so, if i'm reading in a magazine or online about a book that sounds interesting, i'll reserve it on the indy public library's website - every once in a while, everything comes in all at once - i'm deluged with books right now and they all have to be returned asap!!

here's a glimpse at some of what i've gotten:

I rant, therefore I am - Dennis Miller - luckily, this was a book on CD, so i burned it for listening later...

The carbohydrate addict's cookbook : 250 all-new low-carb recipes that will cut your cravings and keep you slim for life - Richard F. Heller - haven't had a chance to look at this one...don't really care about the slim for life part, it's the carb addict part that i relate to - definitely a problem for a diabetic...

The F word : how to survive your family - Louie Anderson - i'm about halfway through this one...damn, louie's gettin pretty philosophical...

The Sopranos on the couch : analyzing television's greatest series - Maurice Yacowar - damn, and here i just thought the Sopranos was just a good mobster show...apparently each episode is packed with layers and layers of meaning...interesting, but i didn't finish the book - not my cup o tea...

What's my line? : The inside history of tv's most famous panel show - Gilbert Fates - thought this one would be interesting after reading "Backstage With the Original Hollywood Square" by Peter Marshall, a b-day gift from mom...i thought wrong, the what's my line book was rather bland...what i read of it, at least...

Shop, save, and share - Ellie Kay - hell, i could've written this book (without the religious references, that is)...guess it would be useful for someone that doesn't know the right way to use coupons, but i've got that system down...

The complete Tightwad gazette : promoting thrift as a viable alternative lifestyle - Amy Dacyczyn, a.k.a. The Frugal Zealot - interesting, but didn't really learn anything new here....

Feng shui at work : arranging your office space for peak-performance and maximum profit - Kirsten Lagatree - haven't cracked this one open yet, but i know it's desperately needed - a good vibe in the workplace would be spiffy...
