Rosetta Stone 27873 Review: Rosetta Stone Spanish (Latin America) Level 1-2 Set. I am very happy with it; it is brain friendly and intuative. I like to do it so it's easy to keep working on it often. It's not drudgery. It has games, lessons, online etc so it's layered and diverse. I often quit because I can see myself getting tired, not because I don't want to do it anymore. I feel like I am learning though sometimes get impatient with myself because I knew I knew it. I recommend it often to people I ... Read more »

The Rough Guide to Italy (Rough Guide Italy)
The Rough Guide to Italy (Rough Guide Italy) Review: The Rough Guide to Italy (Rough Guide Italy). What I like best about the Rough Guides is that they give critical reviews. They will point out the tourist traps and will give negative reviews. I find that Frommer's and Fodor's rarely point out the negatives to a particular hotel or site. The rough guide is very critical and is a great balance to these other guides. I would balance your trip to Italy with a Fodors (or Frommers) book because the maps and illustrations are often better and there are more higher-end hotels listed.This book will help you ...

Zen Birding
Zen Birding Review: Zen Birding. Reading Zen Birding is like having your own personal guide to nature and the soul. Open any page and a new, often humorous, sometimes sad insight about our relationship to nature and the often invisible life around us is revealed. The book is a delight to read, thoughtful and direct. Like Zen, there is nothing wasted, nothing extra. It is a book you can read and reread and always get something new about birding, conservation and life.6 of 6 . Read more »

Daisy Miller (Oberon Modern Plays)
Daisy Miller (Oberon Modern Plays) Review: Daisy Miller (Oberon Modern Plays). I enjoyed most of this novel while I was reading, and I think that the writing is technically proficient. The end was a great disappointment, and left me wondering why I spent the time reading this mercifully short piece. At least I can say that I've read some of Henry James.My first problem with the book may be the result of not understanding the time period. I am not certain how Americans expected young women to behave, although I understand that their customs ... Read more »

Rosetta Stone 27868
Rosetta Stone 27868 Review: Rosetta Stone Spanish (Latin America) Level 1. I've always considered myself a bit of a language idiot. I barely scrapped by in French 1, and I don't think I ever passed Spanish 2. Honestly, I know I just didn't put that extra special effort in. I was in high school and though eager to learn a new language, when it turned out to be not as easy as I expected, I pretty much gave up. Now, at almost 30 years old, I still always wish I had really mastered a language. First, I'm going to give you ... Read more »

Stormbreaker (Stormbreaker the Movie)
Stormbreaker (Stormbreaker the Movie) Review: Stormbreaker (Stormbreaker the Movie). I am coming late to the Alex Rider series as my oldest son is only seven. This is the second Alex Rider book that I've read, for the purpose of understanding when my spy-obsessed son might be old enough to start reading the series.I enjoyed reading this book. It obviously lacks the complexity and depth of a book written for adults, but it is still a fast paced and enjoyable thriller that borrows heavily on the James Bond and Mission Impossible franchises. Alex Rider makes a likable hero who is ... Read more »

Lonely Planet China (Country Travel Guide)
Lonely Planet China (Country Travel Guide) Review: Lonely Planet China (Country Travel Guide). Like many people, I read the mixed reviews for prior editions to this guide, but didn't see a better alternative, so got it, hoping that the kinks had been worked out. They hadn't.No travel guide to the largest and fastest-changing country in the world can get everything right, but this guide gets a lot more wrong than it has any excuse to. I first encountered this in Macau, when, after wasting a fair bit of time following its maps, I was assured that the official "Tourist Map" had ... Read more »

Rosetta Stone 27835
Rosetta Stone 27835 Review: Rosetta Stone Japanese Level 1-2 Set. Rosetta Stone is a great program, though it wasn't what i thought it would be. When you open it, they jump you right into a sentence, not teaching you how to pronounce the characters or grammar until after this first course. For me, it wasn't too bad because I have already studied Japanese in school, so I know a lot. It's great for me though because I get to review things and help solidify my vocabulary. 1 ...

Lonely Planet Southeast Asia: On a Shoestring (Shoestring Travel Guide) Review: Lonely Planet Southeast Asia: On a Shoestring (Shoestring Travel Guide). I am currently (Oct 2010) travelling through Thailand with this book and I am very displeased with it - for reasons that are not Lonely Planet's fault, but you should be aware of anyway. Wherever I go (or NOT go due to lack of travel information), I feel that I know significantly less about the travel destiation than my fellow travellers. This book also does not put enough emphasis on some of the climate phenomenons around here (monsoon) with climate diagrams for example. For first-timers to the region, this can ... Read more »

Rosetta Stone 27842 Review: Rosetta Stone Korean Level 1-3 Set. I read and try out quite a bit of language books. I really enjoy this Rosetta program, a lot. I actually suggest doing prior studies (like reading characters, basic sentence structures, and maybe a few words) before considering this program. It starts straight into reading and listening with no English explanations (which I love! I get confused with Korean & English translation, I always get stuck thinking in English). The Rosetta objective (I assume) is to place you into the language(in other words "immerse" you into ... Read more »

The beginning chapters provide you with all the essential information you need to plan the trip, including tourist office addresses, best prices for airlines, reminds you to purchase Eurail passes while still at home, etc. ...

Horror!: 333 Films to Scare You to Death Review: Horror!: 333 Films to Scare You to Death. While it is only my opinion, the book is well-done in its range but not in its depth. Moreover, while all people may do so, James Marriott and Kim Newman bring so much of their narrow, personal, and at times, calculated views into their analysis of the films. They come close to trying to "prove a negative" in reading into subtexts and meanings as such - and all the while missing many other elements. 6 ... Read more »
