I’ve been trying to shape up and needed a means to measure my daily physical activity. This pedometer lets me count the steps I take every day so I can know how I am doing. It seems that its not sensitive enough: does not count softer steps or if I’m holding it in my hand.

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.

I bought this book just to see what all the buzz was about, and I have to say I immediately fell in love. The Help is a beautifully written book with fully formed character (both black and white) who tell a riveting story that rings true, and is very important to hear. The novel deals with an era in recent American history that many, I’m sure, would rather forget.

But it’s really no compliment to say that a book is important. The Help is what a great novel should be– a joy to read and impossible to forget. Cudos to Kathryn Stockett.

I had some reservations about buying this machine because some people complained about leaking, etc. I read enough positive reviews and thought the complainers had user error going on.

I got it today, my eight year old son assembled it (it was that easy) and I cleaned most of our downstairs carpets this evening. Wow! I think of myself as a good housekeeper and it is so painful to see how dark the dirty water is. No leaking!

This replaces my ten year old Dirt Devil that I was always satisfied with. I think this Hoover got the carpets cleaner than they ever have been. The price to purchase it is less than having the professionals come in.

This product absolutely works. I have two full sized GSD’s and it has done everything it has claimed it does. The only problem is you should use this outside, or on a plastic mat for easy pickup. While it does remove a TON of hair, it doesnt hold onto it like other brushes do. It instead moves all loose fur to the tail end of your dog. Make sure you use this product in an easy place to dispose of the hair simply because it removes so much.
