Review title: Pretty with little power Product review: I bought the Saachi grinder, as my old great-working Krups is red and didn't match my new granite kitchen. This is a beautiful grinder, but it has little power and only half empties after grinding, requiring the brush to clean it out. I returned the grinder after trying three grindings with the same poor effect. I want my outdated, mismatched Krups back!

Review title: The Easy Way to Teach Letter-Writing Product review: I can't wait to get the new addition. I teach 7-8th grade reading/writing handicapped middle schoolers--and FREEBIES totally solves my problems with teaching letter-writing. They can't wait to get their requests in the mail, and to receive their answers. It's one of the hits of the year--especially the large section on Sports Stuff!!

Product review: Good beginning, predictable middle, horrible sappy sentimental cowardly ending. Having set himself up with some reasonably interesting characters, placed them in a moral dilemna that might create tragedy, comedy, or god forbid, some sort of character growth, the author either loses interest or his mind and resolves the whole matter with a cheap, lazy and pointless deus ex machina. What was shaping toward an interesting story degenerates into nothing more than a trite, saccharine tear jerker. Instead of facing the consequences of their actions or making decisions about the course of their lives, his characters just dissolve into maudlin stereotypes and go weeping into the sunset. Somebody rent this guy a moral compass, he's lost! Bleehch!

Review title: Starts well, ends crazily Product review: I bought this book while on vacation in Italy - it was the only novel in English by a literary type author in the bookstore. I knew De Lillo was supposed to be a great author and so I bought it. Also, I am interested in reading about financial figures like George Soros or Warren Buffet.The book reminds me of the movie Apocalypse Now which starts wonderfully with great cinematography and eventually descends into craziness and nonsense IMHO. This book starts well with a high concept and great writing style and then gradually descends into implausibility, nonsense etc. The financial transactions didn't seem very plausible to me and the motivation didn't make sense any more and the events at the end of the day involved far too much coincidence to be plausible.Unless of course the latter parts of the day are all meant to be some psychotic episode.
