Sure cure for insomnia
Remember that student-published "literature/poetry" journal from your college days? Overwrought "deep" symbolism, so obvious and clumsy it hurts? Well, if you liked that, you'll LOVE this! I stuck with this book for 100 painful pages hoping that, sooner or later, something would happen that wouldn't have me cringing at...

A very intriguing read.
This is one of those books that is quite brilliantly written but leaves you thinking. In that sense, it is also hard to write a review for, as I still feel this book running around my head. I suppose that means it's a great book, which I am inclined to believe.I finished Waking the Moon some time away and realised I ha...

This is a terrific book--I didn't want it to end! The narration of the heroine Sweeney, in her loneliness and insecurity, remembering her lost love, will break your heart.

Great plot but cumbersome writing = disappointing
I had great expectations for this book, as there are so many good reviews out on it. I found it to be very disappointing. The plot was very imaginative and could have been exciting. But the writing was overly verbose without being engaging. I never felt for any of the characters despite the author's obvious attempt to ...

Tedious
I wanted to like this book, I really did since the plot idea is wonderful. But, and it's a big but, it's just tedious. A lot of readers loved it, which is fine, but trying to figure out 'who', the mixture of first-person and third-person narrative, was just the start of being tiresome. I did finish it but I had to push...

Insightful!
Jol De Rosnay's book is a gold mine of provocative ideas about the evolution of mankind, economics, politics and more. It pulls together information from organic chemistry, computer technology, chaos theory and a slew of unrelated fields to argue for a less egocentric approach to business and government. In the process...

SHAM is a SHAM
The self-help industry can use a consumer protection expert to guide people who need help to make better judgements. The author exposes much that needs exposing. However, his angry outbursts and proclivity to leap wildly to conclusions is as flawed in his book as in the books he so dispises. A review of this exploitati...

A SHAM in itself
This was a funny book but I was disappointed because Salerno who seems to pride himself on facts finds it difficult to find any real criticism of the self=help movement - even though this is the premise of his whole book.

An eye-opening book for those entranced by sham artists
In this book, Salerno unashamedly takes on the "self-help and actualization movement" - or "SHAM", as the acronym conveniently spells out. The first part of the book includes chapters about Dr. Phil, Tony Robbins, and other self-help celebrities - though curiously not Oprah Winfrey. If you're a fan of any of these cele...

Out of tune
It is durable and cute, but if you are going to buy your child an instrument to start teaching them music, wouldn't you want it to be in tune? This is why I give it 1 star.
