But this unique book covers the art of Lincoln's storytelling. It's a treasure chest of Abraham Lincoln's unique stories with lots of good points and morals for all ages.
President Lincoln was incredibly well-grounded, respectful, and practical. He was also an avid reader, and, in turn, an avid storyteller. This is the side of President Lincoln that appeals most to me. This is the side of President Lincoln that is covered in this book.
Although President Lincoln lived generations ago, his stories confront humanity, and therefore transcend the years, and can still be applied to modern life today. That's the beauty of this book. President Lincoln's stories, and Terry Sprouse's, writing style go very well together.
This book is written for all ages. Each chapter has a summary called "Lincoln's Lessons." So even if you completely missed the point of a story, you could sneak a peak at the end of each chapter and review the main points. ...more

It defin"Exchanged" will keep you reading this book from beginning to end, and throughly engrossed at all points in between. This book is a real gem. It definitely has the 'Wow!' factor. It's extremely carefully crafted. Every detail is in it's correct place and order. The meticulous writing is absolutely excellent. The beginning enthralls the reader, and the intricately successful storyline heavily entertains throughout the rest of the book.
The elf and fey are the fantasy characters that are portrayed in this story. They have very human characteristics such as loyalty, honesty, trickery, and struggles. The same characters portray characteristics of fantasy characters such as dreamscapes, precious artifacts, and quests. The authors used their fantastic writing talents to combine all of these elements into a super interesting book. It's a very fascinating read!
"Nostalgia" is a mental trip to Jamaica. It's a much more in-depth experience than spending a week long vacation there. This story invites me to hang "Nostalgia" is a mental trip to Jamaica. It's a much more in-depth experience than spending a week long vacation there. This story invites me to hang out with true Jamaicans, and to learn about the culture, and meet the people first hand. I was fully immersed in the Jamaican culture. The average tourist can only thoroughly visit this special place thru reading this book.
This memoir is a great start to understand the unbelievable strength of the Jamaican people. High standards for proper behavior, cleanliness, respect for oneself, and respect for a fellow person are hallmarks of this school, and the Jamaican culture in general. Firm grounding is taught in the schools, and thoroughly described in this book. Although the setting is a microcosm, Jamaican culture and society permeate the school's walls and functions. The reader truly experiences Jamaican culture at its finest.
I highly recommend this book. It was a wonderful, easy, relaxing, and interesting read.
This is the second Ju Ephraim book I've chosen to read. Ju Ephraim does it again! Her first book was an absolute sensation, and "I Will Follow To EterThis is the second Ju Ephraim book I've chosen to read. Ju Ephraim does it again! Her first book was an absolute sensation, and "I Will Follow To Eternity And Beyond" is just as amazing. I love her work!! She combines her many talents to spin a great tale of romance, and love, that leaves the reader breathless. Her many talents include, but are not limited to, a mastery of writing, editing, and very intricate storytelling.
The background is perfectly set for a steamy hot read. That's the kind of story I love the most, especially one by Ju Ephraim. The characters and the plot draw the reader into the story with such intensity and focus that I forgot I was reading a story. I thought I was inside the story, watching the plot unfold before me.
I highly recommend this book to any reader who wants a wild ride. Although this story is the specific genre of historical fiction, the excellent writing allows this book to transcend that specific genre and be open to avid readers of any genre. ...more

It's brooding, it's twisting, it's turning. The really scary part is that it's also about our not-too-distant future. This story is fiction, but it reliably and eerily parallels our current society. The first few pages are intensely gripping, and the extremely well written. The suspense starts as the story is just beginning to develop. How fun!!
"The Inhibited" is a creepy peek into our fictional future. Who knows? The author might be right on target, and many parts of this story might become reality. The story's that realistic and hits very very close to home. Who knows what the future holds for us. It's a story the reader should think about and process. Laws and ways change, and this book is what our very near future very well might look like - music, writing, and creative expression are banned. Chance favors the prepared.
I highly recommend this book. Dystopia is not my preferred genre, but I definitely prefer this book. "The Inhibited" is an excellent example of this genre.
J. Saman does it again!! "Start Over" is another great romance novel by J. Saman. This is the second J. Saman book I've read, and I loved it just as m J. Saman does it again!! "Start Over" is another great romance novel by J. Saman. This is the second J. Saman book I've read, and I loved it just as much as the first book, "Start Again". Luke Walker is a sexy guy, and although I will never meet him in person, I love to live vicariously thru J. Saman's stories. They're so interesting, and so delicious, that I look forward to her next novel. I know I'm going to love whatever sexy guy she dreams up next.
Ivy Green (love that name btw) and Luke Walker are having a tumultuous romance. I feel as if I should give them advice because I view them as my friends. They're my friends the way Ivy Green was accepted into the circle of friends at the engagement party - immediate and unconditional acceptance, no strings attached. The biggest priority is to just have fun. Interestingly, the book is written from both points of view - Ivy's and Luke's. I also appreciate how their relationship develops throughout the book. Relationships aren't easy, and this one is no exception to that rule. The reader is taken on quite a ride in this book.
I highly recommend this book. It's a real crowd pleaser. J. Saman is an excellent writer, and "Start Over" is an excellent book.

"Mystery of Immediately, surprising and interesting events drew me into the story. It's lighthearted, yet tense. It's dramatic, and very interesting. "Mystery of the Egyptian Temple" is a great children's mystery. It introduces the young reader to lots of very interesting details of ancient Egypt. The plot follows the main characters throughout the book, and in and out of various uniquely ancient Egyptian situations. This story's quite an adventure that's a page turner because I absolutely want to know what happens next. I've never lived in ancient Egypt, and this book opened up a whole new world for me - a world that I really enjoyed visiting while reading this book.
This book is extremely well written. I enjoyed the story, and I also enjoyed reading a well-edited book. I highly recommend it.

It's a very entertaining read with very likable characters. It brings Los Angeles into a whole new light for me - a romantic one. Imani and Braxton are a couple of young lovebirds who run into some obstacles to their relationship. These obstacles are significant and very real. They are a caring mother who will do anything it takes to keep her kids safe and free from harm. The storyline contains lots of dilemmas that are solved in bits and pieces throughout the book.

She's This is the second Callista Cox story that I'm reading. I love her style. She's light-hearted. She's strong. She always provides plenty of sex. She's "tender, soft, and satisfying". Those are the author’s own words that I pulled from the story. She's incredibly suspenseful. Not just in a sexy way, because she's that too, but in a high drama type of way. Sienna experiences a real kidnapping and that adds a whole new dimension of drama. Yikes!
This story contains lots and lots of well-earned drama. It has lots and lots of unexpected twists and turns. Sienna is a strong independent woman who has great sex with whoever she wants to. When drama takes over the story, then she'll do what needs to be done in order to make things right again.
“The Kidnapper’s Touch” is a fantastic new story from a brand new author! It was an easy read and very entertaining.

I've often heard about stewardesses getting lots of sex in lots of different cities, but I always thought it was an overinflated urban myth. This story is super fun to read because it draws upon that urban myth, and fills it out into a short story. In my opinion, this story could be a lot longer, and I would have much more sexy material to read. ;)
The ending was unexpected, which makes the story even more exciting. I'm so glad Sienna stood up for herself.

This book took me to a place that I never thought I would go. It's the breeding and making of a sex worker. These poor women really try hard to make the best of their lives, no matter how insignificant they are made to feel. It's a part of society that many people are too scared to even look at. I'm too scared too. In this case, I'm able to take a peek inside without leaving the comforts of my home. This story is a real eye-opener and thought-provoker.
Ashley Pullen certainly found her groove in writing this type of Erotica. This book took me to a place that I never knew existed. It might not exist, and I certainly hope not, but it could very well exist. Great books have that quality. They introduce you to new places and new concepts that are way beyond the reach of your everyday life.
This story is definitely Erotica. I saw it more as a child turned woman who is making the best of what life has dished out for her. I highly recommend this story for anyone who likes to be socially and emotionally challenged. It'll do that to you. ...more
An orphaned teen... wow! Too old to be adopted. Too young to be an adult. Too much emotional baggage from losing both parents. That's a sad situation.An orphaned teen... wow! Too old to be adopted. Too young to be an adult. Too much emotional baggage from losing both parents. That's a sad situation. Somehow I'm not surprised that fantasy enters into this scenario. But it's not the type of fantasy that's just in Aurora’s head. It's real, and it's hunting her. Scary. Lots and lots of well-earned drama. Lots of unexpected twists and turns.
“Haunted Essence” is a fantastic new book from a brand new author! It was an easy read and very entertaining. My expectations have been set very high for the second installment of this series.
I love to read sex books. This book is a smorgasbord of sex stories. That makes it even more interesting. The writing is terrific, and fully explores I love to read sex books. This book is a smorgasbord of sex stories. That makes it even more interesting. The writing is terrific, and fully explores and encompasses a very difficult story while providing loads of detail.
The premise for this book is so simple that I'm surprised I didn't come up with it. It's a party of people eating dinner at a restaurant. Each of them discusses their previous sexual liaisons. Each story has my full attention, whether or not it's my preferred genre. That's because it's simply delicious to be a fly on that wall!!!
The author tackles Erotica, but Erotica has so many unique subgenres that it is really difficult for an author to fully explore and relate each subgenre in an interesting fashion. I'm really amazed at the author's ability to diversify in such a way. The reader gets a solid dose of many different kinds of sex. I love all of the sex. I love this book!!
This book is a hot read about a hot guy and a hot girl. It's definitely hot hot hot!! That's the way I like my books (and men).
The romantic, suspenseThis book is a hot read about a hot guy and a hot girl. It's definitely hot hot hot!! That's the way I like my books (and men).
The romantic, suspenseful book is definitely my preferred genre!!!! And this book is a great example of that genre. It's an incredibly exciting read from start to finish. It's fast-paced, suspenseful, and full of delicious twists and turns that quickly became a page-turner for me. That Ryker is super sexy and I guess I lived vicariously thru Lyra and her adventures. Wow!! What a read!! What a ride!!
I really like sexy guys!! Ryker is definitely a sexy guy!! He's an ex-DEA agent who wants to control his own world. He's so badly broken from a torrid past, that he can barely survive in the present. Sometimes I feel that way too. But I'm not as beaten. Poor guy!! I'm glad Lyra shows up to help him. She's full of her own issues, including a devoted boyfriend, but why let that stop her from being with her newfound love? There's lots of great conflict that keeps me in suspense throughout the book. I just loved it!!! I highly recommend this book!! ...more
