Beyond Blue by: Therese Borchard Book Review and Giveaway:CONTEST EXTENDED TO 3/7 @ MIDNIGHT

About:
"Therese Borchard may be one of the frankest, funniest people on the planet. That, combined with her keen writing abilities has made her Beliefnet blog, Beyond Blue, one of the most trafficked blogs on the site.

BEYOND BLUE, the book, is part memoir/part self-help. It describes Borchard's experience of living with manic depression as well as providing cutting-edge research and information on dealing with mood disorders. By exposing her vulnerability, she endears herself immediately to the reader and then reduces even the most depressed to laughter as she provides a companion on the journey to recovery and the knowledge that the reader is not alone.

Comprised of four sections and twenty-one chapters, BEYOND BLUE covers a wide range of topics from codependency to addiction, poor body image to postpartum depression, from alternative medicine to psychopharmacology, managing anxiety to applying lessons from therapy. Because of her laser wit and Erma Bombeck sense of humor, every chapter is entertaining as well as serious.

Review:
Beyond Blue by Therese Borchard is a one of the best Self Help books on depression I have ever read. The book is straight forward and honest about depression never loosing site of society's views on the disease itself. Beyond Blue is a caring, honest, often humorous, sometimes emotional look at life from a survivor of depression. Therese boldly talks of her battles with depression sharing her time spent in mental hospitals, counseling, and despair. Therese shares her no nonsense view on treating depression with a solid foundation of her research from holistic healing to medication to shock therapy. Therese tried it all and she shares her story with a whit and courage that is often times infectious. I would recommend this book if you are questioning depression in your life or the life of someone you love.

How to be Famous by: Heidi Montag or Spencer Pratt Book Giveaway ***CLOSED***

Do you all remember my review I wrote last month about this funny book? Well if not click the word review and check it out. I found this book a fun read for myself. I would say I wouldn't want my daughter to read it though. I don't want her thinking along the lines of these two no matter how tongue in cheek. I understand they are not the people they want you to believe they are but even if you look over some of the language its just not something I would want my child to read. But I digress this book is alot of fun and will leave you with a sense of realty about who these two really are and who they are 'playing' on the show. So who wants my copy?! Yep, I've decided to part with it and I want one of you to have it!

Review: How to Be Famous by Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt

Have you heard of these two? I know right, the laughs begin or the eyes start to roll the moment I think of them. But I have to admit over the years the infamous Speidi has grown on me. But I have often asked myself why are these people everywhere I look? They have to have some kind of magic potion. They are not actors or sports stars they're just reality stars. Sub-characters to boot! I was curious really curious. Honestly I've thought, I need a bottle of what they are using or at least an instruction guide. lol Leave to Speidi to come through for me! They've written a book folks one that chronicles their rise to the top. With quirky tidbits on how to "unlock the secrets of celebrity couple math" to ways to "Increase your capacity for evil with Spencer's "Villain-o-meter". The entire book is very tongue in cheek. You'll walk away from it with a lot more 'like' for these two I promise whether it be like or dislike is up too you though. They really cracked me up. The book was a huge page turner complete with pictures. I don't know about you but I love pictures. All I could do was laugh and shake my head at their shameless, no apologees guide to fame. I recommend you pick one up and pass it along to a friend. We all need a good laugh and these two once again deliver! If you're too shy to buy one at the local bookstore I suggest picking one up online. They retail for $19.99, Spencer says that's about 4 OK! Magazines lol.
