Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment

Published by on January 18, 2007 | 2 Responses

I picked up Maximum Ride after reading James Patterson’s When the Wind Blows and The Lake House in anticipation of more thrills from his extraordinary bird-children. Of course, that’s exactly what I got. (Note: These aren’t the same children from his previous books, though some of the names are the same, they’re still bird children, [...]

Official Week Of Book Reviews

Published by on January 17, 2007 | 2 Responses

It’s been a long day thus far, and I’m ready to fall out or fall into bed. I’m writing mostly because I need to get back into a writing mode. Fairly soon, I’ll have tons of papers for school, and I’ll need to get back into that mode to do a good job. One bit [...]

When Humans Transcend Biology This is a long overdue review, especially since it’s been almost two months since I finished reading Ray Kurzweil’s signature piece.

I’m creating a new website called Books In Bed. Although, I might change it to Reader Village instead. It’ll probably be another month before the site is fully-functional, but you can check it out anyway.

I suppose I should try and write some kind of review of Richard Russo’s Empire Falls. But honestly, it’s hard to describe such a wonderful peace of fiction in a way that wouldn’t understate just how wonderful it is. The first thing I have to mention is the characters. They are what this book is [...]

Making the Grade at a Top American High School There are more and more books coming out each year that try and uncover what it means to be a public high school student today. Edward Humes does this beautifully, but he takes a different route. He goes into the heart of one of the nation’s [...]
