A very compelling read - one of those page-turning, can't-put-it-down stories that keeps you up way past your bed time. Many books have been written about domestic violence and spousal abuse. This one shows how a dysfunctional relationship with a father (or perhaps just a dysfunctional father?) led to two sisters being caught up in the cycle of the abuse; and in the case of one sister, led to her death. Extremely well-written by the surviving sister. I loved her voice and tone.

I thought it was well written, the three stars are because I couldn't stand Holden. I suppose if I had read this when I was in high school and full of teen angst I would have really enjoyed it. However, since I read it now, as an adult Holden comes across as a immature, whiny, self absorbed asshole. I definitely recommend reading this if you haven't read it before.

This has been on my To-Read Shelf for quite awhile, but just now getting to it. I read the first one, and loved it--like I have loved every other book I have read of Karen Kingsbury's. For some reason, it is taking me longer than it normally does for me to finish this book.. not sure if it's just me or the week I have been having or the book itself. Most likely it's just me, because I am enjoying the book...should finish it soon, though.

Let me start off by saying that this review in no way reflects my personal opinions on Kurt Cobain, Nirvana, or any other aspect of his life. If that were the case I would automatically give this book five stars, as Kurt's work and personality has always attracted me, and I've always found him extremely relatable. However, since this is, in fact, a book review, I will try to stay focused on the way the information was presented — that is, what the author himself is responsible for — and avoid passing judgement on the actual content. "Cobain Unseen" is a scrapbook of sorts that chronicles the creative mind of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain. Cross shows us small glimpses into the artist's creative life and allows us to witness the metamorphosis from musician to writer to painter to sculptor to collector to photographer and then back again. The information is brief and rarely in depth — this is not meant to be a biography of Kurt's life or the creation of Nirvana, but instead it shows us his imaginative works of art and writing and provides historical information to put their meaning into context. The draw of this book is not the writing, which is mediocre at the best of times, but instead the inclosed reproductions of priceless memorabilia — a thanksgiving card designed by a young Kurt, a high school diploma, a CD featuring Kurt reading from his journals, and even a copy of the first hand-written edition of "Smells Like Teen Spirit." This is not a book that focuses on heroin addiction or musical power or even the band Nirvana itself — instead it is a collage and highly collectible look into Cobain's mind. The one thing I do find strange about this book, however, is the fact that Courtney Love would allow these journal entires and private photographs and personal mementos to be mass produced and sold for profit in an almost exploitative way. In fact, the manner in which the book itself was put together seemed so opposite to what Kurt would have wanted (obviously, this is purely my opinion as I have absolutely no way of knowing this.) It was obviously designed to sell well, and to sell well something has to be generally inoffensive, clean, simple, not too dark and, above all, and easy to comprehend. In all honesty, I don't think Kurt himself would have liked to see his art muddled down into an "acceptable" wafer of a book, seeing as how his art was always about pushing limits, about questioning typical societal roles, embracing anarchist archetypes and even doing some things for the pure fun of the shock value. At any rate, it seems odd that one would allow the public to rifle through their loved one's belongings, but this is simply a personal feeling and it has nothing to do with Kurt Cobain himself - I would feel the same way if anyone sold out their loved one's private things for mass production. Overall the book is nicely put together, with high-quality photos and bits of history you wouldn't have gotten to see otherwise, regardless of how they came to be put together in a book. Don't buy it for the writing, but instead for the interesting cornucopia of artifacts inside.

A little predictable when the client, Stanley died and left the house to his attorney, Sarah. It was interesting how Steel spun it to be in her family many years ago. Also interesting to see how Mimi, Audrey and Sarah, who fought off relationships ended up with everything they could ever want in life.

Absolutely loved this book. I was concerned that it might be hard for me to relate to 75 year-old characters but it absolutely was not. Great story of war, new lives, and transcendent love. Awesome.

One of the most amazing fantasy novels ever written! Over 600+ pages and it reads like it is half that. You are engrossed in the lives of all of the characters and never lose interest. This is a great book for anyone, not just fantasy fans. Terry Goodkind has an amazing ability with descriptions. Not too much, not too little, but just right. Again, this is a book that anyone who loves fiction would enjoy.

What a fun cozy mystery! The character of Maggie is humurous, friendly, compassionate -- real. I thoroughly enjoyed following her as she tried to solve the murder her new boss and friend Felicity was accused of. And she approached the whole idea of magick with a dose of healthy skepticism. That part of the story wasn't overly done and easy to take. I will definitely be reading book two in the series!

It was the abridged version. Apparently it missed tons of things that were pretty important. I'm not entirely sure I liked it. I will definitely have to read the unabridged version...

Excellent time travel book. It's the only book of Asimov's I've ever read, and I'm sorry that I haven't gotten the chance for any of his other books so far.
