I thoroughly enjoyed this audio book. I loved the movie, but as usual, the book is even better. I do not have much time to read, but I listen to plenty of audio books in the car, the shower, and bed. This one was really hard to turn off. Even though I had seen the movie, it still kept me on the edge of my seat!

This is very good if someone just needs the just exel, powerpoint, and word. Also comes with Onenote that is great for keeping notes for daily life.

This was a great buy, the Ipod was brand-new, and it arrived two days ahead of the expected time.

Thank you very much!

The depth of the characters and their voices hold you while reading this book. I’m generally a non-fiction reader but this author writes so beautifully that I felt I was watching a movie. The range of emotions that the characters experience flowed to me as the reader. Some situations made me uncomfortable for the characters…now THAT’S a well-written piece.

I highly recommend spending a few hours with this cast.

I grew up an hour’s drive from Jackson, Mississippi, albeit a generation before that of Ms. Stockett, and this slight novel did not ring true in any way for me. I found the characters stock and unengaging, and the writing arch and contrived for cheap laughs. I was assured that I would recognize the characters, but I did not. The white women were a tiny bit more believable than the black women. The book’s only real humor, for me, was in the parody of “high society” in the utterly provincial town of Jackson. I strongly suggest reading Eudora Welty to discover something more than the surface of Mississippi’s shameful racist past (and present?).
A good comparison for this work would be John Kennedy Toole’s “A Confederacy of Dunces” which brilliantly succeeds in interpreting life in New Orleans. Fanny Flagg’s work is far far funnier, and more real.

If you like The Chronicles of Narnia, the Tripods Trilogy by John Christopher, or other Sci-Fi/Fantasy books, you’ll love this series! Who would’ve thought that two things as unlikely as a human 12-year-old boy genius and an underground world of faries would go so well together? This book will definitely give you a whole new perspective on faries! Read this, you will enjoy it! It’s NOT overrated!!

We’ve been using Office XP for way too long, but it did everything we needed it to do so there was no reason to upgrade.

When my wife got a new laptop, some of the software she uses under Windows 7 wouldn’t work with Office XP, and we were forced to bite the bullet and upgrade to the current version. And it honestly isn’t bad! Very different coming from something so old, but there are a lot of improvements that make it worthwhile.

I’m not crazy about how Microsoft changed around it’s various licensing schemes and the cost of upgrading, but the Home and Student version hits the sweet spot of giving us what we needed without too extreme a cost.

If you only need the basic applications in Office, and it’s time to upgrade, this package is definitely worth a look.

I read a lot of books and I never thought I would love the kindle like I love books. The weight of the book and the feel of the paper in your hands, not to mention the smell. However, I have had my kindle for just a month and I love it. It is one of the best things I have ever purchased. It is lightweight, easy to read and can fit in my handbag so I can take it anywhere. I also love the fact that if you aren’t too sure what a book will be like you can ask for a sample to be sent to your kindle so you know that you will either like it or not before you spend money on a book you don’t like.

Let me start by stating that Twilight is the second supernatural novel I had ever read at the time. I read Twilight almost 2 years ago. I will be honest; when I first read Twilight I `liked’ it. I thought it was a good book. After about a year I had read more supernatural books. That’s when I started to think about Twilight and that’s also when I realized that it was a little overrated. I have my reasons as to why I didn’t enjoy the book as much.

Number One: The Characters. Isabella Swan, who likes to be called Bella, is the main character. Bella arrives to Forts, Washington with a kind of gloomy mood. She seems dry and unconcerned at first. I thought this would soon go away. I later find out that I was wrong. Bella’s mood was a major turn off. Edward was exactly the same. He was boring and was hard to read about. Usually I like my characters to be quirky and witty. The only characters that I liked were Alice, Emmett, and Jacob.

Number Two: The Plot. The plot or should I say the `lack of plot’ through me off completely, from reading the back of the book I knew that it was about a girl falling in love with a vampire. But, I didn’t realize that it would have no other action. The only action I found remotely exciting was the fight scene at the very end of the book, and it still left me a little dry.
Number Three: The Couple. Because Bella and Edward are both boring, they bored me to near death as a couple. I would have rather read about Alice and Jasper or Emmett and Rosalie. I grew tired of Bella and Edward.

All in All, I gave this book three stars because even though it lacked to components to a good story it was still and okay read and I don’t regret reading it.

Everyone recommended this book and series to me. EVERYONE told me that I wouldn’t be able to sleep because I was so engrossed in the book. As a result, I pushed through even though I was bored to tears. In fact, I slept like a log after reading this book because it was sooooo boring.

What is the problem with this book?
1. The author is tooooo wordy. It would literally take her 20 or 30 pages what a regular author could say in 3-5 pages.

2. Everyone in the school thought Bella was soooo beautiful. I just didn’t get it. This girl got like 4 invitations to a dance. If she was all that, surely she wouldn’t have to settle for some creepy vampire who likes to eat bears.

3. We had to be told over and over again that Bella was clumsy. We, the reader, never got to learn of Bella’s so called clumsiness. We had to hear about her tripping, almost being kidnapped or raped, hitting her head in the gym and so forth. Someone that clumsy would have been dead or seriously injured years ago.

4. Edward has been 17 for years, yet the town didn’t notice it. In fact, Edward said he was born in 1901 which would make him about 104 at the time this book was written and Bella is only 16 so clearly Bella and Edward should not be dating.

5. Edward is sooooo hot yet no girl in school has snapped him up or stalked him?

6. EDWARD IS CREEPY–he reads people’s minds and he follows you everywhere you go–in the real world, his azz would have had a restraining order issued against him.

7. Edward treated Bella like she was a possession. In fact, he IS fighting the urge to eat her, but that doesn’t give him the right to be throwing her around. ONe time, he threw her on the sofa and his family thought he was trying to eat her (not the good way) but cannibal like way so they came in (NOT TO SAVE HER), but to get a piece of the action. I definitely wouldn’t want to date someone who wanted to literally eat me like a piece of pork chop.

What did I like about the book?

1. Unlike others,
