How to Save Your Own Life

January 15, 2010
Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, Gill ("How Starbucks Saved My Life") managed to lose everything he had, then come back with a new appreciation for people and the ordinary moments of life. In his engrossing second book, he offers advice for weathering the downs. His suggestions range from listening to other survivors and accepting help to laughing more and taking leaps of faith. While other writers often weave too much ego into their message, Gill has created an engrossing work without boosting himself. Bound to please and encourage. [See Prepub Alert, "LJ" 9/1/09.]
