Historia
THE LAST ELECTION is a unique political thriller about an outlandish yet frighteningly possible—even probable—scenario in America's near future, during the crucial 2024 presidential election. Though it is fiction, it is a wake-up call to a country tearing itself apart, from former presidential candidate Andrew Yang and author Stephen Marche.

Not what I was expecting.
Revisado: 10-01-23
Not only is this more depressing than I anticipated, it was a little clumsy feeling. I am perhaps foolish in my optimism but don’t think this would be how it went. Even if “the Republican” is elected, I think the country has backed away from some of the outright violence we saw during 2020. Can definitely tell this was written with those darker times in mind.

This Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience! A deadly coup within the Wizard's Guild leaves the Witcher, Geralt of Rivia, gravely injured, and his ward Ciri missing in the third book of the New York Times best-selling series that inspired the Netflix show and the hit video games.

Love the book track editions. Books much more engaging than the show on Netflix. Sadly.

Great story decent performance
Revisado: 08-19-23
Reader does a decent Yōda but a terrible Vader. Still their read of main characters and accents plus emotions is quite stellar. Story is a great one. Tells a tale of interesting characters intersecting within important canon while fitting in to not change it. Perfect execution.

The lack of narration is not for me
Revisado: 07-23-23
I l le SW but Hogg republic is difficult for me to track sometimes. Feels like across comics and books there are completely different characters doing what essentially amounts to the same things at the same historical events and it is not entirely clear how they interconnect. This books also chooses to have no narration and all exposition come from characters themselves. I found that to be a little clunky at times.

Historia
It is an age of exploration. Jedi travel the galaxy, expanding their understanding of the Force and all the worlds and beings connected by it. Meanwhile, the Republic, led by its two chancellors, works to unite worlds in an ever-growing community among near and distant stars. On the close-orbiting planets of Eiram and E’ronoh, the growing pains of a galaxy with limited resources but unlimited ambition are felt keenly. The two worlds’ hatred for each other has fueled half a decade of escalating conflict and now threatens to consume surrounding systems.

Trying to avoid spoilers. But this was the book I needed to read after the first phase of High Republic. Buried in THIS book are many of the answers to those questions. But now. More questions. :)

Not a great SW book
Revisado: 03-25-23
Wanted to hear this heading into sequel game. Too much time is spent trying to describe things in a way that feel like “hey this is like how the gameplay is” and not enough understanding of actual characters.
Reader really bothered me at first but got to be ok by the end. Overall I am not sure how this story will do much to serve the characters in any deep way heading into the new game.

Historia
When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction, and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third.

This book has helped on my own mental health journey, while forcing me to consider all I thought I knew about consciousness, drugs, and existence. It also has been useful as something I allude to when I teach intro psych.

Very practical.
Revisado: 02-26-23
I had my doubts with this as I am a research psychologist in my day job. I was a little Leary if anyone claiming effects based mostly on their own therapy (at first). However this book has already made huge positive contributions to my wife and I rediscovering our love for each other after a difficult few years through COVID.
Strongly recommend trying these exercises. Not all will work for all, but you will find something that works for you.

Historia
Padmé is adjusting to being a wartime senator during the Clone Wars. Her secret husband, Anakin Skwyalker, is off fighting the war, and excels at being a wartime Jedi. In contrast, when Padmé gets the opportunity to see the casualties on the war-torn front lines, she is horrified. Meanwhile, with Padmé on a secret mission, her handmaiden Sabé steps into the role of Senator Amidala, something no handmaiden has done for an extended period of time. While in the Senate, Sabé is equally horrified by the machinations that happen there.

Such great detail and admirably performed
Revisado: 08-01-22
Love getting this additional detail about Padme, and the others in her circle. Such layer and important context to her relationship with Annakin and others.
Performer is very good at affecting the queen and maidens voices. Less so at replicating voices of other well known characters, but it is a good attempt and the story more than makes up for any shortfall.
