30-Minute Meals
30-Minute Meals

Review Date: 3/11/2011


Let me start off by saying that I enjoy watching Rachael Ray. However, this cookbook didn't impress me. The recipes have a lot of ingredients to buy. Secondly, I only found about six recipes that I liked but even those I already knew how to make. The last item of discontent was the font used for this cookbook. It is very tiny plus the font itself is unlike any I have seen before. It is pretty for a letter but not for a cookbook.

Very disappointed in this book. It is set up like an encyclopedia. If you like reading encyclopedias then you will probably enjoy it. As for me it was a complete waste of my time. Absolutely awful after all.

Great book! Contains detailed information about Ancient Egypt in concise, easy to find pages. Your students will LOVE all of the hands-on activities and learn at the same time.

This is the first Ted Dekker book that I have read. WOW! Loved the storyline, loved the character development, etc. Gives one insight into the life of women in Saudia Arabia. Makes me very thankful to live in the United States.

I need to start off by saying I have enjoyed other books by Kate Atkinson and I am use to her writing style. However, I could not get into this book. I started it several times and just had to stop.

I could not get interested in this book. The premise was cute but I grew tired of the whining main character. All I wanted to do was yell at her to grow up!! I'm setting this book aside for now and moving on to reading something else--not sure if I will pick it back up again.


Dinah Zike's Notebook Foldables~Strategies for All Subjects-4th-College

Excellent resource for visual and kinesthetic learners. I used this book while homeschooling my autistic child. These helped her learn and retain information that she would otherwise forget.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I read it in one day. The storyline is believable and the characters are developed further. There were some moments that I laughed at loud. I can not wait to read the last book because I really want to see what is going on in Ryder's head. He is so rude to Hope! When his Mom called him out on his rudeness it was so funny to see him squirm!

I got this book for my daughter because she always feels bad about making mistakes. This book shows that sometimes mistakes results in a good thing. My reluctant reader loves this book.

Heartwarming story of a family rebuilding an inn. The Montgomery's (mom and three sons) are pouring their heart and soul into the restoration. Great story and I can not wait for the next book.

I picked up this book because of the math content but don't let that discourage you from reading this wonderful book. I couldn't put it down! It was well written and the characters had depth. Enjoyed it very much.

WOW, this was a very good book. I discovered this book at the local library. Hadn't heard of Ann Cleeves but the cover just caught my attention. Usually I figure out "who did it" but I was completely wrong! Engaging author, I will definitely read the other books in this series!

I want to start off by saying that I have enjoyed the Titan series a lot. However, this book dragged for me. The plot was excellent and you learned more about the Gorn but it became tedious with details and dialogue. One hundred pages could of been easily cut from the book and still make a wonderful story. I felt that the author "had to have" a set number of pages much like in school when you were required to write an essay with so many words or pages. Will this stop me from reading the other books in the series? NO! But I hope the other authors treat their story with quality not quantity!

A great follow-up to Ms. Armstrong's first book "Bitten". I enjoyed this one too. Some parts did drag a bit but it didn't stop me from reading the book. I wanted to know how it would end. Ready for the next book!

This is by far my favorite Star Trek series. Finally Riker is captain of his own ship...with Troi by his side. I do not want to go into too much detail because I do not want to give away parts of the book (and I hate reviewers that do). If you loved "Star Trek: The Next Generation" then you MUST read this series. Well at least read this book, the characters are rich, the plot fantastic, you will not be disappointed.
