I read it and its companion, "Today Matters". The author's style is a little verbose for my tastes, but you're right: there's some good stuff in there. Can I suggest: "Success is a Choice" by Rick Pitino; and "Overboard!: A True Blue-water Odyssey of Disaster and Survival" by Michael J. Tougias. Lastly, one of the funniest books I've ever read is "Sh*t My Dad Says" by Justin Halpern. It's nothing like the lame sitcom. Brent:

I have to agree with Maron, 'The Godfather' is an amazing book; I've read it at least 10 times. As for Stephen King, I think he's much better when he's discussing insanity rather than the occult. I prefer stories like 'The Bachman Books', 'Secret Window Secret Garden', 'Misery', etc. I’m going to steal this idea for my blog.
