Jenn Book 4 Week 3 - The Frailty Myth by Colette Dowling
This book I have also read before it is one of my favorites. This book debunks the myth that women are the weaker sex and goes into scientific detail about how and why and where it came from. Good read, specially when you have daughter :D

Don't sweat the small stuff... And it's all small stuff by Richard Carlson, PH.D.
It's a book Jenn got me, i've already got a bit of a head start in it so i figure it's a good place to start.
Basically it's a book about proactive thinking. Tittle pretty much sums it up.
