I always read Shakespeare's plays before seeing a production. I'm seeing this tonight, so I read it first. I can relate to Timon's problem: generosity goes unrewarded.

With Hourglass, debut author extraordinaire Myra McEntire balances science fiction, romance, and a coming-of-age story in one seamless, effortless package. McEntire's prose are conversational, funny, and completely packed with Southern colloquialisms—something that makes my little Southern expat heart go pitter-patter—and she crafts and develops characters so fully that they seem to transcend the page. The fabulously named main character, Emerson, is quite possibly one of my favorite female protagonists, oh, ya know, ever. (Really, she's right on up there with Elizabeth Bennett, Anne Shirley, and Georgia Nicholson.) She's sure of herself despite not knowing she's capable of, she's full of a soft Southern toughness that proves she can take care of herself, but also draws people to her, and she is sarcastic and witty in a way that is endearing and not alienating. The mystery surrounding her ability to see things from the past just makes her all that more intriguing, even if it does mess with her head and make her go a tidbit bonkers from time to time. But Hourglass isn't just about Emerson—in addition to some very Doctor Who-esque sci-fi stuff, there's also a boy. Michael Weaver, the Hourglass consultant that Em's loving and attentive brother, Thomas, hires to help his sister work out her visions of things from the past, is a little, well, disarming. He's young, handsome, mysterious, and has a more-than-professional interest in our (awesome) main character. AND he's a man who knows how to apologize. Ladies, take a lesson from this book—a man should always bring flowers, preferably pink peonies, when apologizing. But the great thing about Emerson is that, though she admits to her only friend, Lily, that she and Michael have an instant chemistry and that he is very attractive, Em doesn't even think about her romantic feelings for him until the book is almost over. In fact, Em kind of avoids him for a good bit of the book because she's a little freaked out by him. Because of the intensely traumatic things she has been through—and often sees—Em finds it hard to trust people, and refuses to let herself succumb to Michael's charms despite the fact that she wants to. She's a smart girl, that Emerson. Now that's not to say that there aren't any steamy, sexual tension laden passages—there definitely are. Michael will have you all swoony and on his side, and then BAM. McEntire introduces you to Kaleb, another member of the intriguing Hourglass organization. Oh Kaleb. Where Michael is level-headed, careful, and self-less, Kaleb is. Mmm. He's the bad boy. Me likey the bad boys. He's everything a girl shouldn't want in a guy—the exact combination of troubled, reckless, charming, and physically intimidating that just makes a girl lose her head, let down her guard, and get her heart trampled on. But Emerson seems to be just the girl Kaleb needs to get him out of his downward spiral, which makes for some delicious sexual tension between the pair. When we realize exactly what it is Emerson can do—and how she fits in with the Hourglass organization—we also realize that Michael has a secret agenda that involves our lovely Miss Emerson. A secret agenda that involves some very large, very severe risks, and that requires a lot of sacrifice on one person's part. By the end of Hourglass, not only will you be BLOWN AWAY by the intricately plotted story, but you'll be so in love with the characters that you'll miss them. McEntire leaves Emerson in a place where she has both learned more about herself and is more confused about herself than ever. You'll be satisfied with the story, but yearning for the next book in the series . . . which doesn't come out until next year. It's going to be a loooong year. Y'all. I've really refrained from writing this entire review in all caps and exclamation points and random characters to convey my excitement. So now I'm going to allow myself to freak out a little. I REALLY FREAKING LOVE THIS BOOK WITH A DEEP, DEEP, BURNING PASSION!!!!!! *dances around the room, with book* I want to kiss it. In fact, I have kissed my finished copy of it. Several times. Perhaps I should marry it. So now I will re-read Hourglass until I have it memorized, and will pimp this book until you have ALL read it. Because it is THAT good. Seriously.

On the Wings of Eagles is a true story about how Ross Perot created a Rainbow 5 type rescue team and recovered his stranded and incarcerated executives. Electronic Data Systems, a company built by the multi-billionaire Ross Perot was working in Iran during their 1979 revolution which saw the removal of the Shah. A team of EDS executives volunteered to go into Iran and rescue colleagues that were being held captive. This team was led by Colonel Arthur D. (Bull) Simons. The story shows, once again, that the truth can be stranger than fiction. The book isn’t like other Ken Follett works and shows that he is the master of fact as well as fiction. I recommend this book to both fiction and fact lovers.

this book is between a three and a four. It is not my favorite of Ibbotson's books. But this book is the one I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone over the age of 12. Like all of this author's books, it is smart and well thought, though the plot is very simple and predictable. This book deals with the Russian Revolution and eugenics. I think it could also deal with class systems and classes within a class. I ended up giving this a 4 because it made me think about things beyond the pages of the book.

What an amazing end to the series. Beautiful and sad though sort of predictable. Despite the predictability, I loved every page.

I really enjoyed this novel, and felt a sense of hope in the deparation of the two main characters throughout the telling of the story.

This was an extremely gratifying fairy tale. It was extremely similar to the Pinnochio tale of a machine waiting to be come a real boy. The side tale about the Dr. Kalmenius and the Fritz had the element of be careful what you wish for that these types of stories always have. Dr. Kalmenius is also extremely creepy, giving it that element that today's sanitized fairy tales are often missing.
