This is by far THE best ever that i have seen coming from the guys themselves, *N Sync. This book brings with itself the real lifes of these VERY talented guys. You are going to be SO entertain with its awesome pictures, that you won't even bother with the reading. You should read it, ofcourse, because that is the reason why they made this book. They want to let people know who they are and to also show the world that they are here to say. They are the best group ever. They don't have their 15 minutes of fame and leave. These guys make a mark wherever they go. Chris, Justin, JC, Joey, and Lance: Congratulations on your sellings and remember that GOD is on your side. I love you guys snoopy8876.

This is, by far, the best book that i have ever read that is actually written by them! To me , they are the best boy band out there and are totally different from the backstreet boys. Anyway, the book has tons of great pictures of the entire group. Most of them are super cute too. If you are a fan of Lance, JC, Joey or Chris you will absolutely love this book because there are an equal amount of pictures of each member and not all pictures of Justin. There isn't a whole lot of information on the group though, so if you are looking for a book on that, this really isn't the book for you. Although, if you want tons of great color pictures, cool quotes from all of the guys, and behind the scenes pictures of their awesome, must see, concerts, then this is a must have book to add to your collections. I am a big "N Sync fan and i support them all the way. I think they are a great group of guys and they totally deserve the loving support from all you 'N Sync fans out there. Stay 'N SYNC!

Yes, I know this book is a little pricy but I think that it is worth every dime that I spent. Sure, there isn't THAT much info on the guys themselves but there are a lot of quotes and tons and tons of pix! The book itself is mini-poster size so all of the pictures are pretty big. Most are from concerts of the tour last year and, let me tell you, these guys are adorable :o) I especially liked the last pic which was of Lance, asleep. Anyway, I recommend this book for any *NSYNC fan!

I've been reading the Christy Miller books since I was 13 years old. I love them. Then are unique books. A lot of Christian teen books aren't good because of lack of detail and feeling but, there's something about these books. Robin Jones Gunn is truly a gifted writer. She herself is a peculiar treasure and a true God-lover.
I am now 16 years old and I still read these books. (I would recommend reading the "Sierra Jensen Series" after you read the Christy Miller series.) I went on to read the Sierra Jensen series and then the finally "Christy and Todd: The College Years". All these books are remarkable. Never have I read a book, or series of books that I loved so very much.
Since this is that last book that Mrs. Gunn plans on writing of our beloved "friends" who have become very real in our lives: Christy, Todd, Katie, Doug, Tracey, Rick, Sierra, Randy, Amy, and even Wes, I make a plea to you Mrs. Gunn not to stop writing about these characters you've brought into ourlives, but, if you must, I thank you so much for doing so.(If something is spoken three times it is sealed):Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

i absolutely love the Christy Miller series. i just read all 15 books of the series over the past 2 weeks or so and i fell in love with them. this book was a good finish to the series and christy and todd finally get married. i just wished that the series would move on because this has to be the best series of books i have ever read. Ms. Gunn has written some of the best books i've ever read. she writes the wonderful relationships that people have with other people and with God. this series is great for teen girls and the characters are so life like that you will actually believe that they are real people. this is the only series i have read that has keep me this attached that i would read 4 of the books in one day. i would recomend this series to anyone that has an interest in reading whether they are christian or not.

I couldn't put it down. I hate the thought that this could be the last we see of Todd and Christy! This was a great ending to the series. The last line of the book says what we've been waiting to hear for a long time. I think the second book in this series was my favorite but this one isn't far behind. Now I want a college series about Sierra, especially after what happened to Sierra in this book. If we have another Sierra series, I am sure that we will see Todd and Christy again. Maybe we need a Todd and Christy - the early married years series. Reading this book gives you warm fuzzies in the end. I wanted to add, and they lived happily ever after! If you've never read about Todd and Christy before, start with the orginal Christy series. You'll love them.

Wow is the only word that can describe this book! It is the best book I have ever read. The releationship between Christy and Todd is amazing. I love this series and will read it over and over again. I can't wait to read the next book and see what comes next in the life of Christy and Todd. I won't go into detail because I don't want to ruin the book for anyone. This is a must read. I wish they would make a movie about this great couple. I LOVE THESE BOOKS! Read every book Robin Jones Gunn has writen. She is soooo talented and I admire her. Go Girl!

This book is sooo amazing! It's been so great to follow the Christy Miller Series, but this one is deffinately the best!

Todd Spencer has pronounced his love for Christy, but Christy still has some doubts. After coming home from a year in Switzerland, Christy is ready to start her senior year in college at Rancho Corona University with Todd and her best friend Katie. She is reunited with her friend from Wisconsin, Matt Kingsley, and finds a wonderful job. But soon, Christy finds herself in a hospital room, praying as hard as ever. What will become of the relationship between Christy and Todd? Will Christy get a chance to pronounce her love for Todd? What will happen in terms of their future?

You deffinately HAVE to read this book. My absolute favorite part was when all the characters were reunited for a very special occasion. I won't ruin the ending for you, but you HAVE to read this book. Mrs. Gunn has created another masterful book for the Christy series, and let's hope that there are more to come!!!

I have read one book in the "Christy Miller" series (enough to know the gist of the series) and I've really enjoyed "Until Tomorrow"...but "As You Wish" is definitely the best yet. I am usually not one to enjoy "teen" romances as much as I did this one, but "As You Wish" is definitely a special book. Robin Jones Gunn fills this book with realistic life experiences that we can all relate to and creates the sweetest relationship between Todd and Christy...but the book is so much more than that. Gunn does a wonderful job of illustrating the importance of having God in the center of our relationship and the joy and the peace that follow giving our life to him. It's awesome how this book flawlessly combines a growing romance and a growing faith in God. If you're a teen girl wanting a good read and/or lessons on relationships, run to the nearest bookstore and grab the "Christy and Todd-The College Years" series.

This is one of the few books I've ever read that had the perfect mix of good prose, thoughtfulness, and fun. It gives off a special type of suspense, powered by the continuous diary format, that keeps you from closing the book; you can't wait until you see what's going to happen next! There are tons of enjoyable and unusual surprises, as well as the interwoven subplots dealing with family, religion, school, romance (fake vs. real), and even some adventure that makes this book even more undeniable. I honestly don't think I'll ever read another book that can top off what Brown wrote. I even threw giggles out of pure enjoyment for it. "Entries from a Hot Pink Notebook" is a true change from meticulous and dragging prose that occurs in many other stories and should definately be both a classic and a must for any reader. I hope there's a sequel to Ben Smith's Hot Pink Notebook. It's THAT good!

I was trying to think of the highest compliment I could pay a piece of fiction, and here it is: this book is making me think about the way I live my own life -- that is, my decision to stay in the closet at work, to smile or laugh when someone says a gay "joke," etc. I had never heard of this book before stumbling across it on Amazon recently. That's a shame, because it belongs up there with "The Best Little Boy in the World" and other important coming-out stories. I wish so much that I had read this book when I was 14, I think my life would be a lot different now. I admire the fact that Todd Brown crafted a likable, human gay teenager, without falling into the trap of making him a deviant ("Mysterious Skin") or a too-beautiful-for-this-world martyr ("Dream Boy"). There aren't many novels about which I would say this, but Todd Brown: Write a sequel!!

This book is an insightful look at life of a typical teenager boy being scrutinized by critical eye of today's society. Entries From a Hot Pink Notebook is a well-written novel by a first time writer Todd D. Brown. However to fully appreciate the beauty of this book you have to be open minded and willing to accept an open look into a life of a gay teenager. Honest and sometimes heartbreaking details of main character's life, truly pain a picture of struggling teens of today. As you read this book you begin to identify with a character and sometimes even see yourself feeling anger, deception and hurt, just like he does. I truthfully had trouble putting this book down and sometimes even stayed up late in the night excitingly turning pages, wanting, learning, feeling. This book is written in a form of a diary, which personally gave a believable outlook that things described in the book, do in fact happen. As I conclude this, I strongly recommend this book to a reader who is looking for a good laugh and also a lesson on self-discovery.

At last! The book is out! After waiting months for it's publishing, it's finally here and can usually be read by many of the readers in 1-3 days! Robin Jones Gunn creates a romantic, yet friendship sort of style in this creation. I am always in agony and wondering, "Will Christy and Todd ever get together?" This story teaches about feels and emotions. Todd is wonderful guy! If only he existed in the 3D world! He puts aside time with Christy to focus on his friendship with Katie. If you're looking for an up-lifting, safe and Christian Book to reasure your Christian walk is on the right track . . READ THIS BOOK! It strengthes not only the faith of the characters, but YOUR faith as well. Upon reading this book the only thing harsh is coming to the last page and realizing, it's over. So, read this book and I guarrentee, you'll love it! In this romantic, set back novel, Christy, Todd and their friend Katie as well as other friends along the journey, tour all of Europe in just three weeks! Through staying on track with time, to meeting trains, to managing money, to Christy's annoying tour book, the friendship is built up higher for the second book. From camping, to being put up for the night in the fanciest hotel, God is Given all the Glory.

Ms. Gunn has once again written a wonderful testament to her faith. Until Tomorrow takes you back into the lives of Christy Miller and her friends. The book follows Christy, Todd, and Katie on a journey in Europe. Until Tomorrow lets you watch Todd and Christy's relationship grow and reminds the single people that God's timing is always the best. It is very hard to put down and by the end it leaves you with a smile of contentment on your face. If you are like me when I read one of Ms. Gunn's books, it also draws you even closer to the Father. The spiritual lessons packed in this book are the key to its appeal. They tear down walls and bring you to tears. If you have never read one of Robin Jones Gunn's books, I encourage you to try Until Tomorrow. It won't only be a story about friendship and romance, it may also bring about a life-altering change in your life. One review that I read commented on the fact that the book was full of "Why me, Lord?" I didn't find that to be the case at all. To the world's eyes, it may seem that it is too full of God's Word, but for a believer, it is a wonderful testament. Bravo, Ms. Gunn:)

I have read all 12 books in the Christy Miller series, about 3 times! I loved each and every one of them, but Until Tomorrow was incredible. I started the book yesterday, and finished it about an hour ago. I couldn't put it down! These books encourage and inspire me so much, and I can't wait to read the last 2 in the series! Robin, please don't end the Christy and Todd series. I love reading about these two, and all of their friends, so much. You write beautifully and your characters give me hope. Maybe my Todd Spencer is out there somewhere! Please continue to write these awesome books, and if you can, continue the story of Christy and Todd. I would love to hear more about their life together growing in Christ!

I first discovered this book while on vacation at Mardi Gras, it has 7 different recipes for Gumbo, humorous Cajun Poetry & a wealth of historical information. Personally I liked the Shrimp Creole, The Zydeco Chicken & The Mardi Gras King Cake Best; Great Choice!

It just doesn't get any better than this, here's a wonderful book that captures the French Quarter and the Big Easy at its absolute best. If you think cookbooks are old news & that it's all been said & done before, dare to be proven wrong by this fantastic book, it is well written by a very knowledgeable chef! Emeril look out, Todd St. Pierre (A native of South Louisiana and a real Cajun) is a talent to be reckoned with!!!

This is a really good choice when it comes to New Orleans cookbooks, you can't go wrong with these easy to follow and delicious recipes. The author suggests other ingredients/substitutes if a particular food item is unavailable in your area. The Mardi Gras King Cake is outstanding.

Now Drew Barrymore is known as a star by younger generation through the hit movies like "The Wedding Singer" and "Charlie's Angels," but she was once remembered as wide-eyed, screaming little girl Gertie of "ET." But later on, she got involved in alcohol- and drug- related problems. After her rehabilitation in hospital she decided to confess what she felt during the nightmare. In 1990, then, "Little Girl Lost" was published.
Some thought, and even now may think, that the book is trying to exploit her scandal, but that is not simply true. The book records minutely her wild days after her sudden fame, but Drew does not lose her level-headed attitudes on her past, and honestly tells what happened in her life.

The book's contents cover the events from her birth to her day of recovery at fourteen, and naturally considerable part is devoted to her days of decline into drinking and drug. Drew doesn't conceal the truth about her personality, difficult relationship with her mother, many adventures resulting from her behavior, and hard days in the hospital. Her first-hand knowledge is, however, what many teenagers would feel in their own life, and probably many teens and adults alike can relate to the honest Drew; that is the best past of the book, and Drew's harrowing personal experience must not be dismissed as a simple, usual, celebrity's gossip you will forget next day.

And thanks to her wise decision, the book includes many pages recording her good days in Hollywood. The most memorable is her memoir during the shooting of "ET" and her friendship with the director Steven Spielberg. Her recollection is full of happy episodes, which are as touching as the film itself, and it is easy to understand that the movie means a lot to them. She also remembers her funny tall tales she made before Spielberg at the audition for "ET," and nervous feelings at her appearance on TV "Saturday Night Live" as a host. Other co-workers too appear in her book (one of them is Stephen King), and it is interesting to read those pages.

"Little Girl Lost" consists two narratives: Drew's own voice written (or probably recorded) in the first-person narrative, and contributor Todd Golds's third-person commentary explaining the background of her life, which includes comments by people around her including Jaid, Drew's mother. Both tell her life one after the other, so the book succeeds in not giving one-sided view on things around her. The book is written well-balanced, and also gives a brief and comprehensive history of famous Barrymore family (of course, you knew she belongs to the legendary Barrymores? If not, it's time.)

There are so many thing I want to talk, but about the rest, you buy the book and read it. The book is readable, and her very realistic account of her wild days, I confess, is gripping and absorbing. Some people say it is sad, and they are right. But she made it; she survived; and after knowing how she did it, you come to like her all the more.

This book was the most amazing book i've ever read! i never read books but this one definatly kept me interested. Ever since i read it Drew has definatly been my idole for getting out of the crap that she was in. I am 15 years old and i just finnished reading it about a month ago. All my friends do drugs but not i b/c i know what kind of stuff it can me into and i don't want the same things that happend to Drew happen to me as well. She's my hero for learning from her mistakes and dealing with then even though it hurt her. She's my hero for telling her father that she's not going to send him any more money. She's my hero for learning so much about life at one time and handleing it so well. She's my hero for being herself. She feels like a sister to me now because i feel that after reading that book somehow we bacame closer, even though i've never met her before. I think i feel like she's told me one of her big secrets or something. I definatly look up to her now and i love her for who she is.

when I first started reading her book, I got into it so much I could not put it down! It's taught me the harmful things drugs can do to your life and that they aren't as fun as they seem. It's also changed my opinion on Drew Barrymore. I didn't like her so much before but now I totally love her! she's really cool and I hope that I can come out with the strength like she did in her book. REcovering from a drug addiction is one of the most complicated things to do in life. And a lot of people wouldn't be alive today, much less continuing on a career like she did. I really admire Drew for her strength and character. She has a wonderful and bright personality. I hope that her message and story reaches out to others as it did me.

WINDOWS NT/2000
Thin Client Solutions
Implementing Terminal Services and Citrix MetaFrame
AUTHOR: Todd W. Mathers
PUBLISHER: New Riders
REVIEWED BY: Barbara Rhoades

BOOK REVIEW: Windows NT/2000 reminds a reader of "War and Peace" in that it contains over 800 pages of in-depth information. The font is a fairly readable size.

Author's note, tips, warnings and many graphical examples can be found throughout the book. The Content section has 13 pages while the Index contains 44 information packed pages. With this much reference material, the reader should not lack the ability to locate the information he/she is seeking. Just in case this isn't enough, the book is divided into Parts and each Part lists what the Chapters of that Part contain.

If the reader is building a "Windows NT or 200 thin client system", Windows NT/200, Thin Client Solutions, Implementing Terminal Services and Citrix MetaFrame should provide the answers.

This book is VERY good for those that know the basic structures of computer and server architecture and are implementing Citrix for the first time. The ... bucks is worth it if you want a citrix book that will give you tips and tricks on terminal servers and citrix metaframe. It's also one of those books that you can't put down just because it's filled with SOOOO much information (It's only day 2 and I'm on page 100). Word for the wise: don't buy this book just for getting certified. That's not it's purpose? The book is intended to familiarize citrix users and administrators with the envirenment.

GO GET IT NOW!

A great book. The author lists out the common problems facing by the users. I do not have any experience in Citrix. But my boss requires me to install and implement in short of time. I use the installation guide from the software. It is not useful. My server always down after install the software. All users are angry. After reading this book, I found that I miss a lot of things such as IE4 installation problems, tunning and etc. So I think if you want to implement Citrix successful, read this book firetly.

Everything you could possibly need to know about Mountain Bike repairs. From how to adjust your V-brakes to how to install bottom brackets this is the only book you will need. Great maintenance tips on cleaning and maintaining your bike. You will never have to visit a repair shop again.

Lennard is a great guy and great mechanic. He has written the best book available for anyone wanting to learn beginning to advanced mountain bicycle maintenance. THIS BOOK DOES NOT COVER ROAD BIKES. I cannot wait until he comes out with a book for road bike mainenance.

and the most current too. It teaches you how to make simple adjustments in your brakes all the way to installing a bottom bracket. It even teaches you how to build your own wheels. It is so clear and easy to use, you could build your own bike with it. Showing how things work with easy to follow instructions and diagrams. I recommend this book to all who would like to maintain their own bicycles.

Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes shocking, VTH is a great collection of the most innovative and stirring poems written in the past fifty years. Tossing out the rules established by great poets before them, the 26 poets in this book explore a variety of topics, from an obsession of someone's butt to getting a magnifying glass for your birthday to a love letter to a specific part of an ex lover's body. Do yourself a favor and liberate your mind from the dated guidelines of antique poety. This book shattered my preconcieved idea of poetry, picked it up and glued it back together, this time with more attitude and freedom. And more passion. Definately more passion.

I will begin this review by telling you that this is the most amazing collection of poetry I have ever read. Verses that Hurt taught me that poetry could be fun, unapologetic, and cut through your soul like a rusty double edged knife. One year after reading this book, I began writing my own poetry, slamming with my work, getting it published, and eventually representing Austin at the National Poetry Slam in Providence, RI. All in one year, and all largely due to this book. To say that a single book can profoundly change your life and the way you look at the world is a bit too Oprah Book Club for me, but I would be lying if I said that wasn't the case with Verses.

Verses that Hurt begins with the hard-hitting words of Penny Arcade's "Manifesto." The moment I read this poem, I knew I would be hooked on this collection. Her poem begins with, "This is my personal message to all you careerist, slime-bucket, fame-seeking, psychofantic, weak-worded, same-voiced..." I could go on, but you get the idea. It really just screamed to me, "Poetry is POWER!"

Tish Benson's "U BE DOIN IT" is an amazing poetic representation of jazz and sound: "deBOOPde bEE bOPdeBoPdeBop da Bang bANG" - BRILLIANT!

Matthew Courtney's "A Dream Never Dreamed of Sonny Bono & Don Knotts" captures everything that wordplay has the potential to become.

Anne Elliott is perhaps my favorite poet in this book. She slams it all in your face, but does so with a subtle creepiness that is truly out of this world! DEFINATELY check out "something turned over" and "Trojan Love Poems." In fact, I dare you to read "Trojan Love Poems" out loud without crying. I super dog dare ya'!

Shut-Up Shelly does amazing things with word placement on the page. Also the content of "mantra" really speaks to the forlorn nature of our generations: "My life is ----/I hate my life/My life sucks/It's a mantra!"

Finally, Edwin Torres, who is always the craziest poet in just about any collection, does some very powerful work in this collection. Check out "Power Round" and "The Modern Phaullus."

In short, this is no grandmother's book of poetry. The plethora of poetic device used in this collection kicks any other anthology out of the water! BUY THIS BOOK TODAY, become a poet tomorrow.

I loved this book, and my friend is currently holding it hostage. It has all different types of styles from females as well as males and minorities. the book really peaked my curiosity to the wonderful world of poetry and spoken word. John S Hall was my favorite and I've found out he has a band. It's definitely a great buy!
