Wow! What an American. Great telling of one of our accidental leaders. If every President was just a little more like Harry .....

The best fantasy storytelling with shamanistic and traditional mage magic mixed with modern weaponry and disturbing
psychic abilities meets a pseudo Mocking Bird world with classical eastern philosophy values on a post apocalyptic stage - super fun!

Positive thoughts and a plan of sorts

Revisado: 09-11-17

What did you love best about Thank You for Being Late?

Intriguing studies presented in support of mostly ideas that I agree with and think would work . . . only a couple stinkers

Who was your favorite character and why?

St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Any additional comments?

I thought the analogy of the Israeli's and Palestinian's to the USA's Democratic and Republican party divide was telling based on the author's experience.

Richly Written, thoroughly enjoyed

The keen character development across the board was engaging. Sprinkle in some boyish adventures, big heroes, and scary stuff that's wrapped up in just the right amount of intrigue - kinda makes you wonder

If you are a parent, grandparent, custodian or teacher with an introvert in your midst, find 6 hours to read this book and save you and your loved ones much angst; embrace the quiet ... softly. ~33% of the population are introverts, we are impacted more acutely by inputs and charge up via different means. Help your introvert master their superpowers. Fully engaged, INFP

refuse to be 'just dead inside'

What made the experience of listening to Tribe the most enjoyable?

interesting viewpoint on the correlation between pre-existing life experiences and post traumatic experiences with regard to PTSD rates and recovery.

What did you like best about this story?

the beneficial communal perspective contrasted with the modern, individualist existence. The information about European settlers refusing to leave their American Indian tribe after assimilation, but not a single example of the opposite. How traumatic experience pull humans together so closely and unshakably - to the point of making some prefer war, similar experiences, over other times of their life.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

yes, I don't wanna talk about it

Would you consider the audio edition of Triumph of the City to be better than the print version?

I've only listened to the audio

What other book might you compare Triumph of the City to and why?

it is like no other that I have enjoyed

Which character – as performed by Lloyd James – was your favorite?

I don't understand your question, have you listened to the book?

If you could give Triumph of the City a new subtitle, what would it be?

aligned incentives of urban planning, the key to our future innovation

Any additional comments?

this was a fascinating listen - my daughter is graduating this year with a degree focused on urban planning for healthy living so I was extra tuned in. The ripple effects of policy, the suggestions for immigration, the keys to so many different reasons for innovation and urban success were insightful - I keep telling all my friends about it, so it must have stuck with me. I got the suggestion for the listen from an article featuring Zappos CEO, Tony Hsieh.

Cool historical summary - lost me on Benghazi

Any additional comments?

Interesting cultural transition between the early days of pirates, bikers and surfers to professional. I trained with a SEAL team guy back in the 80's . . . I think we need more pirates in the ranks - bring em back!
