I have Marie Antoinette too but still haven't read it. I plan to join this too and am putting together my list of possibles. I think most of mine will be Japan related this year.
I still haven't decided whether to join this challenge (another one!) or not. I have been reading and plan to read quite a lot of non-fic this year, so it would not an entirely unrealistic goal.
Hooray, Hooray! Glad to see you have joined us for the Non-Fiction Five Challenge!
I read A Long Way Gone - excellent. And I read Molokai (the fiction version), but I think your non-fiction choice would have been better for me. It's definitely an interesting story. I have Positive Discipline, but have only breezed through it. I've seen Dr. Sears on Dr. Phil and Dr. Brazelton is an oldie, but goodie (unless it's his son or something like that). :)
I know you didn't ask, but I would recommend the CONCEPT of Love & Logic (Jim Fay). I do not like all the methods and some of the way Fay presents it, but overall the concept is a good one. I have always thought of it for school aged children, but I think he has books that begin younger. It's food for thought anyway. :)
Now that I think about it, there is another "version" of Love & Logic that isn't as tough, but I can't remember the name of it.
