BOOK REVIEWS

The Rosie Project by Graeme Simson

Picture
" Funny, touching and hard to put down, this romantic comedy is all about finding love.  Will a 16 page (both sides) questionnaire guarantee the perfect wife?  Logic driven genetics professor, Don, whose "brain is wired differently" hopes so in this unconventional tale of the challenges of partnering."

The Dinner by Herman Koch

11/21/2013

0 Comments

 
Picture
"Warning: this is not the feel good book of the year.  It is more like someone poured a bucket of ice water on your head.  Two couples sit through a four course dinner at a fancy restaurant in Holland - with the presentation of each course their carefully constructed masquerade unravels bit by bit.  Dark and underhanded motives are exposed!"

David & Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants by Malcolm Gladwell

11/12/2013

0 Comments

 
Picture
"A powerful commentary on those who rise above adversity, achieving counterintuitive results, and sometimes using unconventional strategies.  

Gladwell asks the question of wether going to a top school, with a high bar for acceptance, is a rational goal-is it better to be a little fish in a big pond, or a big fish in a little pond?

He also identifies common threads in the backgrounds of those whose achievements he studied-what is common among British Prime ministers, leaders of causes, those who do not fold under pressure?

A thought-provoking and enjoyable read!!"
