Pretty good and worth reading
BREAK NO BONES is definately worth reading as it is a good mystery with good characters and lots of action. Temperance Brennan is at it again, finding bones where they shouldn't be and then becoming a player in a pretty complicated plot. Tempe deals with a county sheriff who is not a typical stereotype in that while he needs to convinced before he takes action, he does eventually act upon real ...

Collins Living, 2008

Practical and readable
Just when you think, "Oh no, not another book of advice about losing weight," one like this comes along. I've heard for years about how we all have individual set points, but I never completely understood what that meant--or why it affected weight gain and loss--until I read this book. What's more, "Break Through Your Set Point" is full of practical tips. It provides a program for slow, steady ...
  
  











  



  
When All Hell Breaks Loose33 reviews
Cody Lundin

Gibbs Smith, Publisher, 2007

Just in case
This book is loaded with common sense, not your everyday occurance! The knowledge and actions offered could be life saving if an event occured and society broke down. I recommend this book for your library, read it, put it on the shelf, but keep the lessons close. Remember we are only 72 hours from chaos at any time.
  
  











  



  
It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken: The Smart Girl's Break-Up Buddy128 reviews
Greg Behrendt, Amiira Ruotola-Behrendt

Broadway, 2006

With all the mayo in the world, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken Sh****...
Other than the real encouraging, funny way that Greg and Amiira Behrendt tell these stories, they are all based on just common sense rules. Some might claim that it's not rocket science to know that you shouldn't call your ex, but the truth that when we are broken hearted, we can't even go through life, let alone using common sense. This book would be wonderful for you if you got out of the ...

Break Through: From the Death of Environmentalism to the Politics of Possibility23 reviews
Michael Shellenberger; Ted Nordhaus

Houghton Mifflin Co, 2007

A New Conversation
Superb! The gloom and doom and endless discussions of how we have wrecked the planet are pointless and depressing. Ted Nordhaus and Michael Shellenberger make the case for a complete shift in consciousness and conversation around global warming, environmentalism and politics. A hopeful, aspiring and truly human approach to today's challenges.
  
  











  



  
How to Break Your Addiction to a Person45 reviews
Howard Halpern

Bantam, 2003

Read this book
I've been miserable over a breakup for four months - not sleeping, eating, obsessing, etc... I read this book over a two day period, and have not been this clear headed since before the breakup "started." If you are someone who is having trouble letting go, especially of an abusive relationship, buy this book today. The ideas in it did more for me in 48 hours than 4 months of friends and family, ...
  
  











  



  
When The Bough Breaks: Forever After the Death of a Son or Daughter21 reviews
Judith R. Bernstein

Andrews McMeel Publishing, 1998

The most helpful book I've read and useful for anyone touched by loss
I purchased this book for my parents when my brother died at the age of 29 in an auto accident. I felt helpless and knew we needed help to face the life ahead that seemed unappealing now. We needed people who would come around and really lend support and look to us for what our needs might be instead of suggesting those quick fixes in short "feel good quips" by extending a genuine offer of ...
  
  











  



  
First, Break All the Rules: What the World's Greatest Managers Do Differently259 reviews
Marcus Buckingham, Curt Coffman

Simon & Schuster, 1999

More Profound than its Title Suggests
You can't take the title seriously (some Amazon reviewers do). The book is about what Gallup has found makes effective managers of people during its research for various clients over 10+ years. The central theme is that everyone has strengths and weaknesses. Nothing new there. What is new, is their research that shows (a) an individual's strengths are real workforce multipliers, (b) effort ...

When the Bough Breaks (Alex Delaware)38 reviews
Jonathan Kellerman

Ballantine Books, 2003

The Beginning
I found this series after reading Stephen White's Alan Gregory series and had seen so many comparisons between the two. I have read the last two books of the Alex Delaware series and liked them well enough to start in the very beginning. While in When the Bough Breaks, the plot dragged a little in the first half of the book, it made up for it after that. Pure evil in the disguise of good, a plot ...
  
  











  



  
A Break with Charity: A Story about the Salem Witch Trials113 reviews
Ann Rinaldi

Gulliver Books Paperbacks, 2003

A favorite from when I was young
I was addicted to historical fiction for young adults when I was growing up, and this was probably my favorite. I read it at least four times more than a decade ago. I recommend it to any young adults who are interested in learning a little bit more about historical topics and the events surrounding them.
  
  











  



  
How to Break Growth Barriers: Capturing Overlooked Opportunities for Church Growth3 reviews
Carl F. George, Warren Bird

Baker Books, 1993

Strong Theology and Biblical Leadership Development
This practical book describes one of the best ways to provide a system of nurture, discipleship and care for church members in the shortest amount of time, and with the greatest number of resources. As described by George, "Shepherds" care individually for the flock, and those type of leaders are spread too thin and burn out quickly. Instead, George suggests becoming "Ranchers" who delegate and ...

In the Break is an extended riff on "The Burton Greene Affair," exploring the tangled relationship between black avant-garde in music and literature in the 1950s and 1960s, the emergence of a ...

There are now five attorneys involved (2 custody, 2 financial, & a discovery referee) and four accountants.

Break, Blow, Burn: Camille Paglia Reads Forty-three of the World's Best Poems36 reviews
Camille Paglia

Vintage, 2006

Her fresh writing, + 43 (mostly) great poems = success
This book is a real refreshment -- a shower of [mostly; I could have done without "Woodstock"] great poems, with just enough stirring, insightful commentary to draw the reader deep into the pool of each poem's meanings and pleasures. The format is very successful, with each typographically well-presented poem followed by three to five pages of thoughtful, extremely well written critique and ...
