Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict

A thoroughly enjoyable read
I am not an expert on Jane Austen - have read a few and seen a few of the movies. But, as far as books go, this one is fun. The "Freaky Friday" transfer of a woman back in time to that era with all the details of the smells, hygiene arrangements, manners, etc. is well written and entertaining. Would be a great book to give any woman who likes to read; perhaps not all males would find it ...

user friendly
This book was excellent: highly educational. The program seems user friendly, achievable and long-term. Part of the program includes avoiding white bread and rice later on, however, depending on your personal needs, it may not be totally necessary. (don't think I could give up french bread for the rest of my days).

Must Read
This is a very helpful book for any person with an addict in the family. This book confirmed many of the same things I am going through with my son who is addicted to painkillers and heroin. In addition to helping me cope and help me understand my son's own addiction, it has revealed to me the importance of getting myself well. Addiction effects the entire family in a very damaging and far ...

The Cramer You Never Knew
This is a great book. I've watched Jim Cramer on television, but never knew the whole story. From his days working as a reporter, to his time at Harvard Law School, on to Goldman Sachs, and eventually his own hedge fund. This is an up close and personal look at one of America's favorite money men. I highly recommend this book.

Health and Success Thru Planning
When I first tried this "diet" I was feeling very sick--obese and lethargic and completely down; I felt like this was my last chance. After THREE DAYS on this plan, I felt 100% better. I didn't have the swelling in my feet and legs; I didn't have the bloating I had been experiencing. The first week I lost 10 lbs; the second week I lost 5 lbs; the third week, another 5 lbs. After that, I ...

Results Beyond Expectation!!!
this diet totally delivered in terms of results! even when my initial weight loss slowed i was still losing fat at an incredibly fast rate! let me give you a run down of how this diet helped me and what type of journey i've been through. when i was in high school (5 years ago) i was very involved in wrestling. i maintained weight all year, which was around 150lbs, so i wouldn't have to cut ...

Different from the first book, every bit as good!
I was puzzled by the disparity of reviews here and, after reading Secrets of a Shoe Addict, I think maybe for some people it depends which book they read first. True, this book has little to do with shoes. I think the point is that one of teh shoe addicts from the last book is revealing her "secrets" to help a new group of women. So if you're looking for a big shoe book, this might not fit the ...

Insightful, honest, beautiful
Peach Friedman tells her inspiring story in a realistic way while avoiding the mistakes that so many others make when recounting the story of their eating disorder. She is not at all self-pitying and does nothing to glorify her eating disorder or tout her "accomplishments." I appreciate this. I appreciate this because in the past this sort of subtle (and often unintentional) tone used by authors ...

This book will answer so many questions parent have!
Kathleen DesMaisons first book, Potatoes Not Prozac, changed my life. I went from a completely depressed person well on my way to taking anti-depressants, to a happy, confident person who loves life--all because I changed the way I ate! Since healing my own body and mind I have changed my children's diets with miraculous results. Before Kathleen's program my kids would whine, scream, hit, be ...

Great book, high price
This is a great book for a sex addict. This is SAA's answer to the AA Big Book, and it is very well done. However, the current edition can be purchased for a fraction of the price on the SAA website ($14).

Whitetail Addicts
I enjoy studying the biology of deer and hunting them; I am a farmer, forester, and educator. I have quite a few books on deer in my collection and I would rank this one right up there in the top 10%. The man who wrote it obviously has a lot of experience with deer, and interweaves hunting knowledge with biology. It is a good book to read and then come back to. I might add that other deer ...

A daily guide for living!
Simple messages for people who like to complicate life. I've lost track of how many times, the daily meditation has been exactly what I need to hear. I read it every morning, and every night, it really helps me deal with "stinking thinking". Highly Recommended for all addicts.

I love this handy and compact carb counter! There are more than 4,000 food comparisons in this book that are in two user-friendly formats: alphabetical, and hi-low comparison charts. What's also great is that this book provides carb counts for eating out--including chain restaurants like Taco Bell, McDonald's, and Subway. Even carb counts for medications like cough drops and syrup are included! ...

Far more than meets the eye
For me it would have been more difficult to appreciate this book had I not read "Out of the Shadows." I had purchased these books over ten years ago but only read them within the past few months. One of the great values of Carnes approach is his no wholes barred, stratight on approach to addiction and the role that sexual addiction plays. There is nothing wishy-washy in his approach to the ...

I Don't Usually Do Diets
OK...so over the age of 50 I noticed that perhaps I had put on a few pounds. I still run and skate and workout. But I also eat. Many years ago I used the Scarsdale Diet if I needed to lose a few. Today it does nothing. So...I started to try Atkins. I saw the damn thing on the best seller list every week so I figured it had to have some credibility. No way. I was starving by the end of the ...
