| 1. |  | The Shack: Where Tragedy Confronts Eternity
from Oasis Audio
Price: $18.47
Customer Review:
Up until the time Mack returned to the shack, I was fairly interested in the story. But Young's attempt to humanize the religious figures made them laughable. The writing turned amateurish, with lines of dialogue followed by he chuckled, he yawned, she sighed. One cannot chuckle, yawn, or sigh a... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
A friend and I were talking a few months back about Madame Nobel Laureate, Toni, and why we both shake our heads at the dismissal of a truly brave artist such as Alice Walker. So what am I doing on this page other than I couldn't help but give this new, slender novel a read?(--which is exactly what... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from Tantor Media
Price: $23.09
Customer Review:
This book is hilarious. It is witty, with the narrator using contemporay language to make fun of rich people, politics, urban life and even Muslims (who I hope will take no offense). The book is a quick read because it is easier to understand than other Booker award-winning books. The book has no... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

| 4. |  | Just After Sunset (Thorndike Press Large Print Basic Series)
from Thorndike Press
Price: $28.76
Customer Review:
This book is a collection of short stories by the "Master of Short Stories." Most of these are very good and I wished they were longer. I found only a couple that I didn't get into; hence 4 instead of 5 stars. Must read for all King fans!

from Brilliance Audio Unabridged Lib Ed
Price: $67.34
Customer Review:
I really hated this book - after seeing all the glowing reviews, I rushed out to get it. Naturally, another crummy book endorsed by Oprah! I could not stand Olive, nor it seems could anyone else in her town. If you can't stand the main character, then the book is hard to enjoy. I also could not... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I had no idea this book was going to grab me the way it did. It was there waiting and waiting for me to pick it up and when I finally did ~ I could not put it down! I am not usually a sappy romantic but this had so much other elements such as the time traveling that it was fun and intense along with... more info | 4.0 / 5.0
