I enjoyed this so much more than I expected to. I thought that I wouldn't enjoy Razo (the protagonist in this one), but I found my self drawn to his less-than-a-hero/victor persona. He was more real life than I'd've expected and it was refreshing. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80172260 What the Dog Saw: And Other Adventures (Hardcover) by Malcolm Gladwell

One thing that was great about this book was that you can start it and put it aside to read other things and go back to it because of the way it is written. I totally enjoyed all the odd bits of knowledge and information coiled around Jacobs' own life. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/55667518 Shadow Divers (Paperback) by Robert Kurson

4 and a half stars. I was not disappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed Gladwell's first two books and I loved this one as well. I was sharing everything I was reading with whomever I could get to listen! Though my 15 yr old is not convinced that being in school more (which is one of the success points he uses in one section) is an advantage that she cares to have!! ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78312442 to: The Help (Hardcover) by Kathryn Stockett
bookshelves: favorites
I am so happy I finally got to read this book. I was a little unsure that I would like it since I kept hearing how wonderful it was from everyone and I was sure that I would have too high expectations and be disappointed. Instead I have found my favorite book for 2009, and I am going to have to pick it as my book for my book group this year. ]]>
