Product review: This book is basically just precisely what the TI lab manuals have in them. In fact, this book poorly explains most topics, and it does not provide proper explanation of the example code. Further, the labs are basically done for you! There is actually nothing to do except run the labs and complete a few mundane tasks. My professor and TA even said this book was poor as textbooks go. I've read other books on programming microcontrollers, CPUs, etc., and those have had full explanations of the given code examples. Much of the information in this book simply seems to assume you already know the material.

Review title: Good writing + bad plot + tepid sex = disappointing book . Product review: There is no doubt that Ms. Welsh can write. Her characters are well drawn and likable and the plot (albeit a contrived one) is presented in a fairly realistic fashion. Too bad the sex scenes are so flat and lifeless. With a word like 'Romantic' in the title I was hoping for a little more emotional spark between the characters, but that proved not to be the case. The sex was a meaningless game to them. Still the end result did not turn me off enough to pass on anything else written by Welsh, I just hope to have better luck next time.

Hamilton always delivers! Product review: In this start of what I hope will be a new series, Hamilton delivers her usual combination of darkness, action, sensuality, and supernaturaal. She handles the new topic, the fae, with an dge. Her heroine is, of course, tiny, but extremely tough and capable, yet sensitive to the feelings of her friends. Very well-dimensioned charcters, great plot, constant on-the-move action. A great read. Highly recommended for fans of the genre.

Review title: Poorly Interpreted Product review: This book is so riddled with inaccuracies that even Mr. Neimark doesn't recommend it. I have attended workshops with Mr. Neimark and all I can say is "Run, don't walk, the other way."
