Do you know what your talents are?
Excellent book. Loved taking the assessment and discovering my top 5 "talent themes". I will definitely look further into strength-based psychology.

Back Bay Books, 2001

The Greatest Story of the 20th Century
The Catcher In The Rye is not just a story about your frustrated teenager who doesn't like anything, as his little sister Phoebe points out in the book. It's a story about the person that reflects the emotions given to us by the world. Here's a 17 year old who just got kicked out of high school straight into the streets of New York City. He doesn't seem mad about being kicked out of school, not ...

Chelsea Handler

Grand Central Publishing, 2010

Hysterical!
Ahhh, there is nothing better than a good hearty laugh at someone else's expense. I have read all Chelsea's books. They always make me laugh out loud, spit, choke and sometimes pee myself. This book was no different. I love taking a break from the real world and escaping into her funny little disfunctional universe. Keep em coming Chelsea!!!

The Girl Who Played with Fire (Vintage)

Stieg Larsson

Vintage, 2010

Awesome book. Loved it even better than The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
This is a great book. I recommend reading the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo first. You should also be ready to read the Girl who kicked the Hornets Nest, because Fire ends with a bit of a cliff hanger.

Presidio Press, 2007

E.B. Sledge is a God amoung mere mortals!
How anybody survived the conflicts and still keep their humanity is past my understanding. Sledgehammer tells the story with out holding any detail back, this is not a book for the weak of heart.

Algonquin Books, 2010

A delicious novel
I could not put this one down. Luscious prose, masterfully-wrought suspense, deftly avoids cliche and "easy" conclusions. Highly recommended.

Excellent Little Resource
this is a cute little book full of helpful info and recipes. While it's not comprehensive, it gives great recipes and even lets you know which ones are suitable for freezing. I got this and "Blender Baby Foods" and feel prepared to feed my little one when he arrives. Nice shower gift for moms who are looking to do homemade baby food.

Stieg Larsson

Vintage, 2009

unbelievable and totally lives up to the hype
I realize different strokes for diff. folks and all that but I cannot imagine not loving the whole girl...collection - from the 1st page I was hooked - I am in the middle of the second novel - the girl who played with fire and am very saddened that there will only be three in this series - I don't go for hype - harry potter - blah, I usually go for the most unpopular books - but this one I read ...

Opened Up My Mind.
What a beautiful book!!! Really loved it! Andre was so honest. He opened up his life for us, making me realize that even the greatest have faults. It helps me go on in my own life, with everyday problems and challenges. Just a beautiful story by a very loving person!!! Even though I am not much into the tennis world, my son told me it was the best biography he has ever read....so I read it. I ...

Succubus On Top

Kensington Publishing Corp, 2008

What's a girl gotta do to get some life-force!
(AUDIOBOOK) Rachelle Mead's Georgina is sexy, sensual, and funny! I found myself laughing out-loud several times while listening to this book. Elizabeth Rogers, the reader, does an amazing job with the characters, particularly the sexy bits. Although this particular installment meanders a tiny bit in the middle, it resolves in a scintillating way that left me wanting more. (I really loved ...

Wiley, 2010

It's SUCH good stuff!
I should preface this review by saying that we live close to the Good Stuff Eatery. Too close. Close enough that on the day this book arrived, my husband and I thumbed through it.. then went to Good Stuff. We've eaten there several times, and it's our #1 place to take out of towners, co-workers, friends and strangers off the street to. All the things that I would want to know how to make are ...

Bantam, 2006

body language is sooo interesting
I really enjoyed reading it, it is very fresh and clarifying, I really recommend it, you will read people's body language and will be able to guess and understand other person's behaviour without talking much. It is really good to read if you work with people every day.
