Outstanding everyone needs to learn

Revisado: 02-03-25

I wish that the book were longer like maybe 12 weeks and I wish that there were more defined tasks either daily or weekly much like the artist sway. It feels like a book in which I sort of missed the specific tasks or exercises he was asking the reader to try, but generally heard the wonderful insights and information, he had gathered and offered in the book would definitely buy and recommend for other people. Thanks.

Outstanding information great lessons

Revisado: 12-05-24

Wonderful book. Great lessons. Absolutely worth both a read and a slow and highlighter in hand re-read. I love when authors read their own work but this performance felt like he was uncomfortable and the tone came off as not great. It interferes with the information for me. Still so grateful to have it as an audio book. I almost wonder if he read the book aloud to a dear friend in his favorite room at home if it would have been more comfortable. You should absolutely add this book to your repeat read list.

Ugh. Rambling, long winded, dare I say boring

What a disappointment. Oh well. Bill Bryson has written so many wonderful and funny books I know that it’s impossible for every book to be good but this one needed a good editor to really shape and direct it. It’s like have a conversation with an old man who repeats himself and drifts off to long pointless tangents…

Reading performance is so bad that ruins the book

Revisado: 03-13-24

The narration is so poor that it actually makes it harder to understand and takes away from the book. Not all authors are good narrators. I don’t know who produced it but they collected a paycheck without ever listening to this book let alone directing how it was read and edited. It’s like being yelled at at high speed in a flat tone. I wish I could get my credit back and return this book.

Disappointing

Revisado: 03-22-19

This felt more like a chapter out of the middle of a book rather than a stand alone special edition. This holiday edition can't be super fun and charming but this one seemed like she must've written it on the plane right before a meeting as quickly as she could. No real story running through out. Lacking almost all of the wonderful smart sense of humor of her other stories and books.

Disappointing addition to series

Revisado: 05-16-18

Wish she spent more time on writing a good story like the old days. This is a weak addition to the series.
