Prescott rated a book 3 of 5 stars An Object of Beauty by Steve Martin	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Good characters, good writing, not much of a plot. Let's be honest. Waiting most of the book for the real drama, and then it kinda works itself out very quickly. Oh wells.

Prescott rated a book 4 of 5 stars The Design of Everyday Things by Donald A. Norman	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Needs to be updated for the 21st century, but the principles are sound.

Prescott rated a book 4 of 5 stars Kill Decision by Daniel Suarez	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Would have loved to see a second part. The book seemed to accelerate as it went on, becoming less juicy, as it were.

Prescott rated a book 5 of 5 stars Freedom (TM) (Daemon, #2) by Daniel Suarez	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Amazing. Great action, great premise, great characters. (part II). Not sure how this would have survived on its own, but as a two-parter, Daemon and FreedomTM are brilliant.

Prescott rated a book 2 of 5 stars That is All by John Hodgman	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Eeesh, I'm afraid this one is a bit of a stinker, especially in comparison to the first in the series, The Areas of My Expertise. Clearly, there wasn't enough fake trivia to make a trilogy. This book is much more slapstick than satire — the line, in...more

Prescott rated a book 4 of 5 stars Beyond Band of Brothers: The War Memoirs of Major Dick Winters by Dick Winters	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Can't help but be in awe of Winters and the men of Easy Company. This book provided a bit of extra insight into what the Miniseries covered (and presumably, what the book missed). The only criticism is the obvious note that Winters is not a writer. P...more

Prescott rated a book 4 of 5 stars Enchantment: The Art of Changing Hearts, Minds, and Actions by Guy Kawasaki (Goodreads Author)	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
How to Win Friends for the 21st century. Can't help but love Guy. Parts are a bit redundant, though, covering topics and tactics that can be found elsewhere (and everywhere). Still, a good read.
