I picked this for the book club I am hosting this month. My ratings typically go something like this: 5 is outstanding, out of this world; 4 is really, really, really good; 3 is kind of good and solid; 2 is just okay; 1 is pretty bad. Ideally, I'd give this a 2.5 if I could. In some ways, it was a 3--good and solid and an interesting concept that will evoke lively discussion at this month's book club. I was continually distracted, however, by just how much gratuitous sex, drug use, and a sense of overall crassness there was in the book, which brings my rating down. I don't know if it was the book's fault or the way it was marketed ("someone else slaps someone else's child at a suburban barbecue...", but the suburbanites in the book were far from any I know. Maybe I'm prudish, but was it really necessary that pretty much every single person was screwing around on their spouse and snorting lines of cocaine at the family BBQ. Really? And the constant use of a particular "C" word--is this an Australian/British thing or what? It almost seemed like the author overused it in the same way that a six-year-old overuses the word "fart" in order to get a reaction from his peers. Anyway, it was a solid book on its face, but got bogged down in what I mentioned above...

Getting in the news? That isn’t in and of itself a problem. I See Your Name Everywhere: Leverage the Power of the Media to Grow Your Fame, Wealth and Success by Pam Lontos and Andrea Brunais can go a long way to getting you there. These two authors prove that they are very well versed industry professionals who take us by the hands and show us how to get in print. There are massive amounts of media out there both offline and online that need a constant flow of news. The issue is how to get them to take notice of you. This is the cornerstone of I See Your Name Everywhere. Pam and Andrea start out by explaining exactly what is in the mind of reporters and bloggers who want fresh sources for the news. The authors describe what editors, reporters and in some cases bloggers, go through each day in weeding out the wheat from the chaff in figuring out what their readers would like to see. In many cases this means more than a phone call but also even the whole news story. And this book shows what the spin should be. I See Your Name Everywhere is full of helpful tips and pointers about getting noticed but I was very happy to see Pam Lontos and Andrea Brunais covering the cardinal rule of press releases: Make the story about the reader and not about the writer. This has worked for me so well in the past and has vastly increased my own exposure in the media. The authors also rightfully spend time devoted to the importance of getting the message out to bloggers on the internet. If the news media picks up your story it is only a matter of time before these people get interested. As such you would want them on your side and in your camp when they write about you. They need an open channel to you and you should offer it to them first. They also were quite open about other more “stealth” ways to get in the news such as OpEds, letters to the editor, calendar event entries, etc. All of these are really overlooked methods of getting your name out there. On top of that the authors warn against ignoring smaller publications and industry publications at your own peril and sighted several cases where these media outlets led to national and international recognition. I personally have started to use many of the tricks learned in this book. I also have been around enough to know that this is not a quick fix. Promoting yourself takes time. The authors themselves say it takes seeing a name seven times or more to build brand recognition with most people. The point is to follow their advice. Come up with a plan and stick with it. I have read loads of books on the PR subject, but I must say that I See Your Name Everywhere: Leverage the Power of the Media to Grow Your Fame, Wealth and Success by Pam Lontos and Andrea Brunais was one of the most enjoyable instruction books that I have read in a long time.

A wonderful children's book about a girl who had her choice to take either a porcelain figure, a clock, or a shovel on her voyage to America. The book traces her life through the use of that shovel. Made me a little teary-eyed reading it.

This could have used a 50 page edit, but was interesting enough to keep my interest.

This little book is an add-on to Pullman's His Dark Materials series. The presentation is fantastic, and in the same style as Lyra's Oxford. It is a very small hardcover, about 100 pages long, with beautiful woodblock illustrations. It has a bunch of extra goodies inside: a shipping manifest, some notes between Lyra and her professors, a newspaper article. Instead of the fold-out map from Lyra's Oxford, there is a cool little fold-out boardgame featuring hot-air ballooners traveling to the north pole. The main difference between Once Upon a Time in the North and Lyra's Oxford, however, is that this book has a very compelling story. It features Lee Scoresby the aeronaut and Iorek Byrnison the armored bear decades before either meets Lyra. It's a good little yarn, full of action and adventure. It didn't take long to read it, especially since I wasn't able to put it down once I started. I'm a little sorry that I got it from the library instead of buying it. I don't want to return it.

If you like the Stephanie Plum books (by Evanovich) you will like this writer.

At long last, I read this and it was great! We listened to this on our way to/from Chicago on a road trip which made it extra special. The audiobook narrator (Scott Brick) is particularly awesome. There was some random side story that didn't seem to tie-in which was rather distracting, but otherwise a very tight and well-researched book.
