The Unexpected Joy of the Ordinary theorises that the solution is rediscovering the joy in the ordinary that we so often now forget to feel. Because we now expect the pleasure of a croissant, a hot shower, a yoga class, someone delivering our shopping to our door, we no longer feel its buzz. The joy of it whips through us like a bullet train, without pause. Catherine Gray was a grandmaster in the art of eye-rolling the ordinary and skilled in everlasting reaching. Until the black dog of depression forced her to rethink everything.

Happiness is in you
Revisado: 10-30-20
This is her second book that I’ve listened to. Her sobriety journey helped me achieve mine and I think for many of us, achieving sobriety is tinged with wanting more. Wanting more is inevitable I find… Finding happiness and joy and reminding ourselves that our brain power is stacked against us is what she shares with us in an always amusing and not saccharine way. If you are looking to find more joy in your life and perhaps your sobriety I highly recommend this book. Oh, it’s not just for women...

A memoir of unblinking honesty and poignant, laugh-out-loud humor, Blackout is the story of a woman stumbling into a new kind of adventure - the sober life she never wanted. For Sarah Hepola, alcohol was "the gasoline of all adventure". She spent her evenings at cocktail parties and dark bars where she proudly stayed till last call. But there was a price. Publicly, she covered her shame with self-deprecating jokes, and her career flourished, but as the blackouts accumulated, she could no longer avoid a sinking truth.

Read It If

If you’ve ever struggled with alcohol. Especially if you’ve ever experienced a black out or 42 you must read this book. A beautiful harrowing and ultimately uplifting story filled with pain experience and hope.

For the first time, Hillary Rodham Clinton reveals what she was thinking and feeling during one of the most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections in history. Now free from the constraints of running, Hillary takes you inside the intense personal experience of becoming the first woman nominated for president by a major party in an election marked by rage, sexism, exhilarating highs and infuriating lows, stranger-than-fiction twists, Russian interference, and an opponent who broke all the rules. This is her most personal memoir yet.

Fascinating, funny, infuriating and sad.
Revisado: 09-17-17
Hearing this from was a pretty amazing experience. I sometimes wish that Hillary had had an acting coaches instead of debate coaches. But the stories from the campaign or enlightening and horrifying. Sure she gets off some zingers and sure, it isn't easy to relate to her getting R&R at wealthy friends are talking about her vaulted ceiling in her bedroom but that's her life and she certainly doesn't mince words about what her life is like and who her friends are. It's a peek into why we are in the mess we are in now. She fesses up, she assigns blame, and she admits her frailties. A wonderful account and of course it's from her perspective. That's not a criticism that is worthy of a memoir. Highly recommend it if one wants to examine how this American tragedy occurred.
