text: My Thoughts Literally!: Feature & Follow Friday #4
  Bookselling Time: Go to your biggest bookcases. Go to the second shelf from the top and pick out the sixth book from the left. Hardsell that book to us – even if you haven't read it or if you hated it. (if you don't have bookcases, don't have six books on one shelf, etc, pick a book at random) - See more at: http://bookeatereviews.blogspot.com/2013/12/feature-and-follow-friday-3-this-weeks.html#sthash.43RhtZaZ.dpuf
  I'm not usually a huge fan of non-fiction especially ones that border on self-help but this book was great! A friend of mine had recommended I read Gladwell for years and when I finally did I was well, glad (HAHA, had too!). He is enough of a storyteller to keep a book engaging and interesting even though the subject matter can be a little dry. In this book he addresses how little things can make a big difference. He tells us the three rules of epidemics and the three types of people who make things happen. He uses familiar people, topics, and sociological concept to prove his point. There's a chapter on Paul Revere (who I hate), one on the cleanup of the New York subway system, one on syphillus in Baltimore, one of the emergence of penny loafers as a footwear trend, and one on kids shows like Sesame Street and Blues Clues... so something for everyone! I recommend this to anyone who likes non-fiction, is into sales or marketing (I suggest Gladwell revise this to include a chapter about Twitter), or anyone who likes to study psychology. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was pleasantly surprised.

  Tipping Point is a book that I have been meaning to read!
  I don't think I would pick this one since I really don't read non-fictions books much more about self-help ones. I don't know but they seem preachy preachy to me. Hahaha.
  I think I might read this book.

  Hadn't heard of this book before - I'm not much of a non-fiction reader either, but there are some good books out there that I've made exceptions for. Thanks for stopping by my FF - sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you!
