“The 50 Best Ways to Simplify Your Life” was sitting on a bookshelf of a family I babysit for. Loved what I saw at a glance, so I quickly put it on my Paperbackswap.com list! (which, if you haven’t heard of, is one of the best ways to get new reading material!) It’s just what the title describes: packed with a whole host of ways to simplify everything from schedule, family life, relationships, finances, etc.

For the second title, I actually saw the movie “Plain Truth” a year or so ago, and found it intriguing. Picked up a used copy of the book at a library sale for 50 cents and decided to read it. I’ve only read one other title by Jodi Picoult, “My Sister’s Keeper”. Very thought provoking and powerful. Not sure I’d recommend it to everyone, though.

And “The Birth Order Book” was lent to me by another family I babysit for. Nothing fabulous yet.
