Fascinating...because it's all too true.
Little White Lies, Deep Dark Secrets is a nonjudgmental research project about a topic that's all too familiar to all of us. Barash's interviewees vary in ages and social classes, and may live miles from one another, but each has found a reason to lie to a family member, friend or work colleague. I found this fascinating because it's all too true and because women do it to save face and to ...

This book is higly insightful and interesting to those of us who have been in long-term relationships. If you are interested in this sort ...

An Amazing Story--An Incredible Read
I was given this book for Christmas--not knowing anything about the contents or author. And what a terrific gift it turned out to be! I was "hooked" on the first page----and hated to put it down until I was finished. It truly is a page-turner and holds your interest from beginning to end. There are so few books like that----but this is truly one of the best. It's the story of a woman's search for ...
