Breaking the contract with the reader
Revisado: 05-04-17
Any additional comments?
This book starts out well, building suspense between characters Louise, David and Adele. But the way the mystery is solved makes me feel like the author found herself in a dead end street and just had to make up some kind of solution. The relation btw author and reader is based on trust, and here the trust is broken, making me feel like I wasted hours invested in a story that couldn't fly.

It is a cold, hard fact of business life that most startups fail. Even many of those entrepreneurs who ultimately succeed have stories of personal challenges, unsuccessful companies, and difficulties along the way. The founders of TechStars, a mentorship-driven startup accelerator, have worked with entrepreneurs and companies over the past twenty-five years, and have seen a number of the same issues come up again and again.

I thought I bought a book, not content marketing, which is what this is. Disappointing, although interesting story.

Excellent, thorough piece of work!

An exceptional book that I will listen to again and also get the print version for later reference. The author has read and squeezed the essence of a remarkable number of books on our behalf.

Oliver Sacks' The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat tells the stories of individuals afflicted with fantastic perceptual and intellectual aberrations: patients who have lost their memories and with them the greater part of their pasts; who are no longer able to recognize people and common objects; who are stricken with violent tics and grimaces or who shout involuntary obscenities; whose limbs have become alien; who have been dismissed as retarded yet are gifted with uncanny artistic or mathematical talents.
