Product review: That is exactly what I said after I finished reading the last sentence of this book.Mysteries are usually not my favorites, and I almost dropped this book after reading the first few pages(I'm glad I didn't). It's a slow starter, but it speeds up fast ( I usually read a book a week. I read this book over a weekend). Great story, great character development, great writing--I cared what was going to happen to everybody! The usual description of the book (one boy gets into a stranger's car, and two others do not) does not convey the crisis adequately. It's more that, our lives can change dramatically based on the everyday choices we make. This was my first Dennis Lehane novel, who appears to be at the peak of his craft. I really hope he wins some major awards for this book--it's that good. The characters in this book--Sean, Jimmy, and Dave, their families, and the choices they make are unforgettable. Grab this book as fast as you can and prepare to enjoy the ride!

Product review: I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing and hanging out with Kemuri on a stop of the Ska Against Racism Tour, and was blown away by the band's music. This is one of my favorite ska bands of all-time, and this CD definitely is at the top of my list. It had some really great rhythms in it, and the energy and force behind songs like Ohichyo, Minimum Wage, and Kanasimiyo always get me going. Some tunes have somewhat somber overtones, but it's all great. BTW, lead singer Fumio has NO ACCENT, even when he speaks, so there are no hindrances in enjoying this awesome CD!

Product review: I saw this crew on television in Paris & knew I'd found something good, and this CD made me feel them even more. Actually, it pretty much wrecked my ability to appreciate most American music, just because Saian does it so much BETTER...Their style is all over the map- every different kind of hip-hop is represented, and they do a great job with all of it. Each song is different from the next and you can pick out the influence of different US groups: The Beatnuts, Gangstarr, Outkast, Wu, Cypress Hill, The Roots, etc. The beats are amazing and the samples are spun creatively (ie no looping), and if you're a beatbox/vocal scratch fan, this is IT. PLUS they can sing. Definitely get this album. Even if you don't speak any French, or just a little (like me), you'll love this one just for the pure hip-hop soul.
