Not all sci fi stories
Reviewed: 04-01-25
This collection feels like it was compiled by an AI. Not all of these stories are sci fi. Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde can at least (just barely) claim to have science elements, but The Great God Pan is a horror-themed mystery with a supernatural focus. It has as much in common with teen romance as it does with sci fi. Audio editing is shoddy throughout, especially near the end. DO NOT SPEND A CREDIT ON THIS.

Story
The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Within the black-and-white striped canvas tents is an utterly unique experience full of breathtaking amazements. It is called Le Cirque des Rêves, and it is only open at night. But behind the scenes, a fierce competition is underway - a duel between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, who have been trained since childhood expressly for this purpose by their mercurial instructors.

Don't believe the hype
Reviewed: 06-20-21
This book is 90% descriptions of clothes, parties or circus acts. Disappointing story and plot.

Story
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
