Not Free SF Reader.......2007-09-03
A pretty mundane, pretty much died in the wood I would guess romance.
New Orleans vampires in the past, and present, circle around each other, as does a cop and a rich girl. Not too many interesting elements to be found here, and it is laid on reasonably thickly.
Easily avoidable, as far as the whole paranormal thing goes it is pretty dull.
Cheesy, Overdramatic Vampire Romance.......2005-04-24
First in a series, BENEATH A BLOOD RED MOON by Shannon Drake is a paranormal romance that's a cross between vampire melodrama and a police murder-mystery. Spanning 200 years, it follows the lives of the mysterious Montgomery heiresses, rumored to be vampires, contrasted with the modern-day love affair between a cop named Sean and the latest Montgomery heiress, Maggie. Sean is also the lead cop on a series of gruesome murders committed by a serial killer imitating Jack the Ripper - and who somehow is connected to Maggie.
I didn't particularly care for the story ... and my list of complaints is long. The book is actually a quick read and keeps your attention, but I felt it was too melodramatic (and cheesy), especially the prologue. I also didn't like the author's writing style; she wasted a lot of time on unnecessary "fluff" details and dialogue, none of which pertained to the plot or romance. The plot line itself was interesting, but I was rolling my eyes way too often to enjoy it and had figured out the major secrets long before they were finally revealed. The happily-ever-after ending was also wrapped up too nicely, with no explanation as to how "the miracle" happened. All in all, it was an unsatisfying reading experience.
FYI: Erotica writer Angela Knight's THE FOREVER KISS or JANE'S WARLORD both handle these themes much better, the former being about vampires, the latter having a time-traveling Jack the Ripper.
YUMMY VAMPIRES!!!!.......2004-09-17
THIS IS A GREAT VAMP. READ, PLUS IT HAS ROMANCE ,DANGER AND LUST ALL MIXED INTO ONE.... SHANNON DRAKE IS WONDERFULL.....
Pretty good Book.......2003-10-14
When i first started reading this book,i had my doubts.It starts off kinda slow,but picks up after a few chapters.I plane to read more by Drake after reading this.
A Great Vampire Novel!!!!!.......2003-05-24
I must admit that I am new to the sub genre of the vampire romance novel. I love the concept but I have just not found many authors that have thrilled me. Ms. Drake has sold me totally on the idea of a sexy, sensual vampire. I automatically pick up Ms. Drake's historic romance books, now I will pick up her Vampire novels as well!
Maggie Montgomery is owns a clothing boutique in the heart of the French Quarter. This is a special store since it has been in her family for generations. There has been a horrid murder in the French Quarter and there are blood drops found outside her backdoor literally. This leads NOPD detective Sean Canady to her doorstep investigating to investigate this beauty in connection to the blood drops found outside. Maggie is stunned and agrees to help in any way possible. Sean is totally drawn to Maggie in a way that he can't understand and begins to pursue the reluctant lady despite the misgivings he has that she is holding something back.
Maggie has secrets that she is not willing to share, she is a vampire. Needless to say Maggie is away of a past that she and Sean (Sean is an old soul as well) share, as well as the return of an enemy that means to destroy all that she has managed to create. She finds herself drawn to Sean and eventually falls in love with him. She still feels bad about keeping a part of her past from the sexy Sean, and her past may have a connection to the murders that are now plaguing the French Quarter. She may know who is performing the frightening "Jack The Ripper" type murders but is unable to prevent them. See the murder may be another vampire. Eventually Maggie must confront not only her past, but love and trust Sean enough to tell him the truth about her in order to help him catch a killer.
This was an incredibly fast paced book, set in one of my favorite places. Ms. Drake created a wonderful set of characters (both main and secondary characters) that really tell their own story. The chemistry between Maggie and Sean is wonderful, and I love Lucian....I can hardly wait until he get to his story! This book held me spell bound and totally changed my outlook on how good a vampire book can be! Do yourself a favor and get this book, full of suspense, and romance!

Book Description
In this landmark book, Dr. Teri James Bellis, one of the world's leading authorities on auditory processing disorder (APD), explains the nature of this devastating condition and provides insightful case studies that illustrate its effect on the lives of its sufferers.
Millions of Americans struggle silently with APD. For many of them, holding a simple conversation can be next to impossible. As sound travels through an imperfect auditory pathway, words become jumbled, distorted, and unintelligible. As Dr. Bellis notes, the most profound impact of this highly specific impediment to auditory comprehension may be on the young. Facing a severely reduced ability to read, spell, comprehend, and communicate, children with APD are subject to anxiety, academic failure, and a damaged sense of self. Often, they are misdiagnosed.
Discussing the latest and most promising clinical advances and treatment options, and providing a host of proven strategies for coping, Dr. Bellis takes much of the mystery out of APD. If you or anyone you know has difficulty comprehending spoken language, or if your child is struggling in school, this important book may have the answers you need.
Download Description
"APD has been called the auditory equivalent of dyslexia, and its debilitatiting effects cross all ages, genders, and races. APD can cause children to fail in school and adults to suffer socially and in their careers, but until now, there has been little information available. Written by Dr. Teri James Bellis, one of the world's foremost authorities on APD, this is the first book on the subject that is completely accessible to the public. Through helpful checklists and case studies, you'll finally discover the answers you need, as well as proven strategies for living with APD. Comprehensive and powerfully prescriptive, this book contains vital information for anyone who suffers from this serious disorder. "

Excellent resource for parents!.......2007-08-11
I bought this book because my daughter was diagnosed as probably having Auditory Processing Disorder (she's too young to take the auditory tests yet). We were very worried that she might be on the autism spectrum but she is so social and doesn't do the stereotypical "lining up" or wheel spinning type play and she doesn't do any stims...it turns out that she has APD.
This book is a great resource. I've loaned it to her teachers at her regular preschool and her summer camp to help them understand how they can better help her. It's easy to read and understand and is SO helpful for understanding the nature of the problem. A definite buy for any parent whose child has APD or any teacher who suspects they have students with APD.
Better late than never........2006-04-11
It's taken a long time for this disorder to be recognized for what it is and it still has a long way to go in becoming more well known. The book is not an easy read, but then the disorder is not easily diagnosed either. Hopefully someone will write about Central Auditory Processing Disorders to suppliment this complex and intensive book for the sake of learning how to explain this highly unknown handicap to those who have trouble understanding that it is not a hearing loss problem but rather an auditory information processing difficulty.
Loved this book.......2004-06-09
This book is indispensible for the audiologist/SLP/parent/professional working with APD. I only wish we could have read this one BEFORE the text books in grad school..would have made much more sense. Very nicely written, presenting of scenarios was important...more info to assimilate to your childs difficulty. May of seemed cut and dry to some, but if it was not, you would be reading the unabridged version and toting it on wheels. Not everyone uses the same categorization strategy...but that is the beauty of research and ongoing learning...take some info from each and you are well rounded. Maybe those who chose to go only half way through the book and not PAST the case studies to the theraputic ideas are the same ones hoping for a quick remedy. This disorder takes time and patience and an informed parent. Good Luck..... challenges and good times are ahead. Thanks Terri for giving us all a small part of you....A fellow CCC-A
Read the Whole Book Before you Review It!.......2004-04-23
For the reader who said that this book is depressing, consists entirely of case studies, and provides no concrete information regarding diagnosis or, especially, treatment, I couldn't help but notice that you wrote your review when you had only read half of the book. Read on! You will find specific recommendations for diagnosis, understanding APD and its relationship to language and learning, and tons of treatment approaches that offer hope for children and adults with APD. The case studies serve to illustrate how these disorders affect people in the real world, and you may see yourself, your child, your parent, or your spouse in them. But this is the only book written for the layperson that really, truly does provide guidance that is scientifically sound from a world renowned expert in the field. Next time, please read the whole book before you review it!!
I agree with The Woj..........2004-03-30
I bought this book because it was the only book in the bookstore with any information on CAPD. I am only about halfway through it but I do feel that it's mostly case studies and it does seem like she is almost defending herself and her CAPD, by proving that it truly does exist, rather than what to do about treating it. My 8 year old son was recently diagnosed with a CAPD and this book has me frightened for his future. She lays out all the negative things that can happen to a child who grows up with a CAPD, such as distancing themselves from people for fear of being made fun of, lack of social skills, feeling stupid, or having trouble in their jobs. I know he has this CAPD, what I want to know is what I can do to help him not have these issues to deal with in the future. So far, I am doubtful that there will come a point in this book where I will get that information. I would not recommend this book to someone just getting familiar with CAPD. It seriously put me into a panic and depression about what type of life my child will have in the future. It focuses more on the negative aspects that could happen instead of treatment for CAPD. I am sorry I bought it and wish I could get a refund.

A bit limited.......2007-03-28
If you love lamb, this is the cookbook for you. But if you are looking for more, and in particular if you are searching for side dishes or vegetarian recipes, you will be disappointed. Some of the recipes call for ingredients not readily found in the US.
Good recipes, but not well ordered.......2005-09-26
If you love Moroccan food but have never made it, this is the book for you. The steps for preparation are easy to follow and the food is delicious. However, the recipes are not as well categorized as they should be. Recipes seem to follow a certain indexing, but once you flip through the pages they are all over the place. I want all my main dishes under main dishes ... not the case here.

Lifesaver!.......2007-10-01
Having had probably 8 cat books, this is the only keeper. It may have saved the life of my beautiful Tortie-Tabby. At the age of 11, she had a Petit Mal seizure and miraculously it was described abundantly in the book. I took her right in and rec'd some Rx that I gave her for several months. Gradually, her seizures diminished and she has lost her fear of them and has smoother reactions.
I've referred to this book dozens or hundreds of times. I totally love it.
This Belongs In All Cat Homes.......2004-01-18
If our cats could tell us what's wrong or where it hurts, it would be easy to diagnose and treat their illnesses. Since this isn't the case, this book is a must have. Written by a veterinarian, this book offers help in an easy to use format. The first chapter discusses emergency situations such as bite wounds and heat stroke, while the second chapter describes abnormal behaviors such as aggression and lethargy. The following eight chapters tour the animal's body from head to toe, discussing symptoms, diagnoses, possible causes, care, and prevention. At the end, there's a checklist for good health and information on performing weekly home exams. If you don't have a copy, I highly recommend picking one up.
A Great Reference Guide to Help You!.......1999-07-27
This is a great book for any cat owner; it has every possible symptom and possible reasons for that symptom. Since I own an older cat, this book is a great reference for me when I see a change in his behavior. This book is well worth purchasing!
