Sometimes during the long davenings during the yomim noraim I find it hard to concentrate and often find my mind wandering contemplating complete nonsense on a day that is supposed to be full of focus. The past few years I have brought a sefer with me to shul and when I feel myself spacing out, I learn a little and then when my strength is back I return to the tzibbur.
Does anyone have any suggestions on a sefer for this year?

You can get an Artscroll Machzor which has plenty reading material and perush on the bottom of each page.
You can get Rinas Chaim which is a beautiful peirush on the Tefillah from Rav Chaim Friedlander Zatzal.
September 13, 2012 10:54 am at 10:54 am #896728147ParticipantHow about:- Teka beShofar, A Shofar Blowing Manual, by Avrohom Reit.
September 13, 2012 1:03 pm at 1:03 pm #896729ChortkovParticipantR’ Chaim Friedlander zt”l — Sifsei Chaim [with the aforementioned ‘Rinas Chaim’ on the Tefillos at the back.]
R’ Shimshon Pincus – Nefesh Shimshon on Yomim Noraim
Kol Dodi Dofek — From R’ Shalom Shwadron – i have heard it is excellent and full of easy to understand meshalim and chizuk.
September 13, 2012 4:16 pm at 4:16 pm #896730The RashbakMemberThe Ben Ish Chai says that we should not read/learn during davening. I take that as an aspiration, but difficult during the long services. And it’s better to learn Torah than chat with your neighbor or think about non-Torah topics.
How about a classic like Shaare Teshuvah? It works for me.

1. It is assur to talk during chazaras hashatz regardless of how long it is.
2. On Rosh Hashana once the brachos on the Tekios are made one may not talk out.

September 15, 2012 11:53 pm at 11:53 pm #896734Matan1ParticipantTry Rabbi Sachs’ machzorim. Very good commentary.
September 16, 2012 1:00 am at 1:00 am #896735yaff80ParticipantTry yesoid veshoiresh ha’avoida.
Look at the shaar on the month of Tishrei. He guides you through the various parts of the Avoidas hayoim with the correct thoughts one should have at each juncture.
Sifsei Chaim is another great option.
Others use Sharei Teshuva or Tomer Devorah
