Review:Dinner with Edward by Isabel Vincent exceeded my expectations in some ways. In others, it pole-vaulted over them. I give it my highest praise for a book that celebrates food, friendship and family: my New Yorker Father, the chef, would have loved this story.

About that: Dinner with Edward is not a novel but a memoir, so the female main character is also the author. I didn't realize this fact until after I finished the story and did a little research. Until that point a part of me wondered... Read more

Review:I would reccomend this book to any female from young adult on as it is a totally empowering guide to gaining, maintaining and improving confidence, dignity as well as understanding what true love really is supposed to be like. Revamps the soul from settling for the surface or pretense of it. Intelligent, witty, humorous, relatable and actual. Read more

Review:The book is amazing. It is the foundation for Transaction Analysis. All people play games with each other, either consciously or unconsciously. This book is easy to read and will teach you how to spot a game and how to not fall into its trap.
I highly recommend it for everyone. Read more

Review:This book is phenomenal. I have read many books on ethical poly and open relationships and I could happily throw them all away now and just read this. My only complaint is that I wish they would write another book for monogamous people because the principles they lay out are transformative for anyone no matter what your relationship style. I recommend this book to all my mono friends now but of course many of them are turned off by the emphasis on poly Read more

Review:A good primer for those interested in expanding or experimenting with their love and relationship style. Positive and well-rounded descriptions and advice. No ranting, no self-congratulatory expositions. Easy to read and access what you are looking for. Enjoy! Read more

Review:As was her intent, Ms. Pausch’s info about the lack of information that caregivers are given - the lack of support - is scary especially when you’re dealing with a life-threatening illness like she was dealing with. I am a caregiver to a spouse with Parkinson’s and dementia; our doctors have given me almost no information about dementia, to my detriment . But Ms. Pausch’s situation was much more dire than mine; she was dealing with three children under the age of six, and a life and death sit... Read more

Review:Megan Devine has not only managed to use words when words are nearly impossible to come by, but she somehow brings solace where solace cannot be had and nurturance where one is lost for both the griever and the witness. Read more

Review:The book makes many religious references and is not geared toward male same-sex relationships. I expected the book to be general and mention, "them, they, their" pronouns instead of constantly declaring a male/female relationship. I bought the book because I receive their emails and they don't mention gender at all in them of which is why I bought the book. But I am going to return it due to these two factors. Read more

Review:As usual Bob Grant has created an extremely helpful guide for women everywhere. It's so easy to see how his advice is spot on perfect. In the past I have seen men act just the way he describes. It's great to be able to read a book by a man who obviously understand both men and women in relationships and has the ability to communicate that understanding. Read more

Review:Everything stated in this book is good advice and combines all the little snippets I heard from various concerned friends and family. So if you are really tired and lost and just don't feel like hearing people talk, I suggest reading this book in one afternoon.

It served as a reinforcement of all the things various people have already told me, and they all make sense just that sometimes when your mother tells you things, even though you know deep down that they are true, you just feel lik... Read more
