Oh heavens - this one gave me a few good chills! I haven't really ever felt disappointment with any of the stories, and while Ron Ripley will forever be my favorite, the other writers hold their own.
Great stories, good thrills, and perfect for chilly afternoons! You can blame the shivers on the cold!
Oh my goodness, this book had me giggling in a few parts - but it was so well done, and put together. You can follow the criminal career of Annie with ease!
From cloaks to asking for fair for transportation, to swindling people out of money for “good works,” Annie ran the gambit, doing everything she could to maintain a comfortable lifestyle, while skipping out just in time to keep from being arrested. The police seemed to be one step behind her at every turn.
I enjoyed this read, and the exploits of the dominating Annie.
8 Miraculous Months in the Malayan Jungle: A WWII Pilot's True Story of Faith, Courage, and Survival

If you are looking for a book that is full of “how in the world...” then this is the one for you! Full of adventure, survival, and the fight for life - this book is one that will not leave you disappointed at all!
As a historian, I was blown away by the detail, the descriptions, and the astounding fight to stay alive in the jungle. Absolutely amazing and a perfect read! For fans of WWII, this exciting military adventure, staying alive in a jungle full of Japanese soldiers, their only job - stay alive and make it home.
This was an interesting take on Anne Boleyn. Her life has been written about, romanticized, and torn to shreds by those who wished to bring her down. Mary Louise Bruce brings Anne to the front again, and in some ways, rehashing all of the information that has already been presented about her.
I was looking forward to gaining deeper insight into Anne Boleyn through this book, but nothing truly jumped out as new and exciting. Nevertheless, it was a decent biographical work of this young woman who became the queen of England, losing her life at a young age.
