I simply love reading, been doing it since i was old enough to hold a book. I think reading broadens your mind in a way nothing else does (yes, its a cliché but, in the end, most clichés are too often repeated truths, right?) you get to live other lives and dream much larger things than the sad people who never read.

    Hi Marisa,
    "Bad Bridesmaid" is a fun read, but a bit repetitive. It certainly isn't a social history or intellectually stimulating commentary! Since it is entirely anecdotal, it is like a gossip session with a group of women. This can be fun and cathartic, but my recommendation would be to read this book when you want something light-hearted, and also to borrow it or get a second hand copy--I don't think I would buy it new:) Hope this helps,
    Regards,
    Laura

    Hi Marisa, Thanks for the note. My reading actually is mostly nonfiction, business, history, economics, etc. But on self esteem I can tell you the classic is Nathaniel Branden's The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem. Very good book, wish I would have read it as a teen. Ron
