Story
Can’t Hurt Me, David Goggins’ smash hit memoir, demonstrated how much untapped ability we all have but was merely an introduction to the power of the mind. In Never Finished, Goggins takes you inside his Mental Lab, where he developed the philosophy, psychology, and strategies that enabled him to learn that what he thought was his limit was only his beginning and that the quest for greatness is unending.

What is this!!!!
Reviewed: 11-16-23
I don’t know how to describe this book. Saying it is great is understatement . What I love most is that Goggins is pushing us to be our best selves and not his followers or fan boys. This was an incredible experience .

Story
Chase the Lion is more than a catch phrase; it’s a radically different approach to life. It’s only when we stop fearing failure that we can fully seize opportunity by the mane. With grit and gusto, New York Times best-selling author Mark Batterson delivers a bold message to everyone with a big dream. This is a wake-up call to stop living as if the purpose of life was to simply arrive safely at death. Our dreams should scare us. They should be so big that without God they would be impossible to achieve.

Has your mind been hacked?
Reviewed: 01-17-17
If you could sum up Elixir Project in three words, what would they be?
This story is so scary because you don't know what's real and what's made-up sci fi. It's absolutely awesome. It starts slow, but then it's pure fire.
Who was your favorite character and why?
The main character, Sienna Lewis.
Which scene was your favorite?
Too many to list, but there's one scene where they are competing in a pool of cerebral fluid. I can't imagine how nasty that must be!
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Have you been hacked?
Any additional comments?
It's so hard for me to describe this book. Not only is it a sci-fi thriller, but now I'm questioning so many things in this world. And I'm wondering if my mind has been hacked. It's hard to describe "hack" without listening to this book, but the concept is incredible. This will definitely be made into a movie soon! So worth it! Phenomenal characters, scenes, and story!
