I did not see any denial that the book was not a self-help book.
By criticizing a book someone is reading, you are, by extension, criticizing the person.
What could have been an edifying and pleasant thread has now been turned into a childish and hostile interaction. What did not need to happen is the blasting of what someone else listed they will read.
I think a better observation is the book is not "self-help" as Evan described, but personal development.
(It's not teaching reliance on oneself but instead developing skills to facilitate interpersonal relationships).

Hey JonC I saw Star Wars again for the 3rd time. What a excellent movie.
I remember going to the first one when I was in elementary school. They did a good job on this last one.
As long as you didn't go in costume...or as long as that costume wasn't an ewok...all is good.
Darn yes I made that grammar error. The Martian? Saw it but the cussing scared me off.
I saw it in a very noisy Chinese theater. Everyone thinks it's their living room and they feel free to carry on loud conversation --continually. But now and then I tried to view the movie. I thought it was a good product. I didn't note the cussing so much. I don't hear cussing in English at all while here. That's a plus.
Continuing through Karl Barth's "Church Dogmatics".
You've seen a movie three times in less than two weeks? There's some time and money you'll never get back again.
Oh go chase a rabbit!
Let me guess--$35 for three tickets, perhaps some munchies to go with it. Maybe $45 spent on going to the same movie three times and seven hours spent sitting in a theater. Not my gig.
Perhaps this should be the reply by those who respond to your next plea for financial, job, and personal relationship advice.

It was a good movie and I plan to buy a copy when it comes out on DVD.
"What we have here is a failure to communicate!"
Now that's original.
So three movies at $12 each, munchies at the theater, perhaps $5 each time, then buy the DVD for $24.99. About $75 spent to see the same movie four times. That doesn't strike you as a waste of money?
