![]() Gentlemen $16.99 Michael and his friends are treated like Gentlemen by the one teacher in school who might understand them. They're a bunch of misfits who dislike school. One of Michael's friends gets himself into trouble during class. He disappears from the classroom - and from town. No one can find him and he's not picking up his cell phone. The boys are worried - especially given the lesson from their English teacher the day before. He brought in a heavy barrel and invited the students to lift the barrel and guess the item inside it as a precursor to the new novel they'd be reading. He never revealed the barrel's contents and the boys came to some of their own conclusions. Could it be possible that Tommy's been murdered? How can they discover the truth behind his disappearance? GENTLEMEN is a chilling novel that starts out a little slow but ends with a bang. The cover alone will draw readers in, but the story will make them linger even after the book has been finished. Reviewed by: Jennifer Rummel ![]() Gentlemen (33 1/3) $10.95 Just a quick and easy read about one of my favorite bands. Gives some incite into the making of some of the songs. Wish it had more..I could have read about Dulli for another week. ![]() As A Gentleman Would Say $14.99 They sent me the wrong book, but gave me a full refund promptly, and let me keep the item. ![]() The Modern Gentleman: A Guide to Essential Manners, Savvy and Vice $15.99 Consider this book more closely related to a work of humor fiction like a zombie survival guide, rather than a practical primer to gentlemanly ways. Heavy on amusing ideas and scenarios for eccentric behavior and vice. The stiff prose is intentionally quirky which makes it a pain to read beyond the 20th page. I have rarely found myself as annoyed with a book as on this one. And the dead horse notion of "Flaskmanship"... Don't get me started on their obsession with flasks. |
