"Funny yet insightful!"
Of course the title catches your attention (especially if your black) and the reviews of the book made it a must listen for me. I was listening "A Dance With Dragons" and the mere fact I could take a break from that book to complete this one speaks highly of it!
I love self narrated titles of this particular genre. The author/narrator brings across a light and funny feel for the book even though it does contain some very serious and poignant facts. Satire, irony and general comedic enjoyment is rampant in this title and you will actually find yourself saying your name at the end of the book as the narrator instructed. I particular like the chapter about 'Being the Black Employee" and "How to be an Angry Black Person". He made an EXCELLENT decision in incorporating the likes of Damali Ayo, Christian Lander and Jacquetta Szathmari for added perspective on various topics.
This book is not all about the laughs though, even through the laughs you learn (which is the best way to learn) and gives some semblance of guidance to simply survive in Black America. It is an interesting perspective to view as someone who grows up in a country (Jamaica) where everyone is black... Gives me a bit more insight on how being Black in America is to an extent.
"A Great Second Book"
I enjoyed this. It was long, it was epic and it was fun. Generally I get bored with titles that are this long unless they have a great storyline to back it up. This book DEFINITELY had the storyline to back it up. I was pleasantly surprised throughout the entire journey of this book. There was nothing truly irrelevant in this and it had a good combination of reality and fantasy to make it believable and enjoyable. There is definitely growth in all the characters in this book when comparing it to the first book in the series (this is something I always look out for in books I read). You can also see that it was well thought out... The entire plot and the entire book itself. A+ all the way.
"Can't find Fault"
This is actually one of those really well written books. The narration was on point and the content impressive. I was pleasantly surprised here not particularly thinking that I would enjoy this book as much as I did. The book comes to a nice resolution here and it had the right amount of twists and intrigue throughout the book that keeps you gripped. The narration while initially was a bit.... offsetting for me really grew on me as the book progressed. I enjoyed the growth I found in the major characters and I like how this book sets up the other books in the series while still being good enough to stand on it's own. The strength of the book isn't the promise of another book in the series, although you end up being intrigued enough to want to read other books, the book is just genuinely a good read.
"It's not done?"
I hate it when a book ends at on a cliffhanger. I remember listening to this title.... looking at the time left and knowing that there is no way everything is going to be wrapped up in the time that was left. I am not sure how the other book in this series is going to unfold but it's definitely going to be an interesting one.
The action in this one got turned up a couple notches with a lot of really fast pace, exciting portions. Up until the very last sentence you're treated with a barrage of action from the characters in the book. If you enjoy fast pace action, you'll enjoy this.
The narration to me was average at best and annoying at worse in places. The story is strong enough though to have you wanting to listen to the book despite.
The most annoying part of all this is having to wait on yet another book to see how this is all going to unfold....
"The privileges we take for granted....."
It is one thing to read in the papers about the often times nameless and faceless individuals that are killed due to senseless killings in the Middle East due to the Taliban. It is also so easy to take for granted the simple pleasures and privileges that a peaceful and relatively liberal society brings. "I Am Malala" is one of those books that makes you not only thankful for the little privileges that you have but also admire the power that is the human spirit as well.
The story is the story of Malala. While I might not see this as a piece that was written extraordinarily well with fancy words or whatever, it's content is without a doubt what sets it apart. The book could use some editing and a thesaurus at points however when one thinks that it was written by a young woman, you get to appreciate the writing style for what it is. As much as I think living in the time and place she lived in forced her to mature beyond her years, I also despite that she was/is an extraordinary young woman to have created this. The depth in the book is truly inspiring and eye opening as well. The fight she fought for the right for education is something I think very few could do.I found myself torn between both respecting and being disappointed in her father at parts of the book because it is nothing short of miraculous that Malala was able to survive what she went through (past of it due to her father's ambition to an extent). It clearly is something that shaped and built her though and there is no doubt in my mind that her father cared and still does care for her greatly.
The narration is what I expected it to be. It would have been vastly disappointing if the narration was not even at least bearable; fortunately it was not only bearable but done very well. The narration did well to compliment the excellent content in the book and left a memorable impact on me.
Overall, this book was one of the highlights of my 2013 reading list. It stood out to me in a positive and put faces to a tragedy that is going on right at this very moment. For anyone who finds themselves complacent and downright unappreciative for the privilege that it is to be able to learn freely.... this book should be read. The ability and privilege to learn should never be taken for granted.
"The other side of Tufo"
I must say, this was pretty much a very interesting one. Whilst going through Tufo's work you find that there are two very distinct sides to his write.... The witty, sarcastic, slightly neurotic side that we have come to get used to with Mike Talbot (zombie fallout version) and his gang. There is also this side; a very dark and twisted Mark Tufo who creates books such as these... One thing that combines all Mark Tufo novels I have ever come across is that they're good....
The story itself is an interesting take on the Mike Talbot story. The alternate reality that has been created here provides interesting questions regarding life after death. It gives a more tangible face to death in a sense. You find yourself empathizing with Mike throughout most of the boo, essentially just wanting him to catch a break. The ending is somewhat bitter sweet but also rather fitting when you take into consideration the whole story.
"Incest is in?"
Yeah it hits rock bottom right here no doubt.... I do get that a lot of people like this book but why I don't know.... Maybe it was because there were a couple interesting characters or maybe it's because they just link all books related to the wonderful world of magic.
Again, like the first book, I like the concept; in fact the concept of the book in and of itself allows for the book to have a whole lot of potential. That however can not take away from the shoddy story itself. Sadly there wasn't any real growth between the first and the second story in terms of writing style (not from my vantage point at least).
I found a number of disturbing concepts in this book that I just am flabbergasted that the author and their editor allowed to go on in this book. I was telling a friend of mine about the book and their take is that way too much was going on in the book and I agreed wholeheartedly.
For one.... If you have made it this far you know that the main character is 'supposedly' the sister of another main character (and I put that in quotations because I can't possibly see this being the case by the end of the book series). The disturbing part about this is that they are in love.... And we are not talking about the platonic type here.... I am talking about the 'I swoon every time I see you/I want to kiss you so much/you smell like sweet lavender and the heavens part/awkward and wanting staring' type of love. Oh and yes.... they know or at least believe without a semblance of a doubt that they are brother and sister. I mean I know they didn't know they were brother and sister but seriously, they only knew each other for what I can only think is a week (2 the max) before they found out they were related, I am thinking that there is no way you can be THAT in love with someone that the whole idea of them being your blood sibling doesn't nip the whole I-want-your-body feeling they are harboring.
Disturbing fact two.... So we have a Alec in this book. I don't have an issue with him being gay, bi, confused or whatever. That being said the dude is 17 I think and is romantically involved with a warlock that's older than his mom, dad and grandparents' ages combined... No kidding.
Disturbing fact three.... This is the second most grievous aspect of the book for me. Simon. This dude is in love with the main female character who he's been friends with for years. Understandable of course but the thing that got me *major spoiler alert by the way* home boy gets turned into a vampire. By the end of the novel he somehow becomes able to walk in the sunlight (he doesn't sparkle though thankfully). Apparently this spares him from having to tell his mother that he is a souless, blood-sucking demon who will likely remain ageless and dash all of her hopes of having grandchildren (of the human variety at least) from him.
Disturbing fact four.... Well this wasn't too disturbing but moreso annoying. The uselessness of practically every adult character in the novel. This wasn't as the level of the first book but I still find it hard to believe that the adult characters can be as misguided and just plain as inept as most of them appeared to be by the end of the novel.
Now that I have gone through the disturbing facts; lets talk about the narration. The narration here is at best, forgettable and at worse jarring to the senses.
"2 Stars because it actually gets worse...."
So yeah.... I am glad I listened to the first and the 2nd book before I wrote this review because whilst this book left a bitter taste in my mouth.... the 2nd book left me downright gagging. But yeah, this review isn't about the 2nd book.... It's about the horror that was the first book.
Let me start off by saying I am a big fan of fantasy literature... It's more than likely my most preferred type of book to read. I also really like the concept of this book. I actually found myself more intrigued about the 'world' they were living in within the confines of the book than the actual story itself. This goes to show how much potential this book had. In fact one of the main reasons I went to the second book in this series was because I was fascinated by the world they were living in.
The story though.... The story.... was just upsetting to me. I am hardly too gung ho about the whole 'fated' lover thing, I mean not that I am completely grossed out by the thought of being in love but at 15, 16 or 17.... But that's just one thing, the writing is far from a work of art, it sounds like something a high school student would write (an above average high school student but a high school student none the less). I'm confused as to how and why the adult characters in this book can be so utterly irrelevant (except maybe for one or two adult characters in the book). The 'twist' in or near the end... Sadly I saw it coming... I was hoping the author wouldn't go there... but the author went there.... and it was and is disturbing.
The narration leaves much to be desired. It wasn't the worse that I have ever heard but it's right up there.... or maybe I should say down there.... either way it's not good.
"I'm Interested"
I went through this title quickly (as in less than one day quickly) which simply means that it was good enough to keep me interested for the entire length of the book. I actually didn't expect it to be as good as it was (having just completed the let down that is Allegiant) but I was pleasantly surprised. It had interesting characters, awesome plot twists and even a seemingly well thought out storyline.
In this title the government seems to be at it again in yet another futuristic world. We have two genius kids who are pit against each other due to a series of unfortunate circumstances. The author doesn't shy away from death which I appreciate (I always find it way too coincidental when I read books like these and no one of somewhat importance dies in the book). The characters all seem to be rather interesting as they currently are and the book leaves a whole lot of room for growth in them which will be particularly interesting to see. Another nice thing about this title is the action. When it started to pick up... It really picked up.... Fast and furious action which was actually of the believable nature more often than not.
The only disconcerting thing I find is their love at first sight thing that seemed to permeate the fated meeting between Day and June. I get they would be automatically intrigued (at least) by each other if only for the mere fact that they both probably are of genius IQ proportions (like things such as those either have the effect of bonding or repulsing you), but they seemed to have fallen head over heels for each other pretty quickly.
I liked the narration when the Steven Kaplan (the male narrator) was doing it.... I had to get used to Mariel Stern (the female narrator) which I am pretty sure shouldn't be the case; midway through the book I really didn't mind her much. They did a credible job at getting the story across which I am pretty psyched about.
I must say, all in all I am interested and intend to blaze through all these books.... Yup..... I'm interested.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! AWESOMENESS!"
I have been experiencing Zombie Fallout withdrawal, I know that there are other Mark Tufo books and all of them scratches that itch of Tufo-ism I have needed but none compare to the epicness of Zombie Fallout with Mike, his family, BT + Tommy facing a Zombie Apocalypse and all that it entails.
I am a scientist at heart, a theoretical Chemist to be exact so I express myself well in the form of equation. I will use an equation to describe the narration:
Sean Runnette + Mark Tufo = Perfection!
That's just it.... Absolute PERFECTION. I don't know what fate put this author and this narrator together but to the powers that be... Thank you!
Now this book is just plain exciting... There are so many moments that you are at the edge of your seat... And if you are a true fan of the art of Tufo-ism then you find a couple references to other books in the Talbot Universe (Callis Rose reference the most obvious there) which is always a trip. You have that dry sarcasm teeming from Mike Talbot, the mismatched thought processes of Trip along with his poor wife who is just perpetually confused by her husband, the downright brutish nature of BT, the crafty and hard to kill Mrs. Denou.... With the death of Eliza, Mike has to find a new quest and the quest here is simply to find a cure for his son and his best friend. This book was the nice combination of action as well as plot development.
The book put me in a rather peculiar conundrum.... One where I couldn't help but make my way through this title, and also definitely not wanting it to end. It ended all too soon for me.... There will be more though. Thankfully there will be more! So my only problem with this title is..... I have to wait for book 8.
"Beautiful, Tragic, Beaitiful & Honest"
So this is one of those rare titles that you best listen to on a weekend when you have NOTHING better to do with your time. Why? The book is so exceptionally enthralling that you will find yourself immediately drawn into the story if you are even remotely a fan of literature of this kind. The narration was faultless and the story was tragic but honest and done so well. Absolutely superb.
I think this book has the potential to polarize an audience. I say this because the topics the book touches... topics such as high school, suicide and date rape... all these topics are highly sensitive. These also are topics that some are not comfortable talking about and are in general very 'heavy' emotions to deal with. The book comes off as that, heavy.... riddled with feelings and emotions... That being said the somewhat heavy tone lends to making each portion of this book seem meaningful in some way. You know a book is great when it feels organic in a sense and unforced which was exactly what this was.You knew the outcome of the novel, the tragic end of the girl who left the tapes, and yet you find yourself engrossed in the novel from beginning to end.
I agree that this book is tragic and if you are looking for a happy ending then you will miss out here. I mean yes, there is some amounts of closure and the main character here does find some sort of redemption in the end but there can be no true happy ending in a book where one of the main characters commits suicide. What appeals most me though in this book is the honesty.... it's tragic, it sucks but it's also true and it needs to be told. It also helps that the book is written so beautifully with the phrasing, the pauses, the choice of words being just plain immaculate.
It's the sort of book that makes you want to be a bit nicer to people for the mere reason that you never know what they are going through and you never know if maybe they are teetering at the edge of their breaking point. It makes you want to ask someone "how are you" and actually mean it.... Sharing a kind word with someone just for the mere fact that you can just in case.
The book had that ability to bring me back to some not so nice moments in my own life maybe not as bad as what Hannah went through but bad in its own right (I think everyone goes through something like this at one point or another) and it made me thankful for it not 'snowballing' as it did with Hannah because really, who knows how different I would have been now?
When I finished the book and told a certain someone about it, they told me I shouldn't 'gush' about it in my review.... Well.... I am gushing and I believe this book was absolutely worth every moment of gushing. I mean I went through this book cover to cover in one sitting.... For a usual busy body like me doing 1 million things at once that truly is a task for a book to accomplish.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a sobering and honest title. To break up the monotony of sci-fi or action or romance or fantasy or whatever you're accustomed to. To delve in the mind of someone who simply was pushed too much... Where a series of unfortunate occurrences snowballed into something tragic... Something, that if you take the time out to reflect on and really allow to marinate within you can actually make you a better person after you finish it....

San Diego
27 March 2005
San Diego
The rest of the rehearsal week in L.A. passed with many more late nights but not too many crises. The band were in from Thursday to Saturday during which time we have beaten the set into shape though playing and much discussion. Also present are Gavin Friday, long time friend and advisor to the band and Steve Lillywhite producer of many U2 albums. Both of these gentlemen know their way round a rock show and are here to aid and abet the process.
The days ran to schedule, with crew work in the mornings, band in at 2 or so for music rehearsals, then one or two run-throughs of the set, often going till midnight. After that the creative team would retire to the dressing room to compare notes, watch video tapes and plan further strategies for a couple of hours. Finally, once the building was quiet and empty again, myself and the night crew would have the place to ourselves to carry on programming and turn the strategies into reality. Often we would work late, one night getting back to the hotel about 7am, just in time to meet a van full of crew about to head into the gig for the early shift. Open 24 hours, we are.
Today we leave and head to San Diego. I got a ride down with Michael Tait, the fabricator of our astonishing stage. Michael is what's now known as an 'industry veteran' and has been making wonderful objects for U2 since the War tour, when he was also the lighting supplier. He's also very funny, and given that the other passenger in the vehicle was Mark Fisher, the tour's 'Architect' (i.e. set designer), it was a most entertaining journey. It was also very productive, as we are currently deep in discussions about the European leg of the Vertigo tour. Necessarily the show will be quite different to the one we are creating for North America as the shows al all outdoors. Not only that, but given the dates are late June in to July, much of the show will be played in daylight. This needn't be a problem, but it does require a different approach and a good deal of thought.
About a month ago we did think we had a plan, but over the past week or so I began to have misgivings about it and have ended up pulling the plug on the original idea. I am refusing to panic about this, but time is now very short and of course everyone is completely consumed with the labour pains of the indoor show. However, two hours in an enclosed space with a couple of industry veterans does wonders for the creative flow, so I have renewed confidence that all will be well as the next idea begins to take shape. Into San Diego, dinner, early night.

EDITOR'S CHOICE -- SCOTT SUTTELL Kasich draws National Review's ire for expanding Medicaid in OhioBy SCOTT SUTTELL 9:56 am, February 6, 2013
Let's make this a quick-hits edition: "The governor has allowed himself to be bought off by the false promise of 'free money' from the federal government," the magazine opines. In acceding to the Medicaid expansion, Gov. Kasich argues that he "avoids leaving Ohioans' federal tax dollars on the table and keeps the federal government from simply giving them away to other states." Gov. Kasich "does have a kernel of a point; in general, fiscally conservative governors should not be expected to decline benefits while their constituents' federal tax dollars continue to fund such benefits in liberal states," according to National Review. But the magazine says the "critical difference" between the Medicaid expansion and most other federal subsidies is that governors "are in a position to resist the expansion of Medicaid if they so choose. … Gov. Kasich is marching in the Obamacare parade by his own volition." "The project — a melding of more than 500,000 square feet of office, retail, residential and public spaces — is unfolding across a four-block, four-acre section of downtown," the newspaper notes. "City and university leaders said the development, the largest downtown construction project in Kent's 208-year history, will outfit the city with new destinations that suit contemporary lifestyles and spending patterns." If all goes as planned, the development will "open a new economic era in Kent by helping to recruit and retain young professionals, as well as Kent State students, faculty and staff members," The Times says. The Times credits Dave Ruller, Kent's city manager, and Lester A. Lefton, president of Kent State, with "galvanizing the community to redevelop downtown and draw the city and the university closer." Based on indicators such as consumer consumption and electric power usage, China's gross domestic product probably grew 3% to 4% last year, Mr. Cutler tells the news service. He says growth is accelerating now that China is past the distractions from its leadership change. "That's what we and so many multinational companies have been feeling there in China for the last year and a half, the economy really hasn't been growing at 7 or 8 percent," Mr. Cutler said. "If we could get back to an 8 percent growth rate in China for 2013, that would be a pretty darn good year." Bloomberg notes that Mr. Cutler's skepticism about the data "echoes complaints from economists … that China had inflated third-quarter growth before the November congress where the ruling Communist Party had its decennial transfer of power." The survey is done every other year by the Economist Intelligence Unit. (And, unfortunately, it's behind a paywall, so I can't link to it.) The survey of 131 cities worldwide — and 16 in the United States — uses New York as a baseline in its international comparisons. "Tokyo and Osaka in Japan, Sydney and Melbourne in Australia and Oslo in Norway were listed as the top five most expensive cities in the world on the Economist cost-of-living list," The Journal notes. "In the U.S., Cleveland and Atlanta offered the most value, both 30% cheaper than New York." Vancouver is the most expensive North American city in which to live. That Cleveland work represented most of Mr. Hanks' stage experience until now, as he's about to open on Broadway in a play called "Lucky Guy," where he plays a 1980s-era tabloid reporter. (Previews for the Nora Ephron play begin March 1.) Bloomberg notes that Mr. Hanks, who has committed to perform for 15 weeks, "will earn 12.5 percent of the weekly box office, with a $75,000 minimum. His weekly take could reach $150,000 if the show sells out." Even after he leaves "Lucky Guy," his deal would stand to earn him as much as $20,000 a week. Talk about a lucky guy.

M left us to our own devices until Tuesday night and my mother came in as backup. We were out late last night for the monthly evening children's service at our synagogue so we stayed close to home today. The girls and my mom spent a lot of time on the swingset while I hovered in my air-conditioned pollen-protected house. My mom tried to dent the clean-but-unfolded laundry piles that have taken over the living room. I herded
E concocted this elaborate game where we were going to visit dangerous animals, and I was scared, and she held my hand and protected me, but I was very scared. So sometimes I had to beg her to hide with me, so overwhelmed was I with the fear. Then E could shush me while I screamed. L didn't really play with us, so occupied was she with her beaded necklace and her book and her milk cup and the rocking chair all being hers all to herself, since E and I were on that very dangerous indoor safari. L did, however, always join in the screaming from her perch, and then return to rocking and reading. My mother commented that she was waiting for the neighbors to call the police but I am almost certain that our houses just far enough apart that we can shriek undetected.
We passed the polar bear in the kitchen and we screamed. We spotted a tiger in the dining room but we crouched in a corner until it had passed, and then we sobbed with relief. We got to the living room where I thought we were safe, but then E spotted a scary giraffe. I suggested we lay still on the floor; maybe giraffes can't see well, so far down. We still had to scream, though, because the fear was still there: what if it still somehow saw us? I suggested to E that maybe she ask Grams for a blanket or something that we could hide underneath. E yelled to my mom, three feet away: Grams! GRAMS!! Throw something on so we can HIDE FROM THE SCARY GIRAFFE! Intuiting the the need for cover was dire, Grams threw the item she was folding, which just happened to be a pair of M's boxers. As the soft cotton draped our faces, E and I cowered, nose to nose. And I thought, if M hadn't done so much laundry in anticipation for his trip, I might have died today. And wouldn't that have been tragic for L to have been left motherless and sisterless because of one of those freak scary giraffe maulings you're always hearing about on the news.

Facial Treatment Repair C, despite the name, doesn't contain vitamin C. In fact, all it contains is Pitera, water, slip agents, water-binding agent, and preservatives. The one thing you may be gleaning from this product lineup is that whatever effect Pitera has, P&G must believe it takes a lot of it to provide a benefit. Otherwise, why not just offer one super-Pitera product and call it good, and have this option be something else that is proven to be beneficial for skin?
Hydrates intensely. Refines. Diminishes appearance of fine lines. A light yet powerful replenishing serum with rich moisturisers, Hyaluronic Acid and Pitera 4 - an extremely concentrated form of Pitera, repeatedly filtered to produce a high-powered anti-ageing element.Replenishes thirsty skin, leaving it silky and smooth.
Saccharomycopsis Ferment Filtrate (Pitera), Water, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Pentylene Glycol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium Benzoate, Methylparaben
SK-II At-A-Glance
Strengths: Some well-formulated moisturizers and serums; all of the sunscreens provide sufficient UVA protection.
Weaknesses: Shockingly expensive, especially for the wide assortment of mediocre products; unreliable skin-lightening products; AHA/BHA products that contain an ineffective amount of exfoliant; no products to help manage blemishes; jar packaging.
Procter & Gamble, as always, is extremely helpful in providing information about their products. In this case it was for their upscale SK-II skin-care line. We certainly can't say that about most companies. We have to acknowledge P&G for having the integrity to share their "inside" details with someone like me, who might be more critical than complimentary. Thank you, P&G!
Regrettably, and we mean that sincerely, we wish we had more positive comments to convey, but alas, we don't. The data provided don't change the reality about skin care and the ingredients that can have an impact on skin. SK-II products are hardly worth the price, especially when compared to Olay Regenerist and Definity (P&G's own drugstore line of skin-care products). In fact, it takes only a quick review of the formulas to note that many SK-II items are very similar to Olay Regenerist items, except that the latter don't include Pitera, the supposedly miracle ingredient in this line. Yet there is minimal research indicating that Pitera is even helpful for skin.
Pitera is the cornerstone of the SK-II line and is present in every SK-II product. Pitera is the trade name for Saccharomycopsis ferment filtrate (SFF), a form of yeast purportedly unique because of the fermenting and filtering process it goes through before being added to these products. As it turns out, many forms of yeast have anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidant properties, including SFF (Source: Journal of Dermatologic Science, June 2006, pages 249–257). Other than that, all of the information about Pitera comes from papers presented at medical conferences, not from published studies. Presenting papers at medical conferences is not at all the same thing as publishing the results of studies. We frequently present papers and information at medical conferences, and we wouldn't offer that material as proof of anything because it isn't. The standards for presenting a paper at a medical conference are very different from the requirements for publication of study results in most medical journals.
To give P&G the benefit of the doubt, even if Pitera is a wonder ingredient, this doesn't explain how it rates when compared with other "wonder" ingredients because there are no comparison studies. Hundreds of ingredients—ranging from green tea to superoxide dismutase, epigallocatechin-3-gallate, eicosapentaenoic acid, beta-carotene, pomegranate, and curcumin to vitamin E, vitamin A, and on and on and on—have stellar reputations, and there's copious documentation to prove it.
Another point to consider: If Pitera deserves the spotlight SK-II shines on it, then P&G needs to change their claims about Olay Regenerist and Definity, and at the very least say that these products are almost as good as SK-II except we left out the Pitera. Ultimately, unless you believe Pitera is the answer for your every skin-care need (because each and every SK-II product contains it, with very few other added extras), there is no reason to waste your time and energy on this line.

Lovely sleek fit!
I pair this top with my flared skirts. It has a beautiful sleek fit and the gold buttons and pockets give it a very nice look.
August 16, 2013
great buy!
i got this shirt on sale and love it! it looks great! you can dress it up for work or to go out. true to fit, although i am afraid the buttons could easy fall of. love this shirt
July 31, 2013
I LOVE this top! It's exactly what I was looking for. The color is very pretty.
July 26, 2013
I randomly decided to try this top on and immediately loved it. Unfortunately after putting it on at home, I realized that it did not fit well. I went with my usual small and it pulled too much across the chest (I'm 34C). (There was no medium in stock in store to compare.) I ended up returning it because the buttons don't stay buttoned. The "buttons" are little gold round beads that you have to slip through the button holes, but they don't stay put, especially when taking the top on and off. In the end, this just wasn't the top for me.
July 19, 2013
Must have staple piece!!!
First I ordered the black top and loved it! So I had to have the beige! The fit and the cut is perfect for any body type. You can dress it up or down.Also the quality is great! I am 5'6 and 120 pounds and a 36 C and I ordered a medium and the fit is perfect! Not loose or not tight. Fitted as I feel looks best. And already got many compliments!
June 27, 2013
Cute shirt
I liked this shirt when I got it; however, I ended up returning it because I liked the sleeveless Henley shirts better (for me they had better versatility).
June 21, 2013
nice fit
I like the light material and the fit is perfect for work or after hours..

it is amazing. i always receive complements. it has been five years and every time i look down it still amazes me. however this is IMPOOOOORTTTTTAAAANNTTTT ... if you are atttempting to match it with a wedding band you will need to costum make one and have to modify THIS RING as the small diamonds on the side will fall of eventually from the friction of the custom made diamond. it does so becuase it wasnt designed to be paired up with a wedding band. easy soldering of this ring will prevent that, the looks and quality of ring make up for this small problem. LOVE IT
I bought this to replace my lost wedding ring. It is gorgeous. I get compliments on it all the time and it sparkles at any angle. You won't be dissapointed to by this.
My fiance bought this ring for me when he proposed and I absolutely love it! It sparkles at every angle and looks like a disco ball in the sun :) I get so many compliments on it. I would only recommend that if you purchase this you make sure you have the perfectly right size. I had to get mine sized down and it was a bit of a process because the jeweler couldn't just cut it and shrink it like she normally does, she had to order and insert and fit it twice for me.
After staring at this ring online for about a year, I finally ordered to replace my original wedding ring, which was too tall and always getting caught on everything. I was not disappointed. The quality is outstanding. The profile is great. It is comfortable to wear and absolutely stunning. It is large without being gaudy. The sparkle is beautiful and it looks great in the sun. I can't stop staring at it. When I took it in to have sized, the jeweler was surprised at the price that I paid, as she said it would cost nearly double in her store. Very satisfied with the purchase. The shipping takes FOREVER, so if you are in a rush, do the expedited shipping (which still takes eons compared to most online vendors). I will say, it was worth the wait.
when I just got the ring I was happy but not that much about the size because I was the one who bought the ring (I picked it), so I was expecting something a bit larger, but I even then I never thought about sending it back..... I cant say enough about the spark is so beautiful, bottom line, I can't complain :), thank you O.co
OMG! THIS RING IS SOOO PERFECT!! It is classic and looks SO elegant! It is crafted very well and feels sturdy enough that you won't have a problem with the pave diamonds falling out like you hear about..the detail on the sides are breathtaking and the center stone is perfect size. I was worried about the height because there isnt a good profile pic in the ad, but it isnt near as tall as you think. Having a 6 month old, the shape of the prongs were important to me. This ring has the best prongs for a mother, they are smooth, rounded and sturdy. Also.........OMG! DOES IT SPARKLE!! I just can't say enough...all around amazing!
This is a beautiful ring!! The details on the band makes it that much more stunning. Paired with a paved diamond eternity band, you will not be disappoined!

Adalat is a show revolving around KD Pathak, a suave, sophisticated, witty and yet unconventional lawyer who is known as a 'Houdini' in circles of law because he can get his clients out of the tightest of situations. His success rate of acquittals is 100 percent. But most importantly KD stands not for his client, but for Justice.
KD has an amazing eye for detail and an insatiable thirst for knowledge. He always seems to know enough about every profession, and what he doesn't know he covers up/makes up with his smartness. A quick thinker.
KD steps into a case when all is doomed for the accused. All the doors are shut. When the prosecution has prepared a water tight open and shut case where even a blind man can tell that the accused is guilty. But no one can see the case from the angle KD does. He digs fervently for loopholes in the prosecution's case much to their frustration and thinking on his feet, he manages to turn the entire case around. Often through histrionics, magical gimmicks (since he has recently started learning magic ' and uses a parallel between magic and justice' that often what we see is not all' there is something beyond it), performances, which the Judge does not approve of ! And nor does his ex-love Maya (The Prosecutor who is often at the receiving end!) - But that is KD. Unstoppable, incorrigible and completely enthralling and entertaining. It is a treat to watch him perform in court week after week, tearing the toughest of cases to shreds and helping convict an evil scheming villain, and setting a poor hapless innocent victim free!

Good looking higher price ! I would like to give a five star to this chandelier, but after I receive it one of my friend told me Amazon has better price. Overstock's price is over $20 higher. Disappointed I paid $20 for the membership, overstock's not offering competitive price anymore...

Looooooove It!! 1st of all I ordered it on Friday the 4th and received in on Thursday the 10th!! I'm in love with it!! I followed the directions and looked at the picture while placing the crystal pieces on, due to one review that said they did not realize there were different sizes of the crystals. I also looked for the white gloves due to one review that said they would have wished they had found the white gloves prior to placing the crystals pieces on. I found it easy to place the crystal pieces on. I did find it easier to use one glove to pick up the crystal piece and leave my other hand free of the glove to use my finger nails to open the little wire piece to connect the crystal piece to the chandelier. My son is not an electrician but he did follow the directions and turned off the electricity and connected it while I helped him by holding the Chandelier for him. It took us about 30 min. This Chandelier is Gorgeous!! The description Overstock gives is wrong as far as the color they state the lamp has a bronze finish...Not So!! The metal part of it is black as stated but the shade itself is more of an iridescent, shimmering, sparkly, glittery whitish, light silvery hue to it ( if you will). An absolute perfect compliment to the chrome candelabra. The light bulbs are standard chandelier bulbs that you can pick up at any hardware store or neighborhood drug store that sells light bulbs. I did pick up an inexpensive light dimmer at my hardware store for about 3 bucks, I already had a light plate that I liked and wanted to keep, so all I needed to do is pick up the manual knob you turn to the brightness you want, that took my son all of 10 min to install with the electricity off of course. I was vacillating back and forth with this Chandelier or another one that was $20.00 less but I am well pleased that I spent the extra 20 bucks!! But I'm so please with this one that I'm going to purchase the other Chandelier I had my eye on for my bedroom!! Also one review said their shade was crooked once hung. I too experienced that when we 1st hung it, all I did was grab the shade and did a few firm yet not to rough tugs to the direction I needed it to go and Bam!! It was perfect!!! Classy, Elegant, Beautiful, not over stated and definitely not under stated!! My sister said, Mannnnnnnn how much did you spend on this?? About $250 or more? I said nope 

Love this light I really am very impressed with this light. For the price, it is even better. It came with probably 50 extra crystals in case some fall off or are lost. But it's quite sturdy, so I doubt I'll even use any of them. My only gripes: the instructions were photocopied and dim in spots and a bit hard to read. The "hot" wire has such microscopic writing on it I had great difficulty determining which it was. The black trim on the shade is not glued on terribly well. But please don't let my gripes take away from how thrilled I am with this product. I really love it. Sometimes I just turn it on to stare at it (it's in my entryway). I installed a Lutron dimmer on it also, which makes a huge difference. I recommend this product without reservation. Also, Overstock.com got it to me really quickly and in flawless condition. The packaging was great. This was my first purchase from them and I am sure I'll be back for more.

Beautiful This chandelier is even more beautiful in person! The assembly was extremely easy for me and I'm not super good at this kinda thing. ha! Assembly went fast. There are 3 different size crystals, so be sure you're paying attention to that when you are hanging them on the chandelier. Directions were easy to follow. We have a 16ft long island in the kitchen and I purchased 4 of these to hang above. Gorgeous! :)

Hello Becky0213, we offer a great selection of chandeliers that can accomodatea 12 foot ceiling. Please do a search for your desired length preference. Thank you for shopping with us.
is this energy efficient lighting fixture
Hello lighting hardware, unfortunately this item is not listed as energy efficient. Thank you for shopping with us.
Why did you choose this product?
I like the elegance of it, it is going in the master bedroom and the price was perfect
For the combination of modern and elegant.
I like the look of "marrying" the elegance of the crystals with the more industrial type shade. I chose it as an accent to several additional pieces I ordered today as well. Finally, the reviews published were very helpful to me in finalizing the decision to buy.
Because we like it.
number of lights. Has black/dark features without dulling the amount of light produced. a nice mix of elegant and strong. Great reviews!
Perfect for my decor
What is the diameter of the chrome ceiling plate?
Hello lhowell62, The diameter of the chrome ceiling plate is 5.1 inches. Have a great day!
the chrome plate that came with the light doesn't cover the hole in my ceiling by an inch, any suggestions on where to get one?
Hello KelseyJ, unfortunately we do not offer any larger ceiling plates. Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for shopping with us!
can this light be hung on a sloped ceiling?
Hello pharmie, this fixture can be hung on a sloped ceiling. Thank you for shopping with us! a.c.
i think it would be fine.
Does this chandelier come with a plug for an outlet with an on/off switch?
Hello beisenberg03, no, this chandelier must be hardwired. Thanks for shopping with us!
nope. you have to have it wired. it comes with a fairly short wire, so we "streched" it as long as it would go and I added more chain from my local hardware store since I have cathedral ceilings to get the right hight. Just barely enough cord. Not enough chain, so I added an almost perfect match, and you just don't notice it at all that it's not exact. I have mine on a dimmer and it works and looks fantastic.
I have an entry wall that is 18 feet tall and this would hang centered over an area about 10 feet wide. As you're going up the stairway the fixture would be on your right. Would this be the correct size fixture to place there? Also, how much does it weigh?
Hello ksremodeler, this chandelier should fit well in the area you described. This should hang down approximately 5 feet with the chain and chandelier. This chandelier weighs ten pounds. Please contact us if you need further assistance. Thanks for shopping with us!
No, it would be too small.
Is this fixture UL listed?
Hello kzangger, this fixture is UL listed. Thank you for shopping with us! Amanda
can this be used over a tub in a bathroom?
I do not see why not. My only concern is if the room gets a lot of humidty, it might corrode/tarnish over time.
do you have this in Brown?
Thank you for your question vlge. The closest one we have in brown, is the Antique Bronze 4-light Round Crystal Chandelier, item 12645624. Please check it out. Have a great day.
Would this be too overwhelming in a 11 x 8.5 size dining room in my apartment? Thanks!
It would look beautiful!!
Thank you for your question cmckeen. No, it would not be overwhelming for a room that size. Have a great day.
Not at all. Its not that big.
Am looking for a mini hanging chandelier that has a plug..
Thank you for your question summer60. Unfortunately, we do not have mini plug in chandeliers. But, we do have plug in wall sconces, Have a great day.
Would I be able to use this as a ceiling fan light kit?
Thank you for your question handyhomereno1451034523. No, unfortunately, the Indoor 4-light Chrome/ Crystal/ Metal Bubble Shade Chandelier cannot be used as a ceiling fan kit. Have a great day.
Would this fixture overwhelm a 48 inch round table? I live in an open concept condo and and my dining room table is the first thing you see when you walk up the stairs. I am hoping for a "wow" piece.
Thank you for your question cg3069. The Indoor 4-light Chrome/ Crystal/ Metal Bubble Shade Chandelier is a beauty, that's for sure and it has the wow effect. It sounds like a good match!! Have a great day.
It would be perfect . I own it and it's a wow piece
not at all, I put it in a small bathroom hanging above the freestanding sink and it looks awesome
Not overwhelming at all! I purchased this when I renovated my master bath! It's exquisite!You won't be disappointed! Better than the picture!
Not at all
Unfortunately, electrician no longer has the instructions.
Thank you for your question. Please inquire with our customer care team at 1-800-843-2446 and we should be able to get you some instructions for this product. Please let me know if you have any further questions, and thank you for shopping with us! Have a great day! Rachel
Do you have an image of this light and including canopy after installation? Not sure it was installed correctly by electrician. Thanks.
Thank you for your question scummbunnies. Unfortunately, we do not. Please refer to the instructions that came with the Indoor 4-light Chrome/ Crystal/ Metal Bubble Shade Chandelier. Have a great day.
How much wire comes with this light? Also, is it possible to purchase matching chain to extend longer than the 40 feet of chain that is included?
Hello, pardonourprogress. Hope your day is going well. The wire that comes with this light is 74.8 inches. You can purchase matching chain to extend the length of the existing one, but the wire will need to be extended as well. Please contact us if you decide to do so. Thank you for shopping with us and please feel free to get back to us with any further questions.
My first one arrived cut short, so I returned it and got another one. It had enough wire, but not enough chain for an 11 foot ceiling. I found more chain at either Lowe's or Home Depot that was the same shape exactly but not as shiny. We used it anyways and you can't tell. It had the amount of chain described in the original description by O.
Will it work on 220? I want to take it overseas?
Hello vonnie12, thank you for your interest in the Indoor 4-light Chrome/ Crystal/ Metal Bubble Shade Chandelier. This fixture does need to be hard wired. You don't plug it into the wall. Professional installation is recommended. Thank you for shopping with us, and have a great day!
is this light big enough for a 15x16 room with cathedral ceilings to hang over a bed? Or would it be better over a kitchen table that is 60'' diameter?
Perfect for the bedroom....
Hello bguseth, thank you for your interest in the Indoor 4-light Chrome/ Crystal/ Metal Bubble Shade Chandelier. This would be up to the persons personal preference. Thank you for shopping with us, and have a great day!
It's a fantastic chandelier! Probably to small for the cathedral ceilings , but perfect for the 60' table. I have had nothing but great comments :-)
Mine is hanging above the dining room table, and it is beautiful. My instinct is that it would be too small above your bed.
I put frosted bulbs in which gave the light a much nicer look. Also, I put it on a dimmer switch, so it's perfect over my kitchen table. Kind of small for over a bed from a designer perspective.
Sorry this cute little light is too small for the area. Take half the dimension of whatever it goes over and divide in half, that is the size you should use. So a 48" table would need a 24" chandelier and should be hung 30" from the table top. Just a designers opinion

Best Chandeliers for Your Home
Whether you like antique or contemporary styles, chandeliers can dress up many different rooms. It's easy to update your bedroom with a striking pendant chandelier, or add a crystal chandelier to the dining room for extra sparkle. You may have a few questions about choosing chandelier lighting that works with your style, however. Read on for tips on finding the best chandeliers for your home.
Best Light Fixtures for Making a Statement
Light fixtures can produce big design statements in a room. If something feels incomplete, even after you've decorated, chances are your lighting situation is to blame. Replacing a standard frosted glass pendant light or a boring brass chandelier with something unique and tailored for your style will pull together all the elements of a room and highlight the architecture of a home.
FAQs about Chandeliers and Pendants
Chandeliers and pendants have always been popular lighting options because they can highlight spaces and bring some pizzazz and sparkle to a room. The popularity of chandeliers and pendants has made Overstock.com's wide selection even wider and has probably left you with several questions about how to choose, hang and care for the right chandeliers and pendants. Read on to find the answers to these frequently asked questions.
Top 5 Chandelier Styles
Whether you are building your dream house or just sprucing up your current home, a chandelier is a great way to add ambiance and decoration to a room. Chandeliers and pendants aren't just for formal dining rooms. The right chandelier can look great in any room. Although chandeliers come in a wide variety of styles, let's start with the top five.
Buying Chandelier Lighting for Your Dining Room
Chandeliers are the ultimate statement piece in a house. From giant crystal chandeliers that hang from high ceilings to simple styles that reside over a family dining table, lighting fixtures have the ability to make a room glow. A chandelier that is not right for your space can seem weighed down and heavy. The wrong chandelier can also lack drama that helps make a room fabulous. If your chandelier is looking old and outdated, it might be time to update with a new style.
How to Select Kitchen Lighting
If your kitchen looks tired, why not update it with brand-new kitchen lighting? New kitchen pendant lights or a unique chandelier could be just what your space needs for a fresh makeover. In fact, the right kitchen light fixtures add that extra touch that makes a kitchen shine. Whether you want to install recessed kitchen lighting in your home or just want to update a few existing light fixtures, the following tips can help you find lighting that will last for years and keep your kitchen looking great. Read on to learn about selecting kitchen lighting for your home.
How to Clean a Chandelier
Chandeliers can be the stunning focal point of your room, but these dramatic light fixtures are also great at collecting dust and cobwebs. You can keep your chandelier sparkling by dusting it regularly and cleaning it thoroughly twice a year. To learn how to clean your chandelier using both the wet and dry methods, keep reading.
4 Things to Consider When Buying Chandelier Earrings
You're wearing your favorite 1960s-inspired dress and a pair of cute wedge sandals, but something is missing. Add just the right amount of color and shine with a shimmery new pair of chandelier earrings. Chandelier earrings get their name from their design, which mimics elaborate chandelier light fixtures. They may have tiers of sparkling, swinging gemstones or they may have layers of hammered gold medallions. Each chandelier earring style is unique and offers a bold splash of style. They go great with dresses but can also be worn with jeans and suits. To choose the perfect pair of chandelier earrings, consider these important features.
Why You Need Chandelier Earrings
If you adore fancy decor, then you will love chandelier earrings. When you enter a fancy ballroom, the first thing you see is the stunning chandelier glistening above your head. Chandelier earrings have the same effect on a smaller scale. Your eyes will automatically be drawn to the sparkling, dancing gems and shiny metal. If you're looking to expand your jewelry collection, consider earrings that look like miniature chandeliers. Many styles are available to bring color and shine to your earring assortment.
Chandelier Trends
Looking for a way to simultaneously brighten and dress up your home? Chandeliers are the perfect solution. Chandeliers are available with many arms, multiple tiers, and shades as well as with more simple designs and streamlined structures. Look for a chandelier light with a large presence for a big room and one with a smaller profile to use in a diminutive room; the size of your chandelier doesn't matter, only its size in comparison to the rest of your home decor.
Top 5 Ways to Wear Citrine Chandelier Earrings
If you love to dress in dark, neutral colors year-round, then add some citrine chandelier earrings to your wardrobe. Citrine earrings will add bright, glowing light to any simple outfit without diluting the edginess you desire in your look. Like the sparkling yellow eyes of a beautiful owl in the night, citrine jewelry accents an outfit with rich yellow hues. Keep several pairs of lovely chandelier earrings handy, and it will be easy to accessorize jeans, dresses and skirts with this extravagant gemstone jewelry.
How to Choose a Chandelier
Chandeliers are more than just a way to illuminate a room. They add style and become part of the home decor. Like any decorative piece, the right chandelier can make a big difference in the look and feel of a room. A large or ornate chandelier will overwhelm a small living space, and a small, simple one will not look right in a formal dining room. Here's how to choose the best lighting for your home.
Best Places to Hang Mini Chandeliers
A glistening chandelier can add that little extra something to your home decor, but you don't need to go big to make a huge style statement. Mini chandeliers, sometimes called chandelettes, work well in a variety of settings and are a popular alternative to large, traditional chandeliers. Think of a mini chandelier as piece of jewelry for your home -- a little can go a long way. If you're not sure where you would use one, try hanging a mini chandelier in one of these places.
Best Indoor Lights for Your Home
There's no excuse for sitting in darkness with all of the affordable lights available for your home. Whether you would like some accent lighting in your entryway or efficient home lighting to illuminate your kitchen, you'll be able to buy lights easily with the following suggestions. Read on for tips on finding the best indoor lights for your home.

A History of Electric Light
On September 4, 1882, one square mile of lower Manhattan was aglow with light as the first commercial power station went into operation. Thanks to Thomas Edison's brilliance, for about 24 cents per kilowatt hour, 59 customers were provided with lights and electricity at night. By the late 1880s, the demand for that service had grown so much that small power stations could be found in many U.S. and European cities. We're still amazed by all the practical and aesthetic possibilities offered by lighting.
