Long stories of powerful personalities from a liberal point of view
Revisado: 09-28-23
Caro writes very long prose about two powerful people from a left leaning view point. While deeply researched asking about the people affected he never seems to be able to bring to conclusion what the long term effects of the changes these men made. Example: Johnson passed education bills, and spending went up but were students bettered? Did more spending and federal government control produce better education? Caro what were the outcomes?

Historia
Turning the other cheek does not mean standing by while the enemies of God dismantle Christian civilization and brainwash our children. Decrying the cowardice that masquerades as meekness, Eric Metaxas summons the Church to battle. An attenuated and unbiblical “faith” based on what Bonhoeffer called “cheap grace” has sapped the spiritual vitality of millions of Americans. Paying lip service to an insipid “evangelism,” they shrink from combating the evils of our time. Metaxas refutes the pernicious lie that fighting evil politicizes Christianity.

Historia
Thirty-nine was a fantastic year. I was married to the man I loved. I had a body that worked without creaking. My grandma, who raised me, was still healthy, and life was pretty damned good. But as they say, all good things come to an end. One year later, I’m a widow. My joints are starting to ache. Gram is in the nursing home, and dead people think my home is some kind of supernatural bed-and-breakfast. Gluing body parts onto semi-transparent people has become a side job - deceased people I’m not even sure are actually there.

Not even good fantasy
Revisado: 06-12-23
Pretty stupid story with totally emotional driven actions. Not plausible and pretty goofy. Find something to believe in

Zelda Reynolds has a secret identity as “The Break-Up Artist”, the infamous ender of relationships. Don’t want to end your relationship yourself? Just tell Zelda through her website and she’ll get the job done like a pro. Her online business isn’t paying the bills yet, but at least it’s an escape from her real life, where her boss steals her best ideas, her dates are all duds, and her dad just married someone her own age. When Zelda starts falling for the recipient of one of her snarkiest letters yet, will she have the courage to tell him the truth?

The future of books
Revisado: 09-16-22
If you don’t know if your male or female, think you can chose and are all for letting people have surgeries then you might like this poorly conceived book. I am insulted by pronouns and Audible should let you know in the description.

Historia
“Homecoming” takes us back to Ford County, the fictional setting of many of John Grisham’s unforgettable stories. Jake Brigance is back, but he’s not in the courtroom. He’s called upon to help an old friend, Mack Stafford, a former lawyer in Clanton, who three years earlier became a local legend when he stole money from his clients, divorced his wife, filed for bankruptcy, and left his family in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again—until now. Now Mack is back, and he’s leaning on his old pals, Jake and Harry Rex, to help him return. His homecoming does not go as planned.

Grisham’s cash cows
Revisado: 08-16-22
Grisham is a fine writer and writes enjoyable stories some of which are typically stereotyped. You can always count on plenty of shenanigans dirty dealing and liberal politics. Perhaps he’s done more for my distaste for lawyers and questioning the police than anyone else. One of these days a genuinely good character will appear and we’ll all be shocked. 😆

Historia
Since the original publication of Nudge more than a decade ago, the title has entered the vocabulary of businesspeople, policy makers, engaged citizens, and consumers everywhere. The book has given rise to more than 200 "nudge units" in governments around the world and countless groups of behavioral scientists in every part of the economy. It has taught us how to use thoughtful "choice architecture" - a concept the authors invented - to help us make better decisions for ourselves, our families, and our society.

Libertarian Economics?
Revisado: 09-25-21
If the authors has left out their left wing politics on climate change they would have an excellent book; however, in the extended time spent on climate change they abandoned their libertarian view for left wing socialism, big government, taxes and wealth redistribution. Perhaps if had advocated for equal distribution of conservative faculty members and the abolishment of tenure they would have accomplished more than the tax and reward policies that smack of socialism not libertarian beliefs. Skip this book and read “Misbehaving” instead.

Needing bigger and bolder stories
Revisado: 06-01-21
Author seems to need bigger and more unbelievable story lines which usually happens when ideas are lacking. Some how I felt like like this was a book mill book, just needing to fulfill a contract or make a few bucks. Combining two super heroes doesn’t always make a better story. Roby and Real arrive at just the right moments but it isn’t really believable. Balducci is a good author but somehow this one fell flat. I like the characters but put them into a more believable situation please.

Book needed better marketing
Revisado: 02-16-19
This the story of how major marketing leaders view and accomplish their work. I gave the book a lower score for a couple of reasons. First the editors should have used female voices for the female leaders. It would have made for a better listen. Second only a couple of CMO mentioned the importance of product and the value proposition of what they were marketing. I realize it’s all about channels, messaging and distribution but product quality needs to be discussed and it will ultimately determine success and failure. Book was too long to many stories of the same “I do this and this” and not much new creativity. Certainly nothing in depth about struggles, challenges or failures.
