| 1. |  | Revolutionary Road
from Vintage
Customer Review:
I just finished this book. I've given it three stars because to Yates' credit, it's a well written, vividly descriptive book--about a bunch of miserable people who stubbornly insist on being unhappy. Frank and April Wheeler are a married couple who would have been better off as lovers for no more... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

I was raised in the South - white - and find this a fascinating concept. Enjoyed the book - our book club read it. Warm but not syrupy. Uplifting. Has some tension that ends satisfactorily. Interesting tid-bits about bees also. Find I keep writing the next book in the series in my mind. Guess I... more info | 4.0 / 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!

from Harper

Customer Review:
Ann Patchett is an extraordinary writer, and "Run" is an incredible book. I read it quickly once, because the story was engrossing, and then slowly the second time, to savour the writing. I've given to several friends and relatives. | 3.5 / 5.0

from Random House Value Publishing
Customer Review:
After seeing a number of adaptations, I finally decided to read all of
Austen's novels. Northanger Abbey was not bad, and Sense and Sensibility
is excellent. However, this is the best so far. While there is a lot of
