together from his year's worth of journalistic scribblings on life with the good guys and the bad guys is a fantastic fly on the wall's eye view: the graphic violence of crime scenes, the raunchy humor of and banter between the detectives, the despair of the victims' family members, and the utter stupidity of many of the criminals: (p 16) "the investigator's saving grace is the killer's overwhelming disposition toward incompetence or, at the very least, gross error." His Guidebook of Death Investigation Rules are remarkable: (p 34) "Rule Number One...the page 1 entry in a detective's lexicon: Everyone lies." Rule Five is equally profound (p 237), "It's good to be good: it's better to be lucky." Best of the book: Simon's ability to capture the events in a comprehensive and cohesive manner, even with several welcome change ups to the overall chronological format. Covering every aspect of "life on the killer streets" Homicide is a perfect read for tome-loving crime buffs, neither category of which I belong. Also good, In Cold Blood by Truman Capote, The Executioner's Song by Norman Mailer, and Green River, Running Red by Ann Rule.

This books acts a self-confidence booster for parents, offers very empathetic advice when it comes to parental anger, and actually gives very practical tips and hints to deal with misbehavior.
I love the humor and the bright, positive thinking that fills up the book, and I really appreciate the fact that Pantley also addresses other side issues like marriage skills and parental self-esteem.
Overall a great book.

I am a mother of three children and have used this with my 1st grader and my toddler/preschooler. And as the baby gets into toddlerhood I am sure that I will continue to use the advice from this book with all three.


More useful advice on life in less space than any book I've ever readReview Date: 2007-03-13
The end page, Even Lazier, has a few sentences that will remind you what really matters when you need it most. For instance, "What do you think it is that needs to be loved?", a perfect answer to every time you struggle with negativity in any form. The ultimate reminder is "No resistance". Once you read this book--takes an hour or two max, and is a lot of fun--you'll know how deep those two words really are.
No new age book yet has come close to the concision and relaxed optimism of the Lazy Man's Guide.
Not bad for a broke head writing in a Berkeley hotel in the late 60s.
But then, old JC was a nutty freak too, wasn't he?
Blessings and much love, Mr. Golas.

This book is a lesson on unconditional loveReview Date: 2004-07-07
What I have learned from this book is that no resistence is the way to love people with charity; with full unconditional love. If you can look at someone for what they are, with all of their strengths and weaknesses and love them regardless of what is right or wrong, in fact, love them for what they are, for what you see wrong in them too then you have discovered what many call the Christ love and are no longer drawn to and imprisoned by what you might deny.
From reading this book it has become very clear to me that we become what we hate. The very thing that we fight against is what we become. The same with our government fighting against terrorism, it has become a federal terrorist. The terrorist fighting against unjust governments have become unjust. Self appointed protectors fighting against what they perceive as protecting the innocent have become the guilty.
It always works that way.... no resistence is the only answer, love that which you would hate and you will not become that. It appears that the universe is built to teach us compassion. Hate something enough and you are drawn to it like iron to a magnet, offering your soul to the very thing which you sought to deny and in the end becoming a perfect image of that which you tried to destroy.
The big joke is that because none of us see everything the same way many of the pretty or ugly colors that you might see upon others uniquely exist in your own mind alone because you have colored them that way. When you see injustice, cruelty, ignorance and stupidity most of what you see does not exist exactly the way you see it, sometimes far from the truth. When you fight the image upon the mirror of your mind it's the most dangerous enemy you can possibly have because the internal oscillations of hate and dislike reflecting off of the surfaces of your own judgments take on a life as your own personal phantoms capable of haunting you to the ends of your days, never vanishing until accepted and loved for what they are, for what you have created.
Fighting against another with hate is like offering your soul to the devil. You will be consumed by and become the very thing you sought to perish. In the end trading one for the other, you stand in its place. Do as you wish to diminish the problems in this world, but do it without the resistence of hate, replace it with accepting love or you will become that which you fight against.

A thoroughly enjoyable,informative,easy read. Jon Barron touches on a variety of topics relating to achieving an improved state of health. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone (not just those who are interested in alternative/complementary health care).
The author empowers the reader with sufficient knowledge and information that will hopefully be the catalyst for them to start changing their approach to looking after their bodies.
