Review # 1 was written on 2020-03-30 00:00:00 Tammy Wilson A senior college course I took my freshman year, though I was in a 2 year program. I knew I wanted my BSN in nursing even then. No one told me a freshman should NEVER take a senior course their first semester in college. The science were always a easy A+ for me. I loved taking all the advanced courses the school could offer. None prepped me for college though. This course was HELL! I saw it go from 33 to 5, in 65 weeks. Me and a junior Jamacian student pitted against the 22 year Trepsera twins-who still dressed and acted alike! It was scary! they were teamed with the Japanese premed student. It was the only college course I almost dropped due a grade. I forgot one bond on a huge molecule and it cost ALL the points for the figure! So I flunked--never saw that on a test of mine before. We could drop one score, but had taken another test i felt iffy about. He got sick and we now would now get that score about until after the cut off for drop-out. I vividly remember trying to talk about this to my father and him raging against me. I running out into the col frigid Nov night, and it was raining hard, trying to turn into snow. I was in a flannel nightgown and I sat on what use to be the front porch of the house--now it would be called a front deck. He came out looking for me, raging like the storm "no daughter is dropping a course and disgracing me at the univ. I help build." I had enough of that with your brother--that is not in quotes, but i know he was thinking that. Anthony was kicked out twice for missing classes, eleven years before me, to play bridge. He is a brilliant mid, trapped a lifer mill rat at Inland Steel. He also has life master rating as a bridge player. Father, after the war, help set-up the chemistry labs at Purdue Univ. Calumet campus. He and mother knew all the people that the building were named for, when they were alive. Father had is AS in chemistry and was only 2-3 courses short of his BS, but has to drop out due to having a family to support and work full-time. Me, well I hid well and finally went that nite after 30 minutes. WE decided that IIIII would not drop out. I was suprised to find I got an A- on the test, so I could drop the F. That book is very difficult to read--the teacher even said so on the first day of class, and passed his helper text he made out--it went only so many chapters. When it ended, that is when the going got extremely rough. I see that the author has written many new versions, and I hope they are reader/student friendly. It is an amazing topic, I would i like to revisit some day.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-03-02 00:00:00 Dan Kelleher I just needed something light and mindless to read whilst my student teacher is teaching. Jill Davis' Girls' Poker Night was passed around at this year's Book Club Christmas Book Exchange. My friend Shannon, whose sense of humor I thoroughly enjoy, said she laughed out loud reading it! I did not. The thing is -- I'm not even opposed to chick lit on principle. Sometimes -- times like now -- I even seek it out. I need a reading break every once in awhile. But this book just did not do it for me. Written as a series of vignettes, Ruby Capote, emotionally crippled, details her move from Boston to New York to write a Sex and the City-esque column for a NYC newspaper. Through therapy and turmoil, she finds herself. And she also plays poker in Wednesday nights. Nothing about this book rang true -- characters, plot, nada. At times, I wasn't even exactly sure what happened since the vignettes jump around so frequently and without clarifying transitions. At other times, I was bored. I'm sorry to say, even for chick lit, Girls' Poker Night is not a winner for me.
