Story
After defecting from North Korea, Yeonmi Park found liberty and freedom in America. But she also found a chilling crackdown on self-expression and thought that reminded her of the brutal regime she risked her life to escape. When she spoke out about the mass political indoctrination she saw around her in the United States, Park faced censorship and even death threats.

Wonderfully written enthralling telling of life in our current society from the experience of a young woman who escaped North Korea. One can read this without reading her first book however I do recommend the first book which gives better details of her childhood & escape & survival & thriving after unimaginable horrors. I did not care for the audio narrator much too breathy and lacked appropriate emotion in the telling of the story. However still an excellent book!

Story
The crucifixion and resurrection of Christ are central events in our salvation. Yet few Christians have a good grasp of the first-century historical and religious context in which the crucifixion took place, nor of its true significance for the people of that time - and hence for our time as well. Biblical scholar and attorney Dr. Jeannie Constantinou puts modern listeners in the center of the events of Christ's Passion, bringing the best of modern scholarship to bear while keeping her interpretation faithful in every particular to the Orthodox tradition.

King of Glory
Reviewed: 04-04-23
This is the best book I’ve ever read regarding the Passion of Christ! The author exhibits her in depth research & knowledge historically & theologically in a format that is easy for the average person to grasp.
She’s answered many questions I had previously not understood. The book itself is fantastic but I really enjoyed the author’s reading of it on Audible. Her pace and annunciation make it very enjoyable.

Story
The Bodies of Others is about how we came to the harrowing civilizational crossroads at which we find ourselves—engaged in a war against vast impersonal forces with limitless power over our lives and which threaten the freedoms we have always taken for granted. In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Naomi Wolf shows how these forces—from Big Tech and Big Pharma to the CCP and our oligarchical elites—seized upon two years of COVID-19 panic in sinister new ways, to not only undermine our republic but to fundamentally reorient human relations.

Naomi does an excellent job encapsulating the covid lockdown progression, it’s personal effects as well as those on the community big & small. An extremely intelligent woman she meticulously documents facts and supporting scientific data which has sadly been suppressed and must be made known.

This is a book about hope in the midst of a polarized culture. Camosy begins with a hopeful starting point in the midst of a crumbling US political culture: two of every three Americans constitute an “exhausted majority” who reject right/left polarization and are open to alternative viewpoints.

Love the idea not executed well

The title , thesis and conclusion are inspiring however most everything in between, although allegedly giving two sides, is clearly weighted on the writers bias with many generalizations unsubstantiated statistics.
