an intimate conversation

Revisado: 04-20-24

This was best Maxwell book I've listened to, largely because of the presentation. You not only get to hear Maxwell read his book, but he adds to each chapter and provides personal reflection on his own words that you can't duplicate in written form. This is a must buy.

Last two books have bugs

Revisado: 07-22-22

The stories and audio are what you'd expect. Once you get into the G. K. Chesterton books, it will keep jumping to Little Women. the time in the books keeps playing as though you're listening to Father Brown of Wizzard of Oz, but the audio is Little Women. It is quite frustrating and I almost didn't finish them.
Note: pausing and unpacking fixes it eventually, but not permanently.

Needed to read Cash Flow Quadrant first

Revisado: 01-20-21

I'm learning about property investment and do not have a business background. while this book explains things at the simplest level, it still felt overwhelming. Several times it mentions/assumes readers have read Rich Dad Poor Dad and Cash Flow Quadrant. I have not read the latter and they may be part of my struggle.

The book did contain some good procedural checklists that make it worth buying in paper as well as audio.

I'm going to read Cash Flow Quadrant next and update my review.

The first was better.

Revisado: 12-15-20

While there were several good short stories, many were too far removed from what was happening from the points of view we've all watched and read.

Also there were a lot of relationship moments that were out of place. It is hard to make me care about a relationship in a short story that is supposed to provide a different perspective. When most of the unneccessary relationships are between same sex couples, it feels like an agenda. Aside from Han and Leia, I haven't found a relationship in Star Wars I care about except maybe Jynn and Cassian, which didn't really have time to start. If it is not essential to the plot, leave it out.

The book is still worth it for the wampa, Wedge, Dengar/IG stories...though two were far removed from Episode V.

A Lot of Potential, but a Let Down in the End

Revisado: 10-26-20

I really enjoyed the interviews between her and her grandmother, but aside from that I felt the book failed to deliver. The author is very talented and I imagine this book will appeal to many. It's just not for me.

Another Hidden Original Gem

Revisado: 10-26-20

Aside from a bad phone prank as a kid, I didnt know anything about Prince Albert. His life is another example of when the right person is selected at the right time to fill a key role in the changing of a nation. I was also impressed at the relationship between him and his family. It was not what I expected from the aristocracy.

Too much Fitz-phe

Revisado: 09-28-20

This was one of the better books in terms of story life progression, but the Fitz Sophie Keefe triangle was almost unbearable.

An absolute game changer

Revisado: 09-12-20

This really is a must read for everyone. It should be required reading for all elected officials. It holds the keys to the paradigm shift our nation has needed for a long time.

All I can say is meh

Revisado: 06-30-20

The last story was the best, but not good enough to bring up the rating from the first two.

More than the OODA Loop

Revisado: 06-26-20

This was a great book that goes beyond the OODA Loop. written for non military audiences, Boyd takes you through the personal life of a selfless warrior who stayed the course through a lifetime of fighting big military. His ideas can be applied to all conflicts, not just military engagements and his example of standing up for what's right should be emulated by more. This is a well written book on the most controversial Airman to serve.
