Popping the Question: Real-Life Stories of Marriage Proposals from the Romantic to the Bizarre 6 reviews
Sheree Bykofsky, Laurie Viera
Walker & Company, 1997
inspiring and mindboggling
Amazing, what some people are willing to do in order to get their loved ones to agree to marry them these days. Do I really have to propose on board a sold out plane, on the flight attendant's intercom or rent both horse and armor in order to appear as my future wife's shining knight - in a public park? I guess so. Long gone are the days when a simple bouquet, a nice dinner and a diamond ring ...

Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Published 61 reviews

Alpha, 2003
Tough words for an equally tough business.
It was discouraging to read page after page of the uphill endeavor I was facing - to some degree I didn't believe it'd be that arduous. I came close to giving up the idea of seeing my words in print.
Now that I have one book published and a zillion more twirling around in my head, I know every word in "The Idiot's Guide to Getting Published" was true. It was tough stuff to read for an equally ...

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Getting Published13 reviews
Alpha, 2006
Informative, Great Format, and Very Encouraging
This is not the first book I've ever bought about how to get published but it is by far the best. First of all, don't be thrown off by the title. Complete idiots as well as the rest of us will be pleasantly surprised that the material is explained clearly but in no way "dumbed down." Moreover, the information is presented in bite-sized segments which I found made for easy digestion. Also, I ...

We play often on Saturday night and this has stopped all the fuss and muss over the rules. I am not much of a rule person in my personal life but when you are playing poker 'you gotta' love those rules - especially when they help me win!!!
This book is so easy to follow it is great for beginner and long time players alike.
Thanks for making the rules of the game so simple!!

Sexy City Cocktails: Stylish Drinks & Cool Classics You Can Sip With Attitude2 reviews
Sheree Bykofsky, Megan Buckley
Adams Media, 2003
Funny and informative
I love books with anecdotes in the margins! They make all the recipes that much more appealing. The notes themselves are fun to read, and they make it easy and fun to select a recipe. I also like how the book is organized. I will recommend this book to others.

Secrets the Pros Won't Tell You About Winning at Hold'em Poker: About Winning Hold'em Poker19 reviews
Lou Krieger, Sheree Bykofsky
Lyle Stuart, 2006
Winning Hold'em Poker
If knowing the correct starting hands to play was all it took to play winning poker, we would all be winning players. This book goes into detail on playing your opponents, in spite of and because of the two cards in your starting hand.
The best chapter, in my opinion, is the one titled Minimal Math. It was also the hardest. I had to read it several time. However, at the conclusion I had ...

500 Terrific Ideas for Organizing Everything 9 reviews
Sheree Bykofsky
Galahad Books, 2005
Great
The first 50 or so ideas were great, and I sensed order emerging from the chaos of my home. Sadly if there was some handy hint for remembering where you put your reading glasses it wasn't in the ones I read, so I didn't finish the book.
