I liked this book. It took me a while to get into it, but once I did, I could not put it down. I thought it was well written, with a very very dry humor. It made me think about an entirely different perspective on life- instead of planning for adventure, to simply live and let adventure happen.

this is not the greatest resource. a lot of the websites are no longer active, and a lot are not really geared to kids. I was pretty disappointed.

What a lovely book. It is a quick read, but really captures a relationship between friends and books. I loved it.

This is a wonderful memoir. It made me want to follow Trillin in how wonderfully he loved his wife.

This was a very entertaining and illuminating book. I have not read very many books about Native Americans in modern times, and this book really gives some insight as to what life is like on reservations. It also is a great coming of age story.

This was such an interesting way to tell a story- through an accordion. It was a good book and a fun read, but I was left wanting for a bit more meatiness.

This was a fun book to read, especially in the heat of summer. I have read far more humorous books though.

I adore Anne Tyler and generally devour her books. This is good, but not her best.

It took me a while to get into the flow of this book about a mother and daughter, but wow. The descriptions of the town, sexuality, relationships between women and women and men are phenomenal.

This memoir is good and revealing, and I learned a lot about maniac-depressive illness. I thought it was a bit too long, and that it would have been much improved if the other side of the story had been told concurrently. Bits and pieces were missing, as though she was not ready to truly tell us everything.

I enjoyed this book. I loved the recipes. I thought it was a bit formulaic and trite, but it is a perfect beach book.

Ooh. This was good. It took me a while to get started on it- the beginning is a little slow and I wondered what the point of the book was going to be- but it very lovingly told the story of a hermaphrodite born into a difficult world= and probably a place in the world where acceptance is hardest to find. I was thoroughly absorbed.
