| 1. |  | Wishful Drinking
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $12.60
Customer Review:
I received a copy of "wishful thinking" for Christmas. I have already read the whole entire small wollop of a book. It is a look into who she was before she was famous, about her famous parents, and how she came to be famous throughout the trials and tribulations of being on drugs and an alcoholic.... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

| 2. |  | My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands
from Bloomsbury USA
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
Chelsea Handler writes as if she's your close girl friend telling you a story over a drink at the bar. She's honest and witty as she dead pans her thoughts & reactions to her most ridiculous stories about men. I absolutely loved the book, and recommend it to any girl who's ever needed a night of... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 3. |  | Pieces of My Heart: A Life
from HarperEntertainment
Price: $17.13
Customer Review:
Of all the recently-published autobiographies of movie stars to come across this reader's desk, this is by far the dullest. Robert Wagner (for some reason calling himself Robert "J" Wagner here - I know his friends call him "RJ", but so what?), star of TV's It Takes a Thief and Hart to Hart, never... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

| 4. |  | In Spite of Myself: A Memoir
from Knopf
Price: $19.77
Customer Review:
If you're a Christopher Plummer fan, then this is the book for you. Obviously. There's very little that Christopher Plummer did that isn't documented here (although it doesn't come up to date other than generally). With such a long and distinguished career it's hardly surprising that despite the... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

| 5. |  | The Girls Next Door
from Simon Spotlight Entertainment
Price: $19.80
Customer Review:
I am an admitted Girls Next Door fan. I have purchased all of the DVD's and I catch the show every week and I love it. So, of course, when this book came out I jumped on it, despite the reservations that I had. For one, I hate it when books are released about a series when the series is in the... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

| 6. |  | "Have You Seen . . . ?": A Personal Introduction to 1,000 Films
from Knopf
Price: $26.37
Customer Review:
Somewhere in this bible size book for reasons apparent to Thomson and his editors he places "Les 400 Coups" on page 699 After "Quai des Orfevres, page 768" and before "The Queen" page 700. One wonders why he does not put this review in a place where it makes sense...say in the F's or even Les... more info | 3.5 / 5.0

| 7. |  | Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life
from Scribner
Price: $16.50
Customer Review:
Steve Martin is a genius. No question. He was extremely funny for a long time, and his post-comedy career has revealed him to be an artist capable both of graceful and inspired work (think Leap of Faith and L.A. Story) and some truly bottom-rate fare. Here, he tries but doesn't connect with a new... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Signet
Price: $9.99
Customer Review:
Believe it or not this is the first time I have ever purchased a Leonard Maltin Movie Guide. This is the 30th edition of the guide that was first published way back in 1969 and it is now updated annually. "Leonard Maltin's 2009 Movie Guide" features 17,000+ entries including more than 300 brand new... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

| 9. | ![]() | West Side Story
from MGM/UA
Customer Review:
Sorry, didn't get it. Not my cup of tea. I think you have to be either a card carrying member AARP or you know, appreciate of the arts to enjoy this sing songy blah blah blah movie with no explosions or sex scenes. I'm neither. | 4.5 / 5.0

| 10. |  | The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia
from Del Rey
Price: $78.75
Customer Review:
I'm a big Star Wars fan; i'm only at the letter F right now (looking at the pictures and some of the interesting entries) and i already found out so many cool things i didn't know about. There was obviously a great amount of work that went into this. Illustrations are everywhere, and there are also... more info | 3.0 / 5.0
