[size=2][b]'The Secret' By Rhonda Byrne[/b][/size] I want to review this book, because this book is the concept of how the mind should work to get what we want. Some people says to me, that what this book teaches is unorthodox or it violates the rule of religions, since religions believe that human has their own destiny so being rich and poor is not what they choose, its their destiny, that is what is believed in my country. With such a thought, people cannot advance in their life, th
Harry Potter(7) And The Deathly Hallows

There is a website called Bookcrossing ([url="http://bookcrossing.com"]http://bookcrossing.com[/url]) where you can get and give books to random people. It works by just leaving a book in a random place and posting on the site where it is. Someone then comes and picks it up, logs it on the site and leaves it somewhere else. My sister is unnaturally obsessed with this for some reason [img]http://www.knowledgesutra.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif[/img].
The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas
It is set in WWII . It is cleverly written and displays the horrors of the holocaust in a subtle way. It keeps ahead of you , until it delivers the last final pages , which are heartrending I thought it was a great book. It is almost one of a kind , and The author , even though the book being less than 280 pages long , put two years of effort into writing it. I hope you will read it , because it will never become boring :]
Has anyone of you tried publishing with Lulu.com before? I'm looking forward to publishing an ebook on that site and was wondering if there are any downsides to using the site. So, any suggestions from previous users?

I am a huge fan of sci-fi books. Arthur C Clarke, Robert A Heinlein, Isaac Asimov, the list goes on... My favorite ones are the old dusty copies. The tiny books, yellowed with age, crisp to the touch, and aromatic of the dusty bookshelf they once inhabited. That's sci-fi to me. I suppose I really am not heading anywhere with this post, so let me give it purpose. Does anyone recommend one such classic to me? I am looking for a really good one, one of your favorites.

The Great Gatsby And The American Dream
F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby is much like an onion. On the surface there is the hard outer layer, but to really understand it, one has to dig into the fresh insides. On the surface of The Great Gatsby Fitzgerald portrays a romantic love between a man and a woman, but inside the real meaning is much deeper. Fitzgerald depicts the 1920’s as a time of decay social and moral values, evidence of this is the greed and the pursuit of pleasure. Jay Gatsby’s constant parties epitomized the corr

The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas
This book is absolutley brilliant. I read a fair amount I suppose, I don't know maybe a book a week. I had never, however, come across this book or anything like it until one day my grandmother lent me it. I flicked through the pages and thought with it only being a short novel I should give it a go. The general theme of the book is that a small boy, the son of Hitler's right hand man, and his family all move from their beautiful home in Berlin to a place called Out-with. The real
She has three books out to date. Her first, "Wasted: A Memoir Of Anorexia And Bulimia" was a huge hit when it came out because it told the story of eating disorders unlike any other book that had been published on them, and is probably still one of the best books out there on the topic. Her second, which was a novel, "The Center Of Winter," focused on a family after the father's suicide. I can't say much about that book because I haven't read it, but I intend to d

Me and my girlfriend are both pretty big movie buffs, but at the same time love to read. Lately we've been having a pretty big discussion about our distaste for books being turned into movies. The most recent "big" book title to be turned into a movie is, one of our favorite book series, Twilight. Twilight is an amazing book and I'm really looking forward to the movie. She, however, is very upset that they decided to make the book into a movie as it will "ruin her view

Yesterday, I was re-reading [i]Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince[/i], and I have deduced that Snape's allegiences indeed lie with the Order of the Phoenix. Here is why: [highlight="black"]At the top of the Astronomy Tower near the end of the book, Dumbledore admits to Malfoy that he knew about the mission Voldemort entrusted to Malfoy. However, he knew that Malfoy is not a murderer and therefore would not kill dumbledore, so he asked snape to kill dumbledore instead so that
For the most part, I don't like watching movies that have been made from books that I've already read, though for some reason if I read the book after watching the movie, I can still enjoy both separately, like [i]The Princess Bride[/i] or [i]Memoirs of a Geisha[/i]. There have been a few exceptions, like [i]Lord of the Rings[/i] and the recent version of [i]The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe[/i], but it had been so long since I read the books that many of the details were vague, I ju

The whole town attended to Emily Grierson’s funeral, but did they actually knew who she was? And that was exactly the problem. Emily was a very mysterious lady, with a lot of secrets and eccentricities; it was impossible to know what was going through that woman’s head. But that did not stop the people talking and supposing things about her; “poor Emily” they used to say, and it was impossible not to talk about her due to her weird personality. Emily Grierson not only was
A hanging Racism of Hindu people can reach really deep extremes. One of them is the hanging. In the story of “a hanging”, by George Orwell, is described the execution of a Hindu man in a prison and how is it from the point of view of one of the guards. This story describes his feelings, and it shows that the narrator is not as selfish as he seems and that he deeply has a good hearth. First of all, it can be seen that he actually cares a little bit about the prisoners’ lives. In the text he des

Minima Moralia: Reflections From Damaged Life
i've been working on this adorno piece on and off for a month or so now. needless to say, it's an incredibly heavy read... as is just about anything from him. "life does not live" being one of the books opening statements, you can really only imagine where it goes from there. from specifics to broad assertions of an inhuman society, adorno really digs deep on this one. if nothing else, it is certainly a social philosophy book worth taking a look at. just one warning, don't

Book Review Good To Great Companies - Chapter 3 Summary
In chapter three, Collins would begin by saying when it comes to producing good to great companies it was the matter of putting the right people on the "bus" and getting the wrong people off the "bus".

Collins talks about three truths when it comes to using the right people and the wrong people, the first one he talks ab
Book Review Good To Great Companies - Chapter 2 Summary
To Continue on with my review I have completed chapter 2 for everyone to enjoy. I find chapter two to be of interest for those in the management area, the reason I say that because it would seem that Jim Collins is saying this is what you shouldn’t do when you are at a high level position. He talks about how some of the good-to-great leaders were humble and thought of the company and not themselves. Jim Collins talks about Level 5 Management, in short is a position that blends both perso

I recently had a professor who avowed that Chaucer was one of the 4 most influential writers in the English Language. He included Shakespeare, Milton and some other dude that I can't remember. The point is: CHAUCER? I would have never guessed. Anyhow, he said that Chaucer was so influential because he started a trend of realism in characterization (everything before this point was written like a legend or a fable or whatever) and rhyme in poetry (english writers just used alliteration, rhyt

Dan Brown, the author of The Da Vinci Code, is very famous, with good reason, for writing an entertaining action / thriller. However, as I have read more of his work, I am disappointed to see that all his books follow the same common formula. Take a protagonist (a beautiful woman or a man who ends up working closely with one). Throw her into one insanely crazy situation after another. Make sure random people are trying to stop / kill her, for no apparent reason at all and outside of the noti

Has anyone read or watched the Kite Runner? I think it was a fabulous book with a creative writing style. I loved how the author transitioned from their childhood life to adulthood. His style also made his book kind of unpredictable. I'm not giving any spoilers but I think it was an excellent book and deserves a good read. My favorite part would have to be near the ending, mainly at the climax. The ending also kinda makes you want to know what happens after that. If you haven't read the
I peresonally believe that censorship resebmles cancer. Many books have been censored in the course of time, and there are many more being censored every day, all over the world. Censored books should at least be published on the net. Or maybe not? What do you think?
There are so many useless e-books at the Internet, and from now on, I will never, ever buy another one. Why? People just want to make money the easy way, and they don't know what they're talking about, act smart, copy stuff from the Internet, or just read around some stuff and expand it-by adding useless stuff, which you may get by reading a dozen times smaller text!The folowing text is my review for a e-book called '101 Ways toPromote Your Web Site: Filled with Proven Internet M
