Comment on Self-Help Reviews | June 1, 2013 by Donna Farrer http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/2013/06/books/nonfic/soc-sci/self-help-reviews-june-1-2013/#comment-104323 Donna Farrer Mon, 17 Jun 2013 16:48:20 +0000 http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/?p=34811#comment-104323 There are a great many self help books out there, but to me they all seem to go along the exact same lines with just a tweak here and there. I am looking for something that goes a little more into the neuroscience of self help. Mae Chinn Songer has a book coming out soon, but her blog is brilliant as she teaches about retraining the brain to change it's old ways so you can move forward with the actual self help parts of this journey. Her blog is at http://chinnsonger.com/mae-chinn-songer-blog/, and I am really a believer in her philosophy, worth a look for sure!

But your review, at the last, contains a spoiler, and I do so much want my readers to be surprised. Maybe toss in the words "SPOILER ALERT?" (Just sayin' as I have many librarian friends, especially within the Ocean County, NJ system!)

Comment on Audiobook Month Audies Giveaway: Solo Narration—Female by Mary Parmelee http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/2013/06/media/audio/audiobook-month-audies-giveaway-solo-narration-female/#comment-103399 Mary Parmelee Mon, 10 Jun 2013 17:43:55 +0000 http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/?p=34676#comment-103399 I'm surprised at the lack of response to Anne Hathaway. I think she does a great job with the Wizard of Oz, and have to say I really liked her reading of The Princess Diaries. I’m surprised at the lack of response to Anne Hathaway.

Comment on Audiobook Month Audies Giveaway: Solo Narration—Male by Jim http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/2013/06/media/audio/audiobook-month-audies-giveaway-solo-narration-male/#comment-103391 Jim Mon, 10 Jun 2013 15:54:02 +0000 http://reviews.libraryjournal.com/?p=34678#comment-103391 I like all the readers, but my vote would probably go to Hoffman or Firth depending on a longer reading. Maloney would be in the running, but the technical part of the recording (level way too low) hurts this one. It would be very hard to listen to THE ABSOLUTIST in any situation other than near total silence. Even road noise might overpower the recording.
