In the Lake of the Woods by Tim O'Brien
"This is a deceptively angry book. It may look normal and unassuming on the outside, even boring, but on the inside, it's a slow-building, roiling, burning rage, the kind that sucks you in and makes you burn along with it. And I could not stop reading" Read more of this review »

You Can't Make This Stuff Up by Lee Gutkind
"The advice was good, if a bit obvious most of the time. Overall, this book felt lazy, as if Gutkind were trying to fulfill a contract. There's also a few too many plugs for his magazine."

“When his life was ruined, his family killed, his farm destroyed, Job knelt down on the ground and yelled up to the heavens, "Why god? Why me?" and the thundering voice of God answered, There's just something about you that pisses me off.”
