Edwin St. Andrew is eighteen years old when he crosses the Atlantic by steamship, exiled from polite society following an ill-conceived diatribe at a dinner party. He enters the forest, spellbound by the beauty of the Canadian wilderness, and suddenly hears the notes of a violin echoing in an airship terminal—an experience that shocks him to his core.

Enjoyable, if Predictable, Pandemic-Themed Novel
Revisado: 05-30-24
I really liked the start of this novel. It had some compelling, well-thought-out characters, and raised some interesting philosophical questions. Unfortunately, it got a bit predictable toward the middle. I will also admit, I'm not sure how much I enjoy pandemic-themed content, particularly as it primarily focused on the panic / frightening end of days aspects of it. Overall, an okay read, worth giving a shot if you have a little time.

At the heart of countless crimes lie the mysteries of the human mind. In this eye-opening book, Dr. Cheryl Paradis draws back the curtain on the fascinating world of forensic psychology, and revisits the most notorious and puzzling cases she has handled in her multifaceted career. Her riveting, sometimes shocking stories reveal the crucial and often surprising role forensic psychology plays in the pursuit of justice - in which the accused may truly believe their own bizarre lies, creating a world that pushes them into committing horrific, violent crimes.

Insightful Tour of a Career as an Expert Witness
Revisado: 05-29-24
This was a great book narrating a robust career of an Expert Witness Legal/Forensic Psychologist. It wasn't as clinical as I expected which was excellent. It was more "personal-narrative" driven, with the author describing her trips on the subway, aspects of rooms she interviewed in that she liked or disliked, her personal feelings of excitement, anxiety, being proven right, skepticism, etc. regarding her work. It is a little dated now, since the DSM-5 came out just a year or two after the publication of this book but it is still plenty accurate with largely modern forensic assessment tools in employ. Despite that, it remains a wonderful insight into the career one can make as a Forensic Psychologist working for the courts.

In the 21st century, Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) remains one of the key figures in the field of analytical psychology - and Psychological Types, or The Psychology of Individuation, published in 1921, is one of his most influential works. It was written during the decade after the publication of Psychology of the Unconscious (1912), which effectively ended his friendship and collaboration with Sigmund Freud.

Obviously good, but very heavy
Revisado: 11-22-22
This is a listen with which you likely shouldn't do anything else while listening. It is dense, but it is a foundational text and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the field of personality psychology or the fundamentals of Meyers-Briggs.

In 1910, 11-year-old Iris Villarca lives with her father at Rawblood, a lonely house on Dartmoor. Iris and her father are the last of their name. The Villarcas always die young, bloodily. Iris knows it's because of a congenital disease that means she must be strictly isolated. Papa told her so. Forbidden to speak to other children or the servants, denied her one friend, Iris grows up in solitude. But she reads books. And one sunlit autumn day, beside her mother's grave, she forces the truth from her father. The disease is biologically impossible. A lie to cover a darker secret.

Excellent! Don't worry about the time jumps
Revisado: 06-08-22
An excellent story. One of the best modern gothic horrors I have consumed. Don't listen to those whining about the time jumps. They are very explicitly announced, the order / description of the times are well stated, and they even have different narrators when a different character is providing their perspective. Those complaining seem like they've never listened to an audiobook before. Absolutely worth a listen if you are a fan of ghosts, 19th-20th century, and psychological thrillers.
