My primary account is @fu@millefeuilles.cloud for now I'm keeping this open just to serve as my "library book queue" of books I want to read, but all my actual content is on the other. I probably should importat this to there, we'll see when that happens, I'm fearful I'll screw something up and get incorrect data in my real profile

I received this book as part of the LibraryThing early review program.
I find most modern Christian books incredibly lacking in substance and a lot of feel-good fluff. However, I was very excited to get it, the subject sounded fantastic, and although it is a new 2020 release the original work was written over 100 years ago.
However, I was disappointed. This very short book took me months to get through. I was written in a very odd style. To the point that I think it may have been originally written in some sort of poetic verse when authored in German that didn't translate well to English.

I received this MP3-CD as part of Library Thing's early review program. I love MP3-CD it's a format that's not around much. However, that was the only good thing I could say about it. It's long and boring. Reads like a set of police reports.

I received this book as part of LibraryThing's early review project.
We are a home school family so having books like this available is always a big plus to us. That being said my oldest is currently in 2nd grade so it will be a time before we use this reference regularly.
It says its visual guide to acing math in grade 4-9 but there are some topics in here that I never touched until 10th grade geometry, so your miles may vary.
From the description I had hoped we would be able to use this as a curricular from middles school math, but alas its more of a reference book than a curriculum. But for what it is, it's well put together, though quite heavy.
An anthropological look at the UFO community, told through first-person experiences with researchers in their …
received this audiobook as Part of LibraryThing's Early review program.
I spent most of the book trying to figure out what the the author's deal was. Now that I've completed it, I'm still not completely sure. She's a Mormon turned atheist, and she seems to spend much of the book arguing that UFOlogoy is a modern day religion.
The book is more about the people who "study" UFOs than the UFOs themselves.
She doesn't really explain the "Why we See Saucers" mentioned in the subtitle of the book other than a flimsy argument that we see them because we want to see them.
I will say the version of an "official" story about the Roswell incident that she recount's here is the first one I have heard that holds any water.
As far as its quality as an audiobook: I was pleasantly pleased that they are still making CD versions …

As far as its quality as an audiobook: I was pleasantly pleased that they are still making CD versions in 2020. In fact when I finally received it I hadn't even realized it was going to be an audiobook, and I love audiobooks on CD. The reader was OK. Her voice wasn't annoying or anything, but personally I always prefer audiobooks that are read by the author.
