entire book just a description

Revisado: 06-13-17

Bare scraps of dialogue, barely a story, what has happened to Steel? The entire book is just a description of whats happening not a story of the characters. In my life there has only been three books I couldn't bear to finish and this is one of them....

insightful

Revisado: 12-04-16

This is the second book I have listened to by this author and I am amazed at those moments she captures of the realities of life. The thoughts and feelings that creep up on us that we would never share. I also love how she wraps up the story at the end. We aren't left hanging.

Wow

Revisado: 08-13-16

Really noticed a difference after a few days. Subtle but impressive. I just started getting things done. No conscious struggle to try to get organized, it just started to happen. Did start to slide back when I didn't listen for a week but maybe after awhile it can become second nature.

Not my favorite

Revisado: 03-17-16

The first half is very slow, mostly because it is only the primary character and backstory. Picks up in the second half though.

Pleasantly surprised

Revisado: 04-02-14

This book is full of useful information that is easy to incorporate in everyday lives. I found the writer to the point and not a lot of "filler" in between. There were relevant examples and clear instruction. I found myself reaching for pen and paper many times to take notes. It is presented as a program to help with goals and changes we would like to make, insert your goal now choose how you would like to go about achieving it - here are some options. Really feel I got my moneys worth! In fact I think I may go buy the hard copy too.

Positive Response

Revisado: 03-05-14

I have a few of Joel's Hypnotherapy Audiobooks and I have to say I do notice a change. I leave them on for most of the night and have found myself more motivated and more focused. I have had a problem with focus my whole life, not enough to say ADD but enough to wander around aimlessly for 15 mins now and then, forgetting why I walked into a room. I will continue to listen as I know change doesn't happen in one night!

Story Slow, Narrator Irritating

Revisado: 09-30-12

The story isnt bad but can be slow and not in the way that it would increase suspense. The narrator reads the entire story with a depressing overly dramatic affectation of doom. Right from the start his voice seems to tell us this story won't end well. Reminds me of the way Vincent Price use to talk.

Very unlikeable characters

Revisado: 09-06-12

Its hard to like a book when there isnt a single character you can root for. By the time I was just over halfway through I was ready to stop. Only the need to finish each book I start kept me going but I wont listen to it again and I'm glad I didnt buy the hard copy. Narrators are great, the story would be great but the writer doesnt give the reader a character we can sympathize with or feel empathy for.

Narrator ruined the story for me

Revisado: 12-20-11

Just a personal preference but I found it very irritating that most of the story is told in a hushed/whispered/breathless voice. It did get better as it went and I can see how others may enjoy a breathy voice, for me it detracted from the story.

Great Listen!

Revisado: 12-10-11

Coming from the Brat Pack Era myself it was fascinating to hear 'behind the scene' stories from all those great 80's movies - from Outsiders to St. Elmo's Fire - and as I took the advise of a previous reviewer, I need to re-state that having Rob read his life story with all the WONDERFUL impersonations he does really made this book more memorable.
