Seeking Sara Summers by Susan Gabriel
Seeking Sara Summers

Leslie Richman, November 29, 2009

Seeking Sara Summers is a great novel that deftly explores those places that all women come to in our lives. Sara explores her memories, fears, and hopes as she navigates changes occuring in her life. This novel is not only a terrific and universal story, but the setting and story are lush and well-written.

Vegan Soul Kitchen: Fresh, Healthy, and Creative African American Cuisine

Leslie Richman, October 12, 2009

Vegan Soul Kitchen is a spot-on collection of delicious soul food favorites translated into modern vegan presentations. The flavors are familiar and memorable, made with healthy and accessible ingredients. Bryant Terry writes with warmth and personality, and the end result is an impressive cookbook filled with recipes you'll want to make again and again.

Insecure at Last: Losing It in Our Security-Obsessed World by Eve Ensler
Insecure at Last: Losing It in Our Security-Obsessed World

Leslie Richman, August 16, 2009

In this book, Ensler somehow has the ability to take the most heart-wrenching subjects and compile them into a book that I can't stop picking up. Insecure At Last is composed of universal subject matter honed with a very personal touch.

Baking: From My Home to Yours by Dorie Greenspan
Baking: From My Home to Yours

Leslie Richman, July 15, 2009

This book is wonderful! It's got that upscale food appeal while offering really accessible and homey recipes. Dorie Greenspan is a great storyteller as well. I can personally vouch for the fact that the Chocolate Chocolate Chunk Muffin recipe is magical!

Learning to Love You More by Harrell Fletcher and Miranda July
Learning to Love You More

Leslie Richman, June 9, 2009

Do yourself a favor and get a copy of this book to enjoy over and over. The Learning To Love You More website, a project of Miranda July and company, is now closed for submissions. This print version includes a sampling of the assignments from people all over the world...from photographing strangers holding hands to writing your life story in one day. The LTLYM project can be truly life changing to read about and look at.
