By Jeannette Walls

Whoa, Nellie! Jeannette Walls has done it again. This is the story of her maternal grandmother, told in the form of a novel, and it is just plain wonderful. Lily Casey's voice is powerful and true - this is one strong, no-nonsense woman who takes the ups and downs of ranch life in the early 1900s completely in stride. And she led one helluva life, believe me.- Kathryn

Perfumes: The A-Z Guide
By Luca Turin
Our Shelf Talker
I’ve always been nervous about wearing perfume, but with this book in hand, I may just brave the first-floor aisles of Bloomingdale’s without taking defensive olfactory measures. This handy guide rates hundreds of perfumes and the introduction tells you what to look (or smell) for. And the authors are very funny – I ended up flipping through the book searching for the hilarious one star reviews. Perfect for the fragrant lady in your life looking for a new scent.- Karen

Women and men will be shocked as they learn what a woman's life was like and how gradually it improved to where we are today.
