"Its not about the Bike, My Journey back to Life" is a long and awkward title. But Lance Armstrong's writes about so many life changing experiences, such as being a cancer survivor, not growing up with a father and winning the Tour DE France 5 times. The words of wisdom inside this book makes the title a blip on the radar screen. Some people write books about surviving cancer. Some write about living without a father. And some write about winning a bike race. Lance Armstrong gives us a story with all of these elements in it, all about one person and one life (himself). Also, he did not just win a bike race. He won the most grueling and prestigious bicycle race in the world 5 times. Using all of these elements; Lance Armstrong produces one of the best autobiographies I have ever read.

How did Lance Armstrong learn to cope with these major issues?
Why is he such a success?

Deception Point by Dan Brown is an enticing novel with many twists and turns keeping the reader interested. The book is so height pace, the tension starts in the prologue and only builds from there. Once you hit the last 100 pages, you can't put in down because you just need to know what happens. For example, when Rachel Sexton and her expert team of scientist plunge themselves into the arctic to uncover a rare artifact for the president. They are ambushed by assassins. A twist that almost no one could predict.
