This
Day: Diaries from American Women "Intensely entertaining. This Day is as addictive as any reality TV show but with one real difference. The book lures you in with its amazingly candid details of women's lives, but it also leaves you feeling truly inspired. I highly recommend this book." — Ben Pappas, Us Weekly magazine "This Day is like a reality show that doesn't require a television—it lets you peek into the intimate details of other women's lives, from the mundane to the awe-inspiring. I picked out a random story to start, and found myself hooked, turning page after page. I wanted to talk to each of these fascinating women.!" — Kim Gandy, president of the National Organization for Women |

"There
is
not one piece in this compilation that is not
captivating… These women communicate bravery, compassion, humor and
perseverance in this compulsively readable volume." - Publishers

Reviews & News "Water Cooler Diaries is one of those books that you start reading and can’t stop. Each of the diaries is short; most are just a few pages. They’re not candy-coated, but they’re not filled with “I hate my job" cries, either. Some are funny. Others will break your heart in two.” TriCities.com Water Cooler Diaries is a "Recommended new paperback," Tuscon Citizen. "This huge volume spends 320 pages covering one question: 'What's your workday like?'" – Washington Post Express "It is captivating reading... When I get on
a plane today, it will be the book I pull out to read. – Shine.com "Water Cooler Diaries is, on the face of it, remarkably uplifting." — Los Angeles Times "Funny, insightful and occasionally heart- wrenching… this is a book for anyone who ever took a coffee break." – Dame "From a race-car driver to a McDonald's manager, each account lets you experience what it’s really like to be a woman in the workforce." – Ellegirl.com "On March 27, 2007, hundreds of women across the country created an on-the-job 'day diary'…this glimpse into their lives is both fascinating and eye-opening." – Publishers Weekly "Skimming through this collection is
not a good idea... worth rereading." – Booklist |
