Bull Street is Fantastic

Bull Street is Fantastic
By David Lender

Bull Street I have read three books by Lender, and this is his finest yet. He is in his environment with tales of Wall Street. His other book The Gravy Train painted that world in vibrant and authentic realizim. Bull Street goes yet a phase further in diving deep into this world of sketchy character types, uncertain loyalties and double-cross deals. This story about a young man enticed by the greed he runs into, and then of his future struggle to clear his name after he's been tainted by an insider trading ring at his investment banking firm The trading ring involves the most powerful client at the firm, a man who is the premier takeover specialist of his era. The setup is similar to Grisham's The Firm, nevertheless, the plot entails twists that take it in a different direction. The tale attributes raw emotion that you experience at every step. It also has fantastic characters and a story that builds like a symphonic piece. This is a powerful book by a writer who has come into his own with a remarkable story told with compelling power. buy it you will love it.here's the link to buy the book or kindle download or click the Barnes @ noble link if you have the nook.

The Hunger Games (Book 2)
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.

Reviewers were happy to report that the Hunger Games trilogy is alive and well, and all looked forward to the third book in the series after this one's stunning conclusion. But they disagreed over whether Catching Fire was as good as the original book Hunger Games or should be viewed as somewhat of a "sophomore slump." Several critics who remained unconvinced by Katniss's romantic dilemma made unfavorable comparisons to the human-vampire-werewolf love triangle in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. But most reviewers felt that Catching Fire was still a thrill because Collins replicated her initial success at balancing action, violence, and heroism in a way that will enthrall young readers without giving them (too many) nightmares.
