Minerva
Raven-haired Minerva, eldest daughter of an impecunious vicar, When the Reverend Charles Armitage, an impecunious country vicar in Regency England, announces that raven-haired Minerva, the eldest of his six daughters, is to have her coming-out in London, the news is not well received by the rest of the family. Mrs. Armitage has one of her Spasms and has to be brought round by burning a quantity of feathers under her nose. Annabelle, the nearest in age to Minerva, is clearly jealous, the boys are all surly, and the other girls just start off crying. Minerva is despatched to Town under the wing of the disreputable old Lady Godolphin. Her task - to find a rich husband and thereby restore the ailing family fortunes. But the other five daughters will all get their chance, because Minerva is but the first volume in The Six Sisters series by Marion Chesney.

The Taming of Annabelle
From the moment honey-tressed young Annabelle met her sister Minerva's intended, Lord Sylvester, she developed a secret passion for him that obsessed her. Now she was determined to take him away from Minerva - no matter what!

But Annabelle hadn't reckoned on Lord Sylvester's best friend, Peter, who falls in love with her and decides to tame her growing passions towards the wrong man!

Deirdre and Desire
Red-haired, jade-eyed Deirdre is determined to marry for Love - nothing else will do. So the fact her father's candidate for her hand, Lord Harry Desire, is well bred and good looking, interests her not a jot! But the feelings he arouses in her are truly distracting.

Deirdre's discovery of what desire can mean and where her heart really lies brings about a delicious climax to this adventure of intrigue, misunderstanding - and love!

Daphne
Daphne Armitage is the acknowleged beauty of that family of renowned belles, but beauty is more than skin deep.

Black-haired, exquisite Daphne is certain she can avoid the turmoil of true love by demanding nothing more of a husband than to be an elegant companion. Teh self-absorbed Mr Archer seems to fit the bill to perfection. But when Mr Simon Garfield agitates Daphne's calm outward manner, the results are dramatic and delightful!

Diana the Huntress
Diana's passion is a rather strange one for a lady - she loves to hunt while dressed as a man!

With her lustrous black hair and enormous dark eyes, Diana is shy of men yet dreams of the freedom they must enjoy. Only when she is invited to Town by the icily blond Lord Mark Dantrey does she begin to realise that being a women does have unexpected advantages. And what of the gypsy, who prophesised a dark stranger, and warned of a fair one? Surprising twists and turns await Diana on the path of true love.

Frederica in Fashion
Whether dressed in her finery or disguised as a frump, he wanted her just the same!

How can plain Frederica withstand a Season's scrutiny after the five beauties before her have married so magnificently? The only solution is to run away from home...

Disguised as a chambermaid, Freddie soon finds her way into the household of the fashionable Duke of Pembury. But the wild gentleman is soon on to her tricks and finds himself escorting Freddie back to London, where, once again on the marriage mart, her sisters make over the tomboyish runaway until even she cannot recognise herself!

But a certain gentleman can, and so it would seem that Freddie is not fated to be plain - or unmarried - after all....

It benefits the high-level language programmers - Listing formatting good now
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Even if not writing assembly code directly, it benefits the high-level language programmer to understand the CPU architecture and instruction set. You can help the compiler do a better job by writing your code with the hardware in mind. When it comes to debugging, it can be helpful to look at things at the assembly level. And if you are programming with SIMD intrinsics, you are still programming in assembly language and understanding the architecture is necessary. This book gets you up to speed with all the above and more. Also, the listing formatting problem that others have mentioned seems to have been fixed. I deleted the months old download from my device, downloaded again, and the listing were now good. Tested on an iPad, a Kindle Paperwhite, and a MacBook Pro.

Bible on x64 Assembler, but not for coding beginners.
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The best way to review this book is in two parts, 1st a review of the book, 2nd to address the negative reviews about the readability of the code in the Kindle edition which is the one I have. I have several books on Assembly Language, starting with the long out of print 1986 “Peter Norton’s Assembly Language Book for the IBM PC.” Over the years I have acquired several books on Assembly Language. I find Randall Hyde’s book to be hands down the best reference and most in depth book on x86/x64 Assembly language. What I feel separates Hyde’s book from others is it goes into detail on each register and machine function. Which is then backed up with numerous illustrations to help explain the concepts, code, and quizzes to test your understanding. This is not a book for coding beginners on x86/x64 Assembly, IMO, as the author jumps right in with examples that I feel are too complex and too verbose for the novice. To help fill in the gaps alongside this book, I recommend using Mike McGrath’s, “Assembly x64 Programming in easy steps”, which guide the novice with colorful illustrations step by step, on the processor, number systems, linking, and building basic Assembly programs, in byte sized chunks, that are easy to understand for the novice. Also, a basic knowledge of C++ will be needed to use this book, as several example C++ programs make Assembly calls from within the program. Again, I recommend Mike McGrath’s “C++ Programming in easy steps.” For a basic review if you lack C++ knowledge. You’ll need the free IDE Visual Studio 2022 Community edition (not VS Code) with the C++ libraries, as that is where the MASM is located. As for the readability of the code in the Kindle version, there is a workaround which is better than reading the code from the book. A link is provided to download all the code listed in the book in a zip file. Most of the code is organized by listing number from the book. Once VS2022 is on your computer, double-click on the download file you’re interested in and the code will open properly formatted in VS2022 as shown in the attached images. You will be able to interact with the code, which is more productive than just reading from the book. This is an excellent book on x86/x64 Assembly language, looking forward to volume 2. After reading this book, the only way to get further in depth knowledge of the x86 processor IMO is from Intel's massive 4 volume reference.

Good reference manual for64 Bit Assembly Programming. Not an Introductory text.
Format: Paperback
I initially bought Assembly x64 in easy steps: Modern coding for MASM, SSE & AVX which is an excellent introduction to 64 Bit Assembly. This book however IS NOT an Introductory book - it is more a Reference to X64 Assembly. If you are new to Assembly Programming I suggest buying the introductory book and if you are serious about Assembly Programming then buy this book.

Parenting philosophy for all ages and stages
Format: Hardcover
Good Inside is the book I find myself referencing more than any other parenting book - well any book for that matter. I'm sure I annoy my friends! I annoy myself with my constant Dr. Becky this, and Dr. Becky that, but the truth is, I want more for my child. And in seeking out ways to understand him better, approach him better, be there for him better, Dr. Becky Kennedy allowed me to look at my own inner child and want better for her too. Good Inside helped me identify sources of my own pain, start healing, and empower me with tools to approach my child's struggles with more compassion, understanding, and confidence. This book sits perfectly between the scientific approach of Whole Brain Child and the spiritual views of The Enlightened Parent. You're gonna get a dose of warm fuzziness with a whole lot of practical and psychological gold! And as I hinted at before, this is for kids of all ages. You're not just getting a book aimed at how to survive the 2yo stage. You're getting a perspective that embeds itself into every relationship you have. Yes; it has been enormously useful with my toddler, but it has also helped my marriage. So, let me annoy you too. Becky Becky Becky!
