| 1. |  | The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride, Book 1) from Hachette Audio Price: $22.98 Customer Review:  The Angel Experimetn was a book I could not put down. The characters wer somewhat fantasy and you questioned if this really did happen. The suspense kept me reading. I loved this story to the extend I had my teen daughter read it and she couldn't put it down. Eliza Rey |

| 2. |  | How Fiction Works from Farrar, Straus and Giroux Price: $16.32 Customer Review:  I first discovered this book while perusing the the lit-crit section of the local book store. Although my arms were full, I put down what I had and picked up 'How Fiction Works' and gave it a try. A few moments later, I put the book down. Perhaps, I thought, it was because of my already-busy... |

| 3. |  | Dutch: The First of a Trilogy (Dutch Trilogy) from Teri Woods Publishing Price: $10.17 Customer Review:  This book is a rip-off. The first rip-off is the cost of this trilogy. The first book is printed in large type which makes for the 229 pages. The book took me only about three hours to read. And I'm not exactly a fast reader. At a cost of $14.95 you really don't get much of a story. Why didn't the... |

| 6. |  | Deep Lie from Brilliance Audio Unabridged Price: $26.03 Customer Review:  This is Woods' first and only espionage ladden novel (The Short Forever contains some but not this level).

| 9. |  | The Rainbow: Cambridge Lawrence Edition (Penguin Classics) from Penguin Classics Price: $9.35 Customer Review: This book really awakened my sexuality back in college. I was lifted and washed away on a tide of passionate longing, straight into the arms of a cute road crew guy who had been working on my street that summer. Before I read it, I was just another shy nerd. Afterward! I became the audacious sex... |

| 11. |  | Tess of the d'Urbervilles: A Pure Woman (Modern Library Classics) from Modern Library Price: $9.00 Customer Review: This truly is a classic and as others have said, not for everyone. Heart wrenching in the extreme. No sweetness, light and happily ever afters in this raw story of the life and times as they surely were in 19th England . Class structure, religious and moral strictures and the faults and failures of... |

| 13. | [no image] | Contemporary Logistics from Macmillan Coll Div Customer Review: So far this has been the best reading textbook I've ever had. Of course, I'm biased since it is in the specialization area of my Master's Degree, so the material interests me. 1/2 way through the course, and learning alot from reading this book. Highly recommended. |

| 14. |  | Collected Stories from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $12.75 Customer Review: Most of these stories are vintage Bellow continuing his themes, particularly difficult relatives or just plain screwing up with family. Poignant and funny and plenty of what lies in between. |

| 15. |  | The Irresponsible Self: On Laughter and the Novel from Picador Price: $10.88 Customer Review: It is a truth universally acknowledged that there is no current literary critic who writes as brilliantly as James Wood. His metaphoric precision, his moral rigor, his exacting standards of literary excellence, his humanistic compassion dwarfs all competitors for the title. One would have to revert... |

| 17. |  | Swallow Book 4 from IDW Publishing Price: $26.40 Customer Review: Each contributing artist is amazing in their own right, a little something for everyone. James Jean and Ash would be enough but this just keeps on giving with Hem, Brom, Cypress, etc... I hate to complain but it is something that has bothered me since purchasing the book. The Ash Wood pieces are... |
