To say this completely changed my outlook on the brain is an understatement

How do I even begin with this book. It’s so mindblowingly interesting with the content and the studies and it’s presented in such an entertaining and captivating way, I highly recommend this book. In fact, I think I’m going to start it again now.

A fun story, with an awesome narrator
Revisado: 06-22-21
I wouldn't necessarily consider myself a common patron of the romance-esque stories, but I found I really enjoyed this story. The characters are all really well developed and the story takes you on quite a fun journey. I thought the narrator was excellent, his portrayal of each characters was very distinct, and each character was unique. At one point, he spoke perfect French, and had I not known it was the same narrator, I'd have certainly confused him for a native speaker of French. Check out this story!

Nick Podehl kills it!
Revisado: 01-12-21
I know a lot can, (and definitely has been) said about this book from an author and literature standpoint, but let's talk about the stellar performance of Nick Podehl here. I love the atmosphere and energy he brought into each character and encounter. The accents, the rhythms, everything he brought into this story truly accented the words of the author. I particularly loved Hafiz, the merchant.
Definitely recommend!

Historia
USA Today best-selling author, Lexy Timms, brings you a sweet (and oh-so-sexy) romance about love, sweat, and tears. Violent, painfully loyal, and willing to win at all costs. Aedan Kearney learned from an early age that the only person he could count on was himself. Growing up on the rough side of New York City, he’s no stranger to a fight. He knows how to outlast the best of them - at least that’s what he’s trying to do. An ultimate fighter standing on the edge of something big.

It was a normal election year. There were two top candidates, and the American people left with a choice to make: stay with the incumbent or elect the challenger, Alfred Millstone. Charlie Cooper proudly voted for Millstone. The man had answers to all of the country’s problems, so when his choice wins, he’s thrilled, until the new president reveals his evil side as soon as he’s sworn into office.

A great listen, but a bit chilling, especially with the parallels to real life lately. Great characters, and story. I thought the narration was well done, as well.

this book is extremely intelligently written, but allows for little pieces of humor to be thrown in there to keep it entertaining. It is a phenomenal outlook on life and anybody could benefit by reading this!

Historia
The sci-fi saga that began with the breakout best seller Illuminae continues onboard the Jump Station Heimdall, where two new characters will confront the next wave of the BeiTech assault. Hanna is the station captain's pampered daughter, Nik the reluctant member of a notorious crime family. But while the pair are struggling with the realities of life aboard the galaxy's most boring space station, little do they know that Kady Grant and the Hypatia are headed right toward Heimdall, carrying news of the Kerenza invasion.

Historia
Audie Award, Multi-Voiced Performance, 2016. The year is 2575, and two rival mega-corporations are at war over a planet that's little more than an ice-covered speck at the edge of the universe. Too bad nobody thought to warn the people living on it. With enemy fire raining down on them, Kady and Ezra - who are barely even talking to each other - are forced to fight their way onto one of the evacuating fleet, with an enemy warship in hot pursuit.

this is the first book that I have listen to that utilizes a full cast as well as sound effects and music. It is done in such a way that it completely immerses you in the story, as if I were watching it on TV! Absolutely brilliant!
