Summary: The Futures Best Seagull
Review: This was a very good book! It was about a Flock of seagulls that they thought that the only reason to even live was to fly for food to survive. Jonathan Livingston Seagull was the only gull in the Flock that thought otherwise. Jonathan wouldn't stay with the Flock. All that he wanted to do was fly. Everyday, day after day, he would practice flying. His instructor, Sullivan, taught him new things everyday. Jonathan then went a step further, he went for speed. When Jonathan was practicing speed, he came upon a shoreline where he met Elder Seagull. Elder was the fastest seagull and no one has ever been able to beat him, until he showed Jonathan his trick. Do you think that Jonathan learned how, or did he just walk away from Elder Seagull? I liked this book because it was very interesting. Jonathan Livingston Seagull was an Outcast and wasn't like all the others. He kind of went his own way,and what the others did didn't matter to him. This book taught me a lot and if you read or have read it,I hope that it teaches or has taught you something.

Summary: Pointless, boring, a waste of time...
Review: I read this book while I was in a tent high on the upper part of Kilimanjaro, looking for some inspiration, and got nothing but a silly story about a rebel seagull. Apparently, it's supposed to be an allegory. Apparently.

He want to try out new flying techniques.He strike for the best in himself, seeking perfection,set a higher goal and show a good example for all to learn. How it yearn to learn the art of living.

Summary: Helps you realize the purpose of life
Review: This is not just a book. It has the power to change the way you live your life, forever. It helped me understand the latent immense potential of every being, living and non-living. Everyone of us has a purpose, whether we realize it or not. All of us are capable of doing whatever we want to do. There are absolutely no limits to neither the strength nor the speed with which we can achieve what we want. Life has a meaning. If we can truly find what it is, we can get the real never-ending happiness in life.

Summary: OF THE BOOKS/AUTHORS WHO MADE ME WHO I AM....
Review: I first read this book in high school. Several years later, I remembered the book as a good book about seagulls, but read it again on the recommendation of a friend. I was astounded at the wisdom that was written within the words to this simple story of a seagull learning how to fly. For me it is a magical and has taught me much of the path of life. I have read this book perhaps a dozen times now at various stages of my life, and each time it answers a question about my life that had been unanswered for some time. Of all of Bach's books, "Jonathon" is the most magical book for me, "Illusions" also touches a deep chord with its magical words from the "Handbook of Life". And "Bridge Across Forever" awakened in me a quest for a special soulmate to share this adventurous journey called life.

Summary: Namasté
Review: A simple and uncomplicated reminder to us all of who we really are. In this busy, hectic world, it's beauty is it's brevity-a place to refer to without using up days of time. I find it interesting that those who choose to give it poor reviews seem to to be so venemous and angry about it. Human nature tends to fear and condem what it doesn't understand-much like the flock of gulls who turn their backs to Jonathan. Namasté

Summary: This is such an inspirational book
Review: Both my friend and former teacher had read this book and they both absolutely loved it. They said it was spiritual. I decided to check it out. I read the book in one hour and I couldn't put it down! It is such a motivational message wrapped up in a light-hearted story. I have been living differently since I read Jonathan Livingston the Seagull because I now question things more and live life to the fullest!

Summary: Inspiring
Review: I continually return to this metaphoric work in times of uncertainty in my life. This story, which tells of a seagull unsatisfied in following the flock, is both mesmerizing and inspiring. The photographs are as much a part of the story as are the words of Richard Bach. A quick read, but one that will no doubt leave quite an impression.

Summary: A GROSSLY OVERRATED INSULT
Review: This book is an insullt to people everywhere. The fact that many enjoy it is shameful. This silly little "children's book" of about 90 pages with large type is about as intellectually stimulating as being hit in the head with a rock. It's plot and characters are dull, and the metaphorical garbage it spews out at you is disgusting.
