| 1. |  | Rough Weather from Putnam Adult Price: $17.79 Customer Review:  Robert Parker's books are always a priority for me. I pre-order them and can't wait for them to come. My only problem is that they are so funny and fast paced that I read them in less than a day or two and then I'm left wanting more of Spenser, Susan, Hawk and the other recurring characters. I... |

| 2. |  | Yes!: 50 Scientifically Proven Ways to Be Persuasive from Free Press Price: $16.50 Customer Review:  Most people have covered what's good about this, and there is no doubt that the author knows his stuff. What I like, in addition to the solid materials, is that the author has used a lot of these theories in the field, it's not just some stuff observed in a lab. Also, I really like the bite-sized... |

The leftist is comfortable with the direction we're headed, and the capitalist despises the turn. But the great majority of us simply want to know what works.

| 4. |  | The Tale of Despereaux: Being the Story of a Mouse, a Princess, Some Soup, and a Spool of Thread (Tale of Despereaux) from Candlewick Price: $12.23 Customer Review:  I had to make a first review here in protest at such junk packaged as high-brow kids lit. The dark content is off-putting, but all the more so because it comes with an exceedingly poor plot & is written in an achingly moronic style. Honestly, I think the book adaptations of straight to dvd... |

It really goes deep into the hidden psychology on why people buy things and how they justify themselves to do it...

| 7. |  | Stop the 401(k) Rip-off!: Eliminate Costly Hidden Fees to Improve Your Life from Bridgeway Books Price: $13.57 Customer Review: Crazyman's Economics In researching "Crazyman's Economics", I discovered the "dirty secret" of Wall Street that they rely on the fees and hidden costs as Loeper so thoroughly describes in "Stop the 401(k) Rip-off!."

| 10. | [no image] | Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (Tom Sawyer's Comrade) from [The First Edition Library] Customer Review: I can't say more on the plot because it's quite obvious what the plot is just from illustrations of the novel. But on the "controversial" aspect of the novel involving the excessive use of the N word, people have to think of the time period that Twain is writing about and when the novel was... |
