The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate
Gary Chapman

Northfield Publishing, 1995

The Esperanto of love!
If this wonderful book has taught me anything, it's that Klingon is not one of the five "love languages."
  
  











  



  
Where the Wild Things Are
Maurice Sendak

Harper Collins, 1988

Imaginative and Amazing Illustrations
The illustrations in this book really caught my eye. My favorite one was when all the wild things were howling at the moon. I enjoyed how the text stretches over a few pages and keeps the reader interested.
  
  











  



  
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel (Oprah Book Club #62)
David Wroblewski

Ecco, 2008

Hamlet Revisited
There is a section of this story where Edgar is traveling, and traveling with his dogs. It just seems to go on forever. It is however one of those books that you don't want to put down. Once I realized the Hamlet theme was in play, I really did not want to get to ...

Against Medical Advice: One Family's Struggle with an Agonizing Medical Mystery
James Patterson, Hal Friedman, ...

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

A fascinating story...
I'm a huge fan of James Patterson. I think I've read every book he's ever written, including the ones for teens (the Maximum Ride series and The Dangerous Days of Daniel X). I especially like his Women's Murder Club series. He's a great writer when it comes to fiction. ...

What to Expect the First Year
Heidi Murkoff

Workman Publishing Company, 2008

While the American Academy of Pediatrics book is good, this one is more user friendly. It's divided by age, you can skim what you need without having to read the whole thing in one go.
  
  











  



  
How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk
Adele Faber, Elaine Mazlish

Collins Living, 1999

for desperate moms
This is by far the best parenting books I have read. It offers many insights and ready-to-use techniques. It's not like many parenting books with big concepts, which we all know but don't know how to apply. It is full of vivid daily examples with specific ideas to ...
