The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
2.0
The reason I only gave it two stars was because the beginning was hard for me to get into.
Wakefield by Andrei Codrescu
1.0
I'm writing a review for this book to warn others not to read it--unless you like books that jump from idea to idea with no real overarching message. I read it for book club and I don't remember one person in our group being ecstatic about it. The upside: it was interesting to read a different type of book than I'd normally pick up.
Zorro by Isabel Allende
4.0
Pirates, love, war, gold, capes, and swords... this is the true adventure tale. I loved it.
Blink by Malcolm Gladwell
4.0
Not as good as the Tipping Point, but I still had a lot to mull over with this one. Malcolm Gladwell makes his book so intriquing that you can't stop reading.
Persuasion by Jane Austen
3.0
Austen's good when you need a good old-fashioned romance, but it's so wordy.
The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
5.0
Great book about poverty in a family in which the parents have so many mental issues. It really made me think about other people's lives and how easy I have it.
