Story
In January 2019, culture writer Anne Helen Petersen set the internet on fire with her viral BuzzFeed essay diagnosing “millennial burnout” - a chronic state of stress and exhaustion that’s become a “base temperature” for young people today. Now, she continues this generation-defining conversation in a brand-new format, interviewing millennials around the country about their own deeply personal experiences with burnout, and the culture that creates it.

I have a lot of respect for Sean Grogan. He is definitely an expert in his field and has spent a lot of time mastering his craft, but this just was not a well crafted book. I had high hopes for this book and was let down. Don’t waste your time unless you are looking for the very basics. Just go read Joe Navarros books.

Story
This book provides concise, targeted information for police officers. The Fourth Amendment only prohibits one type of search or seizure, the unreasonable one. This book explains what those factors are. It is written in a checklist type format and officers around the country have expressed their appreciation for its down-to-earth writing style and easy-to-apply format.

I definitely recommend this book. Great information. This will be one that I listen to more than once. I was not a huge fan of the narrator though, but that’s probably just me nitpicking.

I do not recommend this book. This book is supposed to help you become a better writer but it is apparent the writer is not a great writer. This book is very boring and has no relevant information. Save your money and your time, do not waste it on this book.

As a police officer I have a hard time knowing who this book is actually written for. I don’t recommend this book because there really isn’t any useful knowledge presented from this book.

This is absolutely the longest infomercial. Constantly trying to sell you. There is good information in here but doesn’t not go into great detail. I didn’t buy the book so it was ok but I definitely don’t recommend buying this book.
