5 | Absolutely Love This Book | We have been taking ceramics classes at a local community center and this book makes me impatient to start up again this winter! It is filled with so many inspiring ideas and does such a great job of walking you through the ideas as step by step projects. I don't know that I would copy any of them completely, but the... | [] | 1631598252 | 1631598252 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,601,564,634,613 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Ideas Book for Ceramics | We have been doing ceramics classes at a local community center and love inspiration for new projects. I have just started to carve a little more into my pieces, but this book opened our eyes to a ton of possibilities that would be faster and easier than the bas reliefs I have been making. I love that they go into th... | [] | 163159849X | 163159849X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,601,316,882,296 | 0 | false |
5 | Good Intro to Paint Projects | We have recently discovered pour painting and this is out second book on the subject, although this one goes into other techniques. It is project based and gives ideas for things to do with your kids which is nice. It is very well illustrated and has primed us for a few art nights. I think I like the other book we g... | [] | 1633228541 | 1633228541 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,601,316,499,615 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Story and Great Resource for Spanish Learners | I have a great library of Spanish language children's books from this publisher and feel blessed. This one in particular has great verb tense variation and an intermediate vocabulary. It is especially good for forage foods that will push food vocabulary.<br /><br />The story is nice and I love that the resolution is ... | [] | 8416733910 | 8416733910 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,598,630,742,121 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Book for Spanish Learners | Such a nice, quirky story to learn Spanish to. I love this series of books in Spanish language and feel fortunate to have a great learning library of these books. This book is a great for a beginner to low intermediate reader. It has a good mix of verb tenses and good reinforcement of vocabulary. I will definitely ... | [] | 8416733872 | 8416733872 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,598,453,892,037 | 1 | false |
5 | Huge Hit! | This book and $25 at Michaels and we had a great afternoon of making some pretty impressive art panels. It is super easy to make some very impressive patterns, but it is a little messy. We used up all our canvases and paint and everyone is looking forward to getting more. Super easy, reasonably cheap and very enterta... | [] | 163322824X | 163322824X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,597,677,753,802 | 0 | false |
4 | A Quaint Picture Book with a Small Plot | So we have a wonderful Spanish Learning library for our four middle grade Spanish learners and I feel wonderfully blessed to have a good library of children's books from Cuenta de Luz publishing. I was super excited to get another reviewer book to add to it. Imagine my surprise when I paged through it and there was n... | [] | 8416733791 | 8416733791 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,596,670,039,020 | 0 | false |
4 | A Great Find For Us | We have a couple vegetarians that will be moving off to college in a few years. This book looked like a perfect way to start preparing them for life on their own. I love that there is a good variety of recipes here that are for the most part pretty easy. Somethings might be a little advanced for a starter apartment ... | [] | 1646119193 | 1646119193 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,596,163,731,216 | 0 | false |
5 | Very interesting Memoir | I am so impressed with who Mr Rogers is, and this memoir only reinforces my respect for him. But this book also opens my eyes to so much that I was missing in the world when I was a kid watching the show. Or even now for that matter, I finished this book the week after George Floyd's killing in my home town and it br... | [] | 1948226707 | 1948226707 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,591,723,243,874 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Book, Great insite to the Phillipines | I would have to say that the biggest thing I came away from this book is a better understanding of Duarte's Phillipines and their draconian war on drugs. It is an great backdrop for this family drama. The writing is great and I am recommending it for book club. Really enjoyed it! | [] | 0525554912 | 0525554912 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,591,669,046,222 | 0 | false |
5 | Another Great One from Heinrich | I have always been amazed at Berndt Heinrich and his natural curiosity. I only wish that I came up with, and more importantly followed up with the kinds of questions that he has. Often his books have a strange order to them and this one is no different. It goes over the year by year experiences that he has with tree... | [] | 1328604411 | 1328604411 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,588,199,571,801 | 1 | false |
5 | What you would expect from Dummies | Before the Coronavirus hit, we were looking at getting rid of some stuff through ebay. I have stumbled through the process a couple of times over the years, but figured this would be a great reference if I was going to move a few dozen items over a few months.<br /><br />Well it did everything I wanted and more.

5 | Great Book for the Beginning Spanish learner | I like to read books like this to help reinforce my Spanish. I find that these mid grade readers are perfect, although they are sometimes full of slang and swearing, so my Spanish is strong in the vocabulary of Middle School Angst. This book is better than more in that there is not much slang and the writing is clean... | [] | 132852681X | 132852681X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,526,288,437 | 1 | false |
5 | Interesting Read About Middle School Community | This is a great book, and a great follow up to The Truth About Jellyfish which was passed around most of our household. We have three in middle school right now so it hit a chord for both parents and kids. It has a very authentic feel to the Middle Grade experience and the characters are well developed and rich as th... | [] | 0316380881 | 0316380881 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,524,296,061 | 0 | false |
5 | Probably Our Most Helpful Recent Cookbook | I have to say that out of all the cookbooks we have gotten in the last year, this one has inspired the most cooking. This has a decent amount of photographs, which is what really inspires me, but it also has great ideas. We went a couple of months with picking new appetizer ideas for our weekend meals and we never ra... | [] | 1641529466 | 1641529466 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,523,697,910 | 0 | false |
5 | A Great Book Refound | We lost this book until Covid-19 forced us to go through all the kids rooms and I'm glad this turned up. It is a perfect little lakeside escape to make us remember that summer is coming. It may not be what we are hoping for, but this really brought back cabin memories. It is a cute little mystery that read like a fl... | [] | 0374306427 | 0374306427 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,505,081,892 | 0 | false |
4 | Great Ideas, Not Well Illustrated | I am definitely one of those who need to have pictures on recipes to give me an idea of what I am aiming for and to inspire me to try a recipte. Unfortunately, this book has very few photos, but it does have a lot of good content. The very first thing that really peaked our interest was the idea of grilled peaches. ... | [] | 1646116992 | 1646116992 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,499,203,410 | 1 | false |
5 | Great Adventure | I used to read through a lot of these books with my kids, but we are starting to age out of the genre. I'm glad I got a reviewer copy of this one, as it is a fantastic read and world.

5 | Very Modern Retelling | This book's setting comes right out of the newsstand. It starts with an introduction to the Amazons, but quickly switches to the Syrian refugee crisis, refugee camps, immigration and child trafficking. It is all current and the story has a progressive tone to it, where Diana's adopted family is working in the field t... | [] | 1401286453 | 1401286453 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,486,310,545 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Graphic Novel | Strange that this is from DC but really does not contain any superheros. It is actually just about a clever but handicapped girl who is making sense of her life after a tragic incident that left her paralyzed. She has to navigate a new relationship with an old friend as well as new people and herself. Throw a mystery ... | [] | 1401290663 | 1401290663 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,147,505,133 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Overall Coverage for Backyard Pollinator Habitat Garden | I love the idea of a victory garden for pollinators, everyone has a chance to make a small contribution that could help turn the tide of a war. It is a great analogy and a great idea. I also pretty much completely love the way the book comes together. It is wonderfully illustrated and it has great overall content and... | [] | 1631597507 | 1631597507 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,587,061,696,330 | 1 | false |
5 | Great New Content for Fans of the Show | I enjoyed the series and was glad to see that it lives on in at least comic form. The comics are true to the characters and storyline and this little story could shoehorn anywhere in the shows run. It is a simple storyline, the troop goes to a weekend wrestlefest and runs into another group of women wrestling with a ... | [] | 1684054737 | 1684054737 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,586,978,102,863 | 0 | false |
5 | Nice Beginner Book for Kids | At first brush, I was a little disappointed with this book as it seemed that the bulk of it was a cut rate bird guide, but I endeavored to read it cover to cover. By the time I got to the field guide section, I was impressed with the information that was in it, but still had trepidation about the identification sectio... | [] | 076036608X | 076036608X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,586,795,173,131 | 0 | false |
4 | Whoa, A Deep Philosophical Dive into Dogginess | I have to admit I was rather surprised at what this book ended up being. It is a very deep existential look into dogs and where they fit into our culture. Along the way there are a lot of interesting facts such as Trump is the only president ever to not be a dog owner, which may make him uniquely the way he is. Also,... | [] | 1509537287 | 1509537287 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,586,281,881,782 | 2 | false |
4 | Decent coverage of healthy and sustainable eating | It took me a while to get through this book, mostly because there were few surprises and I have seen this content a number of places. It seems like a very solid book on the subject but I have read most all of it before. I think everyone should be aware of what is in here. I think we should all think a little more ab... | [] | 1623173914 | 1623173914 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,582,318,444,983 | 0 | false |
5 | Great New Zealand Guide | The DK Eyewitness guides are perfect for New Zealand. It does justice to the islands with great illustrations and maps.

There are some but not exhaustive... | [] | 0241365414 | 0241365414 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,582,317,736,148 | 0 | false |
5 | Part Mythbusters, Part Memoir | This has all the makings for a great History Channel special, a great historical event, an engaging mystery and the personal story of the researcher who puts the pieces together.

We even went to Charleston t... | [] | 1524744158 | 1524744158 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,582,317,313,736 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Guide to the Big Apple | I love the DK Eyewitness guides and it is a perfect fit for New York! The maps, especially the birds eye maps work great in Manhatten and the content is perfect in scope and interests for me. I often find myself flipping through these before traveling to the location and this one is no different.

4 | If Ever a Cookbook Needed Photos | I love getting inspiring cookbooks but I feel out of my element with this one. I guess I don't know Mediterranian cuisine well enough to be able to picture things. We flipped through it looking for inspiration for supper last night and ended up googling dishes so we could get an idea about what they were.

4 | Kids Had Mixed Reviews | Our family burned through the Wings of Fire series so this one sounded like a sure hit. And for our daughter it kind of was. But the boys were less excited about it. Usually I read things like this with the kids as a shared experience but the book was lost before it got back to me. The basic criticism was not enough... | [] | 1250181070 | 1250181070 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,580,759,969,263 | 0 | false |
3 | Our Kids Loved the First of These, but Love is Wearing Off | We got the first book of this type a couple of years ago and our kids really liked it and worked through it in a couple groups and alone. They had just been playing a little of D&D and that might have been part of the appeal.

4 | Good Basic Air Fryer Cookbook | We are not trying Keto so much as we are trying to find more and better ways to use our inherited air fryer. I like the Keto angle though, it has brought up a number of good ideas.

5 | Nothing New for Me But Eyeopening in When Seen Together | I guess I have heard pretty much everything in this book and never been too alarmed, but when everything is brought together into one narrative, it is a little scary. If you have not been following privacy issues, this is a great primer of the complete history of surveilance and the balance of privacy versus protectio... | [] | 1683962826 | 1683962826 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,579,793,006,291 | 0 | false |
5 | Not a How-to, More an Inspiration Book | This is a beautiful and inspiring book, but not really a teaching book. It goes more into the lifestyle and aesthetics with rich illustrations and personal stories. It is a fantastic coffee table book and perfect for getting my dreams moving. I have wanted to revamp an old Casita or a Scamp, or a shipping container ... | [] | 157965813X | 157965813X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,579,713,109,218 | 1 | false |
5 | Great City Guide to Lisbon | Unfortunately Portugal has fallen off our countries to visit for now, but I loved the introduction that this book gave to Lisbon.

5 | Great Painting Tutorial Material | I think this is a great idea. It gets you right to the rendering part of water coloring. You can completely skip the step of sketching and laying out a composition and lets you focus on the rendering of trees and water etcetera.

5 | Still my favorite Country Guides Despite downgrades | I have always loved the DK Eyewitness guides, and it is the perfect guide for Costa Rican daydreaming and trip visualization.

They may not be exhaustive in travel logistics, but they ... | [] | 0241368812 | 0241368812 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,579,621,958,545 | 0 | false |
5 | Great High Level Guide to France | I still am a little surprised about how good Fodor's has gotten over the last few years. Their guides are more colorful with more good photos and higher quality paper and maps. This guide to France is not different.

5 | Perhaps the First Book to Inspire a Trip Purchase | We knew of the joys of Thailand, but never really put it near the top of our travel list until we go this book.

It is filled with color photos and a great array of sites and res... | [] | 1640971971 | 1640971971 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,936,002,622 | 0 | false |
4 | Maybe not for Dorm Life, but great for first time off campus | I got this hoping that it would be perfect for our son who is heading to college after completing his Army National Guard training. He has some basic kitchen skills, but being on base made us realize that this will not be all the great while he is living in a dorm. He will have food service for at least the first yea... | [] | 1641529385 | 1641529385 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,599,990,739 | 0 | false |
5 | Perfect Guide for a couple days in Milan | We should have an overnight in Milan next summer and this is the perfectly scoped and sized book for us.

5 | Another Impressive Guide from Fodors | I have been so impressed with all the Fodor's guides we have gotten this year. I have to say that Fodor's was lower on my list when I was thinking of getting a guide, but they are now fully on my radar. I would say that this is the scope and content that I expect from Fodors. It is a huge country wide guide at 784 p... | [] | 1640971823 | 1640971823 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,582,805,902 | 2 | false |
4 | Good but Basic Slow Cooker Recipes | This is a decent cookbook for those like me who are trying to find more uses for the slow cooker and live in a vegetarian family.

5 | Love These Young DC Graphic Novels | This book is especially good for young girls who are transitioning from girl to young woman and not really feeling like they fit in to either. It definitely shows that they are not alone and uses a great role model, wonder woman, who shows very human questioning and questionable judgement but makes it through. The st... | [] | 1401291112 | 1401291112 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,581,835,413 | 0 | false |
5 | Perfect City Guide | For the most part, I love the scope of these 25 Best city guides, although for Hong Kong, perhaps you could have a little more.

It is well illustrated and thanks to the great... | [] | 1640972013 | 1640972013 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,509,305,352 | 0 | false |
5 | Unique Focus on Travel | My partner is vegetarian not vegan, but the struggles are similar. We have traveled to Colombia and Mexico City and found the culture challengingly meat centric. Especially in the Amazon, it was down to just rice, bean and plantains. I really appreciate this book for two things. First, the planning section is great f... | [] | 1788687582 | 1788687582 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,507,879,369 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Intro into a New Green Lantern Line | I have really loved these new DC graphic novels. They have had some great back stories and introduced a much more ethnically and gender diverse world of comics to this young generation. I hope that they are appreciated for what they are. They have all been pretty well illustrated and written, as is this one. Also t... | [] | 1401283551 | 1401283551 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,506,522,040 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Triva Questions | We used one of the books in this series to pass a couple hours on a recent car trip and everyone was glad to see that we got another volume. The questions are varied so that even in a theme that you think you know nothing about, you have a fair chance to get some. Many of the questions are multiple choice which helps... | [] | 1646116283 | 1646116283 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,432,909,040 | 0 | false |
5 | Perfectly Scoped Guide for Brussels/Bruge | These Fodor's Best 25 City guides are absolutely perfect.

5 | A Great Guide to Costa Rica | I think I now owe Fodor's and apology. I have had a long standing impression that they are stodgy, funless references of lodging and restaurants, more like a AAA travel guide than other guides, but especially lately, I have found them to be among the top for great photos and visual design. I used to reserve those tho... | [] | 164097184X | 164097184X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,578,076,223,471 | 2 | false |
5 | Great Bucket List Dream Inspiration but Large Scope Makes it Less of a Guide | This is an absolutely beautiful guide and I can't help but pick it up and page through it. It has inspired a hundred daydreams, but to have a single book for all of South America makes it more of a coffee table book than a travel guide.

4 | Great Entry Level Book of Projects | I was really expecting a more involved book and projects, but this shows how you can use the ideas of screen printing on a quick and easy level. These are not four color photos transfers, they are simple sihlouettes that are simple and elegant. You don't need a huge screen printing set up, just a small screen and a c... | [] | 178221724X | 178221724X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,577,648,090,573 | 0 | false |
5 | A Perfect Intro to Krakow | This book was perfectly scoped to introduce us to the city. To be honest we only will have one full day so we did not need too much information, but we did need to know that we wouldn't miss anything that would be heartbreaking to find out later. I have really come to love the 25 best city series from Fodor's. It is... | [] | 1640972021 | 1640972021 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,577,647,820,091 | 0 | false |
4 | Great Intro to Food Prepping | With the New Year coming up, we were hoping to be a little more healthy and financially wise. I thought this would be a great idea for keeping us to our nutrition goals and I really think it will be. We have tested a couple days and it went ok so we are ready to scale to full weeks. I do have to say that my partner i... | [] | 1641527781 | 1641527781 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,577,647,545,442 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Guide to Vienna | I have come to love this Fodor's Cities 25 best series. Usually I like DK eyewitness guides, but Fodor's has come up with a winning series here. The scope of this book is perfect. It only hits the highlights of Vienna. It is filled with beautiful photos and maps. The content and the travel basics are very good. ... | [] | 1640972072 | 1640972072 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,577,600,110,410 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Collection of Trivia Questions | This was a great collection of trivia questions. We used it to get through a long holiday car trip and even within categories that some people were weak on, there was enough variation to make all sections fun. There were also some panlindromic sections that were more mind puzzles than trivia. It was all good. We did... | [] | 1641528613 | 1641528613 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,577,586,744,330 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Guide, Full of Travel Inspirations | We have discovered Central America in the last few years and have been loving Costa Rica and Mexico and hope to expand into some other countries.

5 | Absolutely the best guide for London | We have a number of guides to London and a ton of travel guides in general.

There are great maps and birds eye drawings ... | [] | 024136874X | 024136874X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,576,905,754,645 | 0 | false |
4 | Great Reference for Traveling to Italy | I have always thought of Fodors as more a reference than a book I would want to read from cover to cover. We got both this and the DK eyewitness guide to Italy and DK is far better at getting you excited about taking a trip somewhere and Fodors is better for finding a hotel in an area you know you are going to.

4 | Good Intro to our Air Fryer | We inherited an Air Fryer without any really idea what we would do with it. This book did a couple things. One it gave some inspirational recipes and it also gave some decent technique tips of how to use it. It is strongly meat heavy in the recipes which was unfortunate for a mostly vegetarian household. But we jumped... | [] | 164611017X | 164611017X | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,576,648,870,942 | 1 | false |
5 | Great Introduction to the Craft | This is a perfect gift for a young or beginning jewelry maker.

4 | Nice Intro to Apex, Sadly Outdated at Publishing | This is a very hard genre of book. It should almost be considered a yearbook rather than a reference because they always give a review of the last year or two and will never be able to be timely. In this case it is a great intro to the game, but all these games update constantly, so you are producing a book that will... | [] | 0760367221 | 0760367221 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,576,647,618,231 | 0 | false |
5 | A Classic | It didn't take long to realize that I read this years and years ago. Also, I remembered how much I enjoyed the adventure of learning it told. I didn't even flinch at the thought of reading it again and I think I loved it even more as an adult as I did when I was a kid.

5 | Great Intro Guide to Shanghai | I really love these 25 Best city guides from Fodors. In fact, I am a little shocked that these are from Fodor which I usually associate with far less spectacular designs and images.

5 | Great Guide to Ireland, Everything I Wanted | I usually get guides to get myself excited for a location and that is what I was hoping for with this one.

5 | Perfect Intro To Dubai! | We have seen Dubai come up on Groupon and Bargain deal pages and have wondered if it might make a good new stamp in our passports.

5 | Another Winner from DK | I love DK Eyewitness guides. They are so perfect for introducing you to and area and getting excited about your trip.

It is not overly deep, but they really give you a great survey of ... | [] | 0241368731 | 0241368731 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,575,862,427,958 | 0 | false |
5 | Wait, this is a Fodor's guide? | I respect Fodors for what it is, but this seems very different. It is far more visual than I am used to with lots of full color photos and maps. And it seems far more aesthetically designed than I am used to. I tend to think reference book when I think Fodors and this is far more a beautiful and daydream inspiring. ... | [] | 1640972196 | 1640972196 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,575,861,834,060 | 0 | false |
5 | Great High School Graphic Novel | My kids love these kinds of books and this is one of the best I have seen in the genre.

5 | Great Young Reader Book! | We got a reviewer copy of this book and it quickly got misplaced.

5 | More than I thought I wanted to know | My mom was always a huge fan of Barbie, and I am a cultural history fan, so this seemed like a great read.

5 | Love the beautiful clean design | This book might be more beautiful than informative. Nearly every two page spread is a piece of art. The illustrations are very graphic images on a white background which keeps the pages clean and the images just pop. If you are used to DK, expect more tightly designed pages in their style. It is an absolute delight... | [] | 1465482512 | 1465482512 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,574,038,750,323 | 0 | false |
5 | Great Tool for Spanish Learners | I don't believe I will ever forget the word hormiga now. This is a wonderful way to grow and reinforce Spanish vocabulary and conjugation.

4 | Interesting Premise | This was an interesting dystopic story with a weird scifi premise. My partner was not too taken by it, but I and one of our kids were pretty well engaged in it.

As a bird watcher, I was a little disappointed to find that the missin... | [] | 0316450928 | 0316450928 | AGLQQCIS5V6EGUCS5SSNHWZHQM6Q | 1,573,103,434,931 | 1 | false |
5 | A Good Grade School Primer On Hubble | This is truly one of mankinds greatest achievements to date.

5 | Perfect Inspirational for the DIY remodeler | Just kidding, but it is very inspirational. These are some of the most beautiful architectural spaces in the world.

5 | A Wonderful Surprise | OK, I got a reviewer copy of this, and I swore that it said it was a graphic novel.

4 | Quick but Forgetable Read | My partner read this book and it was a quick read with a big twist ending, but even a short time after reading it, she does not really remember much about it.

3 | Oof, Instantly Obsolete | I feel for the authors, the change from Chapter one to Chapter two instantly made a good amount of the information obsolete.

3 | OK but very formulaic | This was a very formulaic plot, kind of Harry Potter meets the X-men in a not great way. It did have a good plot twist but probably not enough to save the book for us.

5 | If anything, even better than his earlier books | This book falls directly in my conservation interests and hobbies.

5 | Quick Read, Interesting Story | This story is structures strangely, it interweaves four taxi rides the main character takes which both reflect on her as much as they contrast between the four rides.

5 | A Very Enjoyable Read | I have read a lot of PCT accounts and I'm amazed at how similar the experience is for so many.

4 | Full of Content but Light on Inspiring Photos | This is kind of the book I would expect from Fodors - It is chock full of logistic information, but a little light in photos.
