Enjoyable and interesting

Obama writes about childhood, the 2 terms and her own accomplishments. It’s a very interesting read and positive perspective.

Historia
"My name is 'J' and I'm awkward--and Black. Someone once told me those were the two worst things anyone could be. That someone was right. Where do I start?" Being an introvert in a world that glorifies cool isn't easy. But when Issa Rae, the creator of the Shorty Award-winning hit series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, is that introvert--whether she's navigating love, work, friendships, or rapping--it sure is entertaining.

Not adventurous but interesting
Revisado: 02-26-18
Issa Rae is awesome and doing good stuff but this book is not very exciting and the stories not so amazing. It’s an interesting read - with stimulating perspectives.
If you want adventurous - read The Last Black Unicorn! Tiffany Haddish.

Historia
If your funny older sister were the former deputy chief of staff to President Barack Obama, her behind-the-scenes political memoir would sound something like this. Who Thought This Was a Good Idea? is an intimate and admiring portrait of a president, a candid book of advice for young women, and a promising debut from a savvy political star.

Wonderful but not enough
Revisado: 07-09-17
Amazing stories and interesting insights into the administration. Well told and really entertaining - but too short!! This book could have been twice as long, it's written so well and it's fascinating... I was a little disappointed that the death of Mandela (where there must have been some crazy stories) and the passing of the author's cat got muddled... but anyway, a great read.

Historia
The previous edition of this now-classic book revealed the existence and subversive manipulations of "economic hit men".

Their tools include fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex, and murder".

Detailed and deadly
Revisado: 06-23-17
If you're an engineer, politician, lawyer or... consultant this is a fascinating look into how the world of economics and modern markets are ruled and managed.
And, if you're just interested in recent history this is a very insightful read.

This book is amazing, the story intense and funny... But always sobering to the reality of how life is tough and challenging.
Kevin Hart also performs with passion and humour - it's an awesome listen.

Historia
A definitive, deeply moving narrative, Bonhoeffer is a story of moral courage in the face of the monstrous evil that was Nazism. After discovering the fire of true faith in a Harlem church, Bonhoeffer returned to Germany and became one of the first to speak out against Hitler. As a double agent, he joined the plot to assassinate the Führer and was hanged in Flossenbürg concentration camp at age thirty-nine. Since his death, Bonhoeffer has grown to be one of the most fascinating, complex figures of the twentieth century.

incredible and significant story
Revisado: 02-26-17
This is an inspiring and moving story of one man's defiance and spiritual journey as the German church is taken over by the Nazis and Germany too and then into the Second World War. It details his personal realization of what is true and right and the other characters on this side and their plot to assassinate Hitler.
I found the story in general fascinating and really enjoyable especially as I don't know much about Hitler or the war. It's very well told and never gets boring. It's also very biblical ie many biblical reference and references to Bonhoeffer's writings... I did find it could of had more detail about the assassination attempts or Bonhoeffer's specific role even though this element is well told and I guess it's not clear exactly how he was linked. I was expecting more action and drama.
Great read and very well performed.

Historia
Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn". One hundred years after its author’s death, this classic remains remarkably modern and poignantly relevant. In this new edition, Elijah Wood reads Huck in a youthful voice that may be the closest interpretation to Twain’s original intent. His performance captures the excitement and confusion of adolescence and adventure.

Elijah wood does a sterling job of bringing this tale to our ears. I hope he considers doing the same with Tom Sawyer. One can hardly stop listening.

Historia
The long-awaited follow-up to the global best-seller Liar's Poker, The Big Short tells a story of spectacular, epic folly. It has taken the world's greatest financial meltdown to bring Michael Lewis back to the subject that made him famous. His international best seller Liar's Poker exposed the greed and carnage of the City and Wall Street in the 1980s; he wrote it as a cautionary tale, but people seem to have read it as a how-to guide. Now, he wants to settle accounts.

Fascinating and boring
Revisado: 09-09-16
This story is incredible. I watched the film and thoroughly enjoyed the story, and so I wanted to get into more of the detail. However, it's a seriously detailed read and not so easy to follow the technical aspects. But enjoyable none the less -- especially having the characters from the film in my imagination.
