Short but a Great Listen

Revisado: 08-22-19

I’ve been trying to educate myself on dreamers and those who come to United States looking to escape poverty and live a better life. I never realized how difficult it is for their children. Imagine being as young as 6 month old and coming to United States and growing up here, going to school here, living virtually your entire life here, only to realize you’re stuck. You can’t go to college. You can’t get a job. You can’t get a drivers license. You’re living in fear. These are some of the hardest working individuals. Listening to their stories makes me grateful and humbles me. Whatever happens, don’t give up 5 minutes before the miracle.

Great book

Revisado: 07-22-18

Another great book on Audible. Finished it in about 3 days. I really enjoyed it. This book tells a story and it doesn’t have an agenda. Some things towards the end of the book with terminology (Latinx) is not exactly my cup of tea, however, a small portion of what’s not pleasant to me does not tarnish the quality of this book. I never even knew the march from Miami to D.C. , on foot nevertheless! Anyways, great great great book.

Awesome Awesome Book

Revisado: 07-17-18

This is a great great book. I’ve listened to some books before where the authors view was completely slanted one way, mostly left, but this author does an excellent job of staying neutral and conveying the experience of the people stuck in these situations. At times the author conveys facts from both sides. It was actually refreshing to hear a counter argument for once. As someone who leans more towards the right, this book was mostly balanced and remained mostly neutral. I wish it was longer. Time flew by listening to this book. Very much recommend it.

Awesome on every level

Revisado: 04-30-18

This book is so great. I could listen to it on repeat non stop. I’ve been fascinated with this subject, how good honest people were brainwashed and deceived by a monster. And this book is about those people and their lives in Jonestown. Great great great book.

Disappointed

Revisado: 03-01-18

This book is very one sided. Author’s got an opinion just like everyone’s got an @$$hole. All the author does is rip on the right and praises left like its some kind of deity. I was interested in hearing arguments from both sides not someone bashing conservatives for 9 hours. The performance of the book was good, the performer is not the author. The books title does say Backlash and I guess I should’ve known it would’ve been one sided.

I want my time back

Revisado: 02-21-18

If you have a friend who raves about this book then your friend is an idiot and he likely heard it from someone else and it’s a cycle. This book is stupid. Can’t get brain cells and time back. The author stops short of saying he will say anything to get a reaction because he is a best selling author and his goal is to sell books.

Garbage garbage garbage

48 Laws of Garbage

Revisado: 11-28-17

Waist of time. Book is pure garbage. Performance is fine but crap can only sound so good. The author continuously cherry picks his examples and then tells you why his previous example can/will backfire. This sums up to nothing. Literally cancels out his own laws. I can sum this book like this: You want power? Stab someone in the back, take credit for their work, and lie lie lie.

Don’t waist your money on this flaming crap.

Great Great Great Story Telling, What a Great Book!

Revisado: 11-09-16

Soon as I read an excerpt online about this book I marked my calendar with the book's release data. On the date it came out, November 1st, I ordered it on Audible and finished listening to it in 8 days. It's an amazing book. The story telling is suspenseful and I could not get enough of it. Get this book, you won't regret it! A+++++++
