Say Goodbye
Lisa Gardner

Bantam, 2008

Just gets better!
I've enjoyed Lisa Gardner's stories since she began writing, but just when I think she can't get any better, she does. It seems as if her writing has matured, and this one is impossible to put down.
  
  











  



  
Snoop: What Your Stuff Says About You
Sam Gosling

Basic Books, 2008

Good read, though a bit thin
I enjoyed this book; Gosling is a clear thinker and he provides a accessible overview of interesting personality research. I have seen the results of some of his research in the past, and I admire his creativity and productivity. He is a very talented academic ...

Damn, it Feels Good to Be a Banker: And Other Baller Things You Only Get to Say If You Work On Wall Street
Leveraged Sellout

Hyperion, 2008

=IF(1+1=2,DIFGTBAB>BIBLE,0)
I'm still trying to discern what the funniest aspect of this book is. Is it the blatant elitism/classicsm? Perhaps. Is it Wall Street's misogyny and generalizations of foreigners? There's definitely something there. Perhaps its LSO's ability to apply banker-speak and ...
  
  











  



  
Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life
Henry Cloud, John Townsend

Zondervan, 2002

Good book... life changer
I am so happy I bought this book. It has so much information. It is a book that needs study... not just a read. I grew up with alcoholic parents and very codependent relationships. I am glad there is a Christian and biblical based book that speaks to the fact that ...
  
  











  



  
They Say/I Say: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing
Gerald Graff, Cathy Birkenstein

W. W. Norton, 2005

The best endorsement is that my students loved it.
I used "They Say/I Say" with my composition students in the Spring semester of 2008. Frankly, I had some reservations because the department required a fairly expensive handbook, and this would be an add-on. On the plus side, it was brief enough to go over thoroughly ...

The Secret Life of Bees
Sue Monk Kidd

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2003

Bees AIN'T a Bust!
I surveyed my class and 80% gave it two thumbs up: 5 stars. That's 28 out of 35 students. The rest of the class gave it an OK: 3 or 4 stars. So my giving it 5 stars has been backed by research into the general public's taste. ;=) Now, I'm not much for spending time ...

Tom Vanderbilt

Knopf, 2008

Great science, great stories about a common activity
Along with How to Measure Anything: Finding the Value of "Intangibles" in Business and Nudge: Improving Decisions About Health, Wealth, and Happiness and perhaps Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions, Traffic is one of my favorite book ...

there is freedom in setting boundaries!
This is a great book. I encourage anyone who has issues with setting boundaries for themselves or if you find yourself butting heads with other people more often than not, to read this book! It gets a little redundant towards the end of the book but the message is ...

A book for any little dinosaur fan
My three year old has been into dinosaurs for a year and is still going strong. He received this for his third birthday and it quickly became his favorite bedtime story. We always end with a kiss and he roars a goodnight. Lol. I like how the dinosaurs are named in ...
