Great for entertainment at parties, this fun work is broad fodder for essays and free writes, even thematic use in the classroom. The author's selections from favorite and noted sources flash timeless words of wisdom to the user. This slant on her concept of a book of answers is catchy. Fight the urge to read ahead. A perfect gift for students, book clubs, or anyone who has ever been in a library. -- Ellen
