This is regarding the Audio CDs, NOT THE TEXT. The narrator is so annoying and grating I literally couldn’t listen past the first chapter. Complete waste of money. The way she reads the text makes it sound geared for an 11 year-old, or even younger. It makes you feel like you are listening in on a superficial little girl’s diary. It is obvious they recorded it before Twilight became such a big hit, or they would have put more thought and value into the CDs. Such a disappointment.

This hand blender is great…my previous one just sat in the cabinet all the time because it wasn’t at all efficient. This one is worth the price for the power it provides; it purees soup like a dream. The sealable blending container it comes with is very handy as well.

I shopped for this mixer in retail stores near me. The price offered by Amazon beat the price of the KitchenAid KHM900ER 9-Speed Hand-Mixer, Empire Red in every store. For many years, I had a Kitchen Aid Hand Mixer which I really liked, but I stripped the gears by going from Low to High without stopping between speeds. The digital speed control on this mixer makes it impossible to do this. The mixer is sturdy and strong for most tasks except extreemly stiff dough. For that you need to use the Kitchen Aid Stand mixer. I would highly recommend this mixer to anyone.

So I discovered a major issue with this as soon as I got it. It doesn’t respond to taps with fingernails (acrylic in my case). This makes typing nearly impossible and highly frustrating. I wish they would have thought about a huge customer base of women that would have this problem when they were creating this. I have been able to use touchpads on other phones and devices with the tap of my nail just fine so I didn’t even think this would be a problem when I bought this. Very disappointing. I wonder if they will ever come up with a fix for this?

I do love the screen clarity and all of the other features about it, the capacity and the ability to be online where ever you have wi-fi access, which is nearly anywhere now days.

I put my original Kitchenaid mixer paddle in the dishwasher – which I found out later is a no-no. It lost all its finish and mixed poorly. I ordered this mixer paddle as a replacement and was pleasantly surprised to see it is an OEM paddle. Thanks Amazon!

I’ve heard much about this book and to hear that it was about the circus, I went in expecting it to be a great book.

I am a little disappointed. Although the author no doubt put much research into this, I never got into the story. Maybe because I felt the book didn’t have a really strong, solid plot to it and it just went on and on about Jacob’s day working at the circus. The romance that was thrown in wasn’t believable and therefore, failed to further the paper-thin plot.

Any good story needs a strong cast of characters. ‘Water for the Elephants’ had many interesting characters that went in and out of the woodwork but none of them felt real to me. They were shallow and two-dimensioned and I didn’t have much emotional connection to them. The one character that was arguably more developed was the dwarf and in the end, even Jacob didn’t seem to care much about him. The main character Jacob wasn’t engaging to me; he’s faced with animal abuse and spousal abuse and he feels sorry, etc. etc, but he’s not proactive about anything. His romance with Marlena was…contrived and random. Jacob showed no indication on WHY he loves her – readers are just told that ‘She looks like Catherine’ (a college crush) and they just fall madly in love with each other. The dialogue between them was just cringe-worthy and mostly consisted of Marlena bursting into tears. Not exactly strong enough to have the whole book revolve around their relationship, which I think is the downfall of this book.

The writing style of this book was very straight-forward and easy to read. I was expecting some great, beautiful writing hearing all those positive reviews like in ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’ but I guess not. The writing and the plot seemed amateurish and predictable. The ending was just too contrived and too neatly wrapped up.

All in all, this was a quick read, not really thought-provoking or challenging. I was reading it while on breaks and it was easy to fall out and in of it – which isn’t rea

Husband bought this for my birthday. Love the kindle, easy to use. Love being able to change the font and getting books online. Print is easy to read.

I just finished reading Catcher in the Rye and I did not care for it at all. Wanted to read it because of the publicity, but maybe because I am a grandmother, I just didn’t like it. I just finished Dream Catcher by J. D. Salinger’s daughter, a book I greatly enjoyed and think his daughter is a remarkable individual. However, the book seemed extremely juvenile to me. Most of the content was given to sex and I can see where young boys and perhaps girls would enjoy it. Not something I would have ever cared for but it had a lot of unnecessary profanity. It speaks to me of a young man who was mentally ill, I am sure that a label could be put on it today. I am not so sure it was not actually describing Salinger himself. After reading his daughter’s book, I think Salinger definitely had mental illness, what I would call crazy. His family had to endure awful things because of him. He chose to be a recluse, and did not live in the real world, wanted to live in isolation.
