Summary: Cynicism In a Nutshell!
Review: I received this book as a Christmas gift from a friend. She claimed it was me in a nutshell! I read a few passages to my friends, and I had spoken those same words to people many times. This book is one of the most well written parodies, and deserves all the credit it gets. This gets five stars from me, and I hope this ends up on the bookshelves of every home!

Summary: Instant humor to lighten the soul. Reading our true thoughts
Review: If you ever drifted your thoughts during a conversation and thought, "I wish I could say what I'm really thinking right now," you need to read this book. Rarely can I listen to a comic or read the funny pages in the newspaper and have a good deep laugh. After reading `Today I Will Nourish My Inner Martyr` I felt I wasn't the only cynical person in the world who would like to say, "Tonight by moonlight I will rake leaves onto my neighbors yard."

Summary: The bold, seductive, mean-spirited hit of the season.
Review: If you imagine this collection of affirmations as the thoughts of every individual around you, you'll swear you have discovered the inner monologue of us all. Contrived as its self-help counterpart, Today I Will Nourish My Inner Martyr speaks to the socially overwhelmed and the self-condemned. These proclamations ultimately become contradictions of one's own superiority. They both celebrate and declare resistance to the despair of a world whose gauges have been left broken by progress. As the rest of us are dragged into the next millenium, the only ones left to sympathize with us are own ourselves. And thus the shade of humor becomes dark and darker, cornered from attention as we seek to obtain it with complete disregard for everyone.At its essence Today I Will Inner My Inner Martyr is a plea to remain inexcusably human. If the self-help movement has left you defeated, find triumph in selfishness. Every false expectation and ode to self-absorption will resonate each time you utter them. I found myself endlessly returning to these epic assertions of yearning, and self-loathing. From the voice of the betrayed, Ann Thornhill and Sarah Wells serve spoonfuls of truth without the warning label. Their poisonous home-brew of satire leaves me unable to mouth the generic positive affirmations of traditional sorts that neither applies here or in a perfect world. I take satisfaction in the taste of bitterness. Today I will nourish my inner martyr.

Summary: Good Read...About time someone nourished the cynic in us all
Review: It is an oxymoron that a practicing therapist says on page 19 of her book that "Today I will play mind games with my therapist." A good read. Fast and fun; however, volumes more are waiting to be written. My favorite(personal)..."People are messy" Use with caution...Wells and Thornhill hit nerves with every other comment. I am waiting for volume II, like "Friday the Thirteenth II..."Jason Opens a Conenvience Store..." The book is as happy as a pet rock. I recommend it highly. Just do what you do best, the best advice for cynics everywhere. Kudos.

Summary: Perfect for embittered cynics (like me!)
Review: The title caught my eye and after reading only a few lines, I knew I'd hit the jackpot. When I read the whole book, I laughed so hard my ribs hurt, and that's pretty amazing considering I'm a pessimist. This book is the ideal gift for intellectual, sarcastic cynics who have a warped sense of humor. I wouldn't recommend it for the cutesy, 'huggy bunny' class of folks...first of all, they wouldn't 'get' the jokes, and secondly they'd be outraged if not horrified. This makes the book all more fun and appealing to those of us who are amused by the darker side of life. I salute the authors for going out on a limb, and the publisher for not letting politically correct doctrine get in the way of having some cynical laughs.
