Incomplete
Reviewed: 11-23-20
The recording is short, about only twelve minutes long, since the first quarter of the text is the publisher's legal disclaimer.
The text feels incomplete. The author covers 4 rooms: living room, kitchen, bedroom, and children's rooms. She doesn't cover the really difficult rooms, such as the basement and garage. The author makes about four suggestions for each room. It feels like an abbreviated house tour.
I was wondering why the author didn't make the effort to write a whole book when I saw the list of other publications by the author. It appears that the author sold her blogs as miniature books, rather than compiling them into one book with more substance.
Needed correction: In Chapter 6, the author advises that the reader sort their papers into 4 piles but identifies only one of them. It sounds like a caption or a couple of sentences are missing.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 120
Written by a social worker, popular educator, and member of the transgender community, this well-rounded resource combines an accessible portrait of transgenderism with a rich history of transgender life and its unique experiences of discrimination. Chapters introduce transgenderism and its psychological, physical, and social processes. They describe the coming out process and its effect on family and friends, the relationship between sexual orientation, and gender and the differences between transsexualism and lesser-known types of transgenderism.

With a rare mix of honesty, humor, and compassion, comedian and movie star Russell Brand mines his own wild story and shares the advice and wisdom he has gained through his 14 years of recovery. Brand speaks to those suffering along the full spectrum of addiction - from drugs, alcohol, caffeine, and sugar addictions to addictions to work, stress, bad relationships, digital media, and fame.

Reviewed: 10-10-16
This book was my first attempt to learn a programming language by audio book. I was able to follow what was being said. That's good.
The bad part is that it is not unabridged. Perhaps they only narrated the body text, but entire chapters were covered in one or two paragraphs. I found the PDF version and there is a lot of the content missing. It may be a introduction to the topic but it will not teach you XML by itself.
