  $4.95 Loved this book as a podcast when I first heard it. Its a gentle, mellow coming of age story set in a merchant ship in the future. No space battles or military which is quite a change of pace for me, but it was surprisingly fun to read. *ok....i don't know why I can't get linkmaker 1.0 to work anymore * |

(^ I think you were picking up the "link location" instead of the "image location" for the picture.)
Thanks for the find, Chad.

  Full disclosure - it's $1.99 on Amazon. You can get it free here in his experiment testing whether free downloads cannibalize sales: http://jakonrath.blogspot.com/2010/05/steal-this-ebook.htmlI ended up buying it - I've got all the Jack Daniels series on my Kindle (LOVE them!), so figured this belongs there too (especially since both my girls will read them on their Kindles too). You can also pre-order the newest Jack Daniels that comes out in October for just $2.99 and DRM-free!   As you scroll down on his blog, on the right you'll see links to where you can download some of his early books free. Not only does he write terrific books, he's a huge proponent of e-books. |

  On Killing: The Psychological Cost of Learning to Kill in War and Society, Lt. Col. Dave Grossman $4.05 Nothing like a specialized book! I am skipping this one, but it may be a great prize to someone. |

If you're going to read the Jack Daniels series, they're best read in order - things happen that have consequences/implications, etc in the following books. The first one is Whiskey Sour. Jack Daniels 1. Whiskey Sour (2004) 2. Bloody Mary (2005) 3. Rusty Nail (2006) 4. Dirty Martini (2007) 5. Fuzzy Navel (2008) 6. Cherry Bomb (2009) 7. Shaken (2011) |

Obese From The Heart: A Fat Psychiatrist Discloses (Kindle Edition) by Sara L. Stein $1.98 I paid full price for this back in November. Well worth it. Note: She doesn't have any answers, it's not a diet book! It's more about the emotional side of things. Very interesting.   (and no, I don't know her or any of her friends or anything, just saw it was on sale when I went to write my review and thought I'd post it) |

I really enjoyed The Restaurant by George Becker. It's a marvelous nostagic trip down memory lane to the author's childhood in the Bronx in the 1940s. It's only $0.99 for the Kindle. It's a nice short read, only about two hours for me.  |
