Jillian Michaels, Mariska van Aalst

Crown, 2009

Jillian has it Right!
I bought and read Jillian's book because I like her "tell it like it is" attitude and because despite regular exercise and watching my eating the scale wasn't budging. I would say to anyone--give this a try for 1 -2 weeks. I have found that organic vegetables taste so much better and flavorful. No artificial sweeteners. I Use Agave Nectar-its low glycemic. I don't buy everything organic but I ...

one of my bibles
The first edition of this book modified how i run my business and life. I have since integrated automation into every aspect of what i do - from hiring VAs, to incorporating micro-retirements into my life. The expanded version just gave me more perspective and tools to try. I've gifted the expanded version half a dozen times, and i will continue to do so. Just buy it - read it - and try it. ...

Suzanne Somers

Crown, 2009

Truly unique, VALUABLE read
Even if you, like another reviewer, don't believe everything Ms. Somers recounts anecdotally, please keep reading. This book is unlike anything else on the market. It's unlike anything else on health and the "c" word cancer I've ever read. Somers, along wtih the doctors and nutritionists she interviews, provides VALUABLE information about how we can help ourselves get healthy and stay ...

Crown, 2010

Author! Author!
I'd like to start by saying thank you Henrietta for your strength, courage and sacrifice; and thank you Rebecca and Deborah and the entire Lacks family for telling us your heartwarming, heartbreaking, captivating and just plain wonderful story. Reading Rebecca's book was like reading an adventure/comedy/tragedy novel all rolled into one -- with one exception: it was a true story! Oh how I never ...

You Say More Than You Think: Use the New Body Language to Get What You Want!, the 7-day Plan

Janine Driver, Mariska van Aalst

Crown, 2010

An incredible book and an incredible program.
When I worked with Janine as a member of the Body Language Power Team (that's me on page 201), I was amazed at the audacious goal of putting the incredble program into a book. I thought, for sure, that some of the meat of the program would have to be left out. Then I read the book. Not only did Janine manage to fit every ounce of information into the book in a fun and easy-to-read way, she ...

The Death of American Virtue: Clinton vs. Starr

Crown, 2010

Pricing complaints are not book reviews!
I've not finished this book yet, and bought it because of fine reviews I read elsewhere. It's good thing I took the time to read all the Amazon reviews; otherwise I wouldn't have known that the bad reviews were due to Kindle pricing, not book content. Why does Amazon allow this? Pricing complaints should be lodged elsewhere.

You Couldn't Ignore Me If You Tried: The Brat Pack, John Hughes, and Their Impact on a Generation
Susannah Gora

Crown, 2010

You can quote lines from Sixteen Candles (?Last night at the dancemy little brother paid a buck to see your underwear?), your iPod playlist includes more than one song by the Psychedelic Furs and Simple Minds, you watch The Breakfast Club every time it comes on cable, and you still wish that Andie had ended up with Duckie in Pretty in Pink . You?re a bonafide Brat Pack devotee?and you?re not alone. The films of the Brat Pack?from Sixteen ...

Too Much Money: A Novel

37 reviews
Dominick Dunne

Crown, 2009

Cryptoautobiography
Dunne makes no pretense about writing fiction that is largely based on real people and events, and in this book it is quite an interesting game to figure out who is who. Several characters are rather easily distinguished but others are more difficult. One gets the feeling that he has an excellent memory for dialogue, a skill reminiscent of Truman Capote who claimed greater than ninety percent ...

Cleopatra's Daughter: A Novel

Michelle Moran

Crown, 2009

Another Great Read from Michelle Moran
Michelle Moran has once again entranced me with her writing. Cleopatra's Daughter is the story of Marc Antony & Cleopatra's (Kleopatra) children after they are taken to Rome after the deaths of their parents and the fall of Egypt to the Roman Caesar Octavian. As always with Michelle Moran's books I could not put this one down. She has researched so well into life in this time period the Romans ...

You Say Tomato, I Say Shut Up: A Love Story

Annabelle Gurwitch, Jeff Kahn

Crown, 2010

So funny
Wow. I had expected this book to be funny: I'm a big fan of THE BEN STILLER SHOW and have read Gurwitch in the past (FIRED!) and seen her Showtime special. But, what I didn't expect was how true, poignant, moving this book turned out to be. Yes, it's a "warts and all," laugh-out-loud comedy book about marriage: the most dysfunctional marriage you've ever seen. But, it's also the story of two ...

Elvis-Great Reading
Highly recommend this book. If one is to believe it contents and I see no reason not to, it is very insightful and informative. Actually learned something new about Elvis not previously avilable from other sources.

Ronald Kessler

Crown, 2009

Suspicions confirmed
This book was a good history of the Secret Service and how it operates. It was also a critique of what has happened to the organization since it was moved into Homeland Security. Essentially some of the corers are being cut to the point where the president or whoever the Secret Service is guarding might be in danger. During the relating of the history of the Secret Service vignettes on the ...
