My Humble Book Reviews: March 2010
http://heatherreads.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
My Humble Book Reviews. Tuesday, March 2, 2010. Why Does E= mc. And why do we care? By Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw. The book claims to bring physics down to a level that is understandable by all. I consider myself a reasonably intelligent person, but I got lost halfway through the book. I was good with the history, the time/space continuum. But I couldn't get it. I tried. I think more pictures, more examples might have helped, but I don't feel any smarter for having read this book. If you are a fan of Kat...

My Humble Book Reviews: October 2009
http://heatherreads.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
My Humble Book Reviews. Saturday, October 3, 2009. September has been a hard month for me, only seven books. I am hoping to fit in a few more in the next 30 days. Your Inner Fish - A Journey Into the 3.5 Billion-Year History of the Human Body. The Mother Tongue - English and How it Got That Way. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. At times the book was very hard to read and very violent. I felt the end was dragged out a bit (it wasn't a surprise ending, so no suspense and thus no need to drag it ou...

http://heatherreads.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
My Humble Book Reviews. Saturday, November 7, 2009. Another slow month. Hopefully I will gain some ground in November, as I have set myself the. Random and arbitrary goal of reading 100 books this year. I liked this book, but I wanted to like it more. Jenkins is one of the few minds behind Fairway Market in New York City, which is a wonderful, magical place that I was lucky enough to visit this summer.

My Humble Book Reviews: July 2012
http://heatherreads.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
My Humble Book Reviews. Monday, July 2, 2012. Clearly I haven't been able to keep up with posting everything I read. And let's be honest, most of what I read isn't the type of book you can't wait to tell your friends about. So I am changing my mission. From now on, I am only going to write about books that I loved or hated. Books i need for you to read or books I need to warn you away from. A self-declared liberal goes undercover in middle America. Exploring the east coast of the United States from a boat.

My Humble Book Reviews. Monday, January 4, 2010. I had hopes that I would get a little more reading done this month, since 2 weeks of it were vacation for me, but alas, it was not to be. Here is what I was able to read -. The Wine Trials 2010. Own blind tastings with average wine drinkers and professionals. They tasted over 450 wines that are under $15 and picked their 150 favorites. So far, I have generally agreed with the assessments of the wines I have tasted. The Greatest Show on Earth. Processes tha...

My Humble Book Reviews. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Thanks Noriko for teaching me to do a Wordle. I did one for my blog and I love it. July 2010 - I was off to a good start and read a lot this month, but very little of any note. A lot of murder mysteries and popular fiction befitting of vacation time. One doesn't want to have to think too much while enjoying summer sun. I swear I will get more serious in grayer months. The Gospel of Food. The Shadow of Your Smile. By Mary Higgins Clark. This was a really ...

My Humble Book Reviews. Monday, February 1, 2010. By E L. Doctorow. I have been waiting for this book for months. The story is loosely based on New York's notorious brothers.

Lives they become more and more reclusive and accumulate so much stuff the they are eventually barricaded. In Defense of Food. Obviously, th...
