All time favorite book!

This was an absolutely amazing book. I am frequently in search of a book that people say keeps them thinking about it long after they’re read it. Perfect Peace is definitely that book. I laughed and I cried! It might be my favorite book of all time.

Historia
“The Heron” is the nickname a big-city accountant has attached to himself in his new home near San Diego, where he’s using the alias to avoid a hit man who may be after him. It seems a former client believes that The Heron has skipped town with several million dollars not his own. Don Winslow’s ensuing, entertaining yarn is by turns twisty, dark, and comical as we observe the delicate dance between the pursuer and the pursued.

Historia
Philosopher, Broadway headliner, fighter, felon - Mike Tyson has defied stereotypes, expectations, and a lot of conventional wisdom during his three decades in the public eye. Bullied as a boy in the toughest, poorest neighborhood in Brooklyn, Tyson grew up to become one of the most thrilling and ferocious boxers of all time - and the youngest heavyweight champion ever. But his brilliance in the ring was often compromised by reckless behavior.

Excellent book!!!
Revisado: 03-13-22
This was a very good book. Mike is very transparent in this book. He is brutally honest and is very authentic. Some of the reviewers said that he was vulgar and boastful. However, I disagree. He gives you an unvarnished look at his life. Some of that life is very hard to look at.
I really enjoyed the section that dealt with the beginning of his career and how Cus programmed his mind to see himself as great.
It was hard to listen to the section of him addicted to coke when he was at the end of his career and post retirement. You feel like you have a court side seat to watch someone destroy themself.
However, it was good to listen to how he put his life back together and to hear how it is still a work in progress, basically like everyone on the planet.
The narrator was very good.
Mike really had an amazing life, he had a tragic life, and is living a redemptive life.
I HIGHLY recommend this book!

Historia
We watch football every Sunday, but we don't really see it. By spending a year with the New York Jets, Nicholas Dawidoff explored the game in such an intimate way that he can now put you right inside the NFL. Collision Low Crossers is a story that is part Paper Lion and part Moneyball, part Friday Night Lights and part The Office.

Excellent portrait of the NFL
This book was so good I listened to it twice, a couple of years apart. I got something out of it that I missed on the second listening. It really gives you a sense of how an NFL team operates and how NFL players and coaches live. It’s gives you an fly on the wall view of the game. The author is a great writer as well! NFL fans will love this book. EXCELLENT BOOK!!

Historia
The definitive history of the 1990s New York Knicks, illustrating how Pat Riley, Patrick Ewing, John Starks, Charles Oakley, and Anthony Mason resurrected the iconic franchise through oppressive physicality and unmatched grit. Blood in the Garden is a portrait filled with eye-opening details that have never been shared before, revealing the full story of the franchise in the midst of the NBA’s golden era. And rest assured, no punches will be pulled. Which is just how those rough-and-tumble Knicks would like it.

This book was really good! It took me back to those days in the 90’s. I was not even a Knicks fan but I really enjoyed this. If you are a basketball fan you will like this book. The writing was good and the narrator was good. I recommend this.

Historia
With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld. A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo's epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched.

Best book I read and listened to in 2018!!
Revisado: 09-02-18
This book was fantastic! The author did an amazing job weaving the stories of the gang members, victims and cops together. The writing was superb.
The narrator was good, not fantastic, but did not detract from the story.
Anyone that wants to know who about inner city violence should read this book. I may even listen to it again.

Historia
Vick "The Reaper" Harwood is an esteemed sniper with a record kill count - 33 kills in 90 days - when he is knocked out under mortar attack in Afghanistan. He wakes up back in the United States with little memory of what happened, his spotter and gun both unrecovered from the battlefield. Harwood has resigned himself to slowly picking up the pieces of his life. But when a series of assassinations start occurring in the area, Harwood can't explain why he just happens to be nearby for each killing - or how a sniper rifle that matches the description of the one he lost seems to be involved.
