I thought it was a joke...

Revisado: 02-13-21

I read a review that said the book used the word whores too much. I thought that's a dumb reason to dislike a book. Turns out it's not. I feel like I'm being beaten by that word. It's feels like every sentence. It's way too much. Frank Herbert had the Bene Gesserit call them Honored Matres because that was what they called themselves. Why can't these knuckleheads do that as well? Come on man!

Yeah, that's not how the the body problem works

Revisado: 12-22-20

This was a good book. I liked it overall. I cannot recommend it as the following books are terrible. The physics was puzzling. It would be more likely that you would eject the planet than set up a randomly repeating stable orbit. The three body problem applies to our solar system too. That's why you can't predict the orbits of small bodies out past a few decades in the inner solar system.

Mediocre with bits that are truly terrible

Revisado: 12-22-20

The love story in the middle ruined the book for me. It was so stupid and contrived that I felt it ruined an otherwise mediocre book.

I feel less smart for having read this

Revisado: 12-22-20

I really liked the opening and the parable. His description of some of his "science" is some of the worst I've ever read. His "science" doesn't make any sense.

The content is okay but...

Revisado: 07-15-20

As with many sounds true productions this isn't a reading of a book, it's a performance. It really becomes clear when he rants about stopping the book to do the exercises. I don't need to hear that. I would prefer an actual audiobook presentation of the information with less ad-libbing.

The early parts are the same mindfulness stuff that has been popular for years. I really wanted to hear more about this philosophy of responsibility, but there is so much to get through. He does offer some interesting exercises later in the book.

Monstrous

Byron Katie thinks that if you were sexually abused as a child it was your fault. no one should ever suggest this. no one should ever believe this.

bad narration makes it unlistenable

Revisado: 03-27-19

The story is very interesting. I read this book years ago. I was really looking forward to it. The narrator gggrrrroooowwlllss everything out. I'm not even sure why. It almost feels like he's trying to be seductive. I don't know. what I do know is it's awful.
