I read the saga because my friends suggested it to me, and I will say that I do like the Twilight books, but I am not overly obsessed with them. I think all together the characters are well developed, but Bella is one character that is harder to understand. I also agree with many others who say that the book has a lot of unnecessary parts of the story in it, but is lacking in some scenes that I would have loved to read. I think if you are looking for a easy read then you have found the perfect book for you. This may be a personal preference but I also have a hard time following books in a first person point of view, but the book did keep my interest and I would read them again.

I do wish though that Stephanie would elaborate more on Carlisle and Esme’s relationship. These are two characters, besides Alice, that I found interesting and captured my attention. I mean seriously Carlisle is three-hundred and something years old, he must have some type of story to tell. I would love to read about how he and Esme fell in love with each other and their years and struggles as a couple. If Stephanie would write a book about them I would defiantly take the time to read it.

All in all I think the books are a good read for the feel of fiction and fantasy. They are easy to read and a very great page turner. You may be on the edge of your seat for most of the book if you get can get past some of the whining.

Our ancient Golden (now gone) loved to be Furminated! I guess it feels a little like a massage, gently removing all that nasty undercoat while giving the pet a comforting session with Mom or Dad. The first time I used it on him, I got two garbage bags’ worth of undercoat out of him (he was huge), although I had just combed and brushed him very thoroughly. What a revelation! Our other two Goldens love it too, even though one of them is completely without an undercoat. The Furminator cuts down drastically on the amount of hair that is left in clumps around the house. After using it, it’s a good idea to lightly brush the dog daily for a few days to remove any remaining hair. I can’t imagine any reason that anyone would avoid buying a Furminator. Some reviewers mentioned the cost, but the cost is minimal when held up against the health benefits and pleasure your dog will reap using this wonderful tool.

Artemis Fowl is a genius and a criminal mastermind, plus he is 13. It all starts when Artemis hears about fairies. After a long search Artemis gets his hands on a Fairy Bible. With the help of his bodyguard Artemis captures a fairy, a police fairy. After the capture there came war between 3 humans and a fairy army, but it took place in his house. A great fantasy incorporated into modern times.

I think that Artemis Fowl is a brilliant book. I love how Eoin Colfer used technology with the fairies. He created a whole new image of fairies in my head after I started reading through it. I would definitely recommend this book to any one who likes fantasy. It might be a fantasy but it is also seems like science fiction at times, with all the fairy technology being so far advanced to anything we have today. It was a real page turner too. There was never really a dull moment in the book. Whenever Artemis thinks there is either a plan coming up or something must be going on, say a conflict. So whenever Artemis doesn’t think it settles down, but that is very rarely. Even though it was a good book the plot isn’t very believable. You don’t really hear of 13 year old boys being smarter than most adults, who is a criminal mastermind. If there was a civilization underground by now I also think that it would be discovered. Even though it was unbelievable I very much enjoyed the style of writing. I’m already a fan of fantasy, and to add futuristic items just really made me enjoy it. The best part is how he turned fairy terms we know of into something else like our leprechaun is actually LEPrecon, a retrieval team to get back fairies. Overall, if I could I would rate Artemis Fowl a 7 out of 5.

Artemis Fowl is a 12 year old criminal mastermind from Ireland. He believes he has discovered the underground of world of fairies.
In Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Atermis. with his trust strongarm and bodyguard Butler, comes across a sprite posing as a healer and acquires from her the fairy holy book written in Gnomish.

Meanwhile the pretty and tough elf policegirl Captain Holly Short, of LEPrecon is pursuing a deadly troll who has escaped aboveground, and is kidnapped by Artemis to ransom her for copious amounts of fairy gold,. Holly is put under the care of Butler’s sister, Juliet, a blond 16 year old bodyguard in training.

Artemis has taken on LEPrecon and has not reckoned with LEPrecon Commander Juius Root who will stop at nothing to rescue Captain Short. LEPrecon is aided by centaur Foaly. A lot of exciting and fast paced action sometimes too much of it to allow for much character or scene development.
A great deal of wit and humour which is possibly the main attraction of the books.
Technology fans will love the high tech elf equipment.
Plenty of weird and wonderful characters- my favourite being the mesmerizing Captain Holly Short.
Not quite a modern classic but it is loved by teen and pre-teen audiences internationally.

Great scale! Its the first scale that does not give different results for weight within few minutes. My previous scale would show 2-3 pounds difference within few minutes. Great looking and worth the money!
