Title: Not a book for serious naturalists Review: The book is well organized and has the appearance of being handy, but is seriously incomplete. I'm a botanist, with research in the Sierra, and have tried several different resources in the field. Many plant species, common throughout the Sierra, have no mention in the book. If you happen across a plant that is covered by the book, the information is usually good, but what good is the book if most plants are not covered? Many photo-based field guides exclude the vast majority of species, because it's too costly and unfeasible to publish a book that thorough. However, a photo-based field guide should at least include all the most common species, which is where I believe this book falls short. Is this product review negative?

Title: Your flashforward? Not buying the book. Review: The story starts off strong, mainly because of the premise only, but the author EPICALLY FAILS at delivering a coherent end to this story. Reading the book felt like reading the writing of a sane person slowly devolving into insanity (or doing some crazy drugs) whilst writing the book. Seriously. The latter half of the book is awful. You're better off taking the idea (everyone in the world blacks out and sees a vision of the future) and using your imagination. Trust me, it'll be a better story. Is this product review negative?

Title: Form and Style 5 - Personality 0 Review: To put my comments in perspective, I have to admit that I loved the movie with James Garner and Sally Fields...I expected that there would be something in the book that would ring true with the movie but I was quite mistaken.Putting that aspect of the story aside, I found none of the characters in this novella to be engaging other than wondering just how annoying, petty and pathetic they could possibly be.On the other hand, I found the writing itself to be quite well done. The author's grasp of dialogue was exceptional. He infused every conversation with the fullness of characterization. If only these people had something important to say or had designs that were something beyond their own selfish needs. Is this product review negative?

Title: YES, You Can!!! Review: I did it, and so can you. Right down to going to the fabulous New York Cake and Bakery Dist. store in NYC, I followed all her easy instructions. The pearlized, powder for painting the icing made my cake shimmer like nothing I'd created before. People gave me compliments on a party cake I made for 3 days straight! I felt almost guilty for plagarizing, but Margaret Braun shares her secrets with such generosity! Reading more like a diary than a cookbook, "Cakewalk..." is a love letter from her to the cake decorating enthusiast. If you are ready to take your art one step further, then this inspiring book is absolutely for you. Is this product review negative?
