Acne Free in 3 Days: How I Cured My Acne Condition in 3 Days


Title: Acne Free in 3 Days: How I Cured My Acne Condition in 3 Days
Author: Chris Gibson

Overview:

The book contains the steps that Chris Gibson used to clear his acne in three days. Yes! in three days. There are several chapters in the Book. In which Gibson talked about his "battle with acne" and the steps that he had previously used to get rid of his acne, well, ONLY gave him temporary results. He mentioned that he had used almost all the products and dermatologist prescription - almost all had worked - but it didn't give him the result that he had expected and promised.

In the middle of the book - there he mentioned the STEPS that he had used to get rid of his acne. The steps are presented clearly and the frequently asked question about the steps are also presented so you will not be confused about anything. In the book, it was also shown that the steps were scientifically proven effective. It contains all the information you need to get started. It explains how the method works and all the products needed to follow the steps and maintain you acne free skin FOREVER.

It also gives useful tips in preventing your acne.


My Opinion:

This book is really good! It gave me a lot of information I was searching for a long time. I haven't used the methods yet, but I had used the tips given by Chris Gibson in the book. His tips really worked. I have acne, but now they are dramatically disappearing. I had also used prescriptions by dermatologist - they worked but slowly and temporarily like Gibson. I am just waiting for my ordered products to arrive, in order for me to do the method (so excited!).

I think I have said a lot. So, I am stopping now, before I get in trouble.lol

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO BUY THIS BOOK!!!!

The price of the book is very cheap. The book is also available in Amazon.

Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl


Title: Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl
Other Title: Het Achterhuis
Author: Anne Frank
Publisher: Bantam Books

US Price: $5.99
Philippine Price: Php265.00

Overview:
This is a true story during the reign of Nazis in Holland. Anne Frank together with her family and some friends went into hiding to escape seizure and death in a place they called "Secret Annexe." This is actually Anne Frank's diary. For two years of their hiding, she wrote a detailed story of what happens inside their hiding haven and also, abut the war going on.

She gave a clear picture of their fear of discovery and death everyday. Anne Frank is only 15 years old but her diary is truly remarkable. It is very well written. The wisdom she shared and the emotions she felt were very deep and it is something you can really relate to.


Quotations from the BOOK:

"Riches can all be lost, but that happiness in your own heart can only be veiled, and it will still bring you happiness again as long as you live. As long as you can look fearlessly up into the heavens, as long as you know that you are pure within, and that you will still find happiness."

"People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but it doesn't stop you from having your own opinion. Even if people are still very young, they shouldn't be prevented from saying what they think."

My Opinion:
Personally, I love the book. I can so much relate to Anne Frank. Her attitudes over her family, her feelings, and views - all resembles mine. I love this book. I can definitely feel for her. While reading her diary I felt that Anne Frank was talking to me. And I always eagerly wanted to flip the pages because I wanted to know what happens next for I also fear the day of their discovery.

Sisters


Title: Sisters
Author: Danielle Steel
Publisher: Bantam Dell
ISBN: 978-0-440-24326-7
Number of Pages: 413 (plus Chapter 1 of Honor Thyself)

U.S. Price: $7.99
Canada Price: $11.99
Philippine Price: PHP299.00

Overview:
A story about 4 sisters in different walks of life. Each of them live separate lives, in different places, different lifestyles. They all went home at their parents house for an annual gathering - that was the only time they were able to see and bond with each other. A tragic accident had happened during that time. And BOOM! They are facing a great challenge of life. It is a test of love, sisterhood/brotherhood, commitment, and importance of family. It was hard for all of them to adjust because they all live in different places, have different lifestyles, BUT in this case they have to live together and face the challenges that had strike them.

My Opinion:
The book holds a really great story. Bu I have to be honest, when I was reading the first chapters I was a little bored. Maybe because Steel's strategy on writing this book is that she had described each sisters on the first chapters before going on with the story. You have to keep on reading although it is a little boring on the first part because the adventure will soon start and you won't be able to stop reading. I was very excited to know what happens next, because the events are happening fast and as always (this is why i love Danielle Steel), the following events are beyond your expectations. You can never guess what happens next with Danielle Steel's novels, because it might just turn out the other way around or something you had never thought might happen.

"Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too - even when you are in the dark. Even when you're falling."


My Opinion:
The book is a MUST read for everyone. It is full of life's lessons. If you have read the book, you will have a better understanding on where you stand. Life is like a game in which you are the player. There arises the questions - Are you a good player? Do you understand the rules of the game? You have all the choices in life. Everything depends on what YOU choose.

Eleven Minutes


Title: Eleven Minutes
Author: Paulo Coelho
Translated in English by: Margaret Jull Costa
Publisher: Harper Torch
ISBN-13: 978-0-06-072675-1
ISBN-10: 0-06-072675-X

International Price: $7.99
Philippine Price: PHP245.00

Overview: A young girl named Maria from Brazil works as a prostitute in Switzerland. She discovers the different types of man who pays for her sexual services. She is a dreamer. Although she is a prostitute, she knows where she is going. She had a vision, a plan for herself. "Never fall in love" - that is her rule. For her, LOVE is a terrible thing that will make you suffer. She develops a fascination with sex, she studied how to give pleasure to her customers. But when she had found love, she had discovered the thing called "SACRED SEX."

Quotations from the Book:

"I can choose either to become a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life."

"After all the time I've spent with the people who come here, I have reached the conclusion that sex has to be used as some kind of drug: in order to escape reality, to forget about problems, to relax. And like all drugs, this is a harmful and destructive practice."

"I allowed him to penetrate me for as long as it took; his nails were digging in my buttocks, and there I was face down on the kitchen table, thinking that there wasn't a better place in the world to make love."

My Opinion: The book is very interesting to read. I actually couldn't get my hands off the book. The book is not just about finding the so-called sacred sex, or what is sex all about. It will give you a better understanding on what is happening on that side of the world. Human trafficking - Maria was a victim, but she is full of wit, instead of feeling sorry for herself, she found a way to play and go with the flow - because she understands that nothing will happen to her if she fought back.


If you look at the book in a different light aside from sex - you will find it essential for learning about the better way to find life and analyze how do you cope with your life.
