NOT RECOMMENDED, VERY DISAPPOINTING

Not recommended. If you have a quick road trip and can't afford or have time for a hotel this will work. But even though it says Heavy Duty in the name, it's not. After a few days use it was leaking. After a week the baffles inside had split and it wouldn't hold air throughout the night. In my opinion your be better off buying one of those foam mattress toppers and rolling it up when you are done.

I simply did not like this at all! I thought that this book was just horrible! I thought that the first chapter was pretty good, while the rest of this novel just dragged. I found this novel to be just unnecessary at times. I hated the characters, and after while, I actually found myself not liking this author at all, and I mean professionally and somewhat personally. Very annoying! I would NEVER read this guy again!

I have been eyeing this author's work for a year now, and finally took the plunge and purchased this book, described as a 'reading program'. My experience has left me extremely disappointed. The book is part of an entire program, not a full reading program. The instructions are not clear, and refer to multiple products to make it work. The book is basically a list of words (after about 10 pages of single spaced instructions). Will be returning this (at my cost, per the seller). You'd be better off buying the entire package ($175) but make sure you can RETURN it if you don't like it - seems like there are parts they won't let you return once you take them out of the packaging.

I was looking for a text for my students and this looked promising at first glance, and was cheap.  However, having looked at it in more detail I am very disappointed.  The explanations are far from clear and there are no screen shots.  There are also no decent explanations about what you are being asked to type and why.  The end of chapter flashcards are pointless, as I doubt Primary school students will be using this, really what did the author think they were meant to achieve?  The quizzes are similarly pointless, as they simply test memory of definitions, not proper understanding.  Save even the small amount this book costs, as it is not worth it.

I did not enjoy this book. The characters are not well developed, the two storylines do not align chronologically in time and the plot was pointless. I kept waiting for something to happen - anything - and nothing ever did. Not until the final chapters did we find out why the book was written with different timeframes for the characters, or why two of the main characters were never even given names, just referred to as "He" and "She." If you're considering this book, I'd steer you away to something else. This was a complete snore.

The Razorland Trilogy has been one of my favorites so I was very disappointed after reading this installment.  First, it's a romance and not an adventure like its predecessors.  And it's a very poor romance since it defies belief.  Basically Teagan falls in love with something that rates a bit higher than an animal, one of the former Horde. Learning to grunt and growl to communicate with your lover is not romantic.  Second, Teagan is a very unlikeable character in this book.  She is self centered and self absorbed to the point of leading James along, treating him poorly and never communicating with him that she doesn't reciprocate his feelings.  And finally, the ending where she reveals her offense at something said by Duece when they first met that she can't seem to set aside or forgive is petty and unbelievable considering the potential end of humanity in the first books and the dysfunction experienced by all of the characters.  It was juvenile and silly.  I truly hope that any further books in this series will return to the original storyline as I love the way the author writes.  This one was disappointing.

Not very useful, and very little value for the money. The 20 lessons are 4 units of 5 lessons each that recycle the same handful of exercises with only slight variations over the 5 lessons. Some of the material is solid, but it's also unoriginal and simply repeats what is available everywhere on the web. Some material is not good: for instance, verb conjugations are presented in a manner that would be very confusing to my students (newcomer middle schoolers), and the Spanish-language translation of the parent letter is awkward and contains basic errors. Overall, a sloppy and disappointing "book" that must be considered overpriced at $7.

It's my fault for ordering it, though. I didn't pay enough attention. I didn't notice it was no bigger than a pamphlet, or that the blurb describing it contains grammatical errors. Still, at just $7, I won't be returning it, because a $7 refund is not worth the time it would take me to label/package/ship it back. Instead, I spent the time writing this review to warn others.

I originally purchased this book because I love tales of ghosts, and historical mysteries. Another plus was the English setting, and Cambridge.

However "Ghostwalk" (for me) was very disappointing. I didn't care for the narrator "voice" used (the device of having the main character "talking" to another main character throughout), which I found very distracting. Also, towards the end, the author switched to third person voice, an odd choice here, given that the rest of the book is not written that way.

That said, there were scenes that were drenched in romantic atmosphere, with beautiful details, such as descriptions of scenery, villages, homes, and gardens.  I also liked the initial premise of the "book within a book", with a writer attempting to solve the death of another writer, and a subplot involving the famous scientist, Newton, and a series of mysterious 17th century deaths.

However, the actual novel that I read fell apart for several reasons.

Firstly, an extremely unlikeable narrator / main character. I really couldn't identify with this self-centered woman, who for a (supposedly) well educated and intelligent person, made extremely unsound choices as to her personal safety, and everything else.

The character of her lover was also very unlikeable, a complete wastrel, and frankly, I couldn't see the big attraction between the two.

Second, a ridiculous subplot that included terrorism, government subterfuge, and animal rights groups, none of which dove tailed very well with the ghost and Newton sections.  It felt that there was way too much shoved into this novel. There was enough going on to make two separate books (one book a romantic mystery, and the other, a contemporary thriller).  Together they were an unlikely and unappealing combination.

"Ghostwalk" also included a few loose ends and plot holes, despite the author tying up some things by the end.

There was also an upsetting scene involving the death of a pet cat that disgusted me, further turning me off to this book.

At any rate, while the author can certainly write atmospheric prose (at times), the book was not one that "drew me in", due to the overstuffed plot, questionable characters, and odd choice of "voice".

Note: My favorite character was a secondary one, an eccentric psychic. I did love the descriptions of this interesting woman and her doings, village, home, etc. Pity she wasn't the main character.

This was an extremely disappointing book (and I have since returned it).  Although the "blurb" claims that the book has a lot of "ideas" - it really is only a collection of photos (albeit lovely photos - but really no more lovely than those you can browse on Houzz or similar websites) and only the very most basic "narrative" - for example, in the carpeting section there is a tiny description of different "styles" of carpet (cut pile, etc.), but no discussion of different materials and their comparative advantages and drawbacks.  The "bedding" section is also extremely light on content - its almost like a pictorial glossary "this is a bunk bed" - "this is a day bed".  I can't imagine who the target audience is for this book - but I found it exceedingly disappointing and not at all as described in the "blurb description".

This is a big disappointment. Not Mac-compatible, which is not stated anywhere on the disc or sleeve. V-e-r-y slow even on a fast PC, with a messy, un-intuitive interface. Some design suggestions are highly questionable, drawings are non-standard with very few measurements, some are of very poor quality.

I bought this book with much anticipation from the previous reviews I read.  Boy, was I let down.  It was an unfilling read, and very confusing. The time period jumps were not clear, and the book was just idle words without any meaning.  If you asked me what the book was about, I would falter in giving you a clear description.  There was no depth.  Don't waste your money, more importantly don't waste your time.

I really liked the other books in the Reformed Faith series, but this one was very unsatisfying.  Instead of digging into the scriptural issues (e.g., how do James 2 and Romans 3 fit together?), this booklet responded to straw-man arguments like "This is too good to be true, isn't it?!"  It has an unhelpful, somewhat accusatory tone, even going so far as to imply that people who doubt justification by faith alone do so because they are self-righteous Pharisees.  It never acknowledges or addresses any of the confusing passages from Scripture that do not neatly fit within a sola fide framework, which is what I would hope to get from a book like this.

It was nowhere near the quality of the author's other books, a great disappointment. I really do not recommend it.

Not recommended. Cheap crap, some thumbwheels designed to retain parts that are folded in for smaller boxing were stripped out from the beginning. The oval elements do nothing - they are in no way connected to the antenna cable. Rotator motor didn't work at all.
Signal helped only a tiny amount on FM, the 'HDTV' function brought in 4 channels of horrible Christian programming and that was it - along would all audio  being garbled. What a waste of time and money, I removed mine and sent it back!
