Though I was never able to watch his comedy as a kid, I do remember my dad laughing hysterically to the humor of the legendary George Carlin. And now that I'm an adult, I can see why he was laughing. This Father's Day, give your dad a good laugh with Three Times Carlin: An Orgy of George. It features three of his books in one complete volume: When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?,... more
eReaders
This Father's Day, bring your dad into the 21st century by giving him an eReader loaded with a few of his favorite books. eReaders are taking over books the same way MP3 players took over music. I was reluctant to make the switch myself, but I have to say, the convenience of being able to pull up a book from any location is pretty nice. This selection of eReaders includes the more popular Nook... more
Audiobooks
To me, there's nothing more relaxing than hitting the open road with a good cup of coffee and a good audiobook. With a busy schedule, sometimes it's the only way I can get caught up on new books. If you're planning a road trip this spring/summer, pick up a new book or even an old classic to listen to. This selection includes a wide selection of audiobooks, including classic literature and even self-help books.... more

Catcher in the Rye
Everyone who has ever read J.D.

Stephen King - Salem's Lot
As soon as the Halloween candy comes out in stores, we consider it time to start scaring ourselves silly. Although many novels have followed, the first book that had us sleeping with the lights on was Stephen King's 'Salem's Lot. It has everything a scary book should - a spooky mansion, monsters (in the form of vampires), and a seemingly undefeatable evil ring leader. Of course, it also has the plucky heroes who try... more

Two, the books' authors were all recipients of Man Booker awards. In honor of International Literacy Day sit down and read one of these prize-winning books. You can be thankful, as you savor the writing, that you are not one of the more than... more
Lemony Snicket: The Trouble Begins Book Set
There's something very satisfying about finishing a book in one sitting. It means the book was really good or very short.

Alan Moore - Watchmen
It's been hard to miss the commercials and other advertising for the Watchmen movie, which premiers March 6th. Go back to the graphic novel by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons and see what you think of the source. It garnered rave reviews in the media, from the New York Times to Rolling Stone, and it's the only graphic novel on Time's list of 100 best English-language books since 1923. Time will tell how the... more
Yann Martel - Life of Pi: A Novel
In countless commutes on the train to and from the office, we've read countless books, magazines, stuff from work, and, when we forget reading material, all the ads and train information. The one and only item that got any comment was Yann Martel's Life of Pi: A Novel, and from more than one person. The general theme was, "Oh, I just read that, isn't it good?" And yes, it is. We won't give the... more
Angle of Repose by Wallace Stegner
If you make an annual resolution to read something more substantial than celebrity gossip magazines (ah, sweet guilty pleasure!), start with this Pulitzer Prize-winning book by Wallace Stegner. Angle of Repose chronicles the lives of an American family through four generations. At 500+ pages, it's hefty enough to make you feel a sense of accomplishment when you finish it, but once you get into it, it's so involving you'll be surprised at how easily... more
Breaking Dawn
Spotted: Breaking Dawn, the much-hyped final book in Stephenie Meyer's bestselling Twilight saga, in the hands of thousands of women and girls dying to know if Bella will marry Edward and finally and permanently join the Cullen family.
