Great book. I was looking through the inspirational book section at the bookstore and saw this one. I thought to myself I liked her first book and would like to read this one. Got it through the library and it has been great, detailing her life about overcoming every obstacle she came across. This is very much an inspirational book and somewhat relatable to me at this moment in time.

Good continuation of the story. 3.5 stars. Insurance plot line was okay. Felt like the author wanted to give a happy ending to everyone.

Saw the first episode and thought to read the book first. Elizabeth is a progressive woman in the 1960’s. Because it’s set there, there is a lot of commentary on her values and views of the world. It got to the point that it was just too much for me. Saving grace for most of the book was the character of Six Thirty. I would much rather hear their inner thoughts as they go about their day.

Gives us insight on what Suki went through. Gives a little hope, even when feeling all alone.

Cute book persevering in something that interests you even though people don’t like it.

Been wanting to read it for a bit. Some parts were boring but overall great book. Quite intense emotions for me in some parts. Really got into some of parts, specially the ending having to do with the “courtroom stuff”.

Took a bit to get in to it. But loved all the antics the boys got into. Dinosaurs? What? Fun story with great information even if fiction, gets you wondering about the time period.

Couldn’t get through it. Kept slogging through, just didn’t quite get my attention.

Still as good as the first time I read it.

Cute story about protecting what has provided and protected you.

I agree to most of what the author’s say. That parents need to engage more with their children so that they don’t veer off when engaging more and more with peers. It just felt like, yes this is something that we have to do and it’s good to be reminded from time to time. But they just kept saying it over and over and got me thinking about the parents that don’t have time for this. Yes they want to be with their children but work and responsibilities keep them for it.

Long book but worth it. At times I didn’t understand it but got the gist of it from context. Rodion is at times a little too in his head but that is the point - trying to get to his breaking point or him trying to avoid it.

Insightful book on what trauma can make someone have different disorders. Liked that there was both patient and life experience brought into the book. Also te exercises one can do to overcome this.

Inspirational story about overcoming adversity by just being a regular bloke who happens to be blind. I liked it switching between 9-11 and him being younger at each chapter, kept it interesting, but sometimes it was a bit too much.

Got the audiobook through the library. Might have to read/hear this again. Interesting outcomes in situations on how people think. These studies were interesting specially the one about risk taking vs risk aversion. I can tell I’m already the latter.

Coco always helping others and making sure others do the same. Gotta love her.

Liked how they portrayed Harry being supportive to Asta during and after the pregnancy.

Kept me on my toes trying to figure out how each case will be solved. The legion is getting plucky.

Started slow but liked the magic system it implemented. Showed that war is always two sides to a coin. You can explain it away one way or another but ultimately choosing destruction.

Enjoyed the book. Fun to get out of the town they were in but then they kind of just stayed in one spot. Having not gone there doesn’t really give me nostalgia vibes but for someone that has been there at Cornell this will give them familiarity I would think.

Second read through, still good. Have a better understanding of some of the things Odd has gone through now that I’ve previously read the books.

I feel like Lewis’ way of trying to explain things went over my head for much of it. Overall I liked the book as he had some interesting points. Maybe I’ll reread it at a later time and understand it a bit more.

Inspiring message from Scovel Shinn. Can be transformative if you let it but great self improvement information. This book shows tat manifestation is possible, but I feel that you also need to be proactive in the idea so that it is both faith and actions through your way of life.

Took a while to finish. World building was great but a bit sluggish at times as I read through it.

Didn’t want to read it at first but glad I did. I was too young to see the struggles my parents made when they came to the USA. This book reminded me of that.
