Friday Finds (June 18, 2010)

What great books did you hear about / discover this past week?

Browsing at Tattered Cover:

The Upside of Rationality: The Unexpected Benefits of Defying Logic at Work and Home by Dan Ariely
Postcards from a Dead Girl by Kirk Farber
People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn
Food Rules by Michael Pollan

(these last two I've known about for quite a while, but seeing them while browsing put them back in the front of my mind)

From Kristen at Bookworming in the 21st Century
The Lost Children by Carolyn Cohagan

From Puss Reboots:
Veracity by Laura Bynum   (sadly my library doesn't own this one)

From Beth at Library Chicken:
Steering the Craft: Exercises and Discussions on Story Writing for the Lone Navigator or the Mutinous Crew, by Ursula Le Guin

From The Great Awakening by Jim Wallis
Not for Sale: The Return of the Global Slave Trade and How We Can Fight It by David Bastone
