  • Amazon Customer - Different perspective

    I'd previously wondered how the Tudor brothers came to be close with their half brother the king, considering their scandalous roots. This book brought a new perspective to that relationship. Quite enjoyable!

  • gnudung - Search may be less FUBAR than before, but still that acronym applies

    Kindle edition: it's a database, but it does not act like one. Just try to find a film, for example Frozen. The search will return a few characters from exacly 100 -- that's right -- one hundred -- entries. You get to click away to see which is the one you seek. Also, even if all you want to search are the reviews, it will search the lists, awards, cast, directors, &c. It's a great tool, the reviews are good, and VideoHound reviewers are much stricter than their competitors in awarding top marks, a feature I like. Search, aaaagggghhhhh.

  • Friendly Bubba - Wasted Money

    Had no effect on me one way or the other. Do not waste your money. If it really worked as advertised, we would see news reports on television about a new miracle weight reduction pill called Lipozene. Has any doctor ever recommended Lipozene as a weight reduction aid? Ask your own doctor. On the commercials do you hear phrases such as "the Mayo Clinic recommends Lipozene," or "nine out of ten doctors recommend Lipozene?" Sorry I wasted money on the product. I should have known better.

  • Ashley W. - This stuff works wonders!!!!

    With a healthy colon, you should have a bowel movement everyday. This helped to regulate my system and cleanse me of toxins and processed foods that have been backing me up for a long time. It's a great jump start to weight loss. I used this for 10 days and it helped me rid 10 pounds of waste from my colon. When you have a clean colon it's easier to lose weight and I was able to lose 10 more pounds easily through a healthy diet and exercise. Don't keep eating processed foods on this cleanse. You will hate yourself for it because your stomach WILL hurt. Lol. Eating raw fruits and veggies with lean vegetables will aid in better weight loss and an overall better experience.
