Never Say Diet: Make Five Decisions and Break the Fat Habit for Good19 reviews
Chantel Hobbs
WaterBrook Press, 2007
Must read if you are serious about losing weight!
This was a very good book. Chantel does a great job getting the message across in a very simple yet powerful way. I love the fact that she is not another "guru" out there pretending that if you just had more will power you could lose the weight. She is a real person with very real struggles that all of us can relate to. She really helps you "get it". You can finally make the necessary changes to ...

The Breakaway Cook: Recipes That Break Away from the Ordinary23 reviews
Eric Gower
William Morrow Cookbooks, 2007
Definitely a "must have" cookbook
I buy cookbooks as a hobby but this is one of the very few cookbooks that I have actually used more than a few times. The first recipe I tried was "Minty, Meaty Wontons". Sounds exotic and difficult, but it was actually easy to prepare and incredibly tasty. Then I went on to try "Minty, Boozy Chicken" and "Pizzettas". All were a hit with my family and friends. Eric's recipes are original, ...

Extreme Breakup Recovery21 reviews
Jeanette Castelli
Urbantex Publishing, 2004
Shortcut to moving on and leaving the pain behind
Jeanette Castelli self-help book cuts through the long term recovery from breakups and gives the straight bottomline steps to get on with your life.
This is not a quick fix book nor a thesis in human behavior, it is just the right dosage of reality check and inner work. Extreme Breakup Recovery is a shortcut that works when it comes to getting over pain and moving on after breaking up.

When the Bough Breaks: Forever After the Death of a Son or Daughter21 reviews
Judith R., Ph.D. Bernstein
Andrews Mcmeel Pub, 1997
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 ...

The Transparency Edge: How Credibility Can Make or Break You in Business22 reviews
Barbara Pagano, Elizabeth Pagano, ...
McGraw-Hill, 2003
Finally - Permission to be lead from the heart!
As someone who has inhabited a pretty competitive corner of corporate America for over 20 years, I can honestly say this book was like a lifeline. With the huge generation of baby boomers all entering the business scene at the same time, I think a lot of us have felt tremendous pressure to conform to what seemed some pretty harsh norms. Being professional and getting ahead was all about being ...

The Da Vinci Method - Break Out & Express Your Fire24 reviews
Garret LoPorto
Media for Your Mind, Inc., 2005
Wish I had another star to add to my review
I picked this up to see if I could draw a bead on some aspects of my bipolar disorder. When I bought it, I already had learned steps to control my illness and it had mostly vanished. I had been devastatingly sick for 8 years and increasingly well for about 2 when I found this book. I was not satisfied that I'd looked under every rock for info to heal myself fully. This book turned out to be a ...

A Journey to Hell and Back32 reviews
Charlotte Russell Johnson
Reaching Beyond the Breaks, 2002
An emotional and inspiring autobiography....
I have read "A Journey To Hell And Back" by Charlotte Russell-Johnson, and found it to be a most inspiring book, and very relevant to many young women of today, who are in need of the kind of guidance and insight offered by this book. I have also had the pleasure of meeting Charlotte Russell Johnson, and from my two encounters with her, I believe her to be as genuine as her personal testimony. ...

Web of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System -- The Sleight of Hand That Has Trapped Us in Debt and ...41 reviews
Ellen Hodgson Brown
Third Millennium Press, 2007
The most important book of our time!
Ellen Hodgson Brown has proven herself an absolute genius! I specialized in foreign languages in university, but economics was one language I really had no interest in, until recently, when I was awakened to the mass corruption governing our world and ultimately our lives. This book explains clearly and in an easy-to-understand manner WHO controls our money supply, who and what forces are and ...

The Lottie Project20 reviews
Jacqueline Wilson
Chivers Audio Books, 1998
A Wonderful Favorite!
This is definitely one of my favorite books. I guess sixth graders will enjoy it most, but parents will also enjoy it too. Jacqueline Wilson really knows how to get into the world of 11-year-olds. Charlie Enright has a lot of problems at school. Her new teacher is strict and mean. She assigns the sixth-graders a Victorian project right at the beginning of the year. Also, she makes Charlie sit ...

Nate the Great (Break-Of-Day Book)17 reviews
Marjorie Weinman Sharmat
Coward McCann, 1992
Wonderfully Funny!
I never did read any Nate the Great growing up...and what a shame. It's amazing that Sharmat can do so very much in terms of story and humor with so few words. It's great for beginner readers and uproariously funny as a read aloud story (especially if you can do the P.I. voice-over effect). This initial installment (I believe there are over 20 in this series) finds Nate the Great on hire for his ...

Robert H. Schuller
Thomas Nelson, 1999
Insightful Truth
In choosing to respond appropriately to suffering you ensure that the experience leads to something beneficial. Free will is involved in that decision. Dr. Schuller writes, "I promise you that there is gain in every pain." Our reaction to pain is crucial! That choice determines whether we will expeience the benefits associated with the suffering process. Hurts do not endure permanently. Pain ...

A Friend in the Business: Honest Advice for Anyone Trying to Break into Television Writing12 reviews
Robert Masello
Perigee Trade, 2000
Great Read
I work in a college career services office & bought this book for our resource center. It arrived last week and has not yet made it onto the shelf--because I can't put it down! Many career books are dry "how to" manuals which may have valuable information, but lose the readers' interest before it can be imparted. Not this book. Mr. Masello's engaging, witty writing keeps the reader riveted. ...

Pure Desire: Helping People Break Free from Sexual Struggles19 reviews
Ted Roberts
Gospel Light Publications, 1999
Compassionate, passionate, humorous, on-target
Ted's personal experiences both in his struggle with sex addiction and in his career as a pilot provide a compelling unity to this book. He has a passion for helping the many people who struggle with this problem, but who are not receiving the help where they should be receiving it -- from their churches, who have the truth of the Bible, but often don't focus it in this area.
The book has a ...

Hardball: A Season in the Projects12 reviews
Daniel Coyle
G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1994
Worth the search
This book is such a great find. Unlike the movie, this is the non-fiction account of a group of volunteer's attempts to organize a little league team in Chigago's Cabrini Green project, possibly the most infamous in the country. Don't expect any Keanu Reeves ex-gambler coaches to show up. Do expect great candor from the kids and an unmistakable affection from the author (who never appears in the ...

Hollywood Drive: What it Takes to Break in, Hang in & Make it in the Entertainment Industry16 reviews
Eve Light Honthaner
Focal Press, 2005
Film School in a Book
I attended author Eve Honthaner's class at USC in 2004. Titled "Breaking In, Hanging In and Making It," the class gave me all the skills and tools necessary to make it into the film industry in Hollywood. Her encouragement and burning desire to help people succeed in following their dreams translates well from the classroom to the page. For those who don't have 6 weeks and $2,000 to spend on ...

Dawn Daniels, Candace Sandy
Kensington, 2000
One of the best books I've ever read
I'm a 21 year old African American woman and I picked up this book at my campus bookstore. I started reading it and could not put it down. I had been looking for something that I could relate to and this was exactly the book. It took me through a range of emotions and eventually brought me to a better place. It was like I had lots of aunts, cousins, grandmas, and moms giving me advice. I'm buying ...

24-Carat Commercials for Kids: Everything Kids Need to Know to Break into Commercials (Hollywood 101)13 reviews
Chambers Stevens
Sandcastle Publishing, 1999
A Definite Recommend
I bought this for my son, as well as the scene book for kids, and he hasn't put them down! They're a really good resource for kids who are interested in acting. I've also noticed that his memorization skills have improved since I got him these books. If you have a child interested in acting, I highly recommend both books.

The Flip Side: Break Free of the Behaviors That Hold You Back14 reviews
Flip Flippen
Hachette Audio, 2007
Practical and actionable... recommended read.
Talking about capitalizing on a name... :) The Flip Side: Break Free of the Behaviors That Hold You Back by Flip Flippen. This was a book I picked up on in one of the personal productivity blogs I follow, and it is one of the most practical, easy-to-understand books on personal change that I've read recently. Even better, he goes into how *you* can react and respond more effectively to each ...
