Wool Omnibus Edition

Book of the Week: Wool Omnibus Edition
Hugh Howey (Author)

This Omnibus Edition collects the five Wool books into a single volume. It is for those who arrived late to the party and who wish to save a dollar or two while picking up the same stories in a single package.

The first Wool story was released as a standalone short in July of 2011. Due to reviewer demand, the rest of the story was released over the next six months. This is the story of mankind clawing for survival, of mankind on the edge. The world outside has grown unkind, the view of it limited, talk of it forbidden. But there are always those who hope, who dream. These are the dangerous people, the residents who infect others with their optimism. Their punishment is simple. They are given the very thing they profess to want: They are allowed outside.

How to Be a Real Estate Investor

GBT Featured Book Review: How to Be a Real Estate Investor
Phil Pustejovsky (Author)


Phil Pustejovsky’s How to Be a Real Estate Investor is a great book for the investor wannabe who could not tell you the difference between wholesaling and short sales if their very lives depended on it. Pustejovsky gives readers both beginner and more advanced techniques for venturing into the real estate business in a very readable and entertaining format.

The book starts out with his own story about how he went from living in his truck and eating beans for dinner to making a very fine living orchestrating real estate deals using the methods he outlines in his book.

If you’ve never read a book on real estate investing, Phil Pustejovsky’s How to be a Real Estate Investor is a wonderful place to start. What sets this book apart from others of its ilk is that the author didn’t use his book to push his own real estate plan. Instead, Pustejovsky introduces several ways that the reader can get started in real estate, regardless of whether the reader has cash, credit or neither. Complete novices expecting to learn how to start investing in real estate will not be disappointed as the author holds your hand throughout the book. Even if you’re not a nervous nellie when it comes to starting out in real estate, you’ll come away with a strong, basic foundation that will serve you well in your journey.

Barbara Delinsky’s 1998 bestseller, COAST ROAD, featured a heroine who was a breast cancer survivor. To this day, it is the book that generates more mail than any of her others. That fact, combined with Barbara’s ongoing commitment to breast cancer research, led her to her first book of nonfiction.

Not a medical book — there is no discussion of the pros and cons of a particular treatment or hospital or doctor — UPLIFT is rather a collection of hundreds of pieces of practical and inspiring tidbits collected from survivors and their on everything from what kind of deodorant to use during radiation treatment to the best kinds of exercise aftloved ones. Think of it as “The Girlfriends’ Guide” to breast cancer, with hints on everything from what kind of deodorant to use during radiation treatment to the best kinds of exercise after a mastectomy to how to tell the person you’re most afraid to tell that you have cancer. And as timeless as ever, this newly revised edition of UPLIFT contains the latest and most up-to-the-minute medical information, as well as new stories from inspiring cancer survivors.
