James Clear, one of the world's leading experts on habit formation, reveals practical strategies that will teach you exactly how to form good habits, break bad ones, and master the tiny behaviors that lead to remarkable results.

Actionable strategies for shifting the trajectory of your life
Reviewed: 01-11-24
I have ADHD- and I like many people with low executive functioning who feel dissatisfied with where their life is leading, it can be tempting to scheme big swift changes to “right the ship.” What this book does beautifully, is soothe that temptation by explaining the science behind habit and routine formation and creating small actionable strategies for becoming the person I punished myself for not being. I credit this book for inspiring such life altering habits as: doing all the dishes before going to bed, setting goals and checking in on them daily, and never missing two days in a row. I have not miraculously become the dream version of myself, but I am 6 months closer, and that to me feels huge.

What if you’ve sworn to protect the one you were born to destroy? Tarisai has always longed for the warmth of a family. She was raised in isolation by a mysterious, often absent mother known only as the Lady. The Lady sends her to the capital of the global empire of Aritsar to compete with other children to be chosen as one of the crown prince’s Council of Eleven. If she’s picked, she’ll be joined with the other council members through the Ray, a bond deeper than blood. That closeness is irresistible to Tarisai. But the Lady has other ideas....

Wow. Jordan Ifueko can BUILD A WORLD. I finished Raybearer several days ago and I feel homesick for Aristar and all its realms. She has created a multitude of distinct cultures so vivid you’d swear they were real... this book packs in the familiar and satisfying themes of belonging, coming of age, and justice but delivers them with dazzling new characters, cultures, customs and magic. It’s all at once lusciously familiar and dazzlingly fresh. In addition- the performance by Joniece Abbott-Pratt is phenomenal. She brings dozens of characters to life with skill and specificity! It’s a delight to listen to. I can’t wait for the next one!
