R is for recommendation (book)

I checked this book out from the libary a year ago.  Some day I will buy it (Christmas gift anyone?) but as long as I'm making a link to remember it myself I thought I'd pass it on. 

The title is quite self explanatory.  It's an easy read.  Most important, I think, for kids/parents that feel the need to busy themselves with loads of extracurriculars to stand out on college apps.  The students featured in this book didn't do that, nor did they sit around.  They were focused!  They spent their time on something they enjoyed and excelled in that area.
