Broken Open: How Difficult Times Can Help Us Grow

Villard, 2005
Everyone should read this wonderful book
How I am enjoying this book! Elizabeth Lesser can communicate, so thoroughly, to the heart and soul of our humanity. I can only hope she will grace us with more of her written word. Thank you, Elizabeth. P.S. I love the Wavy Gravy quote!
Izzy & Lenore: Two Dogs, an Unexpected Journey, and Me
Jon Katz
Villard, 2008
Eloquently Truthful
I've read all Jon's books and loved them all. But, this one is my all time favorite. It touched my heart so deeply. Jon portrayed beautifully the connection between dogs and humans. His honesty about not always finding the right words to describe this connection ...
The Idiot Girl and the Flaming Tantrum of Death: Reflections on Revenge, Germophobia, and Laser Hair Removal
Laurie Notaro
Villard, 2008
Notaro in fine form
I always enjoy a good laugh at Notaro's expense. I've read most of her other essay collections and usually find them good for at least an "I can so relate" chuckle, and sometimes even a full-on laugh out loud moment. Flaming Tantrum definitely had some hilarious ...
The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster
Bobby Henderson
Villard, 2006
Wow... Great read
True enlightenment. What makes this book so special? It has indeed been touched by his holy appendage.

American Widow
Alissa Torres
Villard, 2008
THE BEAUTY OF TRUTH
With time inexorably passing by, and amongst the far too many pointless narratives exploiting 9/11 to nobody's gain, here comes Alissa Torres' extraordinary book. The blessing of truth, unmitigated and at times scathing, as it emerges page after page in American Widow, ...
Don't You Forget About Me: A Novel
Jancee Dunn
Villard, 2008
THIS BOOK HITS HOME ENDING IS AWESOME
As a Class of 1989 Alum, I could totally relate to her thinking that high school was the best and worst times of your life. IT"S TRUE.. If you can get through the slow middle she did drag out getting to the reunion so I assumed the reunion was going to be great. It ...

The Seeker's Guide (previously published as The New American Spirituality)
Elizabeth Lesser
Villard, 2000
Loved this book
Nicely written, personal and relevant for anyone "seeking" information on spirituality. It doesn't promise anything but makes a compelling case for meditation. Several tips for meditating are offered throughout the book and a variety of specific meditation practices ...
