| 1. |  | The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society from Random House Audio Price: $19.74 Customer Review:  Boring! I keep waiting for this book to grab me. When I reached the end of the book, I felt cheated by the glowing reviews. The epistolary style was a real turn off. I found the letters trite and lacking in emotion. Perhaps my history background affected my perspective, but I learned nothing new or... |

| 2. | [no image] | The Secret from RecordedBooks Price: $73.51 Customer Review:  I saw the movie and wanted to give the book as a gift. It was very much appreciated. "A good read" I am told. I recommend this book to anyone who would like to make changes in their life. |

| 3. |  | World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War from Random House Audio Price: $9.02 Customer Review: I got this book for Christmas and previously had no experience with zombie literature. If this book is considered "very good" by zombie afficiandos, as it would appear from the majority of the reviews, this is certianly a genre I should avoid. I found the writing to be boring, the delivery choppy... |

| 4. |  | Handle With Care from Recorded Books, LLC Price: $29.00 Customer Review: ...but she started disappointing me. Vanishing Acts and The Tenth Circle were pretty bad, IMHO. Nineteen Minutes made me think she had just been in a slump...but then she came out with this...mess. Someone else said "My Sister's Keeper, Part 2". That is EXACTLY what I was thinking, the entire... |

| 5. |  | The Time Traveler's Wife from BBC Audiobooks Ltd Price: $20.62 Customer Review:  I watched my daughter sleeping the other night. I wished I could stop time. I wished I could stay there forever. My melancholy mood has a name, and it is "The Time Traveler's Wife". Like most novels that claim to be about one thing, it is really about its opposite--here, escaping the bonds of... |

| 6. | [no image] | My Sister's Keeper from Recorded Books Customer Review: You sort of know going into this book that it's going to be sad. Jodi does a great job of portraying each of the characters accurately. I truly could put myself in each of their shoes and understand some of what they may be going through. I haven't seen the movie yet, but it cannot possibly be as... |

| 7. |  | Bloodroot from Random House Audio Price: $21.45 Customer Review: I was not familiar with Amy Greene when I spotted her book in the local authors section of my local bookstore. Normaly I scan the shelves before coming home to buy on Amazon, but I noticed this book was signed so I went ahead and bought it. Thank goodness I didn't have to wait! Being from... |

| 8. |  | Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close from Recorded Books Price: $14.95 Customer Review:  The excellent writing and inventive story line of this novel are marred to some extent by the senseless gimmicks of the printed product. As someone who believes strongly in conservation, I was horrified by the many pages which were left blank or underpopulated by text. Safran Foer should feel... |

| 9. | [no image] | Yes! 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to be Persuasive from RecordedBooks Price: $89.72 Customer Review: Overall a very useful, practical guide to direct others into agreement. It seemed to be somewhat of an expansion of Dr. Cialdini's "Influence" work. Enjoyable, educational, and entertaining. |

Pseudonymous is SO SO SO hilarious! this is a MUST read for someone who enjoyed Lemony Snicket or The MYsterious Benedict Society! So stop reading reviews and just buy the book! |

| 11. | [no image] | The Weight of Silence from RecordedBooks Price: $139.03 Customer Review: I read this book within 24 hours! I do not know how you could NOT like this book. It was intense, and kept you guessing. Though I figured out "who done it" by about the 5th to the last chapter. But there was always that doubt that I could be wrong. The story is told from the different point of views... |

| 12. |  | Handy Dictionary of Poetical Quotations from Hard Press Price: $22.95 Customer Review: This is an excellent book full of great material. It was published in 1901 and has mostly English authors, plus a few from the Continent and America. The earliest author I found was Chaucer, and Shakespeare is quoted most frequently. There's no table of contents, but the quotes are printed... |

| 13. | [no image] | Songs of the Humpback Whale from RecordedBooks Price: $131.29 Customer Review: I received this novel in the time expected and am currently reading it. I look forward to it along with the other Jodi Picoult novels I have purchased. I am intrigued by Jodi's voice and the way she presents her characters. Every one of them becomes a friend or acquaintance. Her scenes and... |

| 14. | [no image] | The Boleyn Inheritance from Recorded Books Customer Review: Having been thrilled with Philippa Gregory's "The Constant Princess" and "The Other Boleyn Girl", I couldn't wait to pick up "The Boleyn Inheritance". While this narrative did not disappoint, I must say that it wasn't as thrilling of a read as the first two Gregory novels that I read. "The... |

| 18. |  | Sleepless: A Novel from Blackstone Audio, Inc. Price: $19.86 Customer Review: As an avid fan of Mr. Huston's work, I struggled with the first few chapters. Wrapping my head around the alternating story lines told in first and third person had me working more than I had anticipating. Yet it was well worth the effort. Admittedly, I am biased towards his trilogy. The... |

| 19. |  | The Golden Compass Anniversary Edition (His Dark Materials) from Listening Library (Audio) Price: $9.99 Customer Review: Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus. One book in, His Dark Materials is shaping up to be an outstanding trilogy. It is no hyperbole at all to say that Pullman is the inheritor of the Tolkein/Lewis mantle. I can only hope the next two HDM books will be as imaginative and as beautifully written... |

| 20. | [no image] | Playboy Best of Fiction, v2 from Playboy Audio Price: $28.99 Customer Review: There's an economy to Vonnegut's writing that is a wonder to behold. His ability to go off in unexpected directions and his amazing talent for finding humor where there should be none is just as apparent in his short stories as it is in his novels. WELCOME TO THE MONKEY HOUSE collects a number of... |

| 22. |  | The Amber Spyglass (His Dark Materials, Book 3) from Listening Library Price: $8.99 Customer Review: Really, only thing that could be said of this book that would pose some kind of justice to it is - Oh! My! God! And don't be mistaken. Those are not shouts of joy or praise. Now, I'm not a religious person, at least not in any conventional way, and I like more than anything intelligent bashing of... |

| 23. |  | Sweet Tea and Jesus Shoes from Berkley Price: $1.95 Customer Review: Just a good book, featuring tales of a past time. Tales to be remembered and to chuckle over as a lot of them I did myself as a youngster. All these authors are great at writting stories and they really outdid themselves on this one. It will be on one my favorites for a long time and I am thinking... |

| 24. |  | To the Lighthouse: Audio Book from Naxos Audio Books Price: $12.52 Customer Review: In what is perhaps one of the most well-known novels of the 20th century, Virginia paints the portrait of the Ramsey family living in their summer home on an island off the coast of Scotland at three pivotal moments. It's a simple story, but painfully beautiful in the telling. Written entirely... |

If you love beautiful writing and don't need a lot of excitement you will enjoy it. If, like me, you need action and lots... |

| 27. |  | Haunted from Random House Audio Price: $25.12 Customer Review: My first Palahniuk book was "Lullaby" in 8th grade. This was the next book of his that I read and let me tell you I was not prepared for the leap between the two. "Haunted" has some of the most graphic descriptions I've ever read, and at some points I even felt faint, however, I LOVE this book. It... |

| 28. |  | Love Poems from God: Twelve Sacred Voices from the East and West (Compass) from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $8.50 Customer Review: The subtitle for this book is "Twelve Sacred Voices from the East and West" but a truthful subtitle would be "One New Age Guy Passing off His Poems as though Written by Ancient Mystics." I eagerly bought the book, desiring to hear the voices of these twelve mystics. It quickly became clear that... |

| 29. |  | The Beginning from Brilliance Audio on CD Price: $15.75 Customer Review: Wow, I don't know where to begin, with the awful plot (The Cove) or the terrible, choppy writing. Or all of the plot elements that just don't make any sense. |
