Review title: This man can really write... Product review: Dennis Lehane was not familiar to me until I saw the film, Shelter Island. When I got my Kindle, back in March, I decided to see if there was a book version of the movie. Lo and behold, I discovered that Dennis Lehane was a fairly prolific author, and opted to read a book of his with which I was not familiar. It was a real page turner. I can't praise his skills highly enough. Great read!! Looking forward to his next book.

Review title: Poor engineering Product review: The white plastic teeth and plastic drive mechanism are truly a bad design. Have sent back three of these blenders, and finally gave up. Two had broken white teeth, and one of those had a motor "grinding" sound like it was under a load it couldn't handle. The third had broken white teeth and the black plastic drive mechanism the teeth fit into on the base also broke off. Did not put any of these machines under difficult stress, but was mixing smoothies, with frozen fruit pieces. Added the ingredients slowly, and if the motor started to accelerate, stopped the machine, added more liquid, and resumed. But, each of these machines tolerance for significant frozen loads was really grim. Consumer Reports really got this item wrong, wrong, wrong. Our $15.00 blender from WalMart works better!!!

You are considering whether to buy a product. You look at the reviews. Would the following review decrease or increase the chances of you buying the product? Review title: One by Richard Bach Product review: While quite esoterical, Bach lures the reader to think "outside the box" for different perspectives about the lives we are leading, have lead and could be leading otherwise. A decent follow up to "Illusions" but not as well written.
