Story4.5 out of 5 stars 50
According to US Secretary of War Henry Stimson, the "most shocking single event" of World War II was not the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, but rather the fall of France in spring 1940. Michael Neiberg offers a dramatic history of the American response - a policy marked by panic and moral ineptitude, which placed the United States in league with fascism and nearly ruined the alliance with Britain.

A new perspective on World War II
Reviewed: 07-22-23
I had no idea before reading this that the Franco-American relationship after the fall of France in 1940 was so delicate and how desperate America wanted to keep Vichy neutral after the war. I was definitely overwhelmed by this book it truly did leave me surprised with all that was covered.
I highly recommend this book!!!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 66
In December of 2014, Lisa Ann shocked the adult world with the news of her retirement. The choice to leave the industry she loved wasn’t an easy one, but a different kind of fantasy was calling her name: fantasy sports. Now Lisa Ann is ready to reveal herself in a new way. From her youthful days as a rebellious teen and a dancer in Philadelphia to her arrival in Los Angeles and into the world of porn; from her years as a business owner to her return to the adult industry as the face of the MILF revolution.

The real Lisa ann
Reviewed: 06-09-22
First of all Lisa ann is and always will be the reason why I have always found older women attractive. But after listening to her audiobook and hearing about her life in Pennsylvania all the way to her massive success with nailing Palin and everything in between. She is so much stronger then I had ever imagined. I see her now as a human being rather than just a former porn star. Her book is enlightening in the sense that it details everything she’s experienced and overcomes in her life not to mention some of the lesser known aspects of her career whether she’s feature dancing or shooting content in the industry. I recommend this book if you’ve ever seen any of Lisa ann’s content or you are just interested in learning about the real her.

Story5 out of 5 stars 9,746
Black Americans have long been shackled to the Democrats. Seeing no viable alternative, they have watched liberal politicians take the Black vote for granted without pledging anything in return. In Blackout, Owens argues that this automatic allegiance is both illogical and unearned. She contends that the Democrat Party has a long history of racism and exposes the ideals that hinder the Black community’s ability to rise above poverty, live independent and successful lives, and be an active part of the American dream.

This book single-handedly has change the way I will view news read information and in all honesty how I look at the Democratic Party as well as the republican party of the United States of America. Candace Owens has caused a major Epiphany for me. I highly recommend you read this book if you’re going through a major political and ideological shift like I am or you’re just wanting to learn more about the political perspective from the conservative side of the aisle. This book it is extremely enlightening!!!

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 295
When Japan attacked the United States in 1941, argues Eri Hotta, its leaders, in large part, understood they were entering a conflict they were bound to lose. Availing herself of rarely consulted material, Hotta poses essential questions overlooked by historians in the seventy years since: Why did these men - military men, civilian politicians, diplomats, the emperor - put their country and its citizens in harm's way? Why did they make a decision that was doomed from the start?

Extremely Enlightening, Definitely worth re-reading
Reviewed: 03-24-21
Without question this book has given me a clear picture on the Japanese mindset in the months leading up to the decision to go to war with United States as well as the interwar years between the first and second world wars. I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants a more in-depth look at how the war started not just on the battlefield but in the minds of the Japanese people and its government’s leaders.

You are a step away from learning how to practice BDSM the healthy way, including new submissive and total dominance techniques for submissive women and their alphas! According to the Journal of Sex Research, about 47 to 60 percent of the people have fantasized of dominating someone sexually. What’s more, a slightly bigger number of women than men are aroused by the idea of being dominated!

Very informative definitely worth re-reading

For someone who has had an interest in BDSM this book has definitely helped enlighten me when it comes to becoming more knowledgeable about this whole scene. BDSM is not so black-and-white as I thought and I definitely plan on re-reading this book to make sure I have a full understanding of everything about this world.
