About this listen
★★★★★ "An interesting take on humanities future!" - Reader Review
___
A fresh take on science fiction and a glimpse at humanity through the eyes of an alien who doesn't know what 'family' is, until he finds one!
"Humans are the only known intelligent species to actively create 'Found Families' in the form of parents, children, siblings, and more.
If a human starts spending more time with you and initiating physical contact, they have probably adopted you."
These were the words that caught my ears when attending the most prestigious university in my quadrant as a minor in alien studies.
My intrigue led me to major in the study of humans, a new race to emerge into the galactic political scene, and one that had already in a mere fifty years, captured the imaginations of numerous races.
So when the chance came to go to Earth to study them up close, to live with a human host family known to our professor, I took it.
Inside the pages of these journals, you will find the record of my observations and experiences with human beings.
More than that, you will find how what began as a curiosity that would make for an easy career in a narrow field, changed my life forever, in all the very best of ways.
That's what happens I suppose, when you're adopted by humans.

Most of us are never taught how to work with our minds. We learn to memorize facts, solve problems, or suppress feelings. But no one hands us the tools to pause, observe, and reshape our internal dialogue. As a result, our thoughts often run wild, driven by anxiety, guilt, fear, or scarcity. And when your inner world is in chaos, your outer world reflects it. But here’s the truth: You are not your thoughts. You are the observer, the creator, the one who can step back, choose a different perspective, and shift your energy. Positive Thinking Unlocked was born from a deep desire to help you ...

Then midway through the story Doggo runs to the government with a childish authoritarian plea to solve interpersonal social issues. It is clumsy given the level of education Woofy has and a missed opportunity to showcase his alien talents.
On side note, the book makes good use of virtual voice. It made me think that I was listening to a translation of the barks and howls for the main character.
Half a Good Book
