'Sweet Season' by Austin Murphy. This was an excellent read! Not only was it a refreshing take on true student athletes today, the author spoke beautifully on reconnecting with his family and his spiritual sense of purpose. This is not only for sports fans, but for all of us who have wanted to drop our jobs and get "away" from it all. This is an exceptional book from an exceptional author.
'Happy Birthday or Whatever' by Annie Choi. I don't usually go for the memoir stuff, or the biographies, or the personal histories. But the humor, entertainment value, and overall charm of this book made it a must-read after the first few pages. In fact, just read the first couple of pages' description of the author's ultimate fantasy birthday party and you will know you're in for a good time... and it just gets better. The refreshing part is, the author doesn't have good stories about her life because she was beaten as a child, burned by cigarettes, or migrated between halfway homes and prison. She led, by many accounts, a reasonably normal life. This book is a joy to read. It is side splitting funny, and not dull for one second.
