Helping Me Help Myself

I read this over spring break, but I seem to have forgotten to add it to my list of books read this year.

Didn't I already read this book? No, it wasn't this one, but the idea behind it was exactly the same. The book is Practically Perfect in Every Way and in it the author attempts to try to improve herself by reading self-help books. Beth Lisick does the same thing, but she also decides to try attending a workshop by the author of the self-help book. She feels, by the end of her year, that she has improved, unlike our Practically Perfect author. Both authors, sadly, spent an awful lot of money attempting to be better people, buying books, attending workshops, traveling to meet self-help gurus. Tax write-offs, I guess.
