I did very much enjoy your trip through the self-help shelf at the book store. I must admit your titles are more interesting than the ones found here in the boondocks. Such as:

How to Carve a Deer into Steaks: without getting blood on your shoes. Thank goodness I'm vegetarian.

You Can Still Get Trapped in an Abandoned Gold Mine: there ain't no gold in them hills, but there's plenty of eyes.

Lots to noodle over here, and what a great read. You should start a contest, or not. Maybe someone else will. :))

Schadenfreude-Glad to come across a German word after a long time. I studied German at Goethe Institut in Germany ages ago and could read write and speak german to some extent. The little knowledge I had seems to have evaporated. You seem to be a jane of all trades. You have bundles of latent talent. So keep reading. You never know who will be needing a sound advice. Cheers!

Laugh out loud funny. If ever any of life's stumbling blocks were so easily overcome...
Read a book, congrats! You are (maybe, kinda sorta)--better and definitely at least twenty dollars lighter in the old bank account!

I have been addicted to many similar philosophies which have helped me live a happier life and I would suggest you listen to Dr Chittergee's podcasts Elizabeth, they are amazing with lots of helpful advice to live well, I enjoyed your post, love Dolly x

Love the humor and book title references, "negotiating a settlement" that one got me, they are all very humorous and very well thought out, an excellent read, very well written****kahpot

Lol. You're so funny! I think my favorite title was:
"Painless Childbirth: Wanna buy the Brooklyn Bridge too?"
Thanks for sharing and yes, there's something comforting at least to know that you're not alone in the suffering (what you said earlier) and I don't think that's quite Schadenfreude (what you concluded with).

This is a great one!!!!!!!!!!! I love the list of self help books. Do you just write non-stop all day long? You churn out the best sellers at a frightening pace.
