I expected more. This feels like a set of interesting, but not really that related stories and conclusions, that the author tried to link together through the concept of nexus. It reminds me of Gladwell's books.

I felt that the book is more comprehensive about the author's political struggle and life journey than about actual UFOs/UAPs. If you're looking to gain a fresh perspective on them, hear about lesser-known cases, or read an expert analysis on why they occur, you will be disappointed.

The book is quite captivating for a work in the corporate history/investigation genre. Readers looking for a deep dive into the technical issues plaguing the Boeing 737 MAX may be disappointed. Instead, it focuses on Boeing's history, especially since its merger with McDonnell Douglas. Those seeking an explanation of how a once-great engineering company could transform into one risking human lives to maximize shareholder and senior leadership equity will find this book compelling.

I enjoyed the first half of the book, which focuses on how the human brain works, the neocortex, the thousand brains theory, and artificial intelligence. However, the second part delves into subjects that are, in my opinion, less related, such as interplanetary colonization and ways to preserve human knowledge. I would have probably liked this book more if not for the latter part.

If you are reading this book primarily for hot dogs, you are going to be disappointed. This book feels like a long stand up, loosely tied around hot dogs, a mix of social commentary, personal reflection, and food criticism. To me, the highlight of the book is the brief history of competitive hot dog eating contests.

Saying it's a true crime book sells it way too short. It is a non-fiction book that is rich in the research, sources, and facts, but keeps you engaged like a novel.

"It's hard for me to live with me" is a very honest autobiography that goes into Rex's painful experiences with racism, addiction, pain, injuries etc. It is not a basketball-focused book, and when it is, it's focused more on his college career more than the NBA one.
