2251 Self Help Books

The best thing that can be said about this genre is they sell. And sell. And sell. The sillier the title, the bigger the sales. I was in a bookstore today looking for a hard to find section and passed the self help section. I couldn't resist. I just had to jot down some of the titles.

  • Sham; how the self-help movement made America helpless
  • Why men never remember and women never forget
  • The guide to picking up girls
  • I used to miss him but my aim is improving
  • Babe bible
  • Life is short wear your party pants
  • What's it like being you?
  • Read my hips
  • Why can't you shut up?
  • You're wearing that?
  • Do I look fat in this?
  • The book of No
I'm guessing there is no advice in these books you couldn't get for free at this blog!

Probably. But you can read the book in one sitting and don't have to come back day after day to just get part of it.;->

( I am embarrassed at using an emoticon, but it seemed so necessary)

Loved that last comment! I will be sitting her for hours catching up on your posts when we get back from our travels -- I gotta "collect my thoughts" every day!
