"I have just finished reading this book and I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! Why she did like that?!!!! It was a very long story, maybe about love; but I can't accept this kind of love. It was just a world that she wants, without the beauties of real world.

I. Love. This. Book. I've been a SATC fan for about ten years now and reading this made the character Carrie Bradshaw so much more realistic to me. It's all there - the sex, the sass, the fashion, and the awkwardness that we've grown to know and love over the years. It's nice to finally have a back story to put with the characters too.

bought this for $5 at a used book store. brought it home excited, and was told we already owned it, a double feature of it and Invisible Man, in fact. oh well, at least im reading it now. what a great book! a serious page turner, probably good to read aloud (come over & listen to our record of the radio play). suspenseful!

MARISSA'S REVIEW: A sci-fi tale set to draw-in the YA world and take it on a journey of survival, self-discovery and love. Glow introduces us into the world that exists on-board the Empyrean - the space vessel taking people set to be the inhabitants of a New Earth. Earth as we know it is spiraling out of control and will cease to exist in the not too distant future. The Empyrean has a sister ship, New Horizon. The occupants of the New Horizon have their own mission - sabotage the Empyrean and take the girls.....you see no-one on the New Horizon can reproduce, yet the people of Empyrean have been successfully creating new families for many years. What could possibly have caused this devastating outcome for the New Horizon? With the attack and removal/demise of most girls and adults, the boys of the Empyrean are left to run a the ship and simultaneously embark on a new mission of their own to rescue the girls and adults being held captive on board the New Horizon. They are all fighting for the same outcome...only fighting amongst themselves is inevitable. Alliances are tested as two struggle for power. Whilst the boys are head to head on the Empyrean, Waverley must take charge and lead the girls being held captive on the New Horizon. Can Waverley step up and be the strong young woman she is required to be? She needs to lead the young girls plus mount a rescue mission of her own.....and why not throw in an escape plan as well?! Waverley discovers she will do anything to save the ones she loves....but can she kill another person that gets in the way? I have held on to Glow for a few months now - I started reading it quite a while ago but my head just wasn't in the sci-fi space at the time. So back on the shelf it went. When I was offered Spark (Sky Chasers #2) to review - I knew I had to pick up Glow and give it a chance. And I sure am glad I did. The characters are great - they evolve constantly throughout the book to suit the environment and perils they are faced with. Yes the odd character needed a darn good slapping - I for one am not a fan of the male lead Keiren Alden. He's just to "by the book" for me! But in saying that, Amy Kathleen Ryan wrote him very well. At this stage I am team Seth - the bad boy rivaling Keiren for not only the captain's position.....but also Waverley's heart. ENJOY! MARISSA

This was certainly one of the better books I've read in the past few years. It's the account of a white journalist from Texas who used medication to darken his skin and lived as a black man in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia in the 1950s. The writing is excellent and conveys harrowing emotions and raises questions that are deep and a searching. What depths of depravity are revealed here when a white man, for a short time, has to see what a difference a change in skin color makes! It is simply amazing to get an account of a white man who is forced to, in some degree, come to grips with the realities that were previously only very abstract. Griffin documents both the attitudes and actions of both the black and white people who surrounded him. John is forced to reassess his identity and privileges as he sees how much of a difference the color of his skin makes when it comes to his daily interactions in some of the Southern states. He also finds that when he "returns" to his true color, he never can quite see the world in the same way. The book powerfully shows how racism not only corrupts those who espouse it but influences the thinking and self-perception of those who are targeted by it. White supremacy is revealed for what it is, a horrible and dehumanizing force which proceeds from the depths of a depraved culture. Many horrible incidents are reported, but even more so, systemic issues which underline cultural institutions are demonstrated. However, it is far too easy to smugly look at the more explicit and outrageous incidents of racism and smugly pat ourselves on the back. The book helpfully shows how many of those who self-identify themselves as being more "enlightened" when it comes to racial issues still hold to some of the conceptions, assumptions, and outlooks which demonstrate that the racism is still there, just less explicit and perhaps softened a bit. Obviously, in gaining a better understand of these matters, it it is necessary to get perspectives of those who suffered from racism their entire lives, for whom documenting the oppression was not merely an "experiment". However, such as it is, this book is a very valuable resource which ought to be read by anyone who wants to gain fresh insight on racial relations in the American South in the 1950s.

This is an important, nay essential book for anyone of any belief or nonbelief to read. Lewis is an intelligent man and explains what the essence of Christianity is and what it means to atheists, to Christians of any denomination, and to people of other religions. He goes even farther, to explain atheism and to a lesser degree the other major belief systems to Christians. He shows Christians how much they have in common with each other. He does this in a very logical, philosophically sound fashion. He does this in an intelligible way, as the book originated in a spoken radio interview. He brings religion to the forefront of reason. How can we say we seek for world peace and prosperity if we don't try to understand each other?

Distressing and absolutely extraordinary. This couple's dysfunctional, muddled relationship was so clearly and realistically depicted, the love and hurt between the two was so poignant, and the end had my heart in my stomach and my mind reeling.
