<p>Yesterday evening I listend to the local NPR show about book recommendations for Christmas.
Books were recommended by small bookstore owners, and one of the guests on the show was a local bookseller whose store I adore. She did write a book which I higly recommend for all you that like independent bookstores:</p>
<p>Anyway, she was talking a lot about this one:</p>
<p>YES (was recommended on another thread here) - and LOVED it! My father (who passed away last weekend) and I shared quite a few chuckles and philosophical conversations from that book this past summer. Sure wish a book like that was around while I was in college, since I have the type of brain that grasps a concept easier through example, anecdote, or (in this case), jokes.</p>
