enJOY it by Elise Blaha Cripe

book report.

A few days ago, I posted about few books I had recently ordered from Amazon. Here are my thoughts now that they have been devoured :

Domino : Totally inspiring. My one complaint would be that there are not sources for the items shown - makes sense, stock in stores changes - but it's a bummer when you really want something pictured.

No Impact Man : Also inspiring. Overwhelming too. A great read though.

Creative Inc. : Good. For the type of stuff I do (etsy shop much more than freelance) I found the sister book, Craft, Inc., to be more up my alley though. My favorite part of both books were the interviews with professionals in the field. I wish there was more of that in general on the internet & books. I love learning about people who have made it in non-traditional jobs.

On the fiction side of things, I just finished Moloka'i (thanks, Michelle). It was great and at the risk of sounding like a book jacket, a very moving tale of love and endurance. I cried for at least the last 20 pages out of happiness. Perfect weekend read.
