Perfect for that fence sitting young adult
My daughter has been struggling with the Gospel and she was in a bad mood. Wouldn't go to seminary...ordered this in hopes...she listened to one CD after I told her to "just listen to one, only one..." She listened to the whole collection in one afternoon and evening!! And I could hear her laughing through her ...

Ok
It's a textbook, fine, but I'm getting so tired of unbound texts. This product, like many others, requires a binder. As one who prefers hardcovers to ebooks this seems to be a neverending frustration with collegiate required readings. Do you hear me, manufacturers? Bind your books!<br /><br />The plus side: afforda...

The ebook is cheaper, yes, but I find it easier to read, reference, and study with classic books. It's been proven information is better retained when read NOT on a screen also,for example I don't skim as much when reading paper pages.

Just what I hoped for
Novels are subjective so I am not going to review the story itself here, I mostly use goodreads for that.<br /><br />What is worth 5 stars to me is the condition of this first edition. This is a very nostalgic book for me and the fact that it is the 30th anniversary this year, I was very excited to find it for purchas...

Not impressed with the physical copy received
This is not a review of the book but rather the format. Not only is it huge, like 7x10 inches, the printing is like that of a textbook with double columns on each page. I lost immediate interest in reading it as it is too cumbersome to fit in a purse and the text is so tiny, it's not an any-day-by-the-pool read eithe...

Easy, predictable, and a bit weak/girly for my tastes
3 stars because the writing was decently done but the story itself felt lacking, perhaps because of my own disconnect with the modern character, Caroline. Her feelings and choices were made to seem daring and thrilling when really, they were quite predictable and, I hate to say it but...lame. I did not feel the urgen...

Not the best Langdon adventure but not the worst. There were a couple holes in the story, seemingly important characters that are abandoned and left with no resolution, and the actual plot had very few puzzles. We actually travelled from point A to point B with very little conflict. The overall &#34;mystery&#34; was ...

Larry Pinkerton’s autobiographical stories were an absolute delight to read.

Missing Pages
This is a really good book to study the Torah. I was wondering if anyone else is missing pages. In Parashas Bereishis, my book is missing pages 21 - 23. That’s a little disappointing because it’s such a good book.
