Do right by your kids...get this book

Getting Out: Your Guide to Leaving America (Process Self-reliance Series)

Mark Ehrman

Process, 2006

All the info.
I spent a couple of weeks just skipping through different parts of this book, and I don't regret it. It's like cruising through a buffet of food that you really like. Then I sat down and read it cover to cover. I learned a lot, I appreciated the many web resources that ...

Leaving Church: A Memoir of Faith

Barbara Brown Taylor

Leaving the Saints: How I Lost the Mormons and Found My Faith

Martha Beck

Three Rivers Press, 2006

Fantastic book
I honestly have nothing to say about whatever supposed "anti-Mormon" slant the book has. I knew all the back-story stuff about Mormonism when I started reading the book; that wasn't what interested me. I had no idea who Martha Beck's father was or that he was some ...

Leaving Him Behind: Cutting the Cord and Breaking Free After the Marriage Ends

Sandra S. Kahn

Ballantine Books, 1992

I needed this one
I needed this book. I will probably refer to it often. There is no life after divorce if you don't move on. This book contained many eye-openers for me. Hopefully after reading this I won't sabotage my own happiness by staying attached to a man who is unable to ...

LEAVING CHEYENNE : A Novel

Larry McMurtry

Simon & Schuster, 2002

Larry's Best?
Larry McMurtry may rank among the world's more inconsistent novelists. It's hard to imagine a book less interesting than "Texasville." "Lonesome Dove," while a fine epic read, will never be seriously confused with great literature. But "Leaving Cheyenne," modest and ...

Yang Erche Namu, Christine Mathieu

Back Bay Books, 2004

Planetary Vol. 3: Leaving the 20th Century

Warren Ellis

Wildstorm, 2005

Graphic SF Reader
Ellis has a complex, sophisticated and highly entertaining Wold Newton type take on comics literature. Using his own characters, of course, but this is just all around fabulous. The story takes a turn, as Snow gets more aggressive about taking the fight to The Four. ...
