has anyone read Leo Babatua's "Un Procrastination" ? I'm tempted but I would like to hear a few reviews before I plunk down $11.95 (ebook format only so I can't get it from my library). And I tend to really trust the opinions I hear here!

I've only read his book "Focus," which I got from the library. He freely admits that this new e-book "Un-Procrastination" overlaps quite a bit with "Focus," with the addition of interviews with Tim Ferriss and Mary Jansch... see here:

He has often mentioned that his books are compilations of his posts on Zen Habits, so everything can be found on the site though not all in one handy location.
To (sort of) answer your question, I'm a huge fan of Leo but after a quick scan through "Focus" I realized he'd already covered it all on Zen Habits.

Are you sure you can't get ebooks from your library? I borrow ebooks all the time from mine, which I then read on my Nook. If you don't have an ereader, you can at least download the Nook reader to your computer and read it there (if your library has it).

I would just read his blog. You could even try a Google Search for zen habits procrastination. I like this Procrastination advice, which is short by sweet: http://www.studygs.net/attmot3.htm

Babauta has a rather clear way of organizing his blog articles and I have concluded that for now I can grasp his message from them only. I do not particularly like the overlap that was mentioned earlier, but would like to see entirely new content produced for a new book.

thanks all for your input and advice
my library has a very limited selection of ebooks at this time, I'm hoping they find the budget to expand but with locations closing right and left in my county, my hopes are not too high right now!
I'll check out the other links as well, thanks!
