Wonderful

Revisado: 10-05-23

Dr. Harper is one of the few doctors I know who is fully committed to holistic healing. She has amazing compassion and not once did she mention being motivated by money. Sadly, I fear there aren’t many like her left in the field of medicine. I also found her to be a personal inspiration for self love and healing. Thank you Dr. Harper.

Very Inspiring Except for the Political Rhetoric

Revisado: 10-21-22

I really enjoyed this book but had to stop listening in the last half hour or so because the author spent a good deal of time promoting Democrats and President Biden. He tried to say that he originally thought Biden was a pathetic choice for the party's presidential nomination but then turned out to be awesome. Give me a break. I can take some reference to political views, but this was over the top.

It's a shame that he ruined a truly inspiring book with that drivel. Just because he wrote about travel, cooking and movies for the NY Times doesn't mean he has to promote their political views. Save it for a book about politics.

Excellent book

When I started this book, I was doubtful that it would hold my attention. But as I continued to listen, I was completely drawn in to the mind of this man and his life in the Arctic. It is fascinating.

Wonderful true story

I have a very eclectic taste in reading but this is one of the best books I’ve listened to in a while. It’s heartwarming, funny and inspirational all at once. Read it!

Really enjoyed this one

Revisado: 08-23-21

I love learning about other cultures and have been a fan of Sokoglam skincare for a few years now. I found this book to be both interesting and uplifting. It is especially enjoyable because it is read by the author, Charlotte Cho, who I really admire. I don’t always like her politics, but she and her husband have created an amazing company that is clearly full of heart!

Amazing book

Revisado: 06-04-21

This book is excellent - excellent story, excellent character development and excellent narration. Having recently visited Vietnam and the “Hanoi Hilton” museum, it was especially interesting to me to read about French colonization there. I highly recommend this book, especially if you like historical fiction.

One of the bests books I have ever listened to

Revisado: 07-30-20

I don't know where to begin. The story was so beautiful. It demonstrates culture, cultural change, different kinds of love and relationships, and abject poverty contrasted with wealth. The character development was outstanding. I loved every one of them, but especially Parvati. The narrator did an awesome job. I can't say enough good things. I immediately ordered another book by Thrity Umrigar - I hope it is just as good, but that will be a high standard. Read it!

Enlightening and entertaining

Revisado: 06-05-18

John Sweeney ‘s book offers interesting insight into the “hermit kingdom” of North Korea. He does this mostly by telling the story of his tour inside the country. He also has a great sense of humor and while he treats the human rights issues quite seriously, he also pokes fun at much of the propaganda and absurdity. He is an excellent story teller. I really enjoyed it. The narrator was great too.

Exceptional story

Revisado: 03-30-18

This was one that I could not stop listening to. The creativity was endless - there was not a single chapter that dragged. I didn’t want it to end.
