1.		The Wordy Shipmates from Riverhead Hardcover Price: $17.13 Customer Review: It could just be me, but I just feel like Sarah is a little too self-aware of her role in the media, and that she's trying too hard to be the person she thinks we're expecting her to be. The book is well-written and researched, as I have come to expect from her works. I just got tired of the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Partly Cloudy Patriot from Simon & Schuster Price: $10.40 Customer Review: That's the book I'm describing in my review title above, though it could apply to Sarah Vowell herself. This collection of essays is the best kind of historical musing; Sarah ties in the past with the present, and weaves her own biographical comedy around it all. Not only is this book... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Take the Cannoli : Stories From the New World from Simon & Schuster Price: $11.20 Customer Review: Vowell's book is definately a clever and witty delivery of truth. Some of it is her own truth through life experience. Even if you don't share her opinions, you understand her point without feeling like you are sacrificing your own. She makes you think, laugh and enjoy yourself with introspection... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		When You Are Engulfed in Flames from Little, Brown and Company Price: $17.15 Customer Review: David Sedaris is a talented writer, but his work in this tome is inconsistent. It all goes down smoothly, but never rises to the level of "Dress Your Children in Denim and Corduroy." Each of these short essays was previously published elsewhere and they don't quite come together as an anthology.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		The Areas of My Expertise from Dutton Adult Price: $5.99 Customer Review: It is a strange creativity to compose a list of 700 hobo names. Number 424, Illinois Obama, demonstrates genius.	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Don't Get Too Comfortable: The Indignities of Coach Class, The Torments of Low Thread Count, The Never- Ending Quest for Artisanal Olive Oil, and Other First World Problems from Broadway Price: $10.36 Customer Review: David Rakoff's collection of short essays is an enjoyable romp through various adventures in modern America and Europe. He skewers everyone he meets, including himself. If you like David Sedaris style humor, you will enjoy this book!	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Radio On: A Listener's Diary from St. Martin's Griffin Price: $11.16 Customer Review: Here's the long and short of it: Sarah Vowell is a whiney bore, a genius of the obvious who makes it very easy for folks to make fun of the entire NPR culture.

8.		I Was Told There'd Be Cake from Riverhead Trade Price: $11.20 Customer Review: Some of you actually liked this book? It was my first time reading essays and might just be the last... I had to force myself to finish this book becase i had hope that I would find something more entertaining. I finished it and ive never been more dissapointed although it did make me wanna say: "I... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		More Information Than You Require from Dutton Adult Price: $16.50 Customer Review: Though I felt the first two thirds of this book were much better than the last, I still recommend this one for lovers of satire and humor. Anyone who laughs at John Hodgman's lovable diatribes on The Daily Show or enjoy his Mac commercials should pick this one up. I found myself laughing out loud at... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Me Talk Pretty One Day from Back Bay Books Price: $10.19 Customer Review: This is Sedaris' best collection of short stories/memoirs/autobiographies. His writing is wonderful, in part because it's hard to separate fact from fiction. He has a true gift for writing. My favorite story is the title one but all are great. These stories are great to read all at once or one at a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
