This wonderful little books work amazingly well with my bread machine (a Cuisinart) unlike any others I've tried. Every recipe has turned out an delicious loaf. I still need to find one that it's not good.

These series of books are fantastic! The recipes seem to work with new and older models as well. I have tried many of them and they all came out wonderful. Its foolproof!

Una historia sobrecogedora e interesante que ofrece las hermosas lecciones que solo un autor como Coelho puede brindar. Un recorrido sobre la sanidad mental,el amor ,el dolor y todo aquello que nos hace mas humanos.

I liked the stories intertwined into the main story. The previous lives of the many characters, but if you have read the previous books it becomes repetitive, the constant reminders of what happened before.

Really? A novel based on an unsolved crime, that after 600 pages never tells who did it? If you're looking to be really pissed of at the end of a long book, search no more,this is it. On the other hand it's very well written. Total waste of superb skills.

A fictional memoir recorded chronologically,diary style, and based on historical events. This book is a gem. I'm not a fan of this type of storytelling but the author managed to blend facts with fantasy in such an engaging manner that you just can't help falling in love with May Dodd, and probably every other female character on this book. I highly recommend it.

Beautifully honest, goes straight for your heart story. The main character is so real it makes you take a look at yourself. For women who are going or being through a divorce this is the book to read. It'll make you cry,laugh,hope,and think again.

The story slowly draws you in. The characters are well developed with a deep,intelligent depiction of each. It starts a little slow and there doesn't seem to be a connection,but keep reading and give it time, you will not be disappointed. I'd rather would have liked to read the letter when the character it was meant for did, and not at the beginning. I had to go back and read it again, and it had subtext to it, that I didn't get the first time. It makes you analyze certain everyday things in a new light when you think through the ideas that pop up from the characters mind flow. I couldn't put it down on the last 100 pages!
