Paths of Glory by Jeffrey Archer is a great book and I recommend it to all those that are looking for a good adventure. The story is fictional, but the basis is found in a true story. The book tells us about a man, named George Mallory, attempting to climb Mount Everest. The story is placed in the mid 20’s, almost 30 years earlier than the first real climb to the summit of the tallest mountain on earth.
Our hero has problems in his early life because of the lack of money, but he struggles and eventually, Mallory manages to get a scholarship to Cambridge. The story jumps ahead a bit and we see George Mallory as a history teacher and from there on we can read about the climb. The story itself is not very focused on the climbing part, but even so, I found it as a great book because of the true life story it involves, apart from the climbing, as mentioned earlier.
The main part of the story is the struggle of the normal people in the times before the war. This is interesting, but I hoped for a more intriguing story and I was expecting a lot more details about Mallory’s climb. In this aspect, I was disappointed, but you might actually love the way Archer describes the way our hero manages to reach the desire of climbing the mountain and that, I think, was just another metaphor about the climb each of us needs to perform in our lives.
Archer has a very nice writing style and the story is pretty good on the areas it focuses on, so if you like stories about some person’s life, this is probably the book you should purchase in the near future. As far as the actual title of the book goes, I think it basically says enough about the book. I love hearing how people get rich and successful and if you love being motivated in your life, Paths of Glory by Jeffrey Archer is a great book.
Paths of Glory by Jeffrey Archer has the merit of not being too long and that makes it easy to read during the lunch break at the office or at night before going to bed. I read it in 4 days and I feel good about reading it because I didn’t feel like I wasted my time. I give it an 4 out of 5.

Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man: What Men Really Think About Love, Relationships, Intimacy, and Commitment is one of the nice novels, written by Steve Harvey. The book seems to be really interesting for all the classes of readers; irrespective of their gender, nationality, religion and the like. Even though this book is dedicated to all women, it definitely seems to be interesting even to all men, as well.

Comeback or no comeback, Circus (2008) is to date one of Britney Spears’ most significant albums. It is the first album to be released by a Britney that has more or less settled down from the chaotic mess that her life has been since the infamous incident with a particular shaver and her hair. In all honesty, however, it is a commendable effort of an album; in many of the tracks – even the virtually omnipresent Womanizer – Britney’s voice has regained its existence independent of vocoders or synths. That is not to say that the album is free from them – indeed, many of the tracks continue to feature her vocals layered multiple times over underlying synth or duplicated voices. Still, it is a relief to hear Britney singing again, with some toning down of the electronica-style crafting that went into the production of the songs on Blackout.


Jazz has been experiencing a revival lately. Numerous artists are responsible, but none so much as Michael Bublé. The name is likely to be known even among those who do not ordinarily listen to jazz. Bublé's pop-jazz renditions of the classic standards has reintroduced famous jazz pieces back into the mainstream, and some even bigger than they were back when they first came out.



Since they began in 2004 with their debut album "We all know is falling", Paramore has recently shot up to fame within the pop rock, Paramore never really got the ball rolling. However, with the 2007 release of their second album "Riot!", this respectful band has hit the right spot with their audiences, shooting themselves to some fame. Paramore's music has been noted for it's rare youthful enthusiasm, the main factor which contributed to their explosive music. It is so apt that their choice of title, "Riot!" itself actually means a sudden outburst of energy or emotion.
