I guess I should add that I do not enjoy cooking and my husband does most of the cooking at our house. However, Ree makes me want to cook! Her pictures and simple recipes are just what a girl like me needs.             99 Drams of Whiskey: The Accidental Hedonist's Quest for the Perfect Shot and the History of the Drink2 reviews Kate Hopkins St. Martin's Press, 2009 Travel + History + Good Drink = Bliss The publisher's description of "part travelogue, part distillery guide, and part history book" is accurate but lacking. This book is fun! My curiosity grew to interest and giggles while reading 99 Drams. Ms. Hopkins kept her book an easy read by balancing the density of history with whiskey tasting notes and anecdotes from her visits to renowned distilleries.             Anguished English: An Anthology of Accidental Assaults Upon Our Language32 reviews Richard Lederer Dell, 1989 Anguished English: An Anthology of Accidental Assaults Upon Our Language Sitting in my chiropractors examination room, I picked this book up and started reading it as I waited for him to finish with his other patients. I studied liberal arts in college years ago and as I thumbed my way through the pages of this book, I started laughing histerically as tears streamed down my cheeks! I couldn't put it down because it was getting better with every discovered page. The ...             The Accidental Billionaires: The Founding of Facebook A Tale of Sex, Money, Genius and Betrayal57 reviews Ben Mezrich Doubleday, 2009 An inspiring story I'm almost done reading this amazing book, and have been sincerely enjoying it. It's easy to relate to the characters as I'm also a young college entrepreneur. The book is easy to read and provides a great deal of motivation. I would really recommend it to anyone who aspires to achieve success and wants to understand how one of the most amazing start-ups in modern history succeeded.             My Rotten Life (Nathan Abercrombie, Accidental Zombie)6 reviews David Lubar Starscape, 2009 Reluctant Reader? Read My Rotten Life! If you like books that make you laugh out loud AND feel empathy for what the main character is going through, then look no further than My Rotten Life: Nathan Abercrombie, Accidental Zombie. Kids will identify with Nathan's plight from the first page until the last, as they devour the book to see what happens next. Nathan is a fifth-grader who is having a bad day. Actually, it starts out as a ...             Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood46 reviews Michael Lewis W. W. Norton & Company, 2009 Laugh Out Loud Funny This is a seriously funny book about being a father. I sent it to my adult son who is raising a teenage son. He said it was all too true. We shared many of the thoughts that Michael Lewis wrote about in the book. Great present for any father who can smile.             The Accidental Guerrilla: Fighting Small Wars in the Midst of a Big One62 reviews David Kilcullen Oxford University Press, USA, 2009 A must read. It is hard to imagine a better book for understanding what Petraeus and his team have done in Iraq and are trying to do in Afghanistan. Kilcullen is both an insider (a very close advisor to Petraeus) and outsider (an Australian) and the combination allows him to give a very close account without appearing to take sides or settle scores. If you are debating anybody interested in the US military ...             The Accidental Time Machine115 reviews Joe Haldeman Ace, 2008 TIME TRAVEL WITH HALDEMAN Joe Haldeman, winner of many awards including HUGO and NEBULA, tells us his travel tale in THE ACCIDENTAL TIME MACHINE. You can not go wrong with Haldeman or this novel. It is a fun tale about accidently jumping to the future, and farther and farther into the future. I thoroughly enjoyed this simple tale, not technical, just fun. Highly Recommended.             Accidental Slave8 reviews Claire Thompson BookSurge Publishing, 2009 Hot Romantic Exploration of BDSM Accidental Slave is a wonderful examination of a romantic BDSM relationship. Elizabeth and Cole are both well developed characters and the chemistry between them is immediate. The best part about this book is that it is truly an exploration of BDSM as Elizabeth is brand new and has no experience whatsoever. She is thrust into the world by a jealous co-worker and ends up a part of a lifestyle that ...             Act Like a Gentleman, Think Like a Woman: A Woman's Response to Steve Harvey's Act Like a Lady, Think Like a ...8 reviews Maria Bustillos Accidental Books, 2009 Information I wish I'd had when I was a hunter-gatherer I bought this book because I'd so much enjoyed Ms Bustillos' Dorkismo and was confident it would entertain AND give me food for thought. I was right, but this time, with her tongue popping in and out of her cheek, she focuses on the female psyche (and the fact that so many men have no idea how it works). So we get the inside track on seduction techniques that are more likely to succeed than the ...             The Accidental Mind: How Brain Evolution Has Given Us Love, Memory, Dreams, and God35 reviews David J. Linden Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2008 Fantastic look into the wonder and imperfections of your brain! This book was quite an eye opener looking into the evolution of the brain. I found it fascinating and highly enlightening. Some of the initial explanations of brain functions as far as neurons and synapses went into a little too much detail than what was needed to make a point, but it was otherwise a great read! My one little disappointment was the brevity of the information about religion, ...             Sensa Weight-Loss Program: The Accidental Discovery That's Transforming the Way People Lose Weight4 reviews Alan R. Hirsch, Darin Dougherty Hilton Publishing, 2009 GREAT EASY READ I have been trying diet programs for years now and nothing was working! You name it, I tried it. Then my friend told me about this sprinkle diet called Sensa. I laughed. Four months later she's laughing at me for not taking her advice earlier! I have been on Sensa for a little over two months and can't believe I have lost weight. When I heard about DR. Hirsch writing a book to help those on Sensa ...             The Accidental Salesperson: How to Take Control of Your Sales Career and Earn the Respect and Income You ...51 reviews Chris Lytle AMACOM, 2000 Real world sales Almost no one wants to be a "salesperson", but where would we be without them? This is a great book if you are in sales, or if you are even thinking about being in sales. I was trained by Chris Lytle and have had 10 years in sales and it has been great!             The Accidental Millionaire: How to Succeed in Life Without Really Trying6 reviews Gary Fong BenBella Books, 2009 Mr. Fong Is One Very Interesting Person As a wedding photographer, I found Gary's book to be both entertaining and thought provoking. Gary has a unique philosophy about life and success, and his stories are interesting and very funny. His book made me laugh and encouraged me to view my own situation as a photographer a little differently, and even motivated me to take a few more risks. I enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone ...             The Accidental Tourist: A Novel (Ballantine Reader's Circle)84 reviews Anne Tyler Ballantine Books, 2002 Tyler has a gift Anne Tyler has a unique gift. She has the ability to note personal details, slight mannerisms, little eccentricities, embarrassing foibles, personality quirks, and other assorted details that most of us see but rarely acknowledge. Out of these seemingly insignificant tidbits Tyler sews together a plot with very real but imperfect characters---characters we recognize immediately, and some of which ...             The Accidental Cheerleader (Candy Apple)4 reviews Mimi McCoy Scholastic, 2007 Candy Apple Grl Sophie and her best friend,Kylie,are the perfect team.

This series is a pleasure to read if you are looking for something light and easy. The Argeneau men are so scrumptious             Roll Around Heaven: An All-True Accidental Spiritual Adventure12 reviews Jessica Maxwell Atria Books/Beyond Words, 2009 Roll Around Heaven Jessica Maxwell is a wonderful writer! She reminds me of Bill Bryson - I love their sense of adventure and humor. Maxwell's spiritual experiences are quite stunning and not always easy to follow, but they seem very genuine, especially in view of her ever present skepticism.             The Accidental Werewolf (Accidental Friends, Book 1)37 reviews Dakota Cassidy Berkley Trade, 2008 Better then I expected In the very beginning I felt a smidgen of boredom waiting for something to happen. Most of all I couldn't wait for the color wheel of fury between Marty and Nina to end and I welcomed the comical way it finally did. After that I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found myself sadly enough relating the the attitudes of both Nina and Marty (after she was bitten) and the cursing wasn't over the ...              search for books abercrombie, accidental, adventure, all-true, anguished, anthology, argeneau, assaults, ballantine, beekeeper, betrayal, billionaires, cheerleader, discovery, evolution, facebook, fatherhood, fighting, gentleman, guerrilla, hedonist, honeybee, language, millionaire, response, salesperson, spiritual, transforming, weight-loss, werewolf books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
