Review:Book arrived just as described. My 3-year old just started getting money for doing chores and he saved up to buy Calvin & Hobbes in "good" condition. Book looks great & reads great to a little boy who finds naughty Calvin hilarious! Read more
Review:I wanted an, "Outlander World" Order of events, reading list. This gives you;
A published date list,
A Lord John list,
A short story list and
An Outlander series list.
I want to read the series, as it happens... So Since time is a loop, Maybe it starts with Rogers parents short story or not?
It could have the traditional reading order, then a, "Spoiler Alert" lists section in different chronological orders.
This would be helpful for a Outlander Virgin or an "Outlander Outla... Read more
Review:If you're looking for a similar book that's better written, look up Coping with Difficult People by Robert Bramson. It's older, so it doesn't have the modern applications like this book has, but Bramson's book is more plainly written. Easier to understand and provides direction in how to handle the situations you're presented with. Read more
Review:This book is consistently quotable. In every chapter there’s an anecdote or a quote that is fun and lively and useful in other contexts. The author has a ton of public speaking experience and is willing to share it with the reader in a pleasant and entertaining way.
Though you won’t get much help with the content of a speech per say, you will get help with crafting the message and your delivery. I recommend it to anyone who wants to get better at public speaking. Read more

Review:MY all time favorite as a kid's book! Read it in about 4th grade, got hooked on all of Farley's books and this was by far my favorite.
I had to buy each book with my own allowance money, which might tell you how much I loved them! Read more
Review:Uh, I think I was expecting something different, but maybe not since it turned out it's exactly what the title promises, which is basically how to suck out all the joy from reading a book for pleasure and capturing a book's insights from that pleasure and not because you're looking for ways to fulfill your own ideological agenda as someone lucky enough to have a job for life. It did sort of make me recall how a lot of professors rip al the fun out of a book when they start deconstructing it. An... Read more
Review:Useful when planning a trip to the 49th state. It's huge and there are few roads. Easy to read. Street maps of the most visited towns. Maps of Denali National Park, Kenai Fjords National Park and the Inside Passage. Read more
Review:I love this cookbook! I bought it for my wife but was hogging it so much I bought a second one for myself! I don't like most cookbooks because they tell you how to prepare a dish but they don't tell you why the ingredients work so well together. So if the dish does not quite taste the way I like, I have no idea how to fix it. This cookbook goes into detail about how the four elements, salt, fat, acid and heat, are used to create great dishes! I even learned how to make my own balsamic vinaigrett... Read more
