Some info about the book:
Each second of the day, someone in America faces a crisis, whether it's a car accident, violent crime, serious illness, or financial trouble. Given the inevitability of adversity, we all wonder: Who beats the odds and who surrenders? Why do some people bound back and others give up? How can I become the kind of person who survives and thrives?
The fascinating, hopeful answers to these questions are found in THE SURVIVORS CLUB. In the tradition of Freakonomics and The Tipping Point, this book reveals the hidden side of survival by combining astonishing true stories, gripping scientific research, and the author's adventures inside the U.S. military's elite survival schools and the government's airplane crash evacuation course.
With THE SURVIVORS CLUB, you can also discover your own Survivor IQ through a powerful Internet-based test called the Survivor Profiler. Developed exclusively for this book, the test analyzes your personality and generates a customized report on your top survivor strengths.
There is no escaping life's inevitable struggles. But THE SURVIVORS CLUB can give you an edge when adversity strikes.

That sounds really interesting! I recently red Eggs In Purgatory by Laura Childs. Her books are so much fun!
I would love to win this book! My most recent read was Live From New York, by Tom Shales & James Andrew Miller.
Uh, I could really use this book right now (am in some sort of crisis myself)... so I hope I'll win.
My most recent read is "The memory keeper's daugther"... pretty good so far.
Currently reading "Blue Sky Dreams" for a class. Interesting...but for class. Would much rather read this book!
Oooo this book sounds awesome! Honestly, my most recent read was "The Bombshell Manual of Style." I absolutely would not recommend it. I was looking for a girly, frivolous bathtub boob, but even with those lowered expectations it was awful. What a waste of my life!
My most recent read is "My Sister's Keeper" I highly recommend it! :)
That sounds pretty interesting. My last read was First Daughter by Eric van Lustbader.
Sounds like a good read to me! I just finished "something borrowed" and really enjoyed that one..
Sounds like a good book to have around.
My most recent read was "The Northern Clemency" by Philip Hensher and despite the accolades this book has received, I wasn't really a fan. I found myself skipping over dull bits parts and I did not connect with any of the characters much.

my most recent read is Ama Adhe's A Voice to Remember. Thanks for the giveaway!

Watched the video and was inspired to delve in to the possibilities.
Recently read A Whole New Mind by Daniel Pink. It changed my outlook of the world.
This sounds like a =fabulous= book, thank you!! I'm currently in the middle of The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and having just finished Study in Scarlett before this, I'm wondering how I never got around to reading these before, LOL!
Neuromancer by William Gibson for class.
Angels and Demons
I just read "The Blue Sweater" by Jaqueline Novogratz. The novel discusses how microcredit can transform the economy of the world by giving small loans to people (particularly women), who are living in poverty in Third World countries. The novels traces her life, how she got involved and the progress that has been made through microcredit.
All The Names, by Jose Saramago; not an easy read, but definitely a good read.
I recently read Sundays at Tiffanys by James Patterson. Excellent book.
I just finished Buffalo Lockjaw by Greg Ames.
Thanks for the giveaway!

The Shack by William P. Young
Magician's Assistant by Anne Patchett. Love her.
My most recent read is the Guernsey Literary Potato Peel Pie Society. It was very good.
I last read Rich Dad Poor Dad. This sound like a good read. Thanks for the opportunity.
I just finished "Run for Your Life" by James Patterson. I would love to read the Survivor Club book. Thanks for the giveaway!
I am actually currently just now reading Sex and the City and am having a hard time finishing it as it is not as gripping as the series.
That sounds so interesting! My most recent read was "Interpreter of Maladies" by Lahiri! :D
I recently read A Thousand Splendid Suns. It was the most amazing book. Everyone should read it!
I most recently finished "What to expect the first year" Now I am onto "what to expect the toddler years"
I tried to read Cormac McCarthy's "The Road", but found myself wanting to jump off the nearest bridge so I gave up and am now reading Sense and Sensibility. I think I made a wise choice.
