Lame.
Reviewed: 09-30-24
I was looking for ways to fight false accusations which are rampant in our post #metoo society and I got an earful from a man just rambling on about his own case and his own achievements and how great he is. Who cares! I don’t care how you met Epstein. I care that my step father has been wrongfully convicted on made up lies from 30 years ago with no proof and still no one would believe him. Lame.

On August 13, 1986, just one day after his 32nd birthday, Michael Morton went to work at his usual time. By the end of the day, his wife Christine had been savagely bludgeoned to death in the couple's bed - and the Williamson County Sherriff's office in Texas wasted no time in pinning her murder on Michael, despite an absolute lack of physical evidence. Michael was swiftly sentenced to life in prison for a crime he had not committed

Thank you for sharing your story. My step father just went through a horrible trial. It is a modern day witch hunt, he is innocent but a jury chose guilty. We are just beginning this fight. Thank you for sharing your story. Well written and prayers for change!

There’s a lot to unpack in this story so it takes time to get through it. But the longer you listen the better it gets for sure.

Craig was entertaining and motivating. I enjoyed his stories although his humor is a little cheesy ;-). He was fun to listen to and I guess it’s teje pastor on him making him a bit cheesy.

Essentialism is more than a time-management strategy or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter.

Greg was easy to listen to and I found the is material very intriguing. I believe that to integrate this into my daily life it will require many more readings. But I look forward to visiting this one again and again. Thank you for your research. I truly felt seen as I read this and am learning to implement it for myself and my life.

Reviewed: 07-24-18
I liked this book. There were great reminders and the reading is ok. I’m not a fan of the slang English so often “Girl, you know what I’m talking about”. It felt a little like high school chat. She has a great story and is authentic in sharing her experiences. But, for me, it was a great reminder of things I need to do better. No huge ah-has here. Decent reading, listened to it at 1.5.

Jeannette Walls grew up with parents whose ideals and stubborn nonconformity were both their curse and their salvation. Rex and Rose Mary Walls had four children. In the beginning, they lived like nomads, moving among Southwest desert towns, camping in the mountains. Rex was a charismatic, brilliant man who, when sober, captured his children's imagination. Rose Mary painted and wrote and couldn't stand the responsibility of providing for her family; she called herself an "excitement addict."
