Very good so far, Koff is a phenomenal writer. Tells her incredible story in a very ordinary sort of way which makes it easier to connect with her experiences.

Some parts of this book are actually pretty good (i.e. his examination of the Christmas Truce), but other parts are just weird.

This is actually a really good overview of Imperial Russia, pretty well written.

Not quite what I was expecting, but it's a unique twist on historical fantasy and learning about historical cultures and peoples. The description of the process for creating religious icons was especially interesting.

Yep, it's a dry textbook.

This book is weird, but once you get past the first chapter and it's focus on the beginings of the modern dance movement it's actually not too bad.

This book a really nice general overview of the course of the war. Author has a sense of humor that pops up every now and again unexpectedly.

Really interesting and engaging, but I kinda wonder at this woman's decision making skills...

Wow, this is turning out to be a really great book! There is a lot to learn from St. Pat's life, even from the myths and speculation.

Hmm...not sure I'm loving this interpretation of Indy. Probably shouldn't have picked a book about zombies. The Nazi's German is hilarious though.

For a children's book, it's surprisingly slow moving. Still, White is a humorous writer and it's a wonderful story.

Pretty simple story and moral and yet, still thought provoking.
