Hyper-chondriac: One Man's Quest to Hurry Up and Calm Down61 reviews
Brian Frazer
Atria, 2007
Much more than a memoir
Brian Frazer's whiplash, ascerbic humor has caused me to laugh out loud during and after I had finished his book. He has a unique way of bringing the reader with him to live through moments at once wickedly funny and painfully candid. But this is more than a memoir. I think Frazer is giving us a roadmap to cope with our currant culture of sensory overload and nano attention spans--a guide to help ...

Soul Communication: Opening Your Spiritual Channels for Success and Fulfillment79 reviews
Zhi Gang Sha
Atria, 2008
Einstein would have loved this book
Soul Communication by Zhi Gang Sha is a contradiction and an enigma. Based on one simple teaching - that everything has a soul and that all soul seeks to serve - it explains a core reality that Einstein was seeking to formulate, but does so in terms so simple that even a child can understand. Moreover, though completely unique, this book is eminently practical. A hundred years from now, when the ...

Mabel Iam
Atria, 2005
This book has the power to change your love life.
This book is for the sexually adventurous, lovers, couples and spiritual people who are willing to try all kinds of new things to improve their sex lives as well as their lives as a whole. This is a book about eroticism and how to become a perfect lover on the purest level.
I think a romantic vacation getaway should be planned and this book will be coming along; a second honeymoon to help us ...

The Living Blood91 reviews
Tananarive Due
Atria, 2001
Great Read
I found this book less engaging but more fullfilling than My Soul To Keep.
The Living Blood gave a few characters a chance to redeem themselves in what was a dire situation from the first book.

Portraits of Guilt88 reviews
Jeanne Boylan
Atria, 2000
Excellent book about trauma and memory
I've read a lot of good books about healing from trauma and the effects trauma has upon memory. I've also read a lot of books about the fallibility of memory that do not correctly take into account the actual experience of the trauma. Jeanne Boylan has succeeded in writing the first book that accurately addresses both sides of the understanding of memory. She clearly illustrates the way that ...

Tears of Rage - From Grieving Father to Crusader for Justice: The Untold Story of the Adam Walsh Case78 reviews
John Walsh
Atria, 1997
I MAXIMIZE my respect for John Walsh
Tears of Rage is such a brilliant book. It is very touching, tragic, and even insightful. Not only did I truly enjoy it, but also I found it hard to put down. Such hard times for this fellow after the sadistic murder of his lovely child Adam. Yet he does not give up and he battles and battles for justice for Adam. It was not easy and the police unit were not very helpful and competent with ...

Strong on Defense35 reviews
Sanford Strong
Atria, 1997
Excellent
This is absolutely one of the best books on self defense that I have ever read.
Sanford Strong has written an excellent primer on personal protection. As he says, this book is not about crime prevention; it is about crime survival.
Much of the book has to do with the right mindset which is a critical element in surviving. Many people are seriously hurt or killed because of lack of mental ...

Dan Mathews
Atria, 2008
Inspiring and fascinating read
This book was so much more than I expected! I was interested to learn more about the life of a PETA insider, with this book I got that but also so much more; reads like a really fun and wild novel. Dan Mathews tells the fascinating story of his life with laugh out loud humor and eye popping detail. Makes me want to go out for drinks with him and learn more. Definely recommended for anyone ...

Gayle Lynds
Atria, 1998
Nobody Does it Better than Gayle Lynds
MOSAIC is a fast written, well plotted international thriller that will have you burning the midnight oil as you zip through all of the twists and turns in Ms. Lynds fine book. It's also a woman in peril story, a kind of romance and a bit of a mystery. Ms. Lynds has packed a lot of craft into MOSAIC, but that's not surprising, she's one heck of a writer and one heck of a character painter.

Ellen Erwin, Jessica Z. Diamond
Atria, 2006
A must-have for Audrey Fans
This is a wonderful collector's item for Audrey Hepburn fans. I opened the box, and, after looking through the pages, had no other words but "wow". There are 34 removable items of memorabilia. These include a partial script from Breakfast at Tiffany's, many letters to and from Ms. Hepburn herself, postcards, pictures, photo albums, tickets of movies and programs of plays she's done, and many many ...

Natural Hormone Balance For Women: Look Younger, Feel Stronger, and Live Life with Exuberance47 reviews
Uzzi Reiss M.D./OB-GYN, Martin Zucker
Atria, 2001
an excellent resource book about hormones
This book was recommended by my longevity physician, and I can understand why. It is a great guide to anyone using or considering natural hormone replacement therapy (which is a gift from God and Nature by the way...) This publication is not just about menopause, it is about female (and male) hormones across the lifespan. It helps you to self regulate by learning your own symptoms. And at these ...

Sean Hepburn Ferrer
Atria, 2003
Audrey!
I love everything about this book. I like the photos. I like the interesting story. And how Mr. Sean Hepburn Ferrer includes a reproduction of Audrey's birth certificate. Obviously, this is a
well-documented book. Authentic and sincere. I wish Mr. Ferrer had chosen a more stunning photo for the cover. The cover is kind of blurry and not very focussed I love black and white photos Colored ...

John Walsh
Atria, 1998
Solid Story Lines - Interesting Reading
I grew up in Westfield, New Jersey where John List murdered his family. I remember clearly how these murders created fear in our town. He hid from authorities for nearly 20-years before America's Most Wanted aired a profile that led to his capture. This is just one of the stories in this book that would get 10-stars if ...(this website) gave out that many. John Walsh deserves a lot of credit ...
