TBU: Save your 8 hours

Revisado: 10-27-20

Let me save you some time. This author thinks Google is evil, blockchain is amazing and that he’s Nostradamus. Nothing new or helpful or interesting in this book and definitely not a view of the future or changing landscape.

Skip this one

Revisado: 06-05-20

Normally books about content marketing are great and valuable reads. This one...not so much. “Do a video or a blog or a newsletter.” Wow. So insightful. Skip this and read Cpntent Inc instead.

Podcast sold as a book

Revisado: 02-13-20

Waste of a credit and your 1 hour of time. Essentially a podcast episode of two people reflecting on things.

Absolutely LOVED it!!

Revisado: 01-19-20

I absolutely LOVED this book! I had to keep reminding myself that this was a letter in response to a potentially difficult question. The writer weaves a lovely story with the perfect amount of detail so you feel as though you’re in the story yourself. I could see the theater, the costumes, the people...everything! I loved the humor! And the final invitation is so heart-warning. Definitely a favorite!

I wish I could have loved it more...

Revisado: 04-22-19

We read this book as part of our Book Club. Perhaps it was because I listened via Audible that the ever changing time frames became somewhat confusing. I liked the characters, but couldn’t get fully invested (unlike many of my other Book Club members). It wasn’t until Chapter 13 that I truly become interested; where I didn’t have to be actively engaged in a physical action to avoid going to sleep and/or didn’t have to rewind so often, because my mind wandered elsewhere. When the story’s narration switches to the father’s perspective, I gained greater appreciation for the heart of the story. It’s message is clear. Be less critical and more compassionate. Speak your love everyday. Explain why, even to young children. Embrace that we are all imperfect. Some take longer to process the meaning in our lives, but if we are always striving to understand, we exist with humility. Forgive.

I tried to like this book...

Revisado: 08-06-18

Admittedly, I'm a little new to this audible experience, but this story just never grabbed me, and I tried. I REALLY tried! This was the 5th book I've "read," and despite rewinding, starting over, and changing the activity I participated in while listening, I just couldn't do it. In fact, only 1 of our book club members actually finished it, and even she had difficulty! According to her, it takes a good 200+ pages to get to the real story. That's far too long! And while the author does a wonderful job of setting the scene and providing detailed descriptions, perhaps less would be more. I will say that the final letter in the back of the book was eloquently written. It made me want to read the book...but I don't dare start yet AGAIN.

Starts out terrific

Revisado: 03-05-17

If you read the first half it's an awesome book. But the second half takes the overall review down. Unless you're interested in how to arrange chairs in a discussion...

Excellent book for partnerships

Revisado: 01-20-17

If you could sum up The Partnership Charter in three words, what would they be?

Valuable, thought-provoking, & straightforward. As someone contemplating bringing others into my business as partners, this book was perfect. The author provided valuable, actionable material instead of just opining on their perspective. There are great example stories and the framework is easy to follow. I've listened 3x already and plan to keep this on my re-read list.

Inspired

Revisado: 09-16-16

This is the first audio book that truly inspired. Through the dual authors and eloquent use of music the story and lessons unfurled. Nicely done!!

Inch deep and pretty basic

Revisado: 07-24-16

I was intrigued by the title and wanted to like this book. It's very basic. I'm a software developer and I didn't learn anything from this book about marketing. While she cited examples, there's not much depth to them and she tried to cover too much content in such a short book. It was as though she spent as much time writing it as I did listening to it.
