About this listen
First off, I'm not a violent man. Quite the opposite. I didn't even kill anyone until I was forty-two.
Björn has been given an ultimatum: repair his work-life balance, or his wife Katharina will leave him - and take their daughter.
He reluctantly starts a mindfulness class and to his surprise, it's a revelation. He becomes calmer, more focused, and he's starting to understand what's really important in life. So when his client and brutal crime boss Dragan Sergowicz tries to interfere with his precious family time, Björn remembers his new-found goal to find serenity - and kills him.
Now Björn can deepen his practice and calm his mind. Be here, now. Take a breath. And kill again . . .
'A razor-sharp satire on stressed-out modern society, a darkly comic and hugely entertaining crime thriller and - believe it or not - also a handy guide to improving your life through mindfulness.' ROBBIE MORRISON, author of EDGE OF THE GRAVE
'A violent, feel-good rampage of a book where the pace and positivity never let up. Twisted and hilarious!' CALLUM MCSORLEY, author of SQUEAKY CLEAN

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
Separated by 10 years, 3,000 miles, and the unrelenting stresses of adulthood, best friends Janet and Serena plan a 40th birthday girls’ trip to reconnect. But after a massive crash, they’re the only survivors to wash ashore on an uncharted Caribbean Island. Armed with only the clothes on their backs and zero survival skills, they fight to overcome hunger, thirst, deadly wildlife—and most terrifyingly—decades of accrued resentment. Can they find their way home, or will they kill each other first?

Story
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Great Listen
Hooked from the opening paragraph. Narrator was perfect for the character. I related to so many innuendoes and broke out laughing during the reading. Folks in the grocery store must have thought me nuts (phone blue tooth to hearing aids). I loved it!

This was great!
I usually don't listen to fiction and would prefer a "self-Help" style book on mindfulness, but we watched the series on Netflix and found it very entertaining. I immediately looked for the book and thoroughly enjoyed an amusing take on applying mindfulness to everyday life. The reader was great and used different voices for each character, which I also really enjoyed. I wish there was more to this series, because it was really good.

Witty, Humorous, Entertaining, & Insightful
After seeing the Netflix adaptation of this novel for the screen, I was pleased to find that its release coincided with the releases of its translation into English, and this audiobook. For fans of the screen version, you’ll be happy to hear that it is quite well adapted from the novel without any significant changes. The authors vision for this book is satisfying; serving wit, humor, and mindfulness in equal measure.
