It perfectly does what it is supposed to do.
I really can’t tell the speed difference, and
it is just fast enough. Good product from a
reliable company.

Ninety-year old Jacob lives in a nursing home where he spends most days parked in the hallway, waiting for Sundays when a visitor comes. He’s excited because a traveling circus has set up next door and he can’t wait to go. He flashes back to his youth during the Depression, when he was penniless and joined a third-rate circus as an almost-qualified vet. There, he fell in love with Marlena, the beautiful star horsewoman. Unfortunately, his boss was her brutish husband.

I absolutely loved this book. It contrasts the misery of being old and helpless with the non-stop action of life “on the show,” though that certainly had its share of misery, too. The pathetic circus Jacob joined was full of lively characters, some kindly, others cruel, and Jacob was forced to grow from naive youth to courageous man. There were many pages that reduced me to sobs, especially those detailing the agonizing despair of some nursing home residents and some instances of animal cruelty at the circus.

I would have given this book five stars, but I didn’t like that it was written in the first person (which immediately takes away some suspense as to the future of the narrator), and it was written entirely in the present tense which struck me as awkward. The story itself is engaging, exciting, touching, and rewarding. Highly recommended.

This book should be a disgrace to Evangelical Christians. Wouldn’t hurt for others to be offended also. It is so unBiblical in it’s answers.
Shame on Oprah.

I’m just curious why there are many of you who believe God wrote the Holy Bible when it was clearly written by men such as Neale as well.

I believed the book to be extremely loving and has given a sense of peace within my life. God is loving and if he is loving I don’t believe he can be vengeful and wrathful as well. He or we created ourselves to experience life in all spectrum’s of life and although I also do not agree with some of the ideas, the premise makes logical and spiritual sense with me.

I always heard that this book was a classic and must be read, blah, blah, blah. Well, I finally did and its all that and more. I’m actually upset that I didn’t read this in high school because Holden Caufield reminds me of myself at that age. Salinger’s voice of a the teenage main charcater is so on point its really amazing. Every college freshmen, especially males, should be made to read this. Classic!

The first time I heard about this book was about two or three years ago when my cousin told me this was “soooo gooood!” and I had to read it. I didn’t at first because I knew it was in the Young Adult section of the bookstore and I am always a bit iffy about that section.
Then, once the movie came out and there was this huge craze that followed, I definitely didn’t want to read the books because I try to not get sucked into all the hype.
This past Thanksgiving, I saw that another one of my cousins had the books and I asked her if I could borrow the first book so I could find out what all this mess was about. I definitely didn’t want to waste my money if the books turned out to be as dumb as I thought they would be.
So, on the car ride home I started reading … and reading… and reading … I found that I couldn’t put the book down! When I wasn’t reading, I was thinking about the book and how I wished I could be reading. True this is no mind bending, life changing work of literature, but I found it to be quite addictive and I don’t know why!
As soon as I finished the first book, I ran out to Wal-mart and bought the other three books because I couldn’t wait to have them shipped to me from Amazon.
By the end of the next week, I had finished all the books!
I hate my self a little for getting sucked into these books, but I just found them so entertaining and addictive.

I picked up Twilight one day just to see what the big hype was about. I’m not into vampire novel’s nor have I ever read one.

But this book sucked me in. It sucked me in good too. Twilight is an addicting book, as soon as you put it down, you want to pick it up and read more of it. Who is Edward and what’s up with Bella? Who’s Jacob and why would Edward just be honest with Bella?

For some people, this book will open a whole new world to them. It’ll remind you of the feeling of falling in love for the first time, at least that’s the best way I can describe it and I don’t mean with Edward Cullen, I mean in general. Face it, Edward doesn’t have much of a personality to fall in love with. But there’s just something so addicting about this book and about this story about two creatures who aren’t suppose to be together. Maybe it’s the fact that it’s forbidden, maybe it’s the thrill of the thought of dating a vampire, maybe its because Bella keeps making things difficult or maybe you just want to see if Edward will give in an kill the girl. No matter what it is, this book will grab you and won’t let go!

I really can’t add anything that hasn’t been mentioned. For those wanting it for military purposes, it only displays in Lat/Long. I’ve taken this bad boy all over the world, and its the best training partner ever.
