Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
This is a fantasy of the future that sheds a blazing critical light on the present. It is a prophetic voice that remains surprisingly contemporary, both in its particular forecasts and in its general tone of semiserious alarm.

The Tenth Door By Michele Hebert
Michele Hebert recounts the stunning story of her spiritual training with legendary yoga master Walt Baptiste. Journeying with her, you are transported from San Francisco through a year-long stint of near solitude in the jungles of El Salvador, as the country moves from seeming tranquility to revolution. In this exotic venue, she comes face to face with challenges that test her devotion, her carefully cultivated yoga discipline, and even her earthly existence.
This unexpectedly humorous and intimate story transcends the world of physical yoga and explores its deep, ancient mysteries. The lessons that she learns from Walt Baptiste's brilliant but often unorthodox methods are at the heart of her memoir, which illuminates timeless teachings and authentic practices in a tale that is as accessible as it is captivating.

How To Get What You Want and Want What You Get by Joel Gray
This book presents a brilliantly innovative program for achieving personal success. The wisdom and techniques in these pages enabled me to feel greater joy, love, confidence and peace. I learned:
*Your experience of the world reflects your inner state.
*When you aren't getting what you need, you are always looking in the wrong direction.
*Find your soul's desire and start getting everything that you want.
*Material success can only make you happy if you are already happy.
*The power to get what you want comes from confidence, positive feeling and desire.
*You have the power to change. No one can do it for you.
YOU HAVE TO WORK AT CREATING THE LIFE THAT YOU WANT!!!!!

I really did not like the book. It made the author seem rather useless.

The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein
This is the perfect book for anyone who knows that compassion isn't only for humans and that the relationship between two souls who are meant for each other never really comes to an end. (Enzo, Denny, Zoe, Eve).
The book is perfect, a dog who speaks and thinks and is a philosopher, the thrill of competitive racing, a meditation on humility and hope in the face of despair.
