Unbelievable. I just got my copy of Back In Action. Looks like we all need to purchase a few for friends. Time to step up for us armchair supporters. This book should go to number 1!!!

It's a sad situation when Amber Frey's book is the rage. What's wrong with this picture?
Back in Action will end up on top after Frey's book is in the dustbin.
Cpt Rozelle is a courageous soldier, a honorable man, and the kind of man any family would be honored to have as a relative.

Got my copy on Monday. Excellent and inspiring. Read it in one sitting and passed it along. I work with avid readers, but this is a different type of read than they are used to. Tuesday's book borrower couldn't put it down, and Wednesday's has also finished it. Am I naive enough to think that these book-of-the-month fiction readers really read it just because they said they did? No. I gave them the big quiz (the old school teacher in me still lives). Captain Rozelle is amazing and has opened a few eyes around here.

Amber Frey is dumb as a bag full of hammers. I imagine the portion of her tome actually written by her is probably pretty small.

I'm certain her contribution consisted of the name. Hammers are at least useful.
Grayhawk - we'll spread the word on Cpt. Rozelle's book, those numbers will change!

Thanks for the book tip. Back In Action will be my next purchase. I wouldn't use Amber Frey's book for toilet paper.

NYT bestseller list is made-up by editors.
several years ago Howard Stern's book didn't make to that listing, despite hefty sales #. stern angrily confronted NYT about a perceived slight and was told that bestseller list actually reflected opinions & views of their editory board and wasn't made upon bases of actual sales.
