The first 50% was an uphill battle - some parts were interesting and most slow moving. Without my sister's encouragement that it gets better 1/2 way thru I would have stopped reading. I love the last half of the book and read that very quickly (took me 1 1/2 week to get thru the first 1/2 and 2 days to get thru the second).

A lot of small changes to implement but felt a bit overwhelming.

Loved this book. Writing is so good. I was very invested in the two main characters and loved all the insights into human behavior and the current news cycle.

Thought this was a great tool to help me help my kids develop executive skills and to remind me that some of these approaches I take for granted in myself are learned. Looking forward to implementing with the upcoming school year.

Can't wait to read Cress.

I thought this book would be bad. But it was really good☺.

This book is for someone who likes magic mixed with puzzle! This book is one of the best I have ever read.

It is unlike any book I have ever read. Or do I mean series?

I loved it I can't even explain how good it is !!!!!! So awesome it makes you think if your right about not having your breath taken away!

I enjoyed the concept and the book was enjoyable. A bit too predictable.

Love this series and this book did not disappoint - can't wait to start the next one

I had a hard time getting into this one but I persisted and was glad I did. It was a pretty depressing book and made me feel sad, angry, guilty... The book really highlights the mass amount of misunderstanding that often lies between people from different backgrounds.

I listened to the audiobook and found it a bit slow to get into but I LOVED it by the end. So many twists and turns and I came to really enjoy everyone in the story. Can't wait to read more by Kate Morton.

I agree with the review by Bob Milne - I loved the first 2/3 of the book. the last few Pendergast books were OK but this reminded me of the earlier books and the reason I fell in love with Pendergast and Preston Child. However, the last 1/3 felt awkward. I ended up rolling my eyes as I finished the last page. Disappointing finish to an otherwise well told interesting story. I gave this book a rating of 4 simple because of the first 2/3 of the book. I really enjoyed that.

I love this entire series and loved this book. Very sad that it is over. Can't wait to read all of them again with my younger son.

straight forward explanation and examples of using very small changes to change your habits

I absolutely adore Annie Ernaux's writing. I have loved everything she has written and this is no exception.

I really enjoyed this book. Has been on my list for awhile and glad I finally read it. Writing kept me engaged and I was guessing until the end. Looking forward to reading the others in the series.

I really wanted to like this book because I like the author but it was choppy, I had trouble relating to the characters and the ending is horrible.

Fantastic book! I listen to Brooke's podcast and find her very motivating. Whether you need to lose weight or not this book is great for embracing your feelings (instead of avoiding them) and realizing how your thoughts shape your reality.

listened to this on audio and loved it! Narration was fantastic. I felt like I knew the characters in the book, you don't find out who gets murdered until very close to the end - found myself guessing someone different throughout the book. Serious topics discussed in a fun approachable manner. If you are married and or have kids you will find something to relate to in this book.

When I started reading the book I loved the way she described everything - pretty poetic for the genre. It kept my interest and I couldn't stop reading. About half way through it was feeling slow, I had that feeling of “I'm only half way!” 3/4 of the way through I knew “who dunnit” and the last 1/4 was very slow and when everything wrapped up it still went on. I'm trying to decide if I want to read another one of her books. I ended the book feeling a little blah. However, as I said previously, the writing was beautiful in parts and because of that I may give another book a chance.

“Something else is needed if the wisdom is going to make any real difference in our lives. The “Warrior” needs to rise up.”
I enjoyed this book. There really aren't new ideas in here but I like Lisa's voice. I also enjoyed the format - each chapter is a core essential and lists specific ideas on how to achieve that essential in your life. The end of the book emphasizes that i. Order to feel better you need to make small steps. Pick a core essential and work thru it one step at a time. I love the direction the book gives and the fact that you are given the freedom to implement it in a way that will fit your particular situation.

Typical Gillian Flynn - dark and disturbing but unable to put it down. I have a feeling of dread when reading her books but I can't put them down. If I didn't have to sleep or work I would have finished earlier than I did. I do love her books and have now read all of them. Eagerly awaiting the next.

WOW. Dark. I was almost finished and had to take a break because I couldn't bear to go forward. Picked it back up and made it through.

Good and brief summary of the GTD system.

one of my favorite books of all time. The writing is beautiful. I felt so connected to the characters in the book. It was one of those books where you mourn the loss of reading it when your done.
