Of course it's self-absorbed, it's a memoir! Who is she supposed to write about? I read this during my own divorce and there were times when I wanted to smack all my friends in the face and lock myself in my room and read this book. I found it funny, insightful (of course there's insecurity and self-doubt in a divorce, ...             The Straight Girl's Guide to Sleeping with Chicks21 reviews Jen Sincero Fireside, 2005 Pleasure Manual Women can learn about their own pleasure with this sex manual.

Hall McGraw-Hill, 1998 Be proactive in your child's education! I am a teacher of children with mild to moderate specific learning disabilities who went through the teacher education program at Ashland University in Ohio.

I bought this book at a symposium given ...             Thinking Straight7 reviews Robin Reardon Kensington, 2008 An excellent book! Couldn't put it down! Robin Reardon has written an extraordinary second book. I read her first book, A Secret Edge, and found that one to be excellent. Thinking Straight is even better.

Esposito Oxford University Press, USA, 2004 Islam: Fact or Fiction Esposito does a fine job of relating Islam to the lay person.
