I loved this book. I have to say I was skeptical at first, as I felt the author was talking down to the reader, however, I was being over sensitive. As the mother of an adhd child, often a person gets over sensitive to percieved criticism when none is really there. ...

One of the best books on NLP that includes A LOT of useful exercises.
This book is great in that it not only explains some of the basics of NLP but it also includes 43 different exercises to do while you are reading the book. Most of these exercises can be done quickly and have been, for me, generally quite effective. These exercises are ...

John Grogan
Harper Paperbacks, 2008
I loved this book!
I bought this book for my sister's birthday. I had checked this book out of the library and loved it. I knew she would too. The one I ordered for her had more pictures and more information. I may just have to get one to keep for myself.

Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal
Christopher Moore
Harper Paperbacks, 2003
Lamb
Entertaining, provocative, fun to read. The story of Christ told in a very different and amusing fashion, still escaping sacrilege.
Have given several as gifts to friends who have also thoroughly enjoyed the book!

How to Read Literature Like a Professor: A Lively and Entertaining Guide to Reading Between the Lines
Thomas C. Foster
Harper Paperbacks, 2003
It may ruin literature for you unless you can both appreciate your opinion and the authors.
Most people I encounter, after reading this book, complain that it is pushing a single opinion about the meaning of a story. That's not the case. While it does convey the language that people use to communicate, since that is what literature is supposed to do, it ...
