This is not a book I would normally have picked off a bookshelf to read, but it sort of fell into my hands through hubby's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~491174792836 Mon, 9 Nov 2009 17:37:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_491174792836?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_464967995012?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - While I have heard of "The Bell Witch" haunting, I never really read much detail about it.  This book must be the definitive work on the Bell witch of Tennessee, and though it is classified as a novel, it appears to be pretty much an eyewitness... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~464967995012 Thu, 26 Mar 2009 15:53:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_464967995012?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_464472477316?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - I'm always surprised at the number of people who don't know the name Acker Bilk.  Theirmemory is usually jogged when I mention "Stranger on the Shore", which was the fifrst ever hit to hit Number One in both the US and across the pond in England,... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~464472477316 Sat, 21 Mar 2009 16:56:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_464472477316?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_461985713796?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - Yes! If you’re in need of an escape from the daily grind, here ya go! Though I must admit that I usually like a nice, thick, factual history-laden novel, I’m not so snobbish that I’m above reading something that’s purely... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~461985713796 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 15:46:13 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_461985713796?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_461976735364?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - If you like animals, spooky stories, or folklore, this book is for you! It’s my favorite read in a long time. The authors, Randy Russell and Janet Barnett, are accomplished chroniclers of folklore who are particularly well-versed in... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~461976735364 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 14:14:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_461976735364?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_461247450756?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This book should be titled "Please treat your pets well and support animal rights." While Sylvia does provide stories that support her contention that all ANIMALS go to heaven, she spends most of the book arguing for animal rights and the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~461247450756 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 13:03:36 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_461247450756?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435563695748?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - Stephen King, even on a bad day, is better than most. And sometimes you're just not in the mood to start a novel, so shorter stories are what you want to pick. If you're already a fan of Steve's, then you'll love this collection, even with some... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435563695748 Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:44:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435563695748?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435557797508?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This is a good thriller of about 350 pages that features a blind woman with extraordinary powers (notice I did not say supernatural), and a recently promoted lieutenant on the police force, also female. The strongest thing they share is probably... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435557797508 Mon, 30 Jun 2008 16:04:02 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435557797508?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435016535684?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This riveting book purports to be a true story, and is categorized under several nonfiction labels. Some characters have been made up or dramatized, but many of the facts presented in the story, and key characters depicted, do appear to be real... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435016535684 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:56:55 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435016535684?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_435002576516?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - "The Book of Totally Useless Information" is not. It contains useFUL information on many of its pages. As well, almost all of the information contained is highly entertaining. It is not just "trivia" information - much of it explains how things work... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~435002576516 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 18:12:33 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_435002576516?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434182590084?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - Music has the ability to take us to a certain time and place, almost like nothing else besides certain smells of childhood. But even more than most of my beloved albums, The Greatest Hits of the Mamas and Papas immediately transports me back to the 60's... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434182590084 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 18:37:16 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434182590084?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434172497540?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This very educational novel grips the reader pretty much right from the start, and builds, layer upon layer; almost like archaeological ruins are built strata upon strata. It was such a page-turner that I literally stayed up all night on TWO nights to... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434172497540 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:09:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434172497540?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_434052173444?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This collection of short stories is similar to the annual contests that used to appear in Mary Higgins Clark's Mystery Magazine. She would assign several apparently unrelated objects and invite readers to write a story incorporating at least three of... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~434052173444 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 17:32:56 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_434052173444?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_433542631044?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This oversized book is short on words but long on the vibrant color illustrations! In fact, the entire story is basically told through pictures, with minimal reading (three paragraphs throughout the whole book) and a few signs to read only. An adult... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433542631044 Fri, 13 Jun 2008 01:07:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433542631044?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_433540992644?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - I've pretty much always been one to compose my own personal prayers, but a surprising number of people lack confidence in doing so. Others may have gotten out of the habit of spontaneous prayer, or perhaps even have suffered a crisis of faith.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading it to my nieces, and plan to keep it for my future grandchildren as well. The illustrations are fantastic, evoking a gently spooky mood... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~433420930692 Wed, 11 Jun 2008 23:30:48 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_433420930692?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_429442764420?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - When I saw this thin paperback of supposedly "hard-boiled crime," purporting to be by Stephen King, I could hardly believe it! After all, it's short, not preceded by a hardback, and I'd not heard of it. But sure enough, it is allegedly by THE Stephen... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~429442764420 Fri, 9 May 2008 17:28:00 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_429442764420?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_428975689348?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This is the first Tess Gerritsen novel I've read, and it certainly won't be the last. Gerritsen is a former practicing internist who switched careers to writing in order to have more time at home with her family. I didn't know this when I first got... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~428975689348 Tue, 6 May 2008 02:33:58 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_428975689348?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_426686844548?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - This latest Stephen King novel is an excellent character study of two men who have sort of won life's crap lottery; the one where everything turns to ka-ka instead of gold. Edgar Freemantle is a successful construction magnate whose entire life is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~426686844548 Fri, 18 Apr 2008 15:11:43 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_426686844548?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_424384106116?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - Yeah! The South's Gonna Do It Again with this collection of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Especially for those of us who were around when they recorded these Southern Rock classics!

Many feature the bent-note or slip-note he is famous for (though he did not invent it). This is where the piano player sort of slides to the next note, or... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~424327548548 Mon, 31 Mar 2008 18:30:23 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_424327548548?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_424177143428?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bonnieleigh - Oh yeah, Charlie rocks and rolls, performs wonderful country, and is a master at (white-boy) blues! He suffered from the same problem as many really high quality performers - he could not be pigeon-holed into a proper popular category or genre.
