Wood Nymph Seeks Centaur: A Mythological Dating Guide |
Laura sent me this for holiday 2010; it uses mythological references to draw up "types" of people and discusses dating advice for their pairings. I got it because I like the author's writing style, not because I wanted dating advice. :) |

The Artist's Way |
I bought this at a used store mostly so I could have it in my collection to lend out. I don't need help with my creativity so I have never taken the advice in the book, but I've heard the exercises have helped many people who want to be creative, and I'm very interested in helping people do so since I know how important it is to my self-esteem that I get to be creative. |

Creative Visualization |
Mike got this for me at the library book sale, because I asked him to pick it up if he saw it. It seems intriguing, if only for the effect it's had on its readers. |

The Book for People Who Do Too Much |
I do too much, so I had to buy this for myself, I couldn't not. It has pictures of animals looking like they do too much and engaging in the suggestions from the book. |

Sexual Etiquette 101 . . . and More |
Jokingly given by my mother to my boyfriend when we were in high school. Scary. |

Ubersleep |
I bought this self-published print-on-demand-type book because I was once a hardcore polyphasic sleeper and continue to be an unconventional sleeper, and I like having a reference. |
