Ian Halperin, author of the sole biography of Laliberté, will be available for media questions during Laliberté’s 12-day mission
Montreal, Tuesday, September 29, 2009 – On September 30, in celebration of his 50th birthday, Guy Laliberté, the billionaire founder of Cirque du Soleil, will blast off into space from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. In doing so, he will officially become Canada’s first space tourist atan estimated personal cost of $35 million. Laliberté's 12-day visit to the International Space Station is his personal “Poetic Social Mission in Space,” whose purpose is to educate people on global water issues. On October 9, while orbiting the Earth, Laliberté will host a special 2-hour “artistic happening,” entitled Moving Stars and Earth for Water, which will be broadcast from 14 cities around the world. This global spectacle is intended to raise world awareness for water conservation. The theme of the show will unfold as Laliberté reads from a specially commissioned story by renowned Canadian novelist and Man-Booker Prize-winner Yann Martel. Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, singers Peter Gabriel and Shakira, actress Salma Hayek, Canadian astronaut Julie Payette, and musical group U2 have already announced their participation in this unprecedented global event.

I have always admired Mark Skousen for his financial and stock market advice. But, now I admire his deeply researched book, "The Big Three in Economics". This should be taught in every high school economics class and at all colleges and universities.

I'm looking for some HenLit; books about mature women who face real-life challenges. I'm sick of reading about women whose biggest decisions involve choosing the right wrinkle filler or buying the right designer bag. Any suggestions?

If you want to give your teenage boys a special adventure they will always remember, try Australian author Christopher J. Holcroft's Scott Morrow trilogy!
The books are aimed at boys aged 11-18 and will take them on a roller coaster ride of adventure, fun and excitement. The first two books, Only The Brave Dare and CANYON are available through Poseidon Books at http://www.poseidonbooks.com/ The third, A Rite Of Passage, will be available late 2009. All three books follow the adventures of Venturer Sout Scott Morrow as he and his Venurers go on a Christmas holiday and mix it with some Russian Mafia hell bent on flooding Australia with heroin. The adventure continues with the setting up of a national rescue organisation run by young adults to save people who have misfortune in the wilds. Lastly, the boys transition to manhood when they try and save a group of Girl Guides stuck on a burning building with a biker war raging all around them. For more information, go to http://www.christopherholcroft.com |

I am really new to this site. To be honest, I largely joined to get some feedback on a website the we created to help people find that next book to read.
The website catalogs over 100,000 books and 125,000 reading lists and allows users to display and print out a list of 100 books related to any book. So, if you’ve just finished a good book, enter it into our search field and the site will display books connected to that book. But, I am worried that just posting a link to the site breaks the Book Lust and Wet Paint anti-spam policy... But I really would like some feedback from other avid readers on how well the site does at recommending other books to read. So, is this an OK thing to post here or is somewhere else more appropriate?

Hi Nancy Pearl,
I love your books and I love listening to your radio shows. I am excited about your new book - Book Crush. I know it's a little bit to late, but I would like to recommend two holocust books for children if you ever decide to do a Book Crush 2. The books are The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak and The Boy in Striped Pajamas by John Boyne. The Book Thief is a wonderful book narrated by an unusual character. The narrator is Death or The Angel of Death. The story deals with an orphaned German girl who learns to read and starts her own library by stealing books. Her love for books helps to keep a young Jewish man alive who lives in her basement. And her love of books helps her German community to survive the nights of bombings in her town. This was an excellent, beautifully written book. The second book The Boy in Striped Pajamas is the story of a nine year old boy who moves to a house down the road from Auswitch. They move there because the boys father is made into the Comadant of the prison. One day the boy goes exploring and he makes friends with a Jewish boy his age. Of course the German boy and the Jewish boy are on oppisite sides of the fence. This book was a quick wonderful read and it has an OH MY GOODNESS, WOW! ending which I will not give away. If you haven't read these or anyone on this site hasn't read these two books, I would highly recommend them. Blessings Ruth

I recently joined my first book club and just started reading next month's selection. However, I'm struggling with the best approach to reading the book, taking notes, and remembering important points. Does anyone have suggestions? Are there tools available to help readers be more efficient? Currently I am highlighting important passages and jotting down notes on a pad of paper, but I'm wondering if there is a better way. I'm sure it varies by reader, but I am just curious what other people are doing.
Thanks for your help!
