Review title: I Tried Product review: This book irritated me on many levels; not that the writing was poor or the plot weak. In fact, the plot, the premise, the writing were good--unfortunately the characters didn't pull it off or keep me interested because they were all kinda indifferent or unlikable.I read somewhere the number one reason people keep reading a work of fiction--regardless of plot--is because they care about someone in the book.In this book, I was hoping they would all drown by the end of the story...

Review title: Should be called Aqua-POOR Product review: I bought this advanced therapy healing ointment based on other reviews and wish I had tried a sample first. This is the worst product I've ever used on my hands. It's no better than vaseline. It NEVER dries and get all over my clothing and whatever else I touch. It leaves fingerprints everywhere. I can't believe the other rave reviews on this stuff. I used it once and returned it. What a waste of money! I can't stand how it never dries or softens your hands at all. Use vaseline -- it's much cheaper.

Product review: This is a solid album, but it really is more a continuation of Nunn's solo career, lacking the distinctive songwriting contribution of John Crawford. Buy this if you're a fan of Terri Nunn's singing, not of Berlin's quirkier vision.
