Digestible information

Reviewed: 08-02-24

Really well put together, facts, details, thorough explanations. The summaries at the end of each chapter are very helpful wrap up especially audio book version.

I would recommend the audio book its very easy to follow considering how much information she covers, I probably would also get the book for info reference convenience as its harder to recall with the audio book.

Only critic is for the audiobook delivery experience to be improved: The chapters don’t match up to book chapters for finding where information is in the table of contents. Difficult to go back to reference information.

Good short story

Takes you along for the ride. well constructed easy listen. You feel for the characters and understand their pain without pages of description.

Nice listen/read

Reviewed: 07-21-23

Pleasant to listen to, very real seeming characters dignified and less so. Funny and ironic human experiences well captured and entertaining.
I think most could relate to in some form or another in familiar relationships as they change through struggle, time and circumstance.

Impactful examples people being their best, worst, and the somewhere in between.

I will miss these characters, I became so attached to them. It was so well built, the development of stories was meaningful and natural.
Very fun and touching also. It was so interesting how it captured love and loyalty from all aspects you may encounter in life.

I used both the audio narration and kindle version, it was a joy to read and the narration was great!

Who’s the idiot?

Reviewed: 04-27-23

So mindlessly idiotic and boring dialogue.
I kept waiting for some epiphany of understanding to why the characters are doing what they do and what relevance the back stories have to the current situation. I was grasping for deeper meaning of philosophy or wisdom. So I kept listening and ignoring the feeling I’m wasting time on this book, hoping to reach some resolution to the plot and then story just ended…and that’s when I realized.
I am the idiot.

Fun fights and adventure await!

Reviewed: 04-24-23

The descriptive nature of the adventure and fights are fun and exciting! Easy to step into the scenes and believe the scenarios.
Fast paced and fun, also with some interesting ideas to think about with social structures brief and add to the story.
The romance part was the only part I felt broke character with the main story and hero. 🤷‍♀️

Great story

Reviewed: 04-24-23

Very fun, each chapter is a complete story so it’s easy to break up such a long book. Though early on the book is harder to get through and the story progresses much fast towards the end so don’t get discouraged if you get confused with characters and who’s who, typically they get reintroduced and explained as they become relevant to the plot.

Made me grateful to live in America

Really interesting to hear before revolution sentiments. The trueness and practicality are well reasoned and I understand better the bravery that was required to undertake the revolution, for the sake of dying of only it was for hope that the next generation wouldn’t have to fight. I felt moved with gratitude.

the funny development of friendship through adventure

Reviewed: 04-23-23

It’s got dark times but thought out there’s a funny wit in the dialogue that lightens the hardship times. I thought the narrator was excellent… reading dialogue like this where the writing is trying to capture the sound of each character can be hard to read but the narrator spoke it clearly enough to be legible to the ear while still keeping the spirit of the language.
Very fun book.

Only baddies write manifestos

Reviewed: 04-21-23

I was expecting some astounding reasoning and persuasive ideas. It’s good to read just to see what the hype is about but I don’t think it’s a good read.


What I learned about communism:
I imagine anyone who is for communism is imagining themselves as boss of all the ants, not one of the ants and they either obey or die. So, I guess that would be utopia for king of the ants.

What I learned from this book:
Just ‘cause some olden time bro wrote something doesn’t mean it’s good.
