This SD card works superb. I did not have any issues. The transfer speed is pretty good. Go for it.

This whole series is great! I love how the author captures your attention at the very beginning and then keeps me enthralled throughout the entire book. There is action, adventure, and mystery as well as character development. This is an easy read and very enjoyable!

I struggled with this book from the very first pages because of the horrible mis-handling of Southern African-American vernacular. My next struggle was with editorial lapses such as proper placement of cultural and historical references, but overall, I get the book and its intention to show the common humanity of the characters, but I felt offended by an author who didn’t or couldn’t create 3-dimensional characters as I understand them.
It surprised me that this book made it to the bestseller list. To me, it seemed weak in its character and story development. I think though that readers who rated this book highly are typically people looking to understand a culture or viewpoint with which they are unfamiliar and this book made that culture/viewpoint accessible even if it’s not a depiction that rings true to those of us who come out of the culture.
Further on the topic of vernacular, I found it noteworthy that only the Black characters in the book spoke in a vernacular even though various Southern dialects are well known and widely used in literature of and about the South. The way that language was used just made me cringe. ‘Law’, please save me from an author who seems to have stumbled upon two or three elements of speech and then repeated them ad naseaum.
I did not enjoy reading this book and I definitely did not feel that it was a fully dimensional charcterization of African American domestic workers but I appreciate that it creates the opportunity for dialogue.
We purchased the vacuum roughly 2 years ago after reading the Consumer Report that ranked it third, behind Kirby and another ridiculously expensive vacuum “system”… This is a really good vacuum without all the frills (ie, i don’t think that mine has a light…). It gets the cat hair well, and the original belt just broke a couple of days ago. This replaced the $150 vacuum that we got just a couple years before – we are much more pleased with this than the more expensive one.

I agree with one of the other reviews that if you are a Christian this book does go against some of the fundamentals that Christians embrace.
I have the second and third books and in there he says that Hitler went to Heaven because death is not really bad. If you have no solid Christian doctrines than you might believe what the author says. We have no real way of knowing the truths of these books. Don’t always assume it is true, but it can be interesting reading. Please just beware of what you read and absorb from these books. They are not total truths or doctrines.
