The Book of General Ignorance

This is a cool skip around book. My husband and I are both "skipping around" in it. It's neat that we've both read different parts and we always end up telling each other interesting things we've learned as they come up (or not) in conversation. (We keep it in the bathroom) We've even broke it out at parties and everyone can't help but to turn it into a trivia game. Which in turn makes for a great drunken theological/philosophical group discussion. It's just fun. We love it. It does have a couple entries that might greatly surprise the Bible thumper. It did me.

It's easy, easy to recommend this book to my friends. All I have to do is read them, or have them read, the short and "INTERESTING" preface. That in itself is an excellent hook. I can't think of anyone that would not love this book.Buy The Book of General Ignorance!

The Big-Ass Book of Crafts

Are the antiques of tomorrow! Before I went to graduate school, I helped manage a French antique store. We sold everything from the rustic to the refined, but the items the most people grooved on were the smaller quirky objects that were more often than not made by "amateur" crafts people: tramp art frames, naive paintings, coquillage pedestals, and even a whole dresser surfaced in "pique assiette". Handmade items by the non-professional have more charm and warmth. And if sales are any indication of desirability, then these are the types of objects that people seek out to have in their homes because we sold them for a pretty penny.

I think this book carries on the great tradition of amateur crafting. I found most of the entries charming in a quirkily stylish manner. There are a few projects in the book that were perfect for my home, and I must say turned out pretty good even in my bumbling hands. And I recently made something from the book as a gift for a friend and she loved it. She was touched that I made it with my own hands, and it's now in her dining room. And like she said - "better than some mass produced crap made in China." And who knows, maybe that gift I made for my friend will end up in an antique shop decades from now. I look forward to checking out this author's other books.

The Book of Secrets: Unlocking the Hidden Dimensions of Your Life (Chopra, Deepak)

The Book of Secrets: Unlocking the Hidden Dimensions of Your Life by Deepak Chopra is a book about teaching the reader the secrets of themselves. There are 15 secrets ranging from --"the world is in you," to "what you seek, you already are, "and "freedom tames the mind." The author also reassures the reader that "finding the hidden dimensions in yourself is the only way to fulfill your deepest hunger." Chopra blends science with spiritually by showing how the mystery of life can be demonstrated by the understanding and workings of one's body. The author tries to impress one important secret and that is "you are not in the world; the world is in you."

After you read this book it may be a good time to consider reading my book entitled "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers, a Message for Everyone" (See Profile Above)
