When I first got this album, after the strengths of Chasing Pavements, I decided to purchase this album. I like Amy Winehouse, but not looking good for her. Adele is different in the way she sings, you wouldn't think she was only 19. Her voice sounds Soulful/Jazz going to acoustic and pop. The lyrics are very poignant, in the way that it's way it's sung.
Adele wrote every track and the music
Here is my rundown
1 Daydreamer - This sounds like it's based on a boy who is another relationship, or he cheated on someone.
2 - Best For Last - This sounds like the woman is wanting the man to provide and to treat her right. It feels the woman is getting fed up with the man who seems he isnt bothered about love
3 - Chasing Pavements, This is based on a fight that happened, but to me it's like you don't know where to turn in life. It ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of 19 - Adele
In a bid to lose a few pounds after uni (too much alcohol & too many takeaways) I was looking for a good all round exercise machine, and elliptical trainers were recommended by some friends.
"Why?" I enquired.
"The answer is simple" came the reply, "they are a great cardiovascular work out and the pedals mimic the body's natural movements when running, so essentially you are running, but there is no impact - saving your joints and bones!"
"Genius!" I replied.
And so my quest to buy a machine began.
After looking at a variety of makes and models, I decided upon the York 3100 Elliptical Trainer & Cycle. It looked the sturdiest, could handle the most maximum weight (16 stone - not that I was this large, but obviously the larger the maximum weight, the stronger the machine), was from a brand that I had heard of and trusted ...
Advantages: Rolls along after a slow start, big scope and scale Disadvantages: The slow start and the fact that I did not really like the characters enough to care about them
The 19th Wife
What is this story about?
This novel tells several stories simultaneously, switching between three narrators: A contemporary narrator called Jordan is dealing with the fact that his father has been shot dead and his mother, the main suspect, is in jail. His mother is the 19th wife of the narrator?s polygamous father, who lives in the Utah desert in a religious sect (the sect is a break-away from the Mormons)
The second voice is from the 1870?s memoirs of Ann Eliza Young the 19th wife of Brigham Young, Prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints (the Saints or commonly known as the Mormons).
The third voice is a contemporary voice of a Mormon academic who is writing a paper on Ann Eliza (the academic turns out to be a descendant of Ann Eliza, the 19th wife).
