Travels with the ugly Americans.......2007-09-25
This is for the book on CD and I just couldn't get through it. From his loud brother yelling at the airport raising his arms up -- the overgrown frat boy -- to the same brother lying down on a Mayan temple and wondering why it's sacred and being offended that he couldn't get his picture taken on it. Of course, Nicholas doesn't call is brother out on this. What would Micah think if someone laid across a U.S. flag and wanted their photo on it?
They mock other cultures, laugh at pottery, are bored with much of the trip ... and the knuckleheads on the trip with them (I can't believe these people are college graduates) don't understand why Spanish is being spoken over the Super Bowl commentary in Peru. "What is he saying," they ask. You don't know what Spanish sounds like and you're stunned it's broadcast on Peruvian TV? Again, Nicholas has no comment on just how clueless these people are. The author without an opinion.
I continued to get offended by the rich frat-kid type brothers as much as Nicholas' boring, dry, uneventful prose. Also, some of the stuff they did as kids was more than just rambunctious, it was violent. (I.E. rolling people up in carpet and then jumping on them.) Of course, Nicholas -- ever the spectator without an opinion -- does nothing. Clearly the immature children barely grew up.
This is a frustrating read on the trip around the world by two arrogant elitists. Count me out.
A built-in fan club.......2007-09-03
It's apparent to me from reading all the hymns to Sparks' book that the legions of fans of his overwrought, over-emotional novels have flooded the reviews portion of this book, too. While I can't completely condemn the book, primarily because I learned something from some of the histories of the places the brothers visited, I would much have preferred more about the places themselves--NOT the brothers' reactions to them. Other reviewers have commented on the "Ugly American" aspects of their behavior, so there is no need for me to do it, suffice it to say that I agree with those reviewers.
I was touched by their grief over the losses of their parents, but since the children were adults by this time, I also wanted to say, "Get over it," people die and we move on. Sister Dana's death affected me much more, since her lingering death was faced with such strength.
This book has less of the tear-jerker writing style of Sparks' novels, but he still likes to stick in the "kicker line" at times, particularly after a death: "Dana was thirty-three years old" and "It was just the two of us now. Brothers." (The latter word on a line by itself.) Sparks may laugh all the way to the bank at those of us who criticize his writing style, but such obvious appeal to emotions has always struck me as unsubtle and contrived.
Nicholas Sparks best book so far!!!!.......2007-08-21
This is a memoir, unlike his other books, but it is by far the best he's ever written!!!
Nicholas finds a trip on line for 3 weeks around the world. He decides to take his brother Micah and it becomes a trip down memory lane. The sadness, excitement, and joy of their life stories are unremarkable! It seems unreal that someone can have this much grief.
You will LOVE this book!!!!
A good read.......2007-08-19
I've read quite a few memoirs, and this one was quite enjoyable. You know the gist of it from the description/s above: Sparks recounts his childhood while on a trip with his brother. While some parts of the trip were a little dull (that's okay, they were also bored with some of their trip!), it has everything you could want in a good read -- honesty, humor, sadness, triumph, etc.
If you like memoirs -- and even if you don't -- I think you will like this one! I recommend it.

Great Commute.......2007-05-25
I commute 4x a week to work, which is roughly 130 miles round trip (but very worth every mile), and I am always looking for books on CD to listen to on the ride. This story was wonderful to listen to; it made the drive fly by. I found myself excited to get in my car for my trip back and forth, just to hear the next chapter and adventure. The stories of Nicholas Sparks' childhood were my favorite part.
Three Weeks with my Brother.......2006-11-10
Excellent memoir. Kept my attention the entire book and you really felt for the characters. I love all of Nicholas Sparks' fiction books, but this one, you got to know Nicholas Sparks' and read about his interesting life. My husband loved it, too. Very, very good read. Highly recommend!
Excellent.......2006-01-19
As i was traveling with my boyfriend to Florida to visit with my family i acciedntly bought this book. i meant to buy something else by Nicholas Sparks but it just so happens that is was Three weeks with my brother. I dont not have any brothers and up until this point i didnt think that the realastionships between brothers and sisters could be so close. I loved how this book tied in the relationship that the two brothers had as well as the relationship with the whole family. I myself have not done too much traveling around the world and loved the insight that the book gave me. I actually have looked into a trip to see some of the locations that the two brothers went to.
This book was very inspirational. It allowed me to want to connect more with my family as well as my surroundings. I loved it......
Very Emotional.......2005-08-30
It took me a while to get into the autobiography of Nicholas Sparks, but if you can get past the beginning, it is a very emotional story. I listened to it while I was driving and I was tearing up a few times, which isn't too good while driving, LOL. I think this would actually make a good movie.
Three Weeks With My Brother (CD edition).......2004-12-19
This is one of the most wonderful, inspirational, and moving books that I have read. At first, I didn't realize that the authors were Nicholas Sparks, author of The Notebook and Message In A Bottle, among other best selling books, and his brother. I hope this doesn't give anything away except that I am kinda dumb when it comes to remembering authors and titles. The book is really an autobiography covering Nick and his entire family. He covers their many trials and tribulations and still manages to see the good that came out of what for me and others, I suppose, would be absolutely devastating and horrible things to happen. The descriptions of his family members, especially his wife, are outstanding and again food for thought and inspiration. We see how ordinary people can be extraordinary when you know them better.
I listened to this book on CD while driving alone to and from Florida and in a pretty deep depression not being helped much by medications. The CD was really selected because of the travel theme. I love individual travelogues that have a literary and philosophical point of view and have visions of writing something similar myself.
While Three Weeks With My Brother could easily be depressing to some, especially like me, suffering from severe depression and still grieving for a loved one, I found it to be both sad and uplifting as Nick and his brother talked out their life, including the ups and downs. They spoke from the vantage point of both being on what anyone would say is a material up, but they carried with them memories of severe tragedies in their lives, mostly brought about through their unusually strong family ties and love.
I feel the CD edition might be better than the print version since the narrator is so good and the book is both interior thoughts of the author and many conversations. I wondered if they were recorded or all taken from notes, but they were certainly believable.
Anyone facing tough times in their personal life should read this book or listen to the audio. You will be inspired, I feel, if you go to the end. You might be inspired, as I have been, to try once again to take a long trip to think over and contemplate my life. Now I do this in the dead of night at home, making my neighbors think I am either a recluse or some type of secret agent.

Wonderful book!!.......2007-09-14
I was looking for something to read in a bookstore and found this book marked down. I read "The Notebook;" enjoyed the movie first.
"Three Weeks With My Brother" is filled with love, wisdom, challenges and courage.
Get to know Nicholas Sparks!.......2006-12-21
If you want to get to know Nick you must read this book! I had no idea what to expect when I began reading it and I must say it took me by surprise completely. I have a greater understanding and respect - not that I ever thought I had a lack of it - for his life and abilities. This story will open your eyes to what made him who he is, inspired him, and what held him together in the rough times and keeps him grounded - so to speak. I feel like I need to re-read all of his books and I will get even more out of them than I did the first time around. Nick and Micah are brothers in every sense of the word and reading their story of their lives and their 3 week trip together was wonderful. I laughed (cracked up at times!), cried, and was in awe from cover to cover. Thank goodness for the Christmas Blizzard of 2006 as it gave me the day to myself to read the last 3/4 of this book! As usual - couldn't put it down...

Powerful book that delves deep into Human Trafficking!!!.......2007-09-26
I read this book while on vacation and once I started reading I could not stop. I read the entire book within 24 hours! It is simply amazing and quite powerful.
In shocking detail the author describes as to what happens to people mostly young teenage women from Eastern Europe that are victims of sex trafficking. They are manipulated and tricked into going to other countries promising a future in a new job that is completely unrelated to prostitution, e.g., waitressing, modelling, travel agency work, etc. However, once they are at their destination, they are told they need to pay for their trip expenses and cannot leave until they have paid off their debt- in many instances, they die due to disease, murder, or simply abandoned because they are not marketable anymore. Should any of these women oppose, they are usually beaten, raped (often), or tortured until they have succumbed to their pimps and in many instances, murdered.
To suggest that most women have a choice in prostitution is simply naive and moronic. What's worse, in many instances most women are forced into it and in the instances where they are not forced to become prostitutes, it is either that or starvation. People who advocate for prostitution should take a step back and attempt to analyze it for what prostitution really is- exploitation for money.
More amazing is U.S. government complicity in human trafficking in Bosnia via the Department of Defense's subcontractor- DynCorp, Inc. In many instances, Dyncorp employees wer buying and selling teenage girls often leaving them to live in cages or squalor. Quite disturbing but not unheard of!!!
This book is a masterpiece narrative on human trafficking!!! You will be shocked and you will or want to cry. But nevertheless, a traumatic narrative that must be told about human trafficking and its impact on the human population in the 21st century.
Shock and Appall tactics, but read with open mind.......2007-07-06
On comencing to read this book, I was expecting to discover the full extent of what has been called a modern form of slavery and, naturally, to be shocked and appalled.
Actually, upon finishing this book, I was left rather wondering how feminists can expolit real suffering and turn it into a wedge to pursue their own sexual ends. And, if is probably likely, that the evil of sexual trafficking does exist, albeit on a much smaller scale than rants like this book and the general media and feminists would have you believe, that is a shame.
Whilst proclaiming to be an expose of the kidnapping and forcing into prostitution of East European women, the author wastes no opportunity to make his extremist objections to prostitution clear, though (as is the modus operandi of feminists) cleverly splicing together descriptions of real abuse (ie. sexual trafficking) with moral judgements on the ultimate object of rage (ie.prostitution in general). Most accounts of individual 'Natashas' are interwoven with ridiculous and judgemental statements such as 'how could anyone believe that a woman would want to have sex with strangers willingly?'.
Such dishonest tactics and absurd generalisations should chill anyone who approaches this book with an open-mind, and leave one to question every single statement and alleged fact it contains. It appears to a feminist, and to the author of this book, that no woman would willingly trade her body for cash, and if she does so, she is in fact a victim nethertheless and clearly in denial about her status as such. To repeat, this simply renders the book useless as an objective account of sexual trafficking.
Try to read this book with an open mind. Note that before the last soccer world cup was held in Germany, feminists were screaming that 40,000 women would be trafficked unless prostitution was immediately outlawed. Prostitution was not outlawed, not even for the duration of the world cup. The police later revealed that 5 cases of prostitution linked to human trafficing had been found during the competition, 1/8000 of the level that feminists had predicted. And yes, it is possible that a woman from Eastern Europe might choose of her own volition to seek a better standard of living by having sex with strangers in London or Paris, just as millions of them have chosen of their own free will to come to London or Paris to work 12 hours a day in soulless factories for 1/100th of the money.
"Freedom", grinding poverty, corruption, and dregs of humanity make life hell for 100,000s of women.......2007-03-14
I read enough of this disturbing book to get the basic premise: Women in poor counties are basically a commodity to used, abused, and discarded when no longer profitable.
The free world rejoiced when iron curtain of the Evil Empire came down. Now Eastern Europe has McDonald's, a new found "freedom" that caused the Soviet Union to collapse, and a burgeoning mafia that is so virulent they are often better armed than the police, and in other cases they are one in the same or they control the police. This is evidenced by the fact that police refuse to do anything about the large scale kidnapping and forced prostitution of women and girls. Often it goes on in plain sight of the police. After seeing film footage and hearing stories about how people lived under the Communist regime I wouldn't have thought it couldn't have gotten much worse but apparently I was wrong. It certainly doesn't appear to have improved any.
Trafficking in women is apparently widespread and quite lucrative. Particularly daunting is how many of the women were lured into the snares of pimps by the treachery of family members and so called friends or pillars of the community. In some rural communities in Eastern European countries the abduction of young girls is so widespread parents won't let their daughters walk to school (cars are something we take for granted in the US). In several cases these young women are university educated but there are no jobs for them in their respective countries. In one case (I saw on TV) a woman from Moldova who was kidnapped was lured with the promise of a clerk job making a whopping US$100 a month!
All this left me wondering about the demand, without which this modern day slave trade would cease to exist. Descriptions of women beaten to a pulp, locked down in filthy warehouses, and guarded by thugs might cause one to wonder just what kind of creeps would "patronize" such an "establishment." Apparently they are nice normal men with respectable jobs, often with NGO's and peacekeeping forces, and no doubt the local police; in other words the very people who should be trying to help these women.
The author doesn't really give a lot of information that hasn't already been on TV. He also doesn't offer any hope as far as what any of us in the US and other wealthy nations can do to end this abomination. This book left me depressed but evermore grateful that I live in America where there are plenty of jobs, even jobs that most Americans don't want; the kind that the Natashas would consider themselves lucky to have.
well researched and very sad.......2006-02-27
This is a very informative book and one of the saddest I have read. The sad plight of Eastern European women in the sex trade has reached monumental proportions. It doesn't look like there is anything to stop the trade unless politicians seriously get involved. I was very moved by the personal stories of these women. Malarek did the right thing by investigating hot spots himself in various countries. Well written and doesn't drag. Engaging and honest.
Book Description
On the black market, they're the third most profitable com- modity, after illegal weapons and drugs-the only difference being that these goods are human, though to their handlers they are wholly expendable. They are women and girls, some as young as 12, from all over the Eastern bloc, where sinister networks of organized crime have become entrenched in the aftermath of the collapse of Communist regimes. In Israel, they're called Natashas, whether they're actually from Russia, Bosnia, the Czech Republic, or Ukraine, no matter what their real names may be. They're lured into vans and onto airplanes with promises of jobs as waitresses, mod-els, nannies, dishwashers, maids, and dancers. But when they arrive at their destinations, they are stripped of their identifi-cation, and their nightmare begins. They are sold into pros-titution and kept enslaved; those who resist are beaten, raped, and sometimes killed as examples. They often have nowhere to turn; in many cases, the men who should be res- cuing them-from immigration officials to police officers and international peacekeepers-are among their aggressors.

A brilliant call to action.......2006-12-21
The fall of the soviet union opened up eastern europe to one things: money for sex. The rotten Soviet economy caused the people to be impoverished but at the same time it had offered them education so they were not willing to live a meager life, as many do in Africa and elsehwere, then the state had made them 'open minded' and thus there was no traditional soceity to take care of young women and support them, so they were lured by jobs abroad and sold into slavery. PRimarily they went to Western Europe where "open democratic progressive" soceity tolerated the enslavement of more than a million prositutes. These women were kept chained up 'servicing' "enlightened" europeans, the same europeans who condemn 'human rights abuses' and they serviced these Germans and French and other europeans who couldnt rape 12-15 year olds in their own countries. In addition these sex slaves were bought and sold by NATO and UN troops in Bosnia, which became a center in the trade and traffiking in women in the 1990s after it became a colony of NATO and the UN.
This is a brilliant book, heartrending and tragic. However despite the fact that it exposes the role of the UN and western europeans in the sex-salve trade in eastern european women it doesnt shed light on either the origins of the illness, Communism, or the more racist and colonialistic aspects of this. Western Europeans, who pretend to beleive in human rights, are overwhelmingly the clients who purchase these slaves' services and it is also the West that has created this and tolerated it. The same west that likes to lecture these eastern european nations on 'democracy'. It should have been pointed out the blatent hypocrisy that takes place whereby Western europe colonized Eastern europe to enslave its women and literally rape it.
A tragic story.
Seth J. Frantzman
Must read!.......2006-04-24
This is a great book - eye-popping, informative, detailed description of the issue. Personal insight and interviews with TOP LEVEL players. Clear outline of U.S. & International attempts and failings to deal with issue - but also straightforward suggestions. A MUST READ - excellent resource.
Excellent discussion of the Annual State Department Report "Trafficking in Persons" and associated tier assignments.
A Must-Read on a Modern Holocaust.......2006-04-20
Just as when Auschwitz and Treblinka were in operation, few people today are paying attention to the mass annihilation of countless hundreds of thousands of women and girls in the worldwide rape mills. These females are the seed corn of struggling Eastern European nations: 1 in 5 has a university degree, and most of the others are at least trying to get a university education. They answer bogus job offers which lead to sex slavery in hopes of having enough money to finish their higher education. Instead, they end up dead, insane, crippled or in halfway houses far from home. Only when this issue becomes a drumbeat among humane citizens in all informed and educated countries will concrete action ever be taken to stop this enormous destruction of human lives and potential.
Despite what P. Pray said about Malarek's book, it is well-researched. Malarek travelled extensively and interviewed numerous people in the Czech Republic, including the Czech/German border area which is apparently an entire region given over to mob-controlled sex slavery, heavily guarded by many on-the-take Czech cops. P. Pray is probably in the 'Natasha' business himself.....think about this book, and the victims it describes, the next time you hear a guy making veiled leering comments about his trip to Prague/Berlin/Amsterdam/Munich/Moscow/Dubai/Greece/Istanbul/Bangkok/Manila/Vegas/Atlantic City.....read this book and you'll realize that when Anne Frank said that people were generally good at heart, that she'd spent too much time in the attic. As an Army officer, I was especially shocked and saddened by the descriptions of girls being repeatedly and routinely raped, traded and sold by US servicemen and contractors in Bosnia, Kosovo and South Korea, with the knowledge and complicity of senior US commanders. I had heard soldiers making sniggering comments about "juicy bars" in the Balkans and Korea; now I know what they were referring to. And this is the Army/Marine Corps full of self-styled "God-fearing Christians" which fights for "freedom" in Iraq and elsewhere?! "How can Satan cast out Satan?" If God punishes the perpetrators of slavery and industrialized rape, then the US and many other states are in for some serious retribution......
Given the ubiquity of the governmental, bureaucratic and NGO corruption described by Malarek, the only probable solutions to the sex slave trade are 1) general social awareness of the crimes within countries able to press politically for solutions, as well as source nations of trafficked women; 2) AGGRESSIVE acts like economic sanctions by states like the US against nations like Germany, Greece, Italy, Israel, Russia, Ukraine, et al which are either exporting their females for sex slavery, or importing them; and 3) the "Medellin solution": emulation of the Columbians who destroyed Pablo Escobar's criminal drug-trafficking empire by tracking and executing large numbers of those connected with the drug trade which undermined Columbian society. Widespread resistance networks of victims' families, their friends and sympathizers, and patriotic citizens in Russia, Ukraine, Moldova, the Baltic states and other afflicted countries, ready and eager to kill pimps, procurers, mob accountants and bankers, as well as those who knowingly abuse sex slaves, would dramatically gain world attention to the trade. Especially if American johns were the ones being shot or stabbed!
"A gun not words is needed" --Ilya Ehrenburg, after the liberation of Maidanek extermination camp, 1944
Interesting reading.......2006-01-15
Marek acted as an editor in the compilation of information widely available on the Internet or public sources regarding the sex slave trade. The book was easy to read and can be completed in a short period of time. Marek did a good job at outlining the scale of the problem, however stop short of discussing how the global planet should address the issue.
Human Trafficking Essential.......2005-11-21
'The Natashas : Inside the New Global Sex Trade' is certainly not the first book to expose the international human slave trade, but it is essential reading all the same. Human trafficking, or "trafficking in persons," as it is called by the US State Department, is a complex and revolting issue. The more we learn about it, the more we are aghast at such a disgusting crime. Our hearts break for the victims and despair under the weight of the overwhelming numbers involved. There are many books, some quite good, others less so, but most of them are out of date--predating The Natashas by many years. However, The Natashas is one of four recent books that stand above the rest. They are unquestionably accurate, moving and informative. Together, these four books are the essential beginning course in understanding human trafficking.
'The Natashas : Inside the New Global Sex Trade' offers a desperate truth about the victims, their experiences, dark and ugly. Not an easy book to read, but an essential part of understanding the human cost of human trafficking.
This is the third book to read in understanding human trafficking. First, read 'Race Against Evil: The Secret Missions of the Interpol Agent Who Tracked the World's Most Sinister Criminals;' then 'Illicit : How Smugglers, Traffickers and Copycats are Hijacking the Global Economy;' followed by 'Woman, Child for Sale: The New Slave Trade in the 21st Century.'
