Mind Games - Aging Brain and How to Keep it Healthy
Regardless of your age, have you ever experienced what may
be affectionately described as “senior moments?” For example,
have you
• Checked three or four times to make sure that the same
appliance is turned off before you leave home?
• Tried to use a word in your conversation that you know
you know but cannot recall?
• Walked up and down the parking lot looking for your
car, with the grocery sacker tagging along behind?
• Forgotten someone’s name you just met, even though
you were rehearsing it while you were walking away?
• Had someone tell you that you do not correctly remember
what he or she told you?
Or, you may be apprehensive of your ability to adapt to
new situations. Are you concerned that rusty brain cells
may prevent you from successfully
• Moving to a new home or city?
• Joining a special-interest group to meet new friends?
• Earning a degree or enrolling in a continuing-education
course?
• Applying for a new job?
• Managing your business and/or life?
Well, if you answered “yes” to any of these questions or
have similar worries in your life, it’s not hopeless. This book is
just what you need.

Sam's Letters to Jennifer - Review

Book : Sam's Letters to Jennifer
Author : James Patterson
A Gist :
Have you ever gotten a letter that changed your life completely? It happened to me once. I still can feel the urgency that overtook me as I opened the envelope and the hunger I felt for whatever that letter would say. It seemed as if my entire life hung in the balance as I read.
Sam's Letters to Jennifer is a novel about that kind of drama. In it, a woman is summoned back to the town where she grew up. And in the house where she spent her most magical years she finds a series of letters addressed to her. Each of those letters is a piece of a story that will upend completely the world she thought she knew - and throw her into a love more powerful than she ever imagined could be possible. Two extraordinary love stories are entwined here, full of hope and pain and emotions that never die down.
I hope you'll enjoy this novel as much as I've enjoyed writing it. It's not often that you get a letter that changes your life. But it should happen to everyone at least once.
-- James PattersonRating : 3/5 - Good Reading
Review :
Laced with mystery, Sam's Letters To Jennifer combines two unforgettable love stories in a novel that's absolutely impossible to put down.

The Time Traveler's Wife - Review

Book : The Time Traveler's wife
Author : Audrey Niffenegger
Yr Pub : 2003
A Gist : In The Time Traveler's Wife, Audrey Niffenegger tells a touching love story with a new twist. Henry DeTamble is a librarian who suffers from a genetic disorder (its clinical name is Chrono-Displacement Disorder)that causes him to shift backward and forward through time. Without a moment's notice, he disappears, leaving behind his clothes and everything else, and arrives naked at another time in his life. Sometimes he even meets a different version of himself. He discovers that he has met Clare Abshire since she was a young girl, making several visits with her throughout her life. Clare falls in love with a man who can't control when he comes and goes. Far from being a science fiction novel, Audrey Niffenegger uses the time travel device as a way of drawing out her characters who want to overcome all obstacles in their love.
Rating : Highly Recommended
My Review : a real, time spinner... for a debut-a very good piece of work,u will never know when u got lost in time.
Other official reviews:
“A powerfully original love story. BOTTOM LINE: Amazing
trip.”
—PEOPLE
“To those who say there are no new love stories, I
heartily recommend The Time Traveler’s Wife, an enchanting
novel, which is beautifully crafted and as dazzlingly
imaginative as it is dizzyingly romantic.”
—SCOTT TUROW
"Niffenegger's beautiful prose and sure-handed way with character development lifts The Time Traveler's Wife beyond the realm of romance potboilers and into the mainstream of literature that will last."
