Title: Do not buy this item... Product review: My Irish Setter has a hot spot problem. I have used the traditional E-collar on her for years. I decided to use a product where she could see through the sides, and would be softer than the traditional collar. The collar was so short from neck to snout that she could easily reach her hot spot. Actually, that would have happened if I could have put it on her! However, that did not happen. She has been trained for bird hunting and the sound of the snaps was intolerable to her. I tried to mail it back to the seller, but the cost of postage was greater than the cost of the item. There was no return guarantee with the product. I really do not recommend this product. When I use the traditional collar, it is secured with a regular leather dog collar. It slides on easily and she cannot remove it. It also stops her from pilfering slippers, shoes, tissues, etc. when she is wearing it. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?

Title: Good Irish historical novel Product review: Moore researched 19th-century Ireland extensively to write this novel that convincingly portrays that tormented period in history. The characters are strong, the historical details are impeccable, and the prose is lilting. I especially enjoyed the subplot about Grace's brother Sean and the Irish revolutionaries. However, I did find Bram Donnelly's character to be a bit over-the-top. The subject of spousal abuse was an interesting one to include, but I wish the author had given Donnelly at least one or two redeeming qualities. (His character is like Satan himself, and Grace is God. A bit much there.) Lastly, this is not a literary novel about Ireland, but it is a good historical novel with lovely prose, so sit back and relax for an easy read that accurately portrays an important time in Irish history.

Title: Not my cup of tea... Product review: I love self help books but this one didn't work for me. I didn't like the style of writing or the belief that all you have to do is think about what you want and it will happen. That is as good as the advice gets... obviously for some it works but it isn't my cup of tea. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
