    when your lover is a liar, that is another good one. I will go through my list of ones I have read. Of course toxic guilt is better.

    Ugh!!! They didn’t have Toxic Guilt listed! She asked if it could be Escaping Toxic Guilt? If so, she has to order it anyway so I told her I wanted to check with you (Flo) on the name! Also, didn’t have Intimacy Anorexia either! Boo!

    Hi SL,
    I’m not into reading SA or self help books anymore but I have a few favorites otherwise if you are interested:

    *The Glass Castle (so good, its a fast read and I don’t usually read fast)

    *Open its the autobiography written by Andre Aggessi, (its so well written and hes a very interesting person esp his childhood, I was truly surprised how great it was)

    In the Sanctuary of Outcast: A memoir by Neil White ( this book was a facinating read, this man goes to prison for a white collar crime, and the prison also is home to the last leprosy colony in the United States. He gets to know these people and learns so much from them and himself. Is a true story and an excellent read.

    PS. * Both these were #1 New York Times best sellers

    yes, thank you Nap! I am not a picky reader and enjoy all kinds of books! I actually meant to get the Glass Castle! I saw where you girls were discussing on another thread! I didn’t read the posts because I knew I wanted to get the book! Dang it! Wish I would have remembered! I will definitely be going back though! Really need to look into a kindle (sp?) or nook….. With how much I love to read, I can see where one would come in handy! Thanks to you and Flora for your input! I hope to hear from the others as well. I am looking forward to a book filled summer!! 🙂

    Hi Silver, it is escaping toxic guilt.
    I do all my orders through amazon. They are typically cheaper in price and with a $25 order shipping is free. I still have not checked my book list yet, but will do it probably over the weekend.

    I bought Emotional Blackmail, Getting Unstuck, and The New Codependency. I know how everyone feels about the codependent thing, but I actually think I have “some” of those issues. The book looks interesting, anyway. Will post my reviews as I get them read. Thanks, again!

    Deceived by Claudia Black ~ it really struck a chord with me. I am going to have to read it again because at times it was so emotional I had to put it down for a while. I’m stronger now and can get through it, I think! It does talk about the co- thing, but that doesn’t ring true to me so I take it with a grain of salt.

    Going to start He’s gone your back next. Any other suggestions?
