    Interesting read

    I bought this as a gift. Will not be reading it myself. This was made into a movie. Saw movie, it was really great. Sorry I can't be more helpful with this review.

  • Interesting Military Book

    American Sniper is a very informative and useful account of what goes into our Military serving and protecting their country, as well as how it affects a soldier's personal life. This book is written in a very useful way, meaning it is understandable, almost one can picture what is going on, just with reading the words. I have a grandson who is a U.S. Marine, so I wanted to get some idea of what serving the U.S. is for the Military, and I was happy to read this. God Bless our Military and God Bless our Country!

  • A great read, a sad ending

    American Sniper is about the life of the most lethal American sniper in our history, Chris Kyle. It's a page turner, not wanting to put it down. If you have a day or two to spare and want a good read, this book is the one for you..

  • Better than the movie

    It's like reading a story wrote by a good friend. I'm really enjoying the book. I was curious to read it after seeing the movie. There is so much more details in the book than the movie. I felt like there was a gap in the story while watching the movie and you find out there is more than one. A lot of surprises. A humane point of view about war and being an American soldier.

  • Book const5ruction

    Book contents is great- book construction is a little 'strange'. The book is tall and thin in size and is hard to keep open while reading. Because of narrowness, fewer words per line, but other than that it is great. Don Cloyd
