"We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand"

Date of Review:  Apr 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: The must read of 2008.

Dying Randy Pausch Delivers An Uplifting Last Lecture~

Date of Review:  Nov 23, 2008
The Bottom Line: Pausch fought cancer the American Way, not only with ever more toxins but courage, humor and hope. He remained a Tigger from A.A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh book.
Review: Wearing a Disney logo and name badge from his work as a Disney Imagineer, Randy Pausch gives, literally, his last lecture to his Carnegie Mellon University colleagues, students and friends just a month after receiving the news that he had but six...

The Utter Banality of Death

Date of Review:  Sep 3, 2009
The Bottom Line: An unbearable list of platitudes on how to live your life. A lecture I could have skipped.
Review: Last year I promised that next time I move I will shed 5% my book collection. I know it will be difficult, because I love my books. This book, however, is already on the list.

This work, which can be read in a couple of hours, is based on...

One man's lessons for his children and the rest of the world: The Last Lecture

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: This book will remind you to slow down, enjoy your life and family, and do the very best that you can. It is a powerful message from an incredible man.
Review: Although I usually stick to chick-lit and cheesy romance novels for my summer reading, I was fresh out of books and willing to grab just about anything on the latest trip to Target. My husband said that he had heard about The Last Lecture on the...

Randy Pausch-isms on his views on life

Date of Review:  Sep 20, 2008
The Bottom Line: very much worth reading and re-reading every few months - don't hesitate to purchase your own copy and grab a highlighter too
Review: A string of 61 brief chapters make up this fabulous, inspirational book advising on how life is best lived. It comes from the eyes, words, thoughts, and experiences of a very intelligent man who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at a time when,...

Wonderful Uplifting Book!

Date of Review:  Sep 11, 2009
Review: This has become one of my favorite books.  It is a well written story about the author who is dying of pancreatic cancer.  He basically writes the story giving life advice that he hopes one day his very young children will follow.  It is a very...

Are you a Tigger or an Eeyore?

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: I recommend this book to everyone of all ages- it is an amazing story of how everyone should lead their life.
Review: Randy Pausch is many things: witty, funny, kind, compassionate, smart, and charming. He is also a father, a brother, a son, a dad, someone’s cousin, and a pretty amusing uncle. Randy Pausch is also a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon...

If I knew what Randy Pausch knew, would I be the same?

Date of Review:  Jul 25, 2009
Review: I have always believed that a life well-lived alleviates regrets. Randy Pausch reaffirmed this for me.  He set goals for himself, wrote them down, and went about living his life with intent and purpose.  When it same to dying he continued his love...

Thank you, Randy, for letting us in and sharing your insight.

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: This book, these stories, this man should be in your heart.
Review: I saw Randy Pausch on Oprah. The rest of that evening, I could not stop thinking of this man. The manner in which he was facing his terminal illness, with such total love and concern for his family and bravery really grabbed my attention. When I...
