I love fantasy. Have read and re-read Harry Potter countless times. But I am by no means unable to enjoy reading other fantasy books. I loved the Bartimaeus trilogy and then someone told me about this series and I jumped right in. This being the 1st series in the novel, was a great read. I am not giving it 5 stars. The 1st book of most series aren’t necessarily the best. You get to know the basic plot and characters of the series and hopefully the following books will build on this even better. Artemis character is very very interesting. As is Butler and Holly. For those of you with active imagination, you won’t find it hard to visualize the “people”. It is a book about a 12 yr old but certainly not limited to readers of that age. I am excited about this series and I recommend it for people who are looking for a new fantasy series to read. This one is different from Harry Potter because half of it is set in our world with normal people. Artemis is a genius but posseses no magic or superpowers . The writing is lucid and very easy to read. The book is absorbing, couldn’t stop turning the pages. Seems less emotionally intense than Harry Potter, but that’s not a bad thing at all.
So You Think You

This is my fifth (and hopefully last) pedometer in the past 6 months. I bought the cheap $5 or $10 ones in the store and they constantly reset, or worse, stopped working. I’ve dropped this one more than once and prayed that it was still working when I picked it up. And it has. I’m only dropping it because I refuse to attach the tether. At least it gave me the option. Others don’t even come with a leash. Love the different step counters. Pretty darn accurate and like that I can review the last week to see how I’m doing with my 10K a day. I would recommend this pedometer in a heartbeat.
So Smart! Baby s

I can’t tell any difference in this cable and the cable which I paid 5 times as much for at BB.

I wasn’t sure if I even wanted to use HDMI cables and I knew I didn’t want to spend 30.00 just to try it out. These were perfect, they were low cost and they work great. Anyone who is unsure should try these, I like them, I use them, and I’m not spending 30.00 for 1 sinle cable
Seasonal variations in SO

Mixed reviews held me back from reading this book for quite some time, despite my recent foray into juvenile literature. I have to say I have mixed feelings as well, though not for a lot of the reasons I’ve read (okay, people who say a 12-year-old criminal mastermind is just ‘too farfetched’ of an idea… did you notice the fairies and dwarves and trolls and the centaur? Oh, a 12-year old genius is too much to handle, but all of the fantasy creatures… no problem? Fiction, people… it’s fiction. If I wanted ‘real world’ stuff I’d just leave the house!). Mostly I had a very hard time picturing a lot of the creatures (specifically the dirt-eating unhinged-jawed dwarf) and didn’t have a great handle on the setting/technology/magic being described. But the action was good, and I did like a lot of the characters. So it gets a pretty middle-of-the road review, though I will read more in the series.
