Only helpful for app creators or advertising/marketing companies

Revisado: 04-11-24

The title says “changing your life” but a large portion job of this info actually seems to be targeted towards people who want to leverage psychology to create apps or ad campaigns. Lots of anecdotes that go on and on and seem to kind of overlap or repeat each other. I lasted until chapter 4 and then started listening to the last 4-5 minutes of every chapter where he gives the exercise for an individual takeaway. Almost all of the helpful info was contained in those 4-5 minutes. This wasn’t a useless book, but I wish the author or publisher had been more clear or upfront about who the intended audience truly was. If you’re a marketer or app creator, this would be extremely helpful. Looking to create stronger personal habits? Look elsewhere.

Every voter in every democracy must read this book

Revisado: 08-04-23

This is an intelligent and thoughtful examination of the ideology of transgenderism and gender self identification and gives a logical point by point breakdown of why this quasi-religion is a genuine and present threat to the democratic fabric of our society. It is terrifying for the future of free speech and thought in our country, as well as for the countless individuals who have been, are being, and will be harmed by this ideology. Compassion for individual trans people cannot and should not be allowed to override common sense or to compel the rest of society to reorder itself on a foundational, fundamental level that will leave many other minorities vulnerable.

My only criticism of this book was that the author illuminated precious few remedies for how we should counter this corrosive idea. Sadly, that might be the point.

Good, Not Great

Revisado: 01-16-21

I really enjoyed the first half of this book and had high hopes for it but then it kept dragging on and on and on. When all the “secrets” were revealed near the end, they were definitely not worth the wait. The story was tied up too neatly with the modern characters suddenly making leaps of intuition in the last five chapters that they hadn’t been making for the whole book. This was only my second Kate Morton book. I enjoyed the other one more, so I’ll have to consider if it’s worth another credit to give her another chance.
