Surprisingly flat
Revisado: 12-30-24
This was a very disappointing book. I was surprised that there were no new insights into how AI will shape the future.

Historia
This is the way the world ends: with a nanosecond of computer error in a Defense Department laboratory and a million casual contacts that form the links in a chain letter of death. And here is the bleak new world of the day after: a world stripped of its institutions and emptied of 99 percent of its people. A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.

Not a quick read (or listen).
Revisado: 05-05-24
To be fair, I had high expectations. The book is over 24 hours long. The ending was a big letdown after all of that listening. Sorry, Stephen.

Aaron Schwartz’s life is inspirational and tragic
Revisado: 10-09-23
Aaron Schwartz was a wonder kid who had high ideals and spent his life pursuing them. He was committed to a democratization of information and had the courage to fight the corporate establishment. His story is an inspiration.

This book is very insightful!
Revisado: 07-13-23
This is a great book for anyone, considering ketamine therapy for depression, or other conditions. I had knowledge of ketamine treatments before listening, and jumped ahead to the ketamine experience itself. However, this is a tremendous resource for people just starting to explore ketamine therapy.

Historia
As one of the music world’s most iconic artists and the cofounder of the organizations ONE and (RED), Bono’s career has been written about extensively. But in Surrender, it’s Bono who picks up the pen, writing for the first time about his remarkable life and those he has shared it with. In his unique voice, Bono takes us from his early days growing up in Dublin, including the sudden loss of his mother when he was fourteen, to U2’s unlikely journey to become one of the world’s most influential rock bands, to his more than twenty years of activism.

Great story of a band I have always loved
Revisado: 03-19-23
I saw this was on Bill Gates. Best book list. I’ve listen to the band since I was a kid and it’s amazing they are still together.

Historia
A beautiful, startling, and candid memoir about growing up without boundaries, in which Ariel Leve recalls with candor and sensitivity the turbulent time she endured as the only child of an unstable poet for a mother and a beloved but largely absent father, and explores the consequences of a psychologically harrowing childhood as she seeks refuge from the past and recovers what was lost.

Courageous book dealing with the devil you know
Revisado: 12-28-22
Ariel Leve’s story is remarkable and validates the crazy / unpredictable family life we endured. Leve describes her struggles growing up in a toxic environment and how she finds her personal pathway to freedom from her mother’s grip. I finished this book with hope for the future.

Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it.

A book I Will Listen To Again And Again
Revisado: 10-30-22
There are a handful of books that you never let go of and they change your outlook on life (and death). I have seen the cover for years but never selected it for my next read. However, the Chicago Public Library waiting list for the audio edition estimated I would get it in 10 weeks. That was enough for me to purchase it on audible. If that many people were willing to wait that long to listen to it, I knew it had to be special.
If everyone listened or read Tuesdays w … the world would be a much more loving place. If you are on the fence about reading it, I hope this review will give you the little push you need.

Historia
When Norm Macdonald, one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time, was approached to write a celebrity memoir, he flatly refused, calling the genre “one step below instruction manuals.” Norm then promptly took a two-year hiatus from stand-up comedy to live on a farm in northern Canada. When he emerged he had under his arm a manuscript, a genre-smashing book about comedy, tragedy, love, loss, war, and redemption. When asked if this was the celebrity memoir, Norm replied, “Call it anything you damn like.”

100% Norm
Revisado: 07-07-22
If you are a fan of Norm MacDonald, you will love this book! It is the king of storytelling and had me on the hook from the beginning. I was sad it was over when it ended and will probably listen again when I need a good laugh. I 100% recommend this book!

Short Stories Masterpiece
Revisado: 02-02-20
I was not aware of this book was a compilation of short stories when I purchased it. The stories are well written and told through the eyes of an immigrant child. The stories describe how a family that moves from Mexico to the United States deal with a number of challenges. It is a great book for middle school students and adults alike.

Historia
The Penderwick Sisters are home on Gardam Street and ready for an adventure! But the adventure they get isn't quite what they had in mind. Mr. Penderwick's sister has decided it's time for him to start dating, and the girls know that can only mean one thing: disaster. Enter the Save-Daddy Plan, a plot so brilliant, so bold, so funny that only the Penderwick girls could have come up with it. It's high jinks, big laughs, and loads of family warmth as the Penderwicks triumphantly return.
