I'd Rather Eat Chocolate: Learning to Love My Low Libido24 reviews
Joan Sewell

Broadway, 2007

It's not about boredom

+ Funny and honest
+ Enjoyed the book, with caveats

I disagree with "Nancy." This book is not about stuffing your face with chocolate--sounds like she's getting a little hysterical about it. Jesus, no one said you had to buy the book. If not desiring a lot of sex is always about boredom for women, then how come their husbands aren't getting bored? ...

A Sweet, Neurotic, and Adorably Charming Heroine...and cupcakes!

Alice Fisher has more than a touch of anxiety, so it seems that she's found the perfect partner in fellow neurotic Stephen, an attorney who insists on splitting every bill right down the middle.

Dirty Little Secrets from Otherwise Perfect Moms20 reviews
Trisha Ashworth, Amy Nobile

Chronicle Books, 2008

not really worth it

This book essentially has one line (secret) per page. I suppose you can call that concise but it also seemed empty. I read through it in under 10 minutes. Kind of disappointing.
  
  











  



  
The Starter Marriage and the Future of Matrimony28 reviews
Pamela Paul

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2003

This should be required reading for anybody marrying young.

+ Great Book..
+ Seems to reflect a lot of what I see and experience

Marriage is so vital -- why do people treat it lightly? I recently saw author Pamela Paul on an old episode of the television show "Politically Incorrect" in which she was pitted against a man who was trying to sell marriage seminars based on his patented "three As". "All you need for a happy ...
  
  











  



  
The Smart One3 reviews
Ellen Meister

Avon A, 2008

Sophomore Sizzler!

+ The Smart One is the Most Delicious Summer Read Yet!

I couldn't put this book down. Meister's writing is deft and witty, and the characters are engrossing and the plot is compelling. Meister proves Wolfe wrong -- and Kansas's famous Dorothy correct -- you can go home again. And then she mines that concept for gold. When Bev Bloomrosen, the "smart" ...

Beautiful, cheery pictures of jolly baker doing his thing with yummy looking treats. Fun to read out loud. ...
