Robertson's Reads - Biographies / Style Icons

While I've not yet read either, I'm eager to turn the pages of Have a Little Faith by Mitch Albom and What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Gladwell. These books come in at nine and ten (respectively) on my Christmas wish list this year.

Have a Little Faith is Albom's first nonfiction work since his first big bestseller Tuesdays With Morrie. I'll let you know exactly how it reads, but so far I've heard only amazing things about it.

What the Dog Saw is a compilation of Gladwell's best writing from his days at The New Yorker. He says in the preface that "good writing does not succeed or fail on the strength of its ability to persuade. It succeeds or fails on the strength of its ability to engage you, to make you think, to give you a glimpse into someone else's head." And the stories in this book are supposed to just that.

Check back in the new year for my reviews of these and more Robertson's Reads...
