This is one of the best books I have ever read. I laughed, I cried, I was gripped by terror and euphoria, I was stunned and angry: I was struck by every emotion imaginable. What wonderful writing and what a wonderful story!!! I highly reccommend this book to everyone!
There is such a great depth in this book. Each character seems so real, so multi-dimensional, that you can’t help but feel what they are feeling. It is obious that Ms. Gruen has done her research on the subject – everything was accurate and I really liked that it was an informative story. I also loved that she stated in her author’s note that it was based on true stories from actual travelling circus members. I also really liked that she based Rosie on several different elephants – it made Rosie more real to me.
Everyone should read this book! It’s fantastic!!!!

As an author myself, a few years ago I had an idea to write a book called, “A Conversation with God”. It was to be about a man who meets God and asks all the important questions in life. As the author, I would have God respond with my philosophy and ideas on how I think everything works. To my amazement, this has already been done! But one huge difference: mine would have been an admitted work of pure fiction.
In the book “Conversations with God” by Neale Donald Walsch, Walsch makes the bold claim that God was talking to him, not through him, or inspired him… actually talking to him. The book is a continuing dialog between himself and “God”, where he asks the questions and God answers.
First the good: This is an awesome book. I was sold on the book when I Googled the author and watched a few of his videos. He has a great sense of humor and told very entertaining stories. The book is a reflection of the author’s relaxed style of speaking and good-natured humor. His view on God and life in general makes sense – much more so than many ancient religions and dogmas. He says just enough to upset the Christians as well as atheists. I like an author who is not afraid to ruffle everyone’s feathers.
Now the bad. I believe the author is deceiving us. Based on where he was in his life, it is quite clear that he would do just about anything to bounce back from the “Hell on earth” in which he resided. A pretend conversation with God might sell a few books, but a REAL conversation with God, now that is recipe for a best-seller. But who am I to know that God did not choose him to reveal himself to the world? I am a thinking man who took this author’s own advice (or God’s advice – I forget) and thought this through instead of being a mindless follower.
1) His life called for desperate measures – this claim is pretty desperate
2) “God’s message” majorly contradicts the Bible and Koran, so if he is right, the Bible is wrong
3) God could easily make someone fully

I ordered Golf Digest through Amazon on 4/29/09. Received a request to write a review today, but we haven’t received the magazine yet. I have to give it the lowest rating because we haven’t seen it.

Fully satisfied with the memory card. Have not tried transferring files from it yet, but it works great so far. Loved that fact that I didn’t have to hack my way through hard-to-open packaging to get to it.
