I wished there were more books like this one.

"Dream a little dream" was funny, truly enchanting, sexy fast-paced story. Gabe and Rachel were so real you could almost touch them.
 They didn't need a near disaster to realized they love each  other.
 They didn't play games with each other and Rach didn't play  hard to get.
 They weren't painfully stupid and insecure.
 They  weren't perfect - they were human.
 Rach was tough, stubborn and funny.  She was a fighter who has a ton of attitude, and Gabe needed someone with  that kind of spirit to pull him out of his misery.
 Gabe was sensual,  hard, yet so heartwarming, you couldn't help but fall for him.
 Don't  miss this one.

I would be happy if there would be another book like this every six months for the rest of my life. I am not above begging for a sequel Connie!  These are characters whom I would like to spend time with.  They are dealing with the fantastic but in a world that asks questions of our own, not on the level of government but in the personal forum.

My husband and I read this a few years ago and really enjoyed it. We would have read a sequel if there was one.

There are a lot of bad books in this genre, but this is one of the good ones. I enjoyed it a lot.

While I'm not necessarily a fan of sci-fi, I have started to change my mind about it thanks to books like this one. There is definitely a feeling of The Terminator or films like that in this book, though the writing seems to be a bit more advanced and "smart." The writing style itself is simplistic, but some of the descriptions are really great. There were times when I could really picture what he was talking about.
To me, this book felt not like a work of fiction but almost as a prophecy - this could actually happen to us.
I did take off a star because I found there to be some pretty odd sentence construction and word choices at times, but not enough to pull me away from the book.

I read a lot of books in this category, and usually they all give similar advice. This one stood out because it had a lot of great ideas I hadn't thought of or seen elsewhere. It has an easy-to-read format and flows nicely.

I was looking for more books like this one, but was perplexed to find that the title had been changed.  "A Certain Age," as it sits on my book shelf is titled "Pure."  Huh?? Anyway, this was a great, although somewhat depressing read.  I could not put it down.

Because I would like to read it again and would recommend it to my friends. It is very comparable to other books I have read.

It's not often that a reader of fiction comes across a book like this. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I found the story interesting, the style simple and engaging, and my only regret was that author Harlan Hague didn't make the narrative longer. Maybe he'll write a sequel. I certainly hope so.

Its not often you find a book such as this, and i was blessed to find one being sold at low cost in a book warehouse.  I would have picked up a few for friends if i knew how great it is and how hard it is to get.

I would have loved for this book to have gone into more depth with some of the major characters in the story. Since the story is written as an explanation justifying the main character's actions, it somewhat limited what could be said about the other characters. The story was amazing and I was sad when it ended.

All of Barbara Kingsolver's books are excellent but this book touched me in ways that the others had not.  Perhaps it is because I am also a widow and it was so true what she wrote about going on with life after one's husband dies.  It was especially interesting how the one lady who had lost her husband slowly became friends with most of her husband's brothers and sisters.  It was good how Barbara wrote of the different characters and then pulled them all together at the end.  As I read the book I felt as if it was only one in a set of two books.  I hope that she writes about these same people again and I will be so disappointed if she doesn't tell us more about their lives.  I enjoyed the books very much and tell all my friends to read it.

Before the book arrived, I feared it might be a short book, and maybe not too in-depth. But it was longer(yay!), and not at all lacking in depth.

 First,I felt really drawn to his writing style: much more readable to me, than his sister's style. Todd's style is easier for those of us who are less abstract, to read. His sister was something of a genius; some of what she wrote seemed to go over my head a bit. I  loved his descriptions of their Greenway house. He wrote honestly and  intelligently. Debbie had not one, but TWO children who could write very well. I want to echo what another reviewer wrote: I'd be glad if Todd would write another book.....MORE memories. Well done, Mr. Fisher....

I love books like this one.  It is highly entertaining, yet educational.  I had heard of the WASPs before, but I really did not know anything about them.  This book is about the problems that women pilots faced during World War II.  It is gives a very different perspective on this period than the typical World War II story.  I found it was easy to identify with these young women and their struggles.  Being a male, I may not be in a good position to judge, but I am amazed that a male author was able to write so convincingly from a female point of view.  However, my very liberated mother was the same age as the women portrayed is this story and based on her stories, the situations and feelings of the men and women of the period ring true.  Mom was not a WASP but by the end of the war she also had discovered there were life options other than following the traditional societal expectations growing up on a farm in the dust bowl.  There have always been women who believed they could do anything they wanted, but the number was small enough to not cause any seismic cultural shifts. However by the end of the war, the genie was out of the bottle.  The daughters of many of the women of this generation were raised to not accept the traditional gender roles and the makings of a cultural revolution were born.

I am only just beginning to understand the complex world of chemicals in our everyday life. And if I have learned anything at all, it is this: They are everywhere. It is a little unnerving to realize the sheer amount of chemicals in use and the severe restriction of them even if they have been proven to be hurtful and harmful to not only our environment, but humans as well.

I wanted to learn as much as I could about the chemical epidemic and so I picked up this book because it didn't seem to heavy with industry lingo and it seemed reader friendly. I wasn't disappointed. The authors made it clear what it is happening and gave us concrete steps to limit our exposure.

I only wish that they would have given us more. In the chapter where they discuss chemicals in baby products, they did not want to subject their children to blood testing. That would have been excellent if they chose to do that, it seemed imperative to the entire chapter that they test those levels. But they chose not to because they did not want to do that to their children. For shame because we could have had a more encompassing debate with that information.

The only reason I didn't give more stars is because the book didn't really hold my attention, it took me a few months to finish. I would always wander back to it but it wasn't able to completely hold my undivided attention and I love when that happens with books.

Honestly this is one of the better books I've read about dimensions and love stories.  While it might not have been highly original, the main character Ava was easy to relate to and I liked her thoughts and spirit.  The story keeps you guessing on what is going on and what will happen, but while more is revealed the more you questions I had.  This might be the first time that I wished one book would have been done in two or three because I feel the author could have really expanded on this and made it into something more enticing.  I just felt that while I liked the book,I really would have liked more details on her new life, the old life that she came from, the society rules of the place, and just a bunch more.

Out here in California, I don't see many books like this one.  It transports me and my kids to a simpler time.
