The Time Traveler's Wife
Audrey Niffenegger

Harvest Books, 2004

One of my favorites.
This is the type of book that makes images of cold windy days, the color of fall leaves, and big cups of coffee pop into your brain. It's just beautiful. It's hard to put into words how lovely it truly is. I actually couldn't really process it once I finished, ...
  
  











  



  
Indignation
Philip Roth

Houghton Mifflin, 2008

Thinking with Type: A Critical Guide for Designers, Writers, Edit & Students (Design Briefs)
Ellen Lupton

Princeton Architectural Press, 2004

A solid book for type - with a twinge of humor
I like this book a great deal. The next time I have a chance to use this in a class (to teach) I will. There are lots of good examples, the language is clear, and it's not too ethereal or esoteric. I think it's a great introduction to typography and laid out very well.

John T. Hansen

Saunders, 2006

Flashcard netter review
They're good for studying; for our anatomy lab, however, looking at the Rohen flashcards are better, because they're pictures of actual human cadavers. These cards are clear and easy to understand.

Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson
Mitch Albom

Broadway, 2002

A heartfelt reminder of the important things in life.
After reading so many spectacular reviews, I decided to give this book a whirl myself, and I'm so thankful I did. First of all, I hate to read. Well, let me rephrase that. I USED to hate to read. Doing so much reading in college leaves me with little energy outside of ...

My go-to book for Spanish definitions and translation
