I could spend days in bookstores. I belong to a fun book club, with a diverse group of people. We have read some great stuff that I never would have picked up. I think that is what is unique about this site. Peeking in someone's bookshelves tells a lot about them. hmmm...what does mine say about me? I especially love art technique books and... more »

  • The New Glucose Revolution
    • Rated 5 stars

    You really can lose weight just by making better choices in what you eat. This is a great book that could change your life, it did mine.

  • Tim Holtz Distressables 2
    • Rated 5 stars

    Tim is a true talent. If you ever get the opportunity to take a class with him. Do not pass it up, you will never forget it. Plus he really is the nicest guy ever. His techniques and products in the marketplace with his name on them are fabulous. Everyone needs to own the Tim Holtz Tonic Scissors!

    Endless Road - Tommy Emmanuel

    by Tommy Emmanuel
    • Rated 5 stars

    I have seen Tommy in concert several times. I was even fortunate enough to meet him, as he is friends with some close friends of mine. If you enjoy acoustic guitar, I urge you to see him in concert. You will never forget it, and he has led a very interesting life. A genius with the guitar.

  • The Hali'Imaile General Store Cookbook: Homecooking from Maui
    • Rated 5 stars

    I have taken a cooking class from Bev Gannon and eaten at Halimaile several times. Top rate. Bev knows local produce, Maui, is a wonderful chef, and personally put Maui Cuisine on the map. Great book.

  • Maui Revealed
    • Rated 5 stars

    I am usually a Frommers fan. This book however is far and away better than Frommers. This author knows Hawaii. It speaks of "off the beaten path" stuff, you would not normally know about. We love Maui and have been there several times in the last few years and was married there. If you go to Maui, buy this book!

  • The Art of Peter Max
    • Rated 5 stars

    Peter Max is pure inspiration to me. I adore primary colors and contemporary design. This is a great retrospective of his work and my fave of his icons is the man in the hat/zero max. Artistic genius!

  • Talking Dirty With the Queen of Clean: Second Edition
    • Rated 5 stars

    Wow, I can't recommend this book enough. This is way better than Heloise. This book has single handedly averted disaster in my home several times. I keep it in the kitchen with my cookbooks. That probably sounds weird. GO buy this book along with a box of 20 Mule Team Borax, Leather CPR, and Odorzout. The Queen rocks!

  • The Complete Guide to Altered Imagery : Mixed-Media Techniques for Collage, Altered Books, Artist Journals, and More
    • Rated 5 stars

    I have met Karen and taken a class from her as well. Her altering photographs is top notch. A fabulous talent and terrific human being to boot. If you are into mixed media art, this book needs to be on your shelf. She should have bought stock in Nashua Metal Tape. I think she single handedly made that companies profits soar in the last few years. Read the book to find out.

  • Collage Unleashed
    • Rated 5 stars

    I have taken classes with Traci. She is fabulously talented. I have gleaned more from her book than lots of others in this category. I still use more of her techniques than many I have learned over the last several years. A must-buy if you are into mixed media art.
