Readers Going Nuts About Reviews!
In my blog of February 17 I mentioned that Winter Reading 2009 registration had topped the 5,000 mark. Completion of the book logs is also beating all records. I have also noticed that the proportion of completers who have gone that little extra step to use the back of the log to write a brief review is higher this year than others.What a pleasure it is to reflect on what you have just read and to share your opinion with others! The high volume of responses makes it impossible for me to publish every review, but I am taking them at random and putting them up as I can. Your opinions are clearly of importance to you. I hope to publish as many of them as possible.
Here is an assortment of some of the briefer comments, both favorable and unfavorable. I hope that you enjoy reading what other people think, and that this gives you some ideas for your own reading:
- "I highly recommend ALL of Anne perry's works."
- "Baldacci should be a political analyst and an economic advisor to our President."
- Dark Summer by Iris Johansen - "Not one of her best. Loose plot - Kept expecting aliens to land."
- Next by Michael Crichton - "Humorous but thought provoking. Highly recommended."
- The Bevelved Mirror by Wanda Willis - "Reflections of an Appalachian family written by the author who lived it."
- Safe by James Patterson and Smoke Screen by Sandra Brown - " ...greta for anyone who loves mystery and suspense stories."
- Doris Day - "a long read but very informative!"
- Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity by Bill O'Reilly - "a great book and advice American youth could take!"
- Step On A Crack by James Patterson - " Domestic terrorist attack mystery at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City. Easy reading with anticipation for answer of who terrorists are. It kept me reading it, but I've read other more interesting stories."
