Product review: THE DISTANT ECHO is one of the best stories I've read in months! It grabbed me on the first page and I kept reading it page after page. Val McDermid tells a definately compelling story with deep insight into her characters. It is filled with suspense and it gallops along. Wow! I look forward to reading all of her 5 star books!

Review title: Excel is definitely one of my personal favourites (No Joke) Product review: I don't know why I bought this album, but I sure am glad that I did. I always considered Excel more Heavy Alternative than Heavy Metal, but all there songs are fast and heavy, albeit with more of a Punk / Alternative feel to them than anything else. A friend of mine said about them "Nothing special, there are tons of bands like this out there", but he was definitely wrong! It's too bad they never achieved mainstream popularity and made it big, because I would have loved to hear what they would have come out with next. Oh, and song 4 from this album starts off amazingly like "Enter Sandman", but it was released 2 years before Metallica's "black" album, so you can judge their talent level for yourself! A definite recommendation.

Review title: A feel good book Product review: While the book was light and fluffy it was well written and had good character development. I liked all the twists and turns, the last 100 pages were hard to put down!!! I found I liked it better than Bridget Jone's Diary.

Product review: My first experience with Absinthe blind was when a band I was in in ChamBana opened up for them at a party(if anyone saw it, I was the singer in a poets shirt, black velvet pants, and black nail polish! :-) ), unfortunately, I was sick so I had to leave before I got to see them play. I finally caught them at a club and I was greatly impressed! Love the band, weird psychedelic jams and all sorts of good stuff.
