The Thief with 20 faces
342398
Akira seems like your normal 4th grader.  He goes to school, participates on the student council and cooks breakfast for his moms every morning.  But he really is the mysterious 20 Faces, a "gentleman thief" who steals whatever his parents ask him to.  One night while hiding from the police he meets a young girl who instantly falls in love with him.  But can a thief really find true love?

CLAMP has a wonderful knack for coming up with unique stories, and this is no exception.  The characters are very memorable and the art is beautiful.  However, it lacks some of the reality and depth of their better works, making this seem weak compared to their other books.  A good read, but if you are looking for something exciting I would try Cardcaptor Sakura.

In 1489 Avisa Baglatoni and her friend Lucia are the only female members of Bologna's prestigious locksmith and silversmith guild. Admittance of women into any guild would have been extremely rare; Cooper gives Avisa membership based on her widowhood and Lucia, one supposes, because her silversmith father is ill and she is unmarried.

Avisa's problems begin when she chooses to hide the fact that a young man she recently employed is half Jewish. Since Jews are forbidden to learn guild trained skills, her guild membership, possessions, and even life are at stake. When Bologna's silver treasure is stolen, the mayor's nephew, who repeatedly forces his unwanted attentions on the attractive young widow, suspects Avisa's deception and tries to link her and Bologna's Jewish Ghetto to the theft. After hearing stories of the persecution of Jews in Spain, Avisa realizes that her safety depends on her solving the mystery of the missing treasure.

Of historical interest is the physical description of Bologna, the unruly students who attend Europe's prestigious first university, the craft guilds, the reigning duke who employs mercenaries, or condottieri, to repel the advancing French armies, and the character of Dorotea, loosely based on the artist Sofonisba Anguissola. The story, however, is rather flat and the layout of the paperback version jarring with one repeated paragraph and many wide spaces between sentences. While Cooper acknowledges help from the Society for Creative Anachronism, an indication of other sources used is also needed.

This book was right on time. We often perceive identity thieves to be computer geeks or crackers (HACKERS are not malicious)sitting at their desks breaking all kinds of computer security codes and language and taking advantage of innocent people. This books shows that that is not always the case. Very often it is someone who simply has the time, the access and most of all, the opportunity.

The character here is the best example of all those characteristics. She was needy in more ways than one and Ms. Monroe humanized the heinous act of stealing someone's life from them. Apparently after being a victim, she could write about it better than most. Good for her! Good story. Good writing.

This camera is SO good, mine was stolen! Fortunately, video transfer to your computer is so easy, I have saved copies. I keep looking on YouTube for a video of an alpaca farm, a pumpkin patch, my granddaughter, and my husband dancing in his "long johns". That'll finger the thief. It may be that I left it somewhere and it was just picked up...no ID on it (hint). I didn't rate "customer service" because I didn't need it.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Flip-UltraHD-Video-Camera-Black-8-GB-2-Hours-3rd-Generation-NEWEST-MODEL/dp/B0040702HA/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Flip UltraHD Video Camera - Black, 8 GB, 2 Hours (3rd Generation) NEWEST MODEL</a>

A good photographic portrait amuses and delights the viewer. A great one stabs you through the eye, twists the cortex, and bleeds out a richer red of humanity than you imagined possible. Faces of Harley by Richard Ressman, M.D. is such a book. Funny, ironic, beautiful, menacing, and always real, the riders depicted in this series demand attention. Demand and deserve respect. With braided beards, leather scull caps, ink, and imperfect orthodontia the Harley characters become animated before your eyes by the mastery of the photographers skill. This is a celebration of the beauty of human diversity. Quality paper and printing make for an enjoyable compliment to anyones art book collection.

Several of the eyes are broken... you have a limited number of them.  The instruction video is labeled for a rabbit video-  and despite the weird label, was actually about using the minnow.

George is a natural sneak, and his talents serve him well when he's stolen by a couple of comically clumsy teachers and brought to Pilfer Academy, where thievery is the core curriculum. Even the school itself was stolen from France! At first, George concentrates on his studies and enjoys his status as teacher's pet, but a nighttime run-in with a toddler and her teddy bear leave him feeling conflicted. Is there really such a thing as a good thief? A funny & clever story for fans of Eva Ibbotson & Roald Dahl.

A cards are on good stock which I received very soon after placing my order. I am so impressed by all the detail in the art work.  I do wish however, that there were 20 cards and envelopes in the box instead of 15.  It's a "keeper".

This is an interesting book, offering an unusual insight into the thought process of an identity thief. The story begins with the victim, who resides in Southern California, being arrested and mistakingly charged with multiple crimes. As the story progresses, the victim, a thirty year old deaf teacher, is finally released from county jail. She and her boyfriend decide to pursue the identity thief and his girlfriend across the United States, eventually winding up on the east coast.

There are four primary characters: The victim, the victims' boyfriend, the thief and the thiefs' girlfriend. As the drama develops, the writer provides interesting insight into the lives and motivations of the characters. In my opinion, the identity thief emerges as the most interesting and complex chaaracter, while the heroine acts like an egocentric and spoiled child. The heroines' boyfriend appears well intentioned but seems to be victimized more by his girlfriend than the identity thief. Speaking of the identity thief, it is important to note that his girlfriend, a Russian immigrant, is a hopeless shopaholic spendthrift who dumps him as soon as his victims close in and his scam begins to unravel.

I intend to read other T.C. Boyle's books.

This is not going to stop a determined thief, but it will stop the casual passerby from swiping the camera.
