I'm a huge oprah fan and since O exists, I bought it and I now have a subscription for 3 years. I never throw a O away, but they take a lot of space. When i heard of this book, i ordered it and eventually can throw away the O's. You can find everything you want very easy with the different chapters, it's what the introductio says: "we did the cutting and clipping for you."

I've got my little book of Oprah's "What I Know for Sure" supplement and "Live Your Best Life" on one nightstand, and my grad school book the "Blushing MBA" on the other. Each night I read passages from each and it inspires me to really go for my goals and start a business. (LYBL taps into the topics of starting a business or a new job.) What resonated most deeply was the confidence factor which seemed to be the common thread among most of the advice or milestones - confidence in yourself, your life, choices, partners, work. From a layout perspective, the book is beautiful and very appealing to those visually stimulated by color.

This beautiful, oversized, full color breathtaking book is filled with some of the best articles I've come across all in one place. There's really something for everyone in this book. The categories are: Your Personal Best, Diet & Exercise, Health & Beauty, Balance, Happiness, Confidence, Dreaming Big, Spirituality, Relationships, Dating, Couples, Marriage, Sex, Talking & Listening, Family, On Being a Parent, Friends, Living in the World, Everyday Heroes, Giving Back, Make a Connection.

The contributors bring the best of the best advice, REAL information, (I just love the article about what makes Mavis and Jay Leno's marriage work) and I can genuinely say that this is a book that is timeless. It doesn't try to show you the latest, it brings you the greatest content that can really make a significant difference in your life, and in the lives of your children.

It makes a great coffee table book, because when people open it up, their going to get some extraordinarily great information in a book that is top notch quality. It's one I really recommend from my heart to anyone who wants to learn more, grow more, and create the greatest life possible.

Oprah is a spiritually uplifting person, so I wasn't surprised that her book was filled with such heartwarming stories focusing on others struggling to make a difference, as well as other stories on dating and dieting, just to name a few. Oprah's love for people as well as her generosity holds no boundaries. When my daughter bought me this book to hopefully give me the extra nudge of inspiration to continue living my best life, it did just that. I recommend this book to everyone, as I feel her engaging interviews, advice and inspiration are things everyone can use in their every day life, to live their best life.

I got this book as a Christmas present. I love it. What a great book. Recently I discovered the O magazine and its articles on beautiful stories that inspire you, fill your heart and make you believe again. This book is a compliation of past articles (articles that I missed) in one great book. I open to any page and start reading and I'm refreshed and feeling good about life. I especially enjoyed the articles on Spirituality, relationships, marriage and weight loss. Everyone has a story and Oprah makes sure we hear about them and are inspired. I love it.

As a new comer to the O magazine, it is fantastic to have all the best articles compiled together from the past 5 years. it is delightful and inspiring.

For those of you who love Oprah and the O magazines, I guarantee this is one book you don't want to miss out on! It has everything from health & body, to spirituality and Oprah interviews. All of the best articles from O magazine in one book - fantastic!

Just when I think "O" is perfect; it improves! Live Your Best Life is an incredible reference source for all who wish to receive some good-old-fashion-down-home advice in abundant areas and improve the quality of life.

Wholeheartedly, I recommend this book. You will be making a contribution to charity and a "Difference!"

I gave this book to several women for various occasions: birthday, retirement and "just because". ALL loved this book as did I. It is a book for women of all ages and an easy read. Very inspirational.

Oprah's midas touch is evident on every page of this magazine. Words of wisdom abound in this 336-paged self-discovery book. Needless to say that if properly applied, they could be all you need in order to maintain a well-balanced physical and emotional lifestyle. Daily issues like: health, inspiration, confidence, happiness, success, family, spirituality, and ambition were given first-class treatment. All you need to do is to sit back and read things for yourself.
No single book caters for all the desires of the human heart, but this one's really worth your time (and money). Its narrations are cogent and compelling; and the same applies to its witty and exuberant style. The contents are unisex: not just for ladies! So, as many folks wind-up the 'old' year in order to turn a fresh slate, this could (as well) be a good way to support any resolutions that one might be planning for the new year. It is indeed a good piece to relax with. A valuable treasury of wisdom and advice: be it night or day! All the very best!!
