April Selection

Hi All!

JuliAnne and I were at Barnes and Noble on Saturday on settled on the April selection for our book club. The title is The Gift of Fear by Gavin De Becker. It's an incredible book. It's been on Jewelz's list to read for a few months. You may recall that this book was featured on Oprah, but not as a book club selection. Oprah calls him the nation's leading expert on violent behavior. The book is a national bestseller and tells you how to save your own life, that of your spouse and children from violence through survival instincts. "True fear is a gift. Unwarranted fear is a curse. Learn how to tell the difference."

As some of you know, I was recently involved with a boyfriend that took a turn for the crazy. This book tells how to spot that kind of behavior. And spot even subtle signs of danger. So far I'm on chapter 3 and it's really riveting. Even if you've never felt threatened before and that idea is totally foreign to you, this book is STILL worth the read and I highly encourage you to read it. It's already very empowering. And everyone needs to be informed on this subject.

Love,
Sharon
