A new book to read

Oprah featured a new book in her show for Oprah's book club entitled "A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose" by Eckhart Tolle the other day.

Book Description:

The highly anticipated follow-up to the 2,000,000 copy bestselling inspirational book, The Power of Now

With his bestselling spiritual guide The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle inspired millions of readers to discover the freedom and joy of a life lived "in the now." In A New Earth, Tolle expands on these powerful ideas to show how transcending our ego-based state of consciousness is not only essential to personal happiness, but also the key to ending conflict and suffering throughout the world. Tolle describes how our attachment to the ego creates the dysfunction that leads to anger, jealousy, and unhappiness, and shows readers how to awaken to a new state of consciousness and follow the path to a truly fulfilling existence.

The Power of Now was a question-and-answer handbook. A New Earth has been written as a traditional narrative, offering anecdotes and philosophies in a way that is accessible to all. Illuminating, enlightening, and uplifting, A New Earth is a profoundly spiritual manifesto for a better way of life—and for building a better world.

It's been awhile since I last finished a book, the last one was "For One More Day" by Mich Albom. I love reading Albom's books.
So, when I saw Eckhart Tolle's book at Oprah I was inspired to read another book.
I don't read book that much, it just that from time to time there's a new book that will caught my attention.
I checked the book immediately online & found out that it's very affordable ($8.40)...within my budget...hehe.
Unfortunately, when I was in Target this afternoon I didn't see one.
I'll just go to WaldenBooks tomorrow at GreenTree Mall, I hope I can find it there.
Since Oprah launched this in her show, I bet a lot of people will buy this book.
Anyway, I know it's about time to feed my mind & heart with something interesting to read.
