From trips on private jets and encounters with world leaders to shocking accounts of misogyny and double standards behind the scenes, this searing memoir exposes both the personal and the political fallout when unfettered power and a rotten company culture take hold. In a gripping and often absurd narrative where a few people carelessly hold the world in their hands, this eye-opening memoir reveals what really goes on among the global elite.

An Amazing Story - Dating from an Intelligent Man’s Perspective
Revisado: 07-02-23
An honest appraisal of middle age dating from a man’s perspective with Turner Grant’s story and it's eye opening. So many emotions. Grant's vulnerability shines through as he shares the challenges he faced in his pursuit of love after the sudden and unexpected death of his wife of 20 years. His honesty and sincerity made me feel like a trusted confidant, allowing me to connect with his experiences on a profound level. Through his introspection, Grant demonstrates that love is not only about finding a partner but also about rediscovering oneself and embracing vulnerability. I can highly recommend To Venus and Back.

In his classic guide to understanding the opposite sex, Dr. John Gray provides a practical and proven way for men and women to improve their communication and relationships by acknowledging the differences between them. Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to Earth and amnesia set in: They forgot they were from different planets.

Simplistic But True
Revisado: 11-09-22
The author should not have narrated his own book. He sounds like a first grade teacher talking to his kids on the first day of school. The content certainly rings true at times, but it’s a bit simplistic as well. Relationships are much more complicated.

Seth Hubbard is a wealthy man dying of lung cancer. He trusts no one. Before he hangs himself from a sycamore tree, Hubbard leaves a new, handwritten, will. It is an act that drags his adult children, his Black maid, and Jake into a conflict as riveting and dramatic as the murder trial that made Brigance one of Ford County's most notorious citizens, just three years earlier. The second will raises far more questions than it answers. Why would Hubbard leave nearly all of his fortune to his maid? Had chemotherapy and painkillers affected his ability to think clearly?

Grisham Doing Grisham ...yawn
Revisado: 07-12-19
Good plot, interesting characters, but just more Grisham being Grisham which by now is wearing thin. Will be my last Grisham book. He needs to go spend his book money, take a cruise or something.

Toby Fleishman thought he knew what to expect when he and his wife of almost fifteen years separated: weekends and every other holiday with the kids, some residual bitterness, the occasional moment of tension in their co-parenting negotiations. He could not have predicted that one day, in the middle of his summer of sexual emancipation, Rachel would just drop their two children off at his place and simply not return. He had been working so hard to find equilibrium in his single life. The winds of his optimism, long dormant, had finally begun to pick up. Now this.

SO BAD
Revisado: 06-26-19
A woman narrating a poorly written book about a guy and his “boners?” The writing is just awful. What was the publisher thinking? I stopped the book 40 minutes in and returned it to Audible.

A Serious Waste of Time
Revisado: 07-04-16
This may be a book of its time, but just be aware that it's time has passed. A few excerpts:
"....what is the cause of causality?"
"....in the pile of sand, which grain of sand is the Buddha?.......oh, the Buddha is everywhere!"
If philosophy is your thing and the ramblings of a story about a man who lost his personality and memory due to Electric Shock Therapy floats your boat, then go for it.... I suppose.
Let the rationality of what is irrational and the lateral exploration of what is or might not be but could be if your exploration becomes linear again rule the day #*{^}£*}*{£~£}?

Adam Nicolson sees the Iliad and the Odyssey as the foundation myths of Greek - and our - consciousness, collapsing the passage of 4,000 years and making the distant past of the Mediterranean world as immediate to us as the events of our own time.
