Not a Day Goes By, by E. Lynn Harris (Anchor). "You cannot put it down. He is a phenomenal writer, and the message of the book— you will find happiness if you follow your heart, and by conforming you will be unhappy—really spoke to me. I went out and bought 25 copies for my friends and family."

JOSHUA REDMAN musician

A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, by Dave Eggers (Vintage). "For all its irony, sophistication, and literary gamesmanship, this is a genuinely moving book."

BUZZ ALDRINchairman, ShareSpace Foundation

Duty First: West Point and the Making of American Leaders, by Ed Ruggero (HarperCollins). 'It's a factual and emotional guided tour through the jarring, overwhelming, and inspiring school that produces our country's leaders in and out of uniform. It's truly an intense read!”

ALLISON ANDERSdirector, Things Behind the Sun

Timeless Flight: The Definitive Biography of the Byrds, by Johnny Rogan (Scorpion/Dark Star). "When I hit 40, rock bios replaced self-help and spiritual boob for me. Rogan has an amazing way of showing the rifts among band members and yet leaves you loving the band and their music even more."
