I LOVED this book!!!! I have read almost every James Patterson published fiction story that he has authored or co-authored.

3.Heart of Darkness (Broadview Literary Texts)Heart of Darkness (Broadview Literary Texts)
from Broadview Press
Price: $3.70

Customer Review:
Heart of Darkness is of course a great classic of Western literature and needs no summary or critique from me.
Nevertheless I could make some suggestions to readers coming to this work for the first time. It has many complexities and more than any other novel of Conrad's needs support by... more info

A close family member is heading off to Rwanda soon and I have been reading lots of horrifying books about the 1994 genocide of Hutus against Tutsis.

Price: $21.00

Customer Review:
I have never read a book that was so interesting and had me hooked about war until now. I read the book A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishmael Beah. The title is one of the main reasons why I chose this book. The memoirs of a boy soldier is exactly what this book is about, therefore... more info

7.The House at Sugar Beach: In Search of a Lost African ChildhoodThe House at Sugar Beach: In Search of a Lost African Childhood
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $8.67

Customer Review:
Cooper writes well and there is a strong connection to family members. Although I agree that the history is necessary for the reader to get a feel of the deep roots that both sides of the family had/has in Liberia, it did get to be a bit long in parts. All in all, like many memoirs that express the... more info

8.[no image]Cleopatra
from Blackstone Audiobooks
Price: $35.88

Customer Review:
The other reviewer did a great job. I agree totally. Normally I would not be attracted to another story about Cleopatra, but I love Haggard's novels, his writing style, character development. I bought this for my Kindle and was surprised at the wonder, complex, multi-dimensional story. Hard to put... more info

from Harper Perennial
Price: $7.78

Customer Review:
I bought eight copies of this book for all the family members who claim this is the story of our lives. Born in Egypt, we left in 1966 (I was 8). The alienation, the humiliation and the isolation we felt not only in Egypt, but in the lands where we ended up are so clearly expressed in this book that... more info
