1.	[no image]	The Things They Carried from Harper Audio Customer Review: Sections of this book were assigned to me as coursework. What I read was so entertaining that I immediately purchased the book and had read and reread it within a weekend. I admit that I'd not have seen the depth of O'Brien's true literary genius had my professor not shed light on some of the subtle... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Best American Short Stories of the Century (The Best American Series (TM).) from Houghton Mifflin Customer Review: I selected this audio book because I liked the idea of listening to a selection of well read stories and I thought the variety of stories looked interesting. The stories themselves are fine, but the audio book is marred by a selection of readers who lack expression and whose voice qualities are not... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.	[no image]	Going After Cacciato (Signed) from Delacorte Press Customer Review: As a huge Tim O'Brien fan, who has read everything he has written, I still think that Going After Cacciato is his best book (although The Things They Carried and In the Lake of the Woods provide stiff competition). Cacciato tells the story of Paul Berlin, an ordinary, decent man who tries to do the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		In the Lake of the Woods from Houghton Mifflin Company Customer Review: In the Lake of the Woods is an amazing journey into memory ands madness - the madness of war, the madness of past sins, the madness of staying with someone you are scared of. This book is not easy. It takes you into various levels of uncertainty and mystery. We all live with our pasts. Some are more... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		If I Die in a Combat Zone : Box Me Up and Ship Me Home from Broadway Price: $11.16 Customer Review: In this memoir Tim O'Brien recounts the testing of his moral principles and the continuing broadening of his understanding of the concepts of courage and bravery. The author successfully presents the reader with compelling insights into the moral dilemmas encountered by a young man dealing with the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Harnessing Hibernate from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $26.39 Customer Review: Buy this book if you are interested in Hibernate. I didn't know Hibernate, but within 3 weeks of buying this book I was fully productive with Hibernate. This book is well written, organized and easy to learn from. Also has a nice chapther on Mavan	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Ripley's Believe It or Not! Amusement Park Oddities & Trivia (Ripley's Believe It Or Not!) from Ripley Entertainment Price: $9.79	Click here for more information


8.		Shades of Gray from Aladdin Price: $5.99 Customer Review: I read this book as a preview for the upcoming year of Sonlight 3+4 curriculum. While I liked the writing of Across Five Aprils more than this book, Shades of Gray is a wonderful look at how easy it is to prejudge those we do not know or understand. Note: Even though I love the idea of students... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		July, July from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $10.20 Customer Review: I have read with dismay some of the negative reviews of this amazing text. Frankly, I don't get it. I am not a product of the Vietnam generation (I am 30) but that is not the primary power of the novel. Rather the power of this text is the truth that it reveals about human nature, dreams, and... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.	[no image]	NUCLEAR AGE from Laurel Customer Review: With every novel, whether it is his best writing or just under par, Tim O'Brien proves himself to be a master storyteller. His words spring to vivid life in the reader's mind; his characters as enthralling as they are flawed; his stories slightly absurd and complex, but always rewarding, no matter... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Northern Lights from Broadway Price: $10.17 Customer Review: If, like myself you have arrived at this novel after reading O'Brien's other literary offerings: 'The Things they Carried' - Excellent, 'If I Should Die in a Combat Zone' - Pretty Good, and 'Going After Cacciato' - Utterly Brilliant. Then like myself, you will probably be disappointed if you spend... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		Tomcat in Love from Broadway Price: $10.85 Customer Review: I've read all of his books...liked some... loved some...Lake of the Woods is a masterpiece..."Tomcat" shows us some new creativity in his writing and creation of characters...read it...you won't be dissapointed.

14.		The Ecology and Conservation of Asian Hornbills: Farmers of the Forest from University Of Chicago Press Price: $35.10 Customer Review: This is one of the best updated accounts on Asian Hornbills that I have seen lately. Taxonomy is reviewed briefly (but very accurately and explicit), with good and useful descriptions of the various genera and species, as well as current distribution, habitats, general biology of the group, ecology... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		Tennessee Off the Beaten Path, 8th (Off the Beaten Path Series) from GPP Travel Price: $11.21	Click here for more information


16.		Maven: A Developer's Notebook (Developer's Notebooks) from O'Reilly Media, Inc. Price: $19.77 Customer Review: This book was a complete waste of my money and my time. The code examples dont work and it focuses on outdated maven 1. Maven is now at level 2.08 and the publishers of this book should know better than to continue putting this book out for sale.

17.		Moonshiner's Son from Aladdin Price: $4.79 Customer Review: I thought that the book "Moonshiner's Son" was a really good piece of historical fiction. It had very good characters and a very good plot. It is based during the Prohibition period when the making and selling of alcohol was illegal. The main character, Tom, is proud to be a moonshiner, but his new... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Amusement Parks of Pennsylvania from Stackpole Books Price: $14.96 Customer Review: Very informative book on the history of many amusement parks in the state of Pennsylvania. Many brought back memories; from all the historic photos. Alot of informative websites and locations are included with lots of information.

19.		The Power of Personal Branding: Creating Celebrity Status with Your Target Audience from Mendham Publishing Price: $24.95 Customer Review: After having read most of the personal branding books, I think this is the new best. It is very readable with clear, concise points and personal, vivid examples. The book has a refreshing scarcity of superficial platitudes. (I have no connection with the author.)

20.		Naked Vinyl - Bachelor Album Cover Art from Universe Publishing Customer Review: This is a huge amount of fun for everyone who likes to look at the fun and funky pinup girls of another era, and who likes the empowerment of women posing in nature's own. The records are incidental to the whole thing, of course; this was mainly an excuse to get some girlie-magazine stuff... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
