Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus: The Classic Guide to Understanding the Opposite Sex391 reviews
John Gray

Harper Paperbacks, 2004

Great Guidebook
A lot has been said already about this book over the years since it first hit the shelves, and I'm not sure I can offer any new information. I believe everybody should either read this book or books like it. We all need a greater understanding; not just of others (our partners, family and friends), but also of ourselves. The more compatible a couple naturally is the better they will get on. ... 		  
  







  
  
Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog1317 reviews
John Grogan

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

Absolutely wonderful
This is a book I kept seeing in the stores and passing by, and finally recently picked it up and read a few pages. Right then I was hooked. I took it home and read the entire thing that night. I laughed out loud, and I cried too with this book. It takes you on this entire journey with this hilarious and loving dog. I also have a yellow lab, so I related to this book also very much. They're ...

How to Read Literature Like a Professor: A Lively and Entertaining Guide to Reading Between the Lines59 reviews
Thomas C. Foster

Harper Paperbacks, 2003

It may ruin literature for you unless you can both appreciate your opinion and the authors.
Most people I encounter, after reading this book, complain that it is pushing a single opinion about the meaning of a story. That's not the case. While it does convey the language that people use to communicate, since that is what literature is supposed to do, it still does recognize that everyone will hear a story differently, due to the intertextuality it even mentions. This is an excellent ... 		  
  







  
  
Raising Your Spirited Child Rev Ed: A Guide for Parents Whose Child Is More Intense, Sensitive, Perceptive, ...22 reviews
Mary Sheedy Kurcinka

Harper Paperbacks, 2006

I finally understand!
When I first started trying to do research on what would help my daughter I didn't know where to start. I knew she wasn't ADD or ADHD, but there was definitely something going on as we were experiencing phases where the tantrums were taking place all day, every day. Frankly, it was bringing a level of dyfunction into our home that does not belong. I finally learned about "Spirited Children" ... 		  
  







  
  
NLP: The New Technology of Achievement58 reviews
NLP Comprehensive

Harper Paperbacks, 1996

One of the best books on NLP that includes A LOT of useful exercises.
This book is great in that it not only explains some of the basics of NLP but it also includes 43 different exercises to do while you are reading the book. Most of these exercises can be done quickly and have been, for me, generally quite effective. These exercises are not easy to find online, so it's nice to have them compiled in one place here. For the price of a paperback it's hardly a ... 		  
  







  
  
The Volumetrics Eating Plan: Techniques and Recipes for Feeling Full on Fewer Calories76 reviews
Barbara J. Rolls

Harper Paperbacks, 2007

FEELING FULL WITH LESS
The Volumetrics Eating Plan is not a short-term diet book, but provides recipes and ideas on how to eat for the long term. It shows you how to eat fewer calories by making what you eat less calorie dense. It does this by focusing on foods with high water and fiber content. The Volumetrics approach emphasizes foods with a low "energy density," (calories) that are high in water content such as ...

Ken Grimwood

Fiction, who knew?
I don't do fiction either. Will now. Finished this book a couple of weeks ago, and it's still inspiring me to live my life to the fullest! 		  
  







  
  
Do Dead People Watch You Shower?: And Other Questions You've Been All but Dying to Ask a Medium21 reviews
Concetta Bertoldi

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

The answer is yes, dead people watch you shower
The title of this book, "Do Dead People Watch you Shower?" has been a question of mine so I bought the book to find out the answer. Unfortuately, according to the author, the answer is yes, dead people do watch us shower and watch us do everything else that we thought was private. This wasn't the answer that I wanted to hear but later in the book she presented information about two readings ... 		  
  







  
  
Government Pirates: The Assault on Private Property Rights--and How We Can Fight It1 review
Don Corace

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

A WAKE UP CALL FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS
Using real life examples, Don Corace reveals how ordinary Americans are being terrorized, robbed, and in some cases even forced into bankruptcy by government officials and judges who have lost all respect for the ideals of freedom envisioned by America's Founding Fathers. Corace provides an easy-to-read overview of the legal cases and political influences which have fostered the dramatic ... 		  
  







  
  
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal487 reviews
Christopher Moore

Harper Paperbacks, 2003

This book is great!
I absolutely adore this book! This is one I can read over and over again, and still be able to laugh! Even though it's a fictional book, it makes Jesus (Joshua)human and you enjoy following Biff and Joshua on their search for what it means to be the Messiah. The angel Raziel is hilarious, too, with his aspiration to become Spider-man! This book got me hooked on Christopher Moore! 		  
  







  
  
Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art125 reviews
Scott McCloud

Harper Paperbacks, 1994

Brilliant Book!
Okay, this is seriously one of the most brilliant books I have ever read, and I have Henry (who is also brilliant) to thank for introducing this to me. (Thank you, Henry.) Although this book has been around since '93, I suspect it's nowhere near as recognized as it deserves to be, but with time that will change, I hope. The full title is "Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art," and what ... 		  
  







  
  
FairTax: The Truth: Answering the Critics113 reviews
Neal Boortz, John Linder

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

An interesting and rather convincing book
When the Americans For Fair Taxation (AFFT) people first set out to reform taxation, they began doing research to find out what the American public would consider the most fair tax. To their surprise, what they found that the American people wanted a consumption tax, that would fall heaviest on the richest taxpayers and contain safeguards for the poorest taxpayers. And so, after a good deal of ... 		  
  







  
  
The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands112 reviews
Laura Schlessinger

Harper Paperbacks, 2006

Best manual for women who want to understand their men
I give this book (along with a similar book by another author targeted to men) to young engaged couples (and recommend it widely to others). A lot of the men read her book. They rave about how well she gets it. She says "men are simple creatures". The men agree (we are simple creatures, truley we are). She explains how to interact successfully with men. The men say she has it exactly ... 		  
  







  
  
The Field Updated Ed: The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe117 reviews
Lynne McTaggart

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

Beyond expectations
It isn't very often a book or an author has an opportunity to change lives and yet Lynne has provoked her readers to embrace a new way of living in this world. It is beyond The Secret, it is about being aware of your thoughts and taking the positive action to correct what is not working - to know that you are in control. 		  
  







  
  
After the Affair: Healing the Pain and Rebuilding Trust When a Partner Has Been Unfaithful78 reviews
Janis Abrahms Spring, Michael Spring

Harper Paperbacks, 1997

highly recommended
No two situations are exactly the same but what this book successfully does is try to help both parties address why it happened and how they can move on together...or apart. I found it very helpful and very thorough. The flood of feelings you go through when an affair occurs is overwhelming and reading this book helps you realize that: 1. you're not alone, 2. that people can and do get past it ... 		  
  







  
  
Outrage: How Illegal Immigration, the United Nations, Congressional Ripoffs, Student Loan Overcharges, ...77 reviews
Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann

Harper Paperbacks, 2008

Outrage
This book should be a must for all Americans as it reveals just how we are being ripped off, particularly by our elected representatives. No one (except Bill O'Reilly) is looking out for us. 		  
  







  
  
The Dance of Anger: A Woman's Guide to Changing the Patterns of Intimate Relationships90 reviews
Harriet Goldhor Lerner

Harper Paperbacks, 2005

The Dance of Anger
This book is extremely helpful. I often wondered why I give up so much of my own personality to blend in. Now I am working on recovering my personality so I can be a leader and be myself. I am sure there are enough doormats in the world without me being one too. Everyone should read this book! 		  
  







  
  
Emotional Blackmail: When the People in Your Life Use Fear, Obligation, and Guilt to Manipulate You68 reviews
Susan Forward, Donna Frazier

Harper Paperbacks, 1998

For those in need, I highly recommend this book!
I myself am currently in the FOG that she describes in this and it has hit home very well and helping me redeem myself. She's VERY good at explaining and assisting. Sometimes I feel she's right there. Very informative about the different types of emotional blackmailers. I'm not done reading, but have gotten 3/4 of the way and I am so happy I bought this book. It caught my eye one day browsing ... 		  
  







  
  
The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible ...153 reviews
Ross W. Greene

Harper Paperbacks, 2005

Great Book, Big Help!
I loved this book. I have to say I was skeptical at first, as I felt the author was talking down to the reader, however, I was being over sensitive. As the mother of an adhd child, often a person gets over sensitive to percieved criticism when none is really there. Anyway, this book opened a whole new view for me on my child's behavior and the basic reasons behind it. At last I saw why ...
