from Random House
Price: $14.99

Customer Review:
A 24 year old man, Deo, escapes Burundi's genocide and arrives in NYC with $200 in his pocket. He speaks no English and ends up going to medical school in the USA. This, by itself, is an amazing story. The book is partially the story of Deo in the USA and partially about his life prior to arrival in... more info

2.The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Creating Currents of Electricity and HopeThe Boy Who Harnessed the Wind: Creating Currents of Electricity and Hope
from William Morrow
Price: $10.99

Customer Review:
Enthralled the entire time - not only is the innovation and science in spite of his (seemingly) limited opportunity fascinating, but the other stories- about his family, his culture, and his history- are funny, charming, and highly entertaining.

3.Same Kind of Different As Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who Bound Them TogetherSame Kind of Different As Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who Bound Them Together
from Thomas Nelson
Price: $7.29

Customer Review:

This book made me sit back and think. I loved Denver's ability to just reason out and express his thoughts in simple to understand "prophecy". A couple of his quotes have become standard fare in my small group and large meeting presentations. Worthy of anybody's time to read.

from Random House Large Print
Price: $14.97

Customer Review:
If you can get past the abominably poor language and grammar, composite characters, changed names, dramatized events, and fictionalized dialogue, your reward is...a tedious, overwrought, melodramatic, self-serving memoir about nothing from a 34-year old dilettante. Whether your politics place you on... more info

My book came in excellent condition and this is a book for all men to read to understand what it is to a real man in our world today. It is an exciting behind the scenes look into the NFL and the faith community.

from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $8.47

Customer Review:
I'm inspired, inspired by great women like Diane Rehm, Maya Angelou, Asha Bhonsle, Marian McPartland, to name a few. Today is my day to be in awe with one of them, i.e. Maya Angelou. She's so much! I mean, she is a writer, a poet, an adviser, a teacher, a speaker, but most importantly, she's a... more info

8.I Am the New BlackI Am the New Black
from Random House Audio
Price: $13.94

Customer Review:
This autobiographical expose is both strong and funny and the strong parts are funny and the funny parts are very strong indeed. However as told here, there is a tragic comic aspect running along in the subtext of Mr. Morgan's life. Precisely in the way he has continued throughout it to dig holes... more info

9.My Father s Paradise: A Son s Search for His Jewish Past in Kurdish IraqMy Father's Paradise: A Son's Search for His Jewish Past in Kurdish Iraq
from Algonquin Books
Price: $4.95

Customer Review:
This book amazed me from cover to cover, and I became sad toward the end as I knew I would run out of pages to savor.
Sabar's writing is tight, from the journalism background no doubt, but his subject is broad. He chronicles a people, a poor minority of a minority the Kurdish Jews, and a... more info

10.The Hemingses of Monticello: An American FamilyThe Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $11.78

Customer Review:
Although the author belabors some points, as though she is facing a jury, I have found this book to give me a much clearer understanding of what life in slavery was like. It has also helped me better grasp why it was not abolished earlier.
It is also fascinating as a history of the Hemmingses,... more info
