I admit I am totally biased because I have the honor of being included in the book, but even if I were not I would be cheering Kelly on for a beautiful, inspiring creation!

AMAZON service is the worst in SHIPPING. Any other place we get the iteam in 1-2 days max for FREE. I mean what's the use of getting a urgently needed item after 15 days

.How Fiction Works
City Travel Guides > Books > Reference
by: James Wood

July 22, 2008
Breathtaking exposition on the development of the novel over the last few centuries, in particular the "realist" style. Brilliant non-fiction gem about fiction. Opinionated rather than encyclopedic, but a great touchstone for further reading.

The design of the book is particularly inviting--its modest weight, friendly typeface, and wide margins make this book a pleasant evening companion--a book you aren't afraid to ask out on a second date. I plan to re-read it once or twice if I ever get it back.

Bracing, memorable writing. If you want to add another dimension to your appreciation of the novel, this gorgeously edited book is ideal. If, like me, you are a writer of non-fiction, this book is a model.

.What Every BODY is Saying: An Ex-FBI Agent's Guide to Speed-Reading People
City Travel Guides > Books > Reference
by: Joe Navarro, Marvin Karlins

April 15, 2008
This fascinating book is a guide to the nonverbal communication people use in everyday situations. It comes from the FBIs analysis of nonverbal clues that telegraph untrustworthiness and deception. The author's goal is to help you understand and decipher body language in every day situations so that you can better understand people, whether they know it or not. A section of the book explores the brain and the limbic system, which is the source of involuntary signs that people demonstrate in response to their emotions. All in all a good look at a specific element of reading people.

If you're looking for a complete guide to reading and responding to other people, I absolutely loved a book called The Personality Code

.Barron's GRE: Graduate Record Examination
City Travel Guides > Books > Reference
by: Sharon Weiner Green, Ira K. Wolf

August 01, 2007
I thought maybe I should borrow this newer version of the Barron's GRE from the library and see if there's a big difference between this and the 2006-2007 one. I was disappointed that all the materials including the practice exams were the same. I would not bother to get a newer version if you already have the 2006-2007.

I read the negative reviews for this book before I purchased it. Nevertheless, I still ordered it. While the book is kinda like a phonebook type of product, the information in it is priceless. It covers so many topics. I strongly recommend it.

.Freakin' Fabulous: How to Dress, Speak, Behave, Eat, Drink, Entertain, Decorate, and Generally Be Better than Everyone Else
City Travel Guides > Books > Reference
by: Clinton Kelly

October 07, 2008
I laughed all the way through this book. Clinton is hilariously funny in this book, and it makes for an enjoyable reading experience. The humor is very tongue-in-cheek, but the advice is very real.

A must have for Clinton Kelly fans!

This book was well worth the money. If you are serious about taking the LSAT, you must commit to sitting down and taking real, timed tests. This book gives you ten to use, and it's great.
