“Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World” is interesting to me because I have had cats for most of my life. Right now, we have seven!
“Titanic’s Last Secrets” sounds good because I’ve been interested in the Titanic almost my whole life. My mom was fascinated by it because her grandmother had one of the first books ever published about the Titanic — not in great shape now, but you can see the publication date of 1912.
“A Whack on the Side of the Head: How You Can Be More Creative” is interesting to me because I’m a writer and actress, and I’m working as a public relations and marketing specialist right now, so both personally and at work, I need to be creative!
Thanks for the chance to win any five of these books. I love reading!

The book that interests me the most is:
A Whack on the Side of the Head: How You Can Be More Creative by Roger von Oech
I’d enjoy a good mind-stretching to stimulate my creativity! 🙂

Wow! Looks like there is so many good ones. The one I’d read first though is The Self-Esteem Trap.

Titanic’s Last Secrets looks good.
