Don’t bother

Revisado: 01-29-24

I didn’t like the narrator especially when she tried to talk in a male voice. This story is ridiculous and I’m sorry I wasted my time with it. I finished it given all the great reviews but the storyline just got more ridiculous as it went on.

Underwhelming

Revisado: 04-06-22

The narration was stilted and the voice sounded juvenile.
The writing was too basic and underwhelming.
The story was predictable. All the elements of a fiction writing checklist were ticked off - love, tragedy, triumph, regret but it still made for a dull read.

Beautifully written and read

Revisado: 10-16-21

A poignant memoir that is at times funny and heart wrenching. A very intimate and personal look back on an extraordinary life. As someone who grew up in Dublin this book was a lovely piece of nostalgia. It was even better to hear it read by the author. Loved it! Highly recommended!

Thorough analysis

Revisado: 06-28-21

A thorough analysis of the tedious and at times disheartening work of human rights lawyers. Kudos to Mr. Sfard and all the other lawyers for their relentless pursuit of justice. Also an enlightening recounting of the disregard of Israel for international law and regretfully the mostly unconditional support of the US. Well written and highly recommended.

Enlightening

Revisado: 05-17-21

This is one of those books that will stay with me for a long time. The personal anecdotes were meaningful and enlightening. The history was disturbing. So smart to compare racism in the US to the caste system in India. The similarities are undeniable. I think I have been enlightened by this. Thank you

Heartfelt and impactful

Revisado: 05-17-21

Well written intimate portrayal of the misery of addiction. This book shows in brutal detail how addiction does not discriminate. Also an inspiring story of a family full of love and support for each other.

Rewriting history

Revisado: 05-04-21

This book seems to be an act of contrition for the former speaker. He harshly criticizes the most prominent of Republican bad actors of recent times but conspicuously omits those who had the most lasting, insidious and widespread impact like Limbaugh, Hannity and Gingrich. Boehner’s revisionist history is laughable as he recalls Obama’s vow to work with Republicans but I guess he forgot McConnell’s vow to make Obama a one term president. The devout Catholic who was so moved by the US visit of Pope Francis had no qualms, Christian or otherwise, of obstructing and later dismantling a healthcare plan for millions of people who needed it. Boehner reassures us throughout that he is a good and moral politician but his actions belie this.
His narration is stilted and he seems ill at ease reading his own material. This is truly a work of audacious fable.

Best Trump book

Revisado: 10-14-20

Of the many Trump books that I have read this is by far the best. It is thorough with meticulous attention to detail which I suspect is how Strzok performed as an FBI agent. It also reaffirms similar accounts from Comey, McCabe and many others.
After reading this I feel an overwhelming sense of loss for all of the dedicated, talented and patriotic public servants who have been so vindictively treated by this crime boss in the White House.

Could have been

Revisado: 08-19-16

This book started off as an investigative, well researched piece but then for some inexplicable reason became consumed with the Clintons and their dreadful deeds. I couldn't even finish the last few chapters. Very disappointing.
