A typical lovestory of New York City .......2007-02-25
I didn't know Katherine Lanpher, I simply read the book because I love New York. I had no idea she was connected to Liberalism or any of the other -isms that disgust men in general. Her experiences were typical of first-time New Yorkers and the culture shock they endure. Her style is simple yet poignant, and it really picks up halfway with her chapter on feminism ("That Girl") and how she struggled finding her way in the world of journalism.
I'm always looking for a book like this. .......2006-11-25
I was drawn to this book by its premise--a mid-life move to New York--expecting witty fish-out-of-water anecdotes, and, yes, Ms. Lanpher delivered. But what I also got was a beautifully written, thoughtful, compelling memoir, insightful, funny (yet poignant), foody, and self-deprecating. I really loved this book and have been recommending it to all my friends.
Heartwarming, Interesting, Enjoyable..........2006-11-21
Easy to identify with many feelings expressed by this author. Interesting adventures. I recommend this book as a quick read that leaves you thoughtful. Thoroughly enjoyable throughout.
Funny, insightful, unexpectedly moving.......2006-11-13
I loved this book. I picked it up, intending to read only a chapter or two that night, and couldn't put it down. It's a collection of essays that reads as a whole memoir, and the themes that keep recurring throughout - loneliness, a mid-life move, learning one's way in a new world - are made deeper and more resonant by the constancy of love and humor in Lanpher's life. This is a woman determined to live life to the fullest, and every few pages an unexpected small detail or description or insight made me press the book to my heart and think, "Yes. Thank you for articulating that for me." Five stars!
An interesting memoir.......2006-11-10
After spending her entire life in the Midwest, Katherine Lanpher decided to make a clean break and move to New York City to host a radio show with Al Franken. Lanpher had already made a name for herself hosting her own show in Minnesota, where she had built an active--if not completely fulfilling--life with close friends and a husband married to the theatre. Ready to start anew after her divorce, Lanpher was understandably reluctant to leave her home, but she was tempted by the idea of a national radio program and a new life in glamorous New York.
Lanpher moved to New York on leap day and makes good use of the metaphor by starting the first chapter with her trapeze lessons, another example of her attempts to open herself up to new things, no matter how scary they may be. Throughout the book, Lanpher describes her initiation into big city life: hailing and keeping a cab, cooking for one, befriending the local butcher. Her writing is candid, and she expresses an emptiness that anyone who has ever left home can understand.
In addition to her homesickness, Lanpher finds herself feeling remarkably insecure around the gaggles of young, beautiful women on every street corner. Both of these feelings Lanpher leave her wondering if she can ever fit in. Fortunately, she has a few friends to keep her connected to the frantic world around her, each one willing to dole out advice.
But Leap Days isn't just about Lanpher's life in New York. It's also about the things that have made her the person she is today: the strength and love of her parents, the sudden death of her brother, the struggle to be a serious journalist when men controlled the field, the end of a marriage but subsequential rebirth of a lifelong friendship. Lanpher examines her life thus far, accepting both the good and the bad of what got her there. And then she considers where she is going, knowing only that she has gotten closer to becoming a New Yorker and farther from the life she left behind.
Armchair Interviews says: Good story of a Midwesterner's move to NYC!

< I want a pet too! >.......2005-07-11
I love this book, especially when I want a pet meself. My parents are the same as Abby's, they won't let you do anything! I love the part where Abby sneak T-Jeff in to the house,(Her cat.) I was sooooooo excited that I didn't even heard my mother calling me for dinner!
I'm the biggest fan of Abby and Anne Mazer. When I saw one of Abby's books that I haven't got, I'll beg my parents for it! Anne Mazer's books is like collecting the whole world's idea then make it in to a book. And this one has the most of it.
awesome.......2005-03-07
cool book, the only problem is it's a quick read, and $5 is kinda pricy or 30 min. of reading.
The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes - Look Before You Leap.......2004-10-12
I thought this book was fun to read. I enjoyed it.
Abby Hayes is this cute red-haired girl/ In this story she made me laugh alot. She finished school in June, and during the summer vacation Abby was bored and she was thinking about asking her parents to get her a pet. She was thinking of getting a bunch of weird pets like an elephant, a frog, a horse, a cow, a rabbit and other animals. She finally decided on a pet,and went to her parents to ask if they could buy her a pet. Her parents didn't feel she was responsible, so she had to prove herself to them. She baby-sat for her twin brothers, and did lots of chores around the house. Finally, her parents decided she proved herself and got her a kitten.

Leap Day by Wendy Mass.......2007-04-23
Leap Day is a book about a a girl named Josie who is turning 16 years old, but she has her birthday on February 29th which is "Leap Day",but her official birthday only comes only once every four years so she tell people that its her fourth birthday. In the book she has friends all around the world that she talks to that also has a birthday on leap day, and every year they give each over weird gifts to each other.Also Josieloves to act so she is trying out for her school play "Romeo and Juliet" and goes and trys for her driving test to get her license.And she also has has her three best friends Megan, Zoey and Katy and they throw her a 16th birthday at the lake.
My favorite part of the book Leap Day is when her and her friends go on a scavenger hunt. I like this part of the book the best because I thoght it was the most intresting and I could't put the book down because i wanted to see what happended next and see if they are going to win. Also when they have to get a teachers clothing i thought its was pretty funny when Katy goes upstairs and steals there teachers clothing in there house.Thats why I think it is the best part of the book, when they all go on the scavenger hunt.
This book is one of my favorite books i've read i read the book twice because I liked it so much and I will probably read it again too.So yes, I do recommend this book to others because I like how after each chapter they show he other thoughts and opinoins.I liked the book how it was set up lke that i think other books should be like that because then you will no what others really are thinking and how you would not think that they are really thinking that.So that is why I recommend this book to others.
Awesome novel.......2007-03-30
Leap Day, a follow-up to Wendy Mass' A Mango-Shaped Place, is equally as fun and unique as its predecessor. Leap Day follows Josie on her 16th birthdy, but since she was born on 2/29, it's only the fourth time she has celebrated her birthday on the actual day she was born. This book's unique format is such a cool idea - Josie narrates through her day for one chapter, and after that, the chapter rewinds and goes again, this time from the perspective of all the other characters in the chapter. It's so interesting to see who Josie understands and who she doesn't, and how many assumptions everyone makes of everyone else. Josie is a prism, viewed by different people from a different side, and then we also get her own perspective on herself as she goes through her day at school, takes her driver's license test, goes on a scavenger hunt, and undergoes the secret rites of all 16 year old Orlando teens at a mysterious lake. This book is so fun and different from any other YA novel I've read, and is easily appropriate for middle school and up but will still keep their attention. Wendy Mass is a sure bet.
leap day!!!!!!.......2006-12-14
In the book leap day by Wendy Mass the main character is Josie Taylor. Leap day the title, goes along with the book because Josie is born on leap day, February 29. So it is only her forth birthday when she is actually turning 16 years old. In this book there are many conflicts that arise in this book one of the conflicts is Josie and taking her driver licenses test. Another conflict is she is trying out for the play the role is Juliet and her crush is trying out for the same play. She has three close friends Katy, Zoey, Megan. She thinks that her friend Megan is hiding some big secret from her. Meanwhile all this is happening Josie's friends are planning a sweet sixteen party for her at the lake.
I really enjoyed reading this book! This book is very interesting to read because it gives all the view points on the characters not just Josie's view point. At some parts of the book it is kind of boring but most of the story it pull's you into the story and made you think and read more of it. I recommended the book leap day to everyone I just think it is a fabulous book and everyone should read it!

A Great Book For Teen Girls.......2006-11-10
If you like books about real life situations, this would be a great book for you to read. Leap Day, by Wendy Mass, is about a teenager named Josie Taylor. On Josie's fourth birthday, she is turning sixteen years old. It might seem strange, but her birthday is on February 29, leap day. One of the problems Josie faces is getting her drivers license, since she is turning sixteen. She is trying out for the school play, Romeo and Juliet. She has a huge crush on an older guy named Grant, and he is trying out for the same play as Josie. She thinks one of her friends, Megan, has an eating disorder, and has a big secret that she wont tell Josie, or anyone else. Also her friend Zoey has an accident with self tanner. Then a group of her friends, Megan, Zoey and Katy, are all doing the sophomore scavenger hunt. Josie's friends are also planning a birthday party, or sweet sixteen initiation at the lake. Josie also has to deal with her brothers girlfriend breaking up with him, and a girl at school getting pregnant. I really liked how this book can relate to your life.
The author of Leap Day, Wendy Mass, writes this book in a really different way. After saying what is going on in Josie's life, she tells the different view points of the other characters. I thought it was very interesting to hear the other characters views other than Josie's, on the same subjects. After telling the other view points, sometimes she tells what is going to happen to them in the future. I would recommend reading this if you are looking for a great book to read.

The wonders of biology meet the mysteries of Mormonism in Terry Tempest Williams's spiritual evocation of Hieronymus Bosch's El Jardin de las Delicias. Williams is mesmerized by the painting, and there is much to be fascinated by, including her own stream-of-consciousness exploration of its images and symbolism.
The Garden of Earthly Delights, as it's known in English, is part of a triptych, surrounded by wings of paradise and hell. Williams visits the painting daily in the Prado Museum in Madrid, reveling in the gestalt and concentrating on the nuances in the elaborate and extraordinarily detailed masterpiece. One day she'll devote hours inspecting the cavorting, joyous figures, "the blue pool of bathers standing thigh-high in the middle of the triptych," the cherries "flying in the air, dangling from the poles, dropped into the mouths of lovers." Another day she's there with binoculars, cataloguing the birds Bosch chose to place in the garden of earthly delights (she finds 35 of them, including the gadwall, the wagtail, the great white egret, and Tengmalm's owl--a bird who sings "poo-poo-poo," which she considers a bit of prime Bosch paradise humor). Her insight, however, is not limited to the painting. She looks inward and outward, her probing artistic analysis inspiring childhood memories, worldly observations, and universal questions about love and faith.
Williams's leap into Bosch's garden is an unusual blend of academic rigor and unfettered artistic license, studying the painter's world with erudite discipline, then soaring into lyric associations that'll charm your poetic soul or curdle your objective sensibilities, depending on the latitude you grant in works that mix art history with personal memoir and spiritual exploration. --Stephanie Gold

Customer Reviews:
Well written prose going nowhere.......2006-04-29
Terry Tempest Williams has a lovely writing style, and she needs it to pull off the extreme abstractions she writes about. I couldn't finish the book because the subject was way too contemplative. It is only engaging because of her amazing ability to compose one beautiful sentence after another, a work of art in itself.
If you enjoy going places deep in your mind, you may enjoy this book. I thought that was me, but it kept me wondering--is this going anywhere? After a while it was just tiresome.
I'm new to the Mormon Church.......2005-07-11
and this book has imspired me so much - What a wonderful depiction of eternal life or in other words - the eternal struggle - lived in modern times by a modern woman
Mormons, painters, and Hell: Oh MY!.......2003-10-03
Terry Tempest Williams is first and foremost a naturalist. I say this not out of some secret biological knowledge of her, but simply as an extrapolation from her own writings. In her book REFUGE, she focuses on birds and the wild life preserve around the Great Salt Lake. The personal life bleeds out of the story of the natural in a way as to make the two seamless... and they are. In LEAP, Williams focuses her attention on the great triptych by Heronymous Bosch (El Bosco) - 'The Garden of Delights'. The triptych represents the three states of human (animal) existence as dictated by early Christian doctrine: Eden, Earth, and Hell. In each, human forms are involved - with an assortment of nearly unrecognizable creatures - in all manner of lewd, sensate, or holy activities. The painting perhaps is - for a naturalist like Williams - an unignorable bridge to a sort of philosophical incantation of one's own personal life.
Though the book is told in four distinct parts, there is little cohesion. Each of the first holds some resemblance to the corresponding frame of the triptych it is supposed to represent, but not effectively enough to be truly meaningful. Essentially, I detected three distinct modes of writing scattered unpredictably throughout the book: an anecdotal style dedicated to Bosch and 'el Prado' (the museum in which it is housed) related activities, confessionals of the author's past and experiences, and an unexpurgated glut of rambling free-style writing that I guess is supposed to be philosophical or poetic, but is just sophomoric. It isn't difficult to find TTW's strengths. When speaking of nature - real nature, not the nature of the painting - her talents soar. Sadly, these moments are few and far between. The anecdotes of both TTW's life and others around her are fun, but not really enough to warrant more than a quick aside. The bulk of the book is in fact made up of those aforementioned stream-of-consciousness writing exercises that read like a teenagers angst-ridden journal more than the thoughtful prose of a serious adult writer. While Williams' attempts here are magnificent... she gets an A+ on concept (and what a truly excellent concept) the book fails in her lack of confidence. There is a clear insecurity here. TTW is best when at her calmest, but she wants to beef it all up, to be a serious writer, a stirring writer, a philosophical and educated writer; she so desperately wants everyone to be wowed by what she is saying that the result is a bunch of nonsense that doesn't amount to anything. With all said and done, there is no revelation about the painting, no revelation about Mrs. Williams and her relationships: to her father, her husband, and her religion (Mormon), and no real revelation about what we are supposed to think about all this writing. It all ads up to a boring bit of artistic voyeurism.
Listen.......2000-08-11
You need not being a devoted fan of Terry Tempest Williams or Bosch, but you must abandon all thoughts of literary "tradition" while you read this. She's breaking tradition, linear thought, and countless other rules we associate with great writing. But if you open yourself--there is pure brilliance behind those pages. Passion behind her words.
Leap places a powerful grip on the reader as Williams takes you through the panels of the triptic, through her life and the life of the painting. What does it mean to surrender to your passions? An inquisitive look at at painting that will turn you inside out, take you in circles, through heaven and hell and somewhere along the way, you'll find restoration.
Intensely fascinating........2000-08-02
When do we ever take the time to stop and smell the roses, or to indulge our obsessions, or to give our inner voice the time it deserves? This author did all those things, and then went a step further in getting her observations and insights down. She's a smart and introspective writer and my mind is whirling from her journey with the painting. This is a risky book... she admits we may find her crazy, and I did at times. But being in her wild, cerebral, artistic zone was not boring or banal... this book is not a superficial beach read. It made me want to look harder and deeper at the world around me and to listen with attentive ears. Bravo! Bravo!

Excellent read and easy to follow!.......2007-04-12
Wilcox is a great writer! I enjoyed so much the different "sayings" that were the foundation of each chapter. I find my self often saying "Don't go to Caiaphas' Palace." This is a must read, if you have time to spare and want to be uplifted!
Great Book!!.......2006-08-15
"Don't Leap with the Sheep" has provided my life great insight into the world of Satan. Wilcox uses short chapters to highlight each of Satan's snares that can be easily missed in day-to-day life. This book has helped me to teach young kids with stories and scriptures. Wilcox uses fantastic personal stories and scripture stories to teach about Satan's snares and how to avoid them.
I highly recommend this book to all.

Day trading. It's fast, it's furious - and, without the right knowledge, it can be fatal to your finances.
The lure of making a living—maybe even a fortune - is beckoning thousands of online investor novices into the treacherous realm of day trading. Sadly, many of these fortune hunters are in for a rude - and expensive - awakening, because day trading is not for dilettantes. In fact, more than 80% and perhaps 90% of inexperienced day traders lose their shirts!
DAY TRADING ON THE EDGE takes a penetrating look at this radical investing technique - both the good and the bad - and gives readers all the information they need to determine if the day-trading roller coaster is right for them. Packed with practical advice, realistic viewpoints and keen insights, this book explains:
what day trading is all about and its long history*the ten steps to selecting a day trading firm* trading at-home vs. at a trading firm*where to obtain the education necessary to succeed*critical money management principles*tax tips for traders to retain their wealth*results of an indepth never-before published survey of over 200 day traders, and more.
DAY TRADING ON THE EDGE also interviews eleven seasoned traders for their trading insights and the heads of half a dozen trading firms, provides two expert viewpoints on the importance of the psychology of trading, delineates the latest findings of the regulators on the day trading industry, and peers into the future of the day trading phenomenon.

Not Very Useful, But Has Some Insights.......2005-05-17
As others have said, this book really doesn't tell you anything about trading. Instead, it focuses more on what kind of person would make a good trader. It reminds me of the articles about different professions my high school guidance counselor gave me when I was a kid.
There are many contributing writers to this book, which is a bit confusing since the cover only mentions Leslie Masonson. It appears he was basically the editor of the book, who also wrote a few chapters. He conducted a survey, and published the results, which is worthwhile, and could be interesting to prospective traders.
I found Chapter 11 on tax evasion (er, I mean planning) by Ted Tesser to be written poorly. I haven't read something so repetitive since Wade B. Cook's "Wall Street Money Machine". Tesser has a few ideas (which may be good, who knows), which he repeats (often in bullet form) over and over again. I couldn't imagine buying Tesser's book which he plugs in that chapter. Just hire a tax attorney... might cost more up front, but the at least you won't be wasting your time.
The last few chapters contain interviews with many different traders. Masonson plugs each of their websites (about half of which are out of business as of May 2005). Some of these traders seemed to have intelligent advice, others seemed to barely know what they are doing themselves.
In summary, I found this to be another run of the mill book on trading. Like so many books on the subject, you feel like the main goal of the book was to promote other businesses offered by the writers. I suggest if you still want to read it, you do as I did, and borrow it from your local library rather than waste your $$.
One of the dozen.......2003-02-15
If you want to be successful in this field. You probably need minimum a dozen books for perodically refreshing your mind. Just like you need a minimum 12 stocks to achieve the diversification.
This one will do the job. I doubt you have the time to go over all the books ever published in this field.
I have heard the importance of money management in every of the hundreds book I have read in the past few years. I believe it is true. But this is the only book finally push me to the immediate action. After I spent whole afternoon do a experiment try to veryfy the statement on Percentage of Risk on page 184. I only did 33 tosses instead 100 tosses.
I also believe day trading is hard. But just as the old adge "you will not shed the tears until you see the coffin." This book will do the trick. This book give you some of the other side truth.
This the second time I read this book. Both time by borrowing it from local library. Now I am going to buy one for keep. Even though not every chapter is to my liking.
Great overview/introduction.........2002-02-18
I have been looking into trading in general for the last 2 months or so. I strongly believe this should be one of the first books to be read.
Why such a strong recommendation/endorsement ?? Because of a very interesting survey and discussion about the success rates of day traders and their age profile for example. How much money did aspiring day traders make during the first 6 months ?? And so on ..
So it is a strong overview of the industry. It is available in the local library for me. If it weren't I wouldn't have bought it because some of the reviews on this forum were so negative. But I did read it. It is a great source of information ..
Some interesting tidbits........2001-12-10
This was a fun book to read if you like trading books in general. There are some good points on system selection (almost too much), tax tips and an interesting section on Psychology. The interviews with traders are very general and do not contain any information on strategy of the traders. Had the interviews contained more strategy and less chit chat, this would be an excellent selection. As is however, just so so..
do not buy this book.......2001-05-11
If ever I have bought a worthless piece of #### this is it. This man has absolutely nothing useful, except to warn you time and again not to be a day trader. He repeats the same very basic concepts in all the beginning chapters. I learned nothing useful except a ton of webpages and daytrading courses offered by the daytraders who he interviewed complete with thier 800 numbers....A real waste of ... I kid you not.
