This book's in my TBR piles as we speak. <br /><br />A book I'd highly recommend is MINDLESS EATING, by Brian Wansink.

This sounds like a good one. I talked about my current favorite nonfiction book last week, but another I really liked recently was A Million Miles in A Thousand Years by Donald Miller. It's especially interesting for writers because it's a story about story.Dina Sleimanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05214446103057806111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-61696858604416818432010-03-13T17:58:27.397-05:002010-03-13T17:58:27.397-05:00Wenda, this book sounds like an interesting and th...Wenda, this book sounds like an interesting and thought provoking read.

He's very easy on the palette. You can google some his articles and find New Yorker reprints online. As a writer I recommend "Something Borrowed."Wenda Dottridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086728367896516923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502152359497137754.post-12934504828683851252010-03-13T12:31:40.679-05:002010-03-13T12:31:40.679-05:00Hey Deb, I'm pretty certain Narelle's colo...Hey Deb, I'm pretty certain Narelle's colours are the same as mine.

What you're describing sounds a lot like a guy I listen to on the radio every day. And I do like collections like this, rather than non-fiction that is fairly heavy. I like that it can be absorbed in small bits before you return to the text.

I think I know where the 'hair colour and feminism' subject will go.<br /><br />Thanks Wenda!Debra E. Marvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17853387871623424853noreply@blogger.com
