More Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, by Guy Fieri. HarperCollins. Kindle edition $9.99. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"Guy Fieri strikes again with More Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, giving you a road map to road food that's earned its culinary citizenship in 'Flavortown.' Join Guy on a cross-country noshing parade, mapping out the best places you've never heard of - more than fifty establishments off the beaten path. Compete in a (no hands) apple-pie-eating contest at Bobo Drive-In in Topeka, Kansas, dip your taste buds in Sweet Spicy Love sauce at Uncle Lou's Fried Chicken in Memphis, Tennessee, and get a load of the killer four-cheese mac-and-cheese at Gorilla Barbeque in Pacifica, California..." - www.harpercollins.com.
ON NBC'S TODAY SHOW (02 NOV 09)
Unsweetined, by Jodie Sweetin. Simon Spotlight Entertainment. Kindle edition $14.29. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"Jodie Sweetin grew up in front of America, melting our hearts and making us laugh for eight years as the cherub-faced middle child on Full House. Her ups and downs seemed not so different from our own, but more than a decade after the popular television show ended, the star we knew as goody-two-shoes Stephanie Tanner publicly revealed her shocking recovery from methamphetamine addiction. Even then, Jodie still kept a painful secret - one that could not be solved in thirty minutes with a hug, a stern talking-to, or a bowl of ice cream around the family table. In her deeply personal, utterly raw, and ultimately inspiring memoir, Jodie comes clean about the double life she led - the crippling identity crisis that began at her birth, the hidden anguish of juggling a regular childhood with her Hollywood life, and the vicious cycle of abuse and recovery that led to a relapse even as she wrote this book. Today, Jodie's life is a work in progress. Resilient, charming, and funny, she writes candidly about taking each day at a time." -books.simonandschuster.com.
ON ABC'S GOOD MORNING AMERICA (05 NOV 09)
My Paper Chase: True Stories of Vanished Times, by Harold Evans. Little, Brown & Company. Kindle edition $14.78. Text-to-Speech: Enabled.
"In My Paper Chase, Harold Evans recounts a wild and wonderful tale of newspapering life. His story stretches from the 1930s to his service in WWII, through towns big and off the map. He discusses his passion for the crusading style of reportage he championed, his clashes with Rupert Murdoch, and his struggle to use journalism to better the lives of those less fortunate. There's a star-studded cast and a tremendously vivid sense of what once was: the lead type, the smell of the presses, eccentrics throughout, and angry editors screaming over the intercoms. ...Evans is the author of the New York Times bestseller The American Century."- Amazon.

Under the Dome, by Stephen King. Scribner. Hardcover edition $9.99. The Kindle edition (to be released December 24) is not yet available for pre-order.
"On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as 'the dome' comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away. Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens - town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing - even murder - to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out." - Amazon.
