Dating for women

Good advice, mostly
Reviewed: 02-05-22
The traps younger women fall in emotionally are well discussed. The sexual advice I think is poor. Overall good advice, especially for younger or less experienced women

Does nature really make us feel better? The 3-Day Effect takes a look at the science behind why being in the wild can make us happier, healthier, and more creative. Whether it’s rafting down Utah’s Green River, hiking in Utah’s wilderness, or walking through Rock Creek Park in Washington, DC, scientists are finding that the more exposure humans have to nature, the more we can benefit from reduced anxiety, enhanced creativity, and overall well-being.

These medical review books are a great idea, but Audible really needs to find better readers. Scott Jasmin is better than the other primary female reader, but he gets so monotoned and his over pronunciation of sounds makes for such an unnatural, mechanical performance.

Story5 out of 5 stars 335
Interruptions: They're aggravating - sometimes infuriating. They make us want to tell people what we think of them. But how we handle interruptions actually tell us more about ourselves. The prophet Jonah's existence was interrupted by a call of God that would require a complete change of life. And it scared him enough to make him run in the opposite direction. Yet, what seemed to him to be an unnecessary and useless interruption was really an opportunity for Jonah to be involved in something the likes of which the Old Testament world had never seen before.

Great insights
Reviewed: 07-16-19
This is my second book by this author and I have gained great encouragement from both.
The speaker was pretty annoying to listen to. She had great inflection in her voice that seemed to match well with the author's intended meaning, but her over-pronunciation of words was weird and down right distracting.

Story5 out of 5 stars 164
The Egyptians in Exodus 1 were intent on enslaving the Israelites, wearing them down so that God's chosen people would become disillusioned and not live up to their destiny. Of the original two million Israelites who received God's invitation to enter the Promised Land, only two actually entered it! Similarly, modern day Christians often hear and understand the promises of God each Sunday morning at church but then rarely choose to experience them in everyday life. In One in a Million, Bible teacher Priscilla Shirer invites us to change that pattern for good.

Timely book as I enter a new phase of life
Reviewed: 07-12-19
In my current life transition, this book was written just for me. Almost everything is what I can relate to now or I tucked it away for what I could be facing in the future. I will listen to this book again again when I am struggling with life and know it will help catapult me to the next level.
The reader had good inflection but I didn't appreciate some of her pronunciations or the weird way she would slow down her speech in an unnatural flow. it was most annoying.

I loved the author's stories and her way with words. When she told her stories it was like she was telling it for the first time, so full of emotion and passion, so descriptive and flowing with imagery. I cried so much listening to this book. I was completely pulled into all that she was calling me to and just wanted more and more.

Do you dare step through the red door? Spencer Grant had no idea what drew him to the bar with the red door. He thought he would just sit down, have a slow beer or two, and talk to a stranger. He couldn’t know that it would lead to a narrow escape from a bungalow targeted by a SWAT team. Or that it would leave him a wanted man. But now Spencer is on the run from mysterious and ruthless men. He is in love with a woman he knows next to nothing about. And he is hiding from a past he can’t fully remember.

good story but....
Reviewed: 08-13-18
This was my first Dean Koontz book. He tackles not just a couple evil events or evil people, but whole systems of evil, evil government entities, and even when evil is justified. The story was well played out but the long drawn out scenes and long drawn out psychological drama was too much for my taste. When authors do this it feels like they want the reader so desperately to understand and absorb the emotional struggle of the character, but I find it too much emotional drama.

Wait! It Mightn't Be What You Think--

The ending left me hanging
Reviewed: 08-07-18
The story is quite bizzar but the author is able to weave the characters to life brilliantly. However, the ending was a dissappointmet for me, left me without any real sense of resolution, just a vague hope for the characters' future. The essay at the end seemed to be just stuck on the end without any sense to it. I tried one other Atwood book and had a hard time with the long drawnout negative drama, should have remembered.
