Title: Lemon Tree offers uniquely balanced view of Israel's history Review: Painstakingly well documented and accurate human story of the impossibility of two cultures claiming the same homeland. Both stories are compelling. There are no rights or wrongs in this hopeless struggle. The intransigence of both sides, but sadly moreso on the part of Israeli leaders ensures a future of distrust.

Positive

Title: kind of ugly, if you read between the lines Review: i read this book because of its good reviews and because, having grown up around them, i love siamese cats. this book, however -- i'm unsure if it's because it's british, or because it's a product of the 1950s, or both -- really turned me off with its depiction of pet ownership.when you strip away the author's admittedly charming anthropomorphisms of the animals around her, the story reads as such: a couple buys a purebred siamese cat to live an outdoor/indoor life and catch mice in a neighborhood where cats and other pets are not kept indoors, seldom spayed or neutered, and often fight. the resulting pregnancies (spare one planned one) and injuries weren't terribly pleasant to read about, with or without that charming veneer.

Negative

Title: Wouldn't buy it again Review: Very dissatisfied with this coffeemaker. If you don't have the handle in just the right position, the filter fills up with coffee and will not release it into the pot. Can be extremely messy, believe me! Also, the pot itself is very dangerous. There is a hole at the top of the handle where hot steam escapes and could cause a bad burn. I have contacted customer service and received no satisfaction. I was told to hold the pot at the bottom of the handle. Try holding a full pot of coffee at the bottom of the handle while pouring. Right! No more DeLonghi for me. This coffeepot needs to go back to R&D Is the review positive or negative?
