Office Space and Bob lies
I’ve used it for a few runs on a parkway with trees and have only been able to get the GPS to work once. Standing the SAME spot two days in a row, and it found satelites after about 5 minutes one day and not at all the second. I haven’t been able to get the heart rate monitor working either, even after changing the battery and making sure the straps are wet. When I did get it working for one of the three runs, I did like the usability and the display. However, it’s pretty much a paperweight if you can’t get the GPS working. It’s great if you run out in the barren plains but forget about nice Midwestern runs along lakes. Buyer beware!

Both myself and an African American friend who has worked in her younger days for families like the ones in this novel read this book one after another and we both loved it.
It was an honest, vulnerable and intriguing peek into the windows of some of Mississippi’s well to do families and their maids.
For me, the marker of a really good book is that it keeps you turning the pages, the author’s words never distract you from the story itself and I’m left changed at the end of it.
The Help accomplished all of this. I’m not a fast reader but I devoured this book in two days. I can’t recommend it highly enough.
From a very picky fellow novelist, Kathryn, you did good! (Oh and if you happen to read this, we’d love to have you stop by [...] for an interview. Fabulous book. You should be so proud, not just of the sales and job well done but for the hearts you will and have changed through it.
