Richard (Rick) gave to: The Virgin in the Ice (Chronicles of Brother Cadfael #6) by Ellis Peters read in February, 2012	My rating:
This was my first Cadfael mystery, because I could get it on audio. My mother loved these books. I thought this particular one was good, but not overwhelming. The solving of the final mystery was depressing to me to hear what happened to the victim, ...more

Richard (Rick) gave to: Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back by Todd Burpo read in January, 2012	My rating:
Wow, why is this book a runaway national bestseller? I enjoy reading books on near-death experiences, so I'm already biased in favor of this book, but I found it very boring. I pretty much skimmed through the whole thing. The actual experience that t...more
