#11 Read two books a month

For April the two books I read was 1) "Go Green, Live Rich" by David Bach. This book gives many good ideas about going green, and different webs that you can go to for info. The live rich part, explains how,over time, that if you "go green" the money that you will save over the years. I found this book very good, and liked a lot of the ideas for going green, and plan on using them. 2) My second book was "Here's the Deal, Don't Touch Me" by Howie Mandel. I really liked this book as Howie was very truthful and funny in it. He described his struggles to become famous, what it was like to have OCD and ADHD, hiding it from the public and finally letting the world know about it.
