The book was ok. Not quite the satisfying end I was looking forward to in the trilogy. It seemed like Scalzi took the easy way out finishing the book.

One of my favorite authors. I always learn so much when reading one of his books. His research is excellent and his writing is entertaining.

A well-written take on “Time Travel”. It was just as much a lesson living your life to the fullest as traveling in time.

I enjoyed the writing of the author, but the story of personal goal(s) didn't really resonate with me. Her climbing stories were fun and being Alex Honnold's mother gave me a unique prospective into that world.

While I'm not a huge fan of Stephen King's work, I quite enjoyed this book. Part memoir, part writing guide, I walked away with a much better appreciation of writing and Mr. King in general Even if you have no intention of ever writing anything, this book is delightful and fun.

I opened this book without any preconceived notions. After finishing the book, it was one of the better books I've read in the last few months. While it wasn't a thriller, the title character keeps the book moving and the author's use of Russian history made the book a learning experience for me.

Peter returns to the Threshold Universe for another adventure. After his last book, Dead Moon, was a bit disappointing, he returns again to the Earth and provides a compelling, fast-paced story that was fun start to finish! Peter keeps you guessing from the get-go as he weaves previous content into new stories and builds on his existing universe. I can't wait to see what he comes up with next!

While I have no aspirations to be an actor. I found her book to be a fun read and an insight into what a struggling actor has to go through to find work and live that lifestyle. Her advice could easily be applied to many other professions and personal development.

Sinek's ideas in the book aren't new, just a rebranded version of Carol Dweck's book Mindset. But he does have a fresh take on the idea and plenty of examples to back it up. If you're a fan of his, it's typical of his style, so you will probably enjoy the book and get some good takeaways from it.

It has some interesting ideas for adventures to try. I wouldn't say it the Ultimate book, but it was a good read through to get ideas.

I couldn't do a review justice after reading Bill Gates one. Read his review! The only thing I'll add is this book isn't for everyone is very data driven. If you're looking for a book with a plot this isn't it. But the information he shares is thought provoking.

I always enjoy reading Neil Gaiman, oddly enough as soon as I finish one of his books, its like I forget about him till someone mentions him again. Which is a shame because he is such a great writing. He doesn't disappoint with this story. What starts out as an innocent book quickly escalates into a page turning drama told from the prospective of a curious 7 year old. His books always have the best descriptions for things and really teases the imagination.

While I did enjoy the writing the context was not what I like to read. Which made the book slow and drag on.

I've heard this was a must read for scifi fans, but I just never got into it.

I really wanted to love this book, but I just couldn't get 100% behind the premise. The writing style was great as always, the characters were engaging and likable. But the idea that 200 years from now we'd bury people on the moon sounds preposterous. I did like how Peter tied the book to the other 2, and hope he continues to write stories in this universe. It just wasn't my favorite book in the series.

While I enjoyed Dale's last book quite a bit, this one was a bit more flat for me. He had quite a few good things to say, but parts of his book didn't appeal to me and pulled me out of his narrative.

This is a book of Essays the author put together. The writers of the essays are successful people in many areas of study. I enjoyed listening to the stories of the peoples upbringing and how their career paths deviated and got them to the place that they are today. If you are looking to find some key traits in successful people reading this book will give you some insight as they all seem to have common threads connecting them.

It read like a college text book for me, with a bit more wit and humor. A few good concepts, but the outdated companies didn't seem relevant to me anymore.

I'm appending my original review. I picked this book back up when I was boarded one day and for some reason it clicked with me this time. What I think happened is I looked past the companies in the study to the message they were trying to get across. In the end I really enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone.

I was really looking forward to reading this book, and I have to say I was disappointed. I believe it lost something in the translation. I felt several times I was watching a subtitled movie and they would occasionally use the wrong word. Or they would use a work too often.

The Guest List was a book in the tradition of Agatha Christie. The author, Lucy Foley, did an admirable job of staging a murder with multiple suspects. Each having an intriguing backstory that made the book enjoyable and frustrating. Very rarely does a mystery book keep me guessing till the end, but Foley did just that. The only drawback was the ending felt too rushed. I wanted more from the characters after the big reveal.

Most of my friends loved this series. I did not. I finished the first book and the second and stopped. I'd had enough of Roland and this world.

Enjoyed the book. It was a short read and made me recall how well Rothfuss can write a story
