Billions and Billions: : Thoughts on Life and Death at the Brink of the Millennium
Review Date: 8/12/2009


This is simply the best book I have ever read. I was in college at the time studying to be a chemical engineer, and felt beat down by instructors. This renewed my love of science and of thinking, and made me feel like I was on the right path again as I loved everything Sagan had to say. Very readable, with topics that it seems few think about in depth.


Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia

I really liked the first two thirds of this book! It made it SOOO worth the read. It was like having a conversation with a friend. I think it will appeal to female readers who are unmarried and childless, or vice versa and would like to live vicariously through someone who was brave enough to step back before she went down that road. It was a virtual vacation!

This book has changed the way I react to life. I am much calmer and happier as a result of the Four Agreements.

This was by far the best book I had read in a long time! I enjoyed the frankness of the struggles the character went through with family, weight, her age, etc....I read this over 5 yrs ago and have been searching for a book as good since!!@!!

This book was a little fun, but mostly felt as if the writer was too busy looking in the mirror thinking "poor me" with a huge sense of entitlement. I thought it was a waste of time.
