The Orchid Thief: A True Story of Beauty and Obsession (Ballantine Reader's Circle)
from Ballantine Books
Price: $12.60

Customer Review:

So the movie of Adaptation was amazing and the overall story within this book is good, the themes and ideas hidden in there are good, but the writing, not so good.
I was rather disappointed by the extreme lack of decent writing here. This book was not a pleasure to read at all. It opened up... more info

Orchid Fever: A Horticultural Tale of Love, Lust, and Lunacy
from Vintage
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:

There's probably a good book about orchids and the recondite subject of international orchid policy in "Orchid Fever." In fact, I'm sure of it. Unfortunately, Eric Hansen spoils his effort with a lubricious, snarky brew of exaggerations, sneers, dubious anecdotes and invented suggestions.
