Historia
Throughout the past year, teacher Chasten Glezman Buttigieg has emerged on the national stage, having left his classroom in South Bend, Indiana, to travel cross-country in support of his husband, former mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Pete's groundbreaking presidential campaign. Through Chasten's joyful, witty social media posts, the public gained a behind-the-scenes look at his life with Pete on the trail - moments that might have ranged from the mundane to the surprising, but that were always heartfelt.

Raw and honest providing a straight person to gain insight!
Revisado: 09-11-20
I am a straight 73 year old man that was raised in a Christian environment that believed that gayness was sinful. I really wanted to learn another perspective on this subject. When Mayor Pete was running for president, my mind started to open. I listened to his book as well. In Pete, I observed a person that was honest and intelligent. I soon came to realize that he was the best person to become president in my opinion.
So when Chasten wrote this book, I decided that I wanted to learn more and listened to it. Both Pete and Chasten’s stories helped me realize that becoming gay really isn’t a choice. It’s how they were created.
Chasten’s story is well written and it really helped that he read it himself. The pain that he went through made me sad. Learning how he and Pete connected seemingly was a miracle.
I really appreciated the honesty of it. Well done Chasten. Here’s hoping the very best for you and Peter.

Historia
"How did you get this number?" Those were the first words Jill Biden spoke to US senator Joe Biden when he called her out of the blue to ask her on a date. Growing up, Jill had wanted two things: a marriage like her parents' - strong, loving, and full of laughter - and a career. An early heartbreak had left her uncertain about love until she met Joe. But as they grew closer, Jill faced difficult questions: How would politics shape her family and professional life? And was she ready to become a mother to Joe's two young sons?

This book written and read by Jill was outstanding. Having listened to a book about Joe along with this book, gives me hope for the strength and love of family. This is something our country really needs.

Historia
The aviators. The Amtrak. The ice cream cones. The memes. Few politicians are as iconic, or as beloved, as Joe Biden. Now, in The Book of Joe, Biden fans will finally have the definitive look at America's favorite vice president - and what he can teach us. Structured around key moments in Biden's life and career - and filled with Biden-isms like "That's a bunch of malarkey" and "I may be Irish, but I'm not stupid" - this blend of biography, advice, and humor will reveal the experiences that forged Joe Biden, and the lessons we can use in our own lives.

Historia
Once described by The Washington Post as "the most interesting mayor you've never heard of", Pete Buttigieg, the 36-year-old Democratic mayor of South Bend, Indiana, has improbably emerged as one of the nation's most visionary politicians. First elected in 2011, Buttigieg left a successful business career to move back to his hometown, previously tagged by Newsweek as a "dying city", and transformed it into a shining model of urban reinvention.

It was good that Pete did his own narration. It was personal and professional. He's got a deep background for such a young guy.

In this inspirational audiobook, beloved broadcast journalist Jane Pauley helps people in the middle of their lives successfully navigate a "reinvention" phase and build a positive, powerful future.

Historia
The Entrepreneur Roller Coaster will prepare you for the wild ride of entrepreneurship. It will warn you (of forthcoming fears, doubts, and the self-defeating conditioning of your upbringing and past), inoculate you (from the naysayers, dream-stealers, and pains of rejection and failure), and guide you (as you build those under-developed skills of independence, self-motivation, and self-accountability) safely past the landmines that blow up and cause the failure of 66 percent of all new businesses.

Historia
No college basketball coach has ever dominated the sport like John Wooden. His UCLA teams reached unprecedented heights in the 1960s and '70s, capped by a run of ten NCAA championships in twelve seasons and an eighty-eight-game winning streak, records that stand to this day. Wooden also became a renowned motivational speaker and writer, revered for his "Pyramid of Success." The portrait that emerges from Davis's remarkable biography is of a man in full, whose life story still resonates today.

SETH HIT A HOMERUN!
Revisado: 04-09-15
What did you love best about Wooden?
I really appreciated the honesty the Seth Davis displayed in telling the story about Johnny Wooden. Most of us only saw the side of Johnny in his latter years. I always wondered if it truly was possible to coach UCLA to so many championships with what seemed to be a gentlemanly approach. This book tells it all.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

When Navy SEAL Adam Brown woke up on March 17, 2010, he didn’t know he would die that night in the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan - but he was ready: In a letter to his children, not meant to be seen unless the worst happened, he wrote, "I’m not afraid of anything that might happen to me on this earth, because I know no matter what, nothing can take my spirit from me."

Historia
By the early 1960s, Ford Motor Company, built to bring automobile transportation to the masses, was falling behind. Baby boomers were taking to the roads in droves, looking for speed not safety, style not comfort, and Ford didn’t offer what these young drivers wanted. Meanwhile, Enzo Ferrari lorded over the European racing scene, crafting beautiful, fast sports cars that epitomized style.

INTRIGUED WITH RACING IN THE '60'S?
Revisado: 04-09-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I was a Indy Car racing fan in the 1960's. I loved the Indy 500 and really didn't know much of the Le Mans or Ford's involvement in the racing scene. That said, I really enjoyed this book and learning about the influence and history of both Enzo Ferrari and Henry Ford Jr.

A WELL READ, INSIGHTFUL BOOK WITH HEAING INSIGHT
Revisado: 03-19-15
Where does Back to Happy rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Being a professional voice, author Connie Bowman does an outstanding narration of her book. Using the story of her personal loss of her daughter makes this book real as she gives many suggestions of steps to consider while going through the grief from loss process.
What did you like best about this story?
While Connie's personal belief system is through the Christian perspective, she presents the book in such a way, the she encourages the readers to embrace their own belief system of their higher power.
Have you listened to any of Connie T. Bowman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No.
What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?
From time to time, people in my circle of influence experience loss. I will feel very comfortable in suggesting 'Back to Happy' as a book that the person may want to consider reading when they are ready.
Any additional comments?
Well done!
