If you like fantasy or mystery, then this is the book for you. I would have rated it 7+ stars, but the rating chart didn’t go that high…

If you get one book a year, then GET THIS BOOOOOK!!!

Every part of it makes you want to read more, every scheme or plan makes you wonder what the next is going to be, and every time you finish a book in this series, you just can’t wait till the next.

And just the style of Eion Colfer’s writing is almost enough t make you think like you’re in the story.

Wow. I hope that’s not all I can say about this book, but that’s where I’ll start. Wow.

Every time I hesitate to think I’ll find a book that is captivating, entertaining, and that will keep my interest and keep me thinking about its characters long after the book is over, I somehow seem to find myself happily surprised. Water for Elephants was one of those books. It was really that good.

I heard good things about it, always saw it on the shelves at bookstores, but it wasn’t until recently that I decided to give it a chance. Why? A book about a circus in the depression/prohibition era is probably as far away from my “normal” reading zone as I can get. But I’m telling you – it doesn’t matter! Not one bit.

Entertaining and engrossing from the very first chapter, I was taken away on this journey with the characters. Nothing short of fascinating, in ways I wouldn’t have thought possible. Part love story, part coming of age, this is at its roots, a story about life and the unexpected paths it may take. I really came to love the character of Jacob, and sympathize with his situation and his love for animals. It’s been over a week since I’ve finished the novel, and I still think about the characters every day. I really got caught up in their world which is something, I must say, is sometimes way too rare in the books I read. Many are good stories, but with Water for Elephants, I really felt like I was traveling along with them in their adventures. A pleasant surprise.

Overall, I have already recommended to more than a few friends, and would encouragingly recommend it here. It may just be one of those precious few books that when you finish it, you stop and, at a loss for words, say – wow.

Tiny Love does it again! This toy is one my 9 month old daughter loves. We got it when she was 5 months old and it has grwon with her. There is just so much to do with it. Music, lights, sounds, textures, and movement. The only thing this toy lacks is a scent. Everything come apart the elephant’s head and two of the rings are connected with velcro and my daughter goes nuts over them. She is learning to put the balls in the head at this point. This toy has a trap door to let the balls roll out and it closes to keep the balls inside for storage. It also has a on off switch -that’s nice too! Just cannot go wrong with Tiny Love toys!

I purchased this book because it was referred to several times in Neale Donald Walsch’s newest book “When Everything Changes: Change Everything,” which I have read twice. Even though I’m only about 40 pages into the book, I feel very comfortable with the information that Neale (God) shares. I highly recommend it to “anyone.”

Does he know what he’s doing?

Twelve-year-old Artemis Fowl is a brilliant criminal mastermind. But even Artemis doesn’t know what he’s taken on when he kidnaps a fairy, Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon Unit. These aren’t the fairies of bedtime stories. These fairies are armed and they’re dangerous. Artemis thinks he’s got them just where he wants them, but then they stop playing by the rules…

I bought this Garmin 305 watch after few years that I trained with a regular clock and Nokia GPS.
I run 40-60 Km a week with a professional training program and have to use a GPS assistance to measure everything.
The Garmin 305 is a great training assistance aid for configuring workouts, pace measurements, distance and so on.
I really recommend it for runners.
I also bought it after a long time that I saw this product worn by runners in training and competitions.

It is amazing how much more aware I am of my daily movement. Every step, and every short walk really adds up. One word of warning: be careful to remember to take it out it from your pocket before laundering your pants. I have already sent mine through the washing machine. Fortunately it dried out and still works perfectly, but from now on, I am keeping it inside a sealed plastic bag in my pocket..just In the past 3 years I have tried MANY pedometers, Omron, Sportline, Wendy’s promotional, etc. Omron is the only brand that I have found to be at all accurate. About 3 months ago I read about the newer HJ-112 in Health magazine and knew I had to get one. This pedometer is the most accurate one to date. I love the fact that I can stick it inconspicuously in my pocket or purse and still count my steps. Most others would pop off my waistband at some point and I would lose them. in case.

I have a lot of carpets in my house and was tired of spending money on an outside cleaner. This model is a nice update, they fixed my complaints about the old one while keeping the things I liked. I love the new spinning upholstery brush. Plus they give you a standard upholstery brush as back up, I’ll probably just use it on the old model to replace the broken one. And the system for holding the hose to the machine has been greatly improved. I also really like the clean surge feature my old one doesn’t have it and it makes a difference. Finally, the cord is longer than the one on the old one, on the old one, I had to attach an extention cord. So it cleans better than the old one and the old one did a decent job. I am very happy with my purchase and figure it will hold up well as the old one is still working fine except for the attachment to the hose. The hose itself is still ok and the rest still works fine. Nothing leaks and the five brushes still spin. I see that they are replaceable anyway should you wear them out. Anyway, great product, cleans great, Amazon has the best price on it, shipped quickly. With the kids, I have already had to use this several times… had an older model of this that I received as a gift 7 or 8 years ago. Since then we have had kids, and the old machine has taken a beating. It still works but the upholstery nozzle has broken (mine has the standard nozzle this one has but no second spinning nozzle like this one). Also the sprayer on the hose kept falling off. I determined to buy this second one for the house and keep the old one for the car.
