Don't get me wrong; P. D. James has written characters specific to some of her books that linger in my memory to this day, years after having read about them in one of her earlier stories. Even the most minor of her characters practically walks off the page in front of you while you're reading one of these novels, and this one is no different in that respect. And her plots are superb. But its Adam Dalgliesh and the few people who are important to him that have meant the most to me since I discovered her novels twenty years ago and got through the third in the series, "Unnatural Causes". Its a joy when the creator of a great character remains engaged and interested in him or her. Dalgliesh and his team have moved with the times as naturally as real people.

I received "Why We Suck" as a gift on the same day that shoppers killed a man trampling him while lined up for "Holiday Shopping" at Walmart and realized this is WHY WE SUCK.
Happily, the book is funny and fun to read.
Sadly, it is a true commentary about our lives.
From CelebuTards to Dr Full to Mr Leary's idea of justice for Michael Vick, the book is astounding in it's genuine insights into WHY WE TRULY SUCK. Mr. Leary is a man with his eyes open and a mind that has not been brainwashed by the spin doctors and Dr Fulls of this world.
If you read one book this year, Why We Suck should be the one.

I read the reviews here as well as NPR radio and bought the book. It is completely disappointing. I did not find anything inspiring in stories such as the types of 'I drank cockroach with coffee so you better be blessed when you drink a normal one'.

Do not buy it - you wont learn anything from it.

I got as far as page 106 and couldn't waste any more time on this book. Too many random words in Spanish-just enough to wonder what the author is talking about. There were also a lot of footnotes-tiny footnotes-that made this feel like a boring school book. I tried, but couldn't finish this book. We read it for a book club and others had the same opinion.

46.A NEW EARTH by: Eckhart Tolle

Books : A NEW EARTH
My name is Steven A. Janda. I am the author of Ready or Not, Here I Come written in 2008. When you read books about creating your own destiny, you should know where they lead. In Genesis Chapter 11, we read about the tower of Babel. The whole earth was of one language and one speech. The Lord said something very telling which echoes throughout the Bible. The Lord said, now nothing shall be restrained from them which they have imagined to do. The result was judgment from God and mass confusion. This is a very revealing statement from God himself that there is power in faith, but you better make sure your faith is in me. Jesus also said according to your faith be it unto you. And, nothing shall be impossible to you if you believe. There is a flip side to this power of faith. Jesus said when he returns he will judge ... Read More

I ordered this book for my 12-year-old son. First, I must say that I use the regular delivery speed, and I received this book in four days, which was faster than I expected. My son loves this book so much. Right after he got this book, he started reading. He finished this book in two days.
