Not for me.  I have several friends who recommended, but this does not dissolve well in cold liquids.  I found I had to use more of this brand than other stevia brands.

If you like it, you like it... and if you don't, you don't... That is true of almost all music and art.  And I like this!

This book has a good story-line competently handled.  What really gets one is the unusual and very amusing style of writing.  You're either going to like it or hate it.  I loved it!  give it a try.

Here is a composer that obviously writes for the sheer enjoyment of it. The music is melodic, fresh, well put together, and well instrumented. Unless you must always have a masterpiece, it is suggested that you give it a try. There is nothing to dislike within its conservative framework, and much that bespeaks of sincerity and joy.

It was through Amazon that I became interested in Benson. It was one of those -if you like this you might like this sort of thing after doing a bunch of pop-rock searchs. One Miss & Lapaco were great finds and this is also a good record. Not great but certainly good. He has matured as a songwriter particularly in the lyric dept. He has grown up a bit and it shows. Benson shows a lot of influences on this record. I hear Spector and the Ronettes on the Pledge, and the Beatles here and there. A couple of the songs are fillers but for the most part quite engaging. His voice is more self assured and it has a cool mix. If you like pop-rock stuff...considering the shortage of good stuff around, you should like this

this book probably isn't good for you. But, then, if you are reading it, you probably aren't looking for something good for you, are you? If you are reading this review and this novel, odds are that you will like it, because it isn't the kind of thing that many people just stumble across on accident, in'it?

I was intrigued to see if Steffen Piper could make the transition from poet to novelist, and, to be frank, my expectations were fairly low (because of the transition...his posts on Community Fora here are always entertaining, otherwise I would have passed on this, and I would not have known what I missed). My expectations were greatly surpassed.

I think that it is fair, here, to mention what I think that the author's intention was. A wealth of reasons exist to write a book, running the gamut from wealth to personal exposition. I think that Mr. Piper's intention was therapeutic. I was introduced to this concept by the Doctoral Thesis of one J.P. Dil from the University of Canterbury and his work on Murakami Haruki. This was an interesting and novel concept to me, but it explains much literature out there, including Mr. Piper's fine effort.

His stated intention was to craft a tale wherein the reader would be unable to stomach the main characters by halfway through the novel. If this is true, and I am wrong about what I think his point was, then he failed. I never felt any kind of hate for the characters, merely compassion. Neither "Sebastian" nor "Qianqian" are hatable people, really. Rather, they are sad souls who are looking for some comfort together after having been tossed ashore from by the tides of an uncaring sea, whose unpredictable vicissitudes left them with little consolation but one another. Clearly, they found something together that brought them both happiness, of sorts, and clearly, they couldn't stay together, no matter how much each of them wanted it. If I am right, though, and this novel serves a therapeutic purpose, it does so admirably.

Yellow Fever is a well-written study of a binary system with ancillary characters who seem to cause the wobble of the main parties. These other characters often cause Qianqian's bad behavior and her estrangement from Sebastian. Perhaps the saddest, but most fitting, aspect of it is the feeling of encountering two individuals at a low point in their lives, with the vicarious, voyeuristic feeling of watching a relationship irretrievably decay.

By the end, I felt some sorrow for each of the characters. Neither of them found what they were looking for in the long run, but they did find some temporary comfort, a respite from the sorrows and the misery of their loneliness.

From the moment I saw this item I had to try it. I am curious by nature and a huge skeptic of anything that I have not seen or proven for myself, so I ordered it partly for the experiment and curiousity and partly wanting the utility of it if it indeed performed.

After unpacking it I was struck by the look and feel of it. It is one of those things that if you see it sitting around, you just have to pick it up. The reward for doing so is an odd simple delight. The shape and weight makes it pleasing to hold in the hand and it fits perfectly in the palm. I feel a little bit silly devoting even this many words to such a thing, but you might relate if you tried it.

Next came the test. I handled onion and garlic so that my hands smelled like those of line-cook on a cruise ship. I then rubbed the egg through my hands under running water as if it were a bar of soap. I thought to myself while doing so, "surely this can't work". Thirty seconds and a few sniffs later I had proven myself wrong- no odor on my hands whatsoever! I don't know or care how it works, the fact that it does is good enough for me. As an added bonus it looks great on the counter and always stands it- self up straight like one of those "weebles people" I knew as a child. If you have kids they might engoy tilting it on it's side to watch it bounce straight back up (OK I admit it, I enjoy that too).

It's pretty good.  I like the aroma and if grind to your preference it might actually be a pretty tasty roast.

It has worked for me. Have had wonderful relaxation and contentment from listening to this. Only you can say how this will work for you, so go on and give it a try. Very well done, and I bet you'll like it as well.

I heard a couple of pieces of the CD on the radio, which I liked a lot,  and then read a very favorable review of it, but it turned
out to be less enjoyable than I had hoped.  Maybe if I had given it another listen or two, I might have felt better about it.  I
wouldn't want to dissuade anyone from trying it.

Not what I wanted but it might be what you want

The taste is okay after a couple of bites.  It's has a lots of great ingredients. It's worth it to try it.  You may like it.
