Book Review: The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron
Its been a while since I've written in this blog, and not because I haven't read bits and pieces here and there. But it occurred to me that perhaps I should write a bit about a very informative book. Elaine N. Aron wrote a book called The Highly Sensitive Person. In personal discussion, a friend … Continue reading Book Review: The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron
Book Review: The Farseer – Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb
Finally, she held up one that was like a silver bit of net with a blue stone caught in it. She made a face over it, then nodded reluctantly. "That man has taste. Whatever else he lacks, he has taste." She held it up to my ear again, and with absolutely no warning, thrust the … Continue reading Book Review: The Farseer – Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb
Book Review: The Stand by Stephen King
'You are to go west,' Mother Abagail whispered. 'You are to take no food, no water. You are to go this very day, and in the clothes you stand up in. You are to go on foot. I am in the way of knowing that one of you will not reach your destination, but I … Continue reading Book Review: The Stand by Stephen King
Short Story Review: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by RL Stephenson
Many a man would have even blazoned such irregularities as I was guilty of; but from the high views that I had set before me, I regarded and hid them with an almost morbid sense of shame. It was thus rather the exacting nature of my aspirations, than any particular degradation in my faults, that … Continue reading Short Story Review: Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by RL Stephenson
Book Review: Captain Corelli’s Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres
I am not a cynic, but I do know that history is the propaganda of the victors. I know that if we win the war there will be shocking stories of British atrocities, volumes written to show the inevitability and justice of our cause, irrefutable evidence compiled to reveal the conspiracies of Jewish plutocrats, photographs … Continue reading Book Review: Captain Corelli’s Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres
Book Review: Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
Mr. Collins, moreover, adds: "I am truly rejoiced that my cousin Lydia's sad business has been so well hushed up, and am only concerned that their living together before the marriage took place, should be so generally known. I must not, however, neglect the duties of my station, or refrain from declaring my amazement, at … Continue reading Book Review: Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen
CD Review: Good Monsters by Jars of Clay
I have no fear of drowning, it's the breathing that's taking all this work ~ Work - Jars of Clay While this is not a music page, I decided this weekend that I'd had enough of my current music collection and went on a binge, buying 7 CD's, though one is an early Christmas gift … Continue reading CD Review: Good Monsters by Jars of Clay
Book Review: God in the Alley by Greg Paul
Hosea's love for Gomer was very human. Her betrayals made him crazy with grief and anger and prompted him to issue extravagant promises of revenge. He'd pout that she "went after her lovers, but me she forgot." And in the next breath he'd "allure her...speak tenderly to her," then he'd runt out and pay her … Continue reading Book Review: God in the Alley by Greg Paul
Book Review: Bono in Conversation with Michka Assayas
You mean you're too busy doing things to understand who you really are. I will say this: there's a noise that you see on the surface, a kind of certain frenetic hyperactive person doing lots of things, with lots of interests and ideas that I'm chasing. But below that, really, at the very bottom of … Continue reading Book Review: Bono in Conversation with Michka Assayas
Book Review: Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel
I think to myself: I have finally gotten so impossible and unpleasant that they will really have to do something to make me better. And then I realize, they think they are doing all they can and it's not working. They have no idea what a bottomless pit of misery I am. They will have … Continue reading Book Review: Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel
Book Review: Through Painted Deserts by Donald Miller
“Life is a dance toward God, I begin to think. And the dance is not so graceful as we might want. While we glide and swing our practiced sway, God crowds our feet, bumps our toes, and scuffs our shoes. So we learn to dance with the One who made us. And it is … Continue reading Book Review: Through Painted Deserts by Donald Miller
