84. Double or Nothing : How Two Friends . . . by Tom Breitling - My ER book for March. Very enjoyable. I'm a sucker for a good "rags to riches" story, and this is one of the better ones I've read. Tim Poster and Tom Breitling start a room reservation service in Vegas that becomes TravelScape, ...

... next "Women of the Otherworld" (which is out shortly in HB, but I'll be waiting for the paper). I was hoping my ER book Double or Nothing : How Two Friends . . . would be here by the time I finished this one. It's not, but I don't want to start anything heavy while I'm waiting. So, I'll ...

I got my first ER book, Double or Nothing: How Two Friends Risked It All to Buy One of Las Vegas' Legendary Casinos, in the mail today, and I already finished it! Fans of non-fiction should definitely take a chance on this well-composed and fast-paced memoir about friendship and fortunes. Set ...

Larxol in Early Reviewers : What Did you get for March? (Mar 18, 2008, 8:47pm)

I scored Double or nothing, although I have no books in particular about Las Vegas. I do have some "true crime" mafia histories -- maybe that did it. Curiously, I just got back Sunday from my first visit there. Maybe the secret algorithm has a GPS component...

dulcibelle in Early Reviewers : What Did you get for March? (Mar 18, 2008, 1:37pm)

Double or Nothing : How two friends . . . is coming to my house! I'm thrilled for two reasons: I LOVE Vegas (witness the number of books about Vegas in my library) and The Golden Nugget is my favorite hotel anywhere! I just hope the book lives up to my expectations.
