On My Own Two Feet: A Modern Girl's Guide to Personal Finance 49 reviews
Manisha Thakor, Sharon Kedar
Adams Business, 2007
Life Changing...
I really didn't have any expectations when I read this book. I expected a boring book about finances, which I would probably only read half of-- and with stuff I could not understand.
Boy, was I wrong.
This book changed my life-- for the better! I owe this book everything... it explained to me what my PARENTS couldn't explain... and that's because no one ever told them!
I FINALLY ...

Under the Feet of Jesus 16 reviews
Helena Maria Viramontes
Plume, 1996
A haunting book
I can't recommend this book enough. The thing is that the reader doesn't get the picture until the story is finished. Then it all seems to come together in a powerful way. Viramontes does exactly what I have always been taught is the best way to write. She shows and she doesn't tell. Sometimes when reading the story, you are reaching to understand how a particular part fits. That is part of ...

Bound Feet & Western Dress: A Memoir33 reviews
Pang-Mei Chang
Anchor, 1997
Top-Hats, Half-Moons, and the Painful Glint of Changes
Change can be a frightening affair, and looking back at change can be something that seems almost alien when beheld in the light of certain convictions. That seems to encapsulate the whole of the experience that Chang Yu-I talks about as she tries to explain something of who she is to her granddaughter, Pang-Mei, and it is one of the things that seemed to haunt me as a reader as I listened to ...

Turtle Feet5 reviews
Nikolai Grozni
Riverhead Hardcover, 2008
Spiritual and scandalous too....
I finished Turtle Feet last night before bed, and I dreamt all night about one of the characters--the eccentric, ribald, rebellious and loveable alcoholic womanizing Bosnian ex-monk called Tsar. I never expected that this book would make me laugh so hard and dream so vividly. I chose the book because I was curious to know what could make a handsome, gifted young man with so much musical ...

Feet of Clay (Discworld)99 reviews
Terry Pratchett
Corgi, 2005
Terry Pratchett is Thomas Pynchon
Has anyone else noticed this? Thomas Pynchon and Terry Pratchett are the same guy! Their concerns are the same, their love of humanity, their understanding of the need for hope and compassion; their delicious word-play is the same. It's the same guy!
Pynchon took 11 years to write his masterpiece, "Against the Day." Why? Because he was ALSO writing a Discworld novel every year. Pynchon ...

Feet Are Not for Kicking5 reviews
Elizabeth Verdick
Free Spirit Publishing, 2004
LOVE this book and its simple, effective message
We bought this book for our 19-month-old daughter when she hit and bit another child at school. At the time, she used to kick me when I changed her diaper, and her daycare had a copy of this book, so I bought it, along with "Hands Are Not For Hitting" and "Teeth are Not For Biting."
All three books are great. They are very simple, straightforward, with pictures and language toddlers can ...

3Day walker
I'm training for the Breast Cancer 3Day walk -- 60 miles in three days -- and stumbled across this book during an internet search for blister prevention and cures. I got a copy right away. I have never before participated in any endurance sports and needed as much good advice as I could find and believe me, this book delivered. Certainly, there are parts of it that don't apply to my current ...

Think on Your Feet: The Art of Thinking and Speaking Under Pressure (Spectrum Book)6 reviews
Kenneth Wydro
Prentice Hall, 1981
A great find!
I first read this book years ago when I began speaking at a Toastmasters group. At first, it helped me with my impromptu speaking. Later, it helped me to begin making small improvements in my daily actions (the slight edge technique). I was very disappointed it was out of print at the time and I couldn't buy a copy for my own library. Recently, a fellow Toastmaster member found it...and ...

Jesus With Dirty Feet: A Down-To-Earth Look at Christianity for the Curious & Skeptical16 reviews
Don Everts
InterVarsity Press, 1999
Tofu, Warhead Candy, and a Moose.
I recently listened to Don Everts speak at a CHIC, a national Covenant youth conference, and he was wonderful. In a matter of minutes he had compared Jesus to tofu, a warhead candy, and a moose. We treat Jesus like tofu; we eat it because it is good for us and not because we necessarily enjoy or like it. When he was alive he was treated kind of like a warhead candy. People got a slight taste of ...

A Nation under Our Feet: Black Political Struggles in the Rural South from Slavery to the Great Migration3 reviews
Steven Hahn
Belknap Press, 2005
A historical work of major importance
Every now and then one reads that political history has fallen on hard times. And there is some truth to this. Much political history seems awash in a sea of detail, accounts of endless intrigues and bureaucratic machinations whose overall significance is unclear, while regression coefficients run amuck. Surely, a reader may be tempted to think, Michael Holt's 1296 page history of the Whig ...
