Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister: A Novel

Gregory Maguire

Harper Paperbacks, 2000

Love it, Love it, Love it!
This is one of my favorite books! I read Wicked about a year ago and enjoyed it, but found it hard to follow at times (unfortunately, I had to start and stop quite a bit while reading it and after awhile it was hard to remember everything). When I picked up this ...

Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry

Stacy Malkan

New Society Publishers, 2007

Great Book with useful information!
This book was great! It was very interesting. I couldn't put it down. It gives you a great insight into how big cosmetic companies really think.

It's Getting Ugly Out There: The Frauds, Bunglers, Liars, and Losers Who Are Hurting America

Jack Cafferty

Wiley, 2007

Great overview of what's wrong with our gov't. Easy read, important info.
This book somewhat reminds me of the "Idiots guide to..." series, yet nowhere does JC treat you like an idiot. The book is a clear guide to the major issues in our gov't today and points out a number of questions that we all need to ask ourselves the next time we vote. ...

Uglies (Boxed Set): Uglies, Pretties, Specials (Uglies)

Scott Westerfeld

Amazing
Great series. Ignore the "young adult" label and read it. Or better yet, have everyone in the family read it.

If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans

Ann Coulter

Crown Forum, 2007

I loved it ;o)
This was my first Ann Coulter book. Since many people said that it contains many thoughts of her old material, I figured it would be a great book to start with. I also had this wild idea that hearing her voice in the CD version might give it some extra power. Ann had ...

Extras (Uglies)

Scott Westerfeld

Simon Pulse, 2007

Extra Good
Pros: An original, believable concept, great characters. Cons: Ending is a bit of a let down. I was a bit reluctant to read this book, as I thought that Westerfield's last attempt, Specials, was the weakest in the series. Nevertheless, I am a fan of the series ...

Pretties (Uglies Trilogy, Book 2)

Scott Westerfeld

Simon Pulse, 2005

Great book for any age,
I'm more of a person interested in good stories. I love Star Wars, Harry Potter, Narnia, etc...This book and the others that are in the Trilogy fit right into that genra for me. Good read! And, great purchase!

The Ugly American

William J. Lederer, Eugene Burdick

W. W. Norton & Company, 1999

I can't believe every American hasn't read this!
The term "ugly American" gets thrown around a lot, but most people have never read the book. What surprises me is that, with our problems in Iraq and the rest of the world, every military and civilian leader is not quoting the book extensively. It is a blueprint for ...

Great look inside our schools

Specials (Uglies)

Scott Westerfeld

Simon Pulse, 2007

This is an absoloute must-have
I will begin by saying simply: this book took me by surprise, and I mean that in a very good way. The two books before it had been very good, yes, and I was expecting relatively the same quality out of this one. However, after I had finished the first few chapters, I ...

Ben Mezrich

Harper Perennial, 2005

Very interesting book on the industry in Japan.
This was a quick read that gave an inside look into the industry in Asia. I found the book well-written and informative, as well as entertaining. I highly recommend.
