Description:
From the inimitable Rabih Alameddine - National Book Award finalist and winner of the PEN/Faulkner Award - comes a tragicomic saga set in Lebanon, a modern story of family, memory, and the unbreakable (and insane) attachment of a son and his mother.In a tiny Beirut apartment, sixty-three-year-old Raja and his mother live side by side. A beloved high school philosophy teacher and the 'neighbourhood homosexual,' Raja relishes books, mediative walks, order, and solitude. Zalfa, his octogenarian mother, views her son's privacy as a personal affront. She craves nothing more than to know the ins and outs of Raja's work life and love life, boundaries be damned.When Raja receives an invite to an all-expenses-paid writing residency in America, the timing couldn't be better. It arrives on the heels of a series of personal and national disasters that have left Raja itching for peace and quiet away from his mother and the heartache of Lebanon. But what at first seems a stroke of good fortune soon leads Raja to recount and relive the very disasters and past betrayals he wishes to leave behind. Wickedly funny, heartbreaking, and told in Raja's irresistible voice, The True, True Story of Raja the Gullible dances across six decades to tell the unforgettable story of a singular life and its absurdities - a tale of mistakes, self-discovery, trauma, and maybe even forgiveness. Above all, it's a wild and sparkling celebration of love.

Useful Bible for Taking Notes or Writing Out Prayers in Response All in an Attractive Format
Format: Leather Bound
First off, I won’t be reviewing and evaluating “the Bible”, because the Bible is supposed to evaluate you, confront you, call you, and claim you for God. So, whether you read this edition or another, let God’s Word teach, woo, and draw you to Him!
As for this edition of the ESV, as some have noted, the font is on the smaller size, but still readable for most (your results may vary!). As it is a journaling Bible, on each page is a wide lined section for you to take study notes or sermon notes, make comments, write out prayers in response or whatever use you want to make of it. If you are new to God’s Word, the publishers have included some helps in the introductory matter, including a page on ‘Why Read the Bible?’ and several pages on ‘What the Bible says about...’, covering various topics and where to find them in Scripture. There are introductions for both the Old Testament and the New Testament. And after the end of the Scripture texts (Revelation), the publishers have also included some helpful resources like, ‘God’s Plan to Save You’, ‘Introductions to each book of the Bible’ and a plan to read through the Bible in a year. The leather has a very nice feel to it and (I hope) will wear and age well. The strap is new for me, but it was pretty easy to use to keep the Bible closed. (Maybe it’s just me, but it’s a little odd having such a long strap hang while I’m reading it!). There is also a leather loop inside to keep a pen handy for your note taking and journaling. By the way, the size is a little unique, as it is almost square, so it might be an awkward carry, and I would guess for women that it might only fit in a really large purse. Overall, if you want a Bible to use for more in-depth study and to take notes on what you find, this might be a good choice for you.

Nice quality ESV 2 column Bible
Format: Leather Bound
Nice soft cover. It is smaller than the hardcover ESV journaling bible I have, which isn't necessarily a problem. This is also a two column bible. The font is 7pt, so it is fairly small. It's also fairly squarish at about 6.5x7.5inches. The strap comes separate, which is nice because if you don't want to have to tie and untie your Bible every time you want to open it, you can just leave it off. There is only one ribbon, but I honestly tend to use bookmarks more than ribbons anyway. There is also a pen loop inside to hold a normal-sized pen (probably won't fit a large one)
Content
- Ownership page - not dedication, just this Bible belongs to
- An invitation to the journaling Bible
- Copyright page - printed in China, 2001 version
- Contents
- Why Read the Bible - 1 page
- What the Bible Says About - 5.5 pages giving scripture references for various topics
- Preface - Standard ESV Preface
- Explanation of Features - short 1-page note about things like textual footnotes and cross-reference footnotes
- The Old Testament - 2 page introduction followed by the text
- The New Testament - 2 page introduction followed by the text
- Plan of Salvation - just over 3 pages
- Introductions to the Books of the Old Testament - It seems weird that they are at the end and not with the actual books. There are about 5 introductions per page, so they are really short
- Introductions to the Books of the New Testament - Same note as above. Is it really an introduction if it is at the end?
- Through the Bible in a Year Reading Plan - Daily dated reading plan that includes OT, Psalms, and NT each day. It will have you read through the OT once, Psalms twice, and NT twice

Works great, easy to assemble.
Size: 2 Tier-9.5''Wx10.5''Dx9.5''H
I bought this to try and contain our cabinet clutter. It works really well. Was easy to assemble.
I use it on the countertop instead of inside of the cabinets. Looks nice enough to sit out.
Will buy 1 more in the coming days.
The storage areas pull out, makes for easy access.

Awesome Spice Rack!
Size: 2 Tier-13.5''Wx10.5''Dx9.5''H
This works perfectly. I bought two as I have a lot of spices. Do need to remember that the height needed for unit is 9 inches, but with full size spice jars on top rack, you need at least 11 inches. Otherwise it works great. Smooth movement of the drawers. Very sturdy and stable.
