Oprah Picks Book; Offers Distance Course Learning
By Jane • Jan 30th, 2008 • Category: Publishing News • •
A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose by Eckhart Tolle is Oprah’s newest book club pick. Apparently, Oprah is not satisfied with foisting one schlocky self improvement book on us or the public hasn’t done a good enough job of remaking their lives to her satisfaction because she is going to “co-teach” a ten week course with Tolle on how to achieve our “higher selves”. University of Phoenix, watch out.
Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!
