inspiring

Revisado: 04-17-25

This was an inspirational account of one man's quest to heal himself body and soul while hiking the Appalachian Trail. It came at a time when I was doubting my own ability to tackle the trail, a life long dream. Now that I have retired and have the time, my knees have developed arthritis and I find it difficult to hike more than 4 miles at a time. This book let me know that 4 miles a day is okay. It's more about chasing the dream than it is about how fast you get there. (I do expect I'll be able to hike more miles in time, if not it'll take me longer to get there). We are planning our journey for next year.

The reading of this audio book took some time to get used to. I admire that the author read it himself and I feel like this gave it authenticity. Don't let this make you stop listening. I have read and listened to a lot of AT stories and this is one of the most inspiring.

The information in this book was very good and it gave me some things to think about as we reach retirement age. However, it sounded like it was being read by a computer. The reading was halting and the reader annunciation each and every syllable. I increased the speed to make it less distracting

Nix that career change idea

Revisado: 09-23-22

If this was supposed to chase anyone with the idea of becoming a NPS ranger screaming and running for the door it is a success. While it is interesting and it provides insights into the life of a ranger it would certainly discourage anyone from becoming one.

This was mostly a report of the research findings rather than actual tips for building wealth. Stick to the original Millionaire Next Door

This was a wonderful parable. All should listen to this beautiful story and learn how we should live.

This was little more than a review of literary and cinematic witchy references that ended on a feminist rant.

Don't Buy This Book

Revisado: 07-22-21

This was billed as history but in reality it is nothing more than a rant against the deep south. Yes, I am well aware of the souths racist history and no I'm not proud of that fact but this book portrays ALL southerners as racist and I can't listen to any more of it. As a southern woman I am proud because that means I am strong and resilient. It DOES NOT mean I am a white supremacist!

Motivational

Revisado: 01-21-20

Steven King reads his memoir on the craft of writing with style and feeling. He is encouraging to would be writers, offering tips and advice on everything from where to get your ideas to getting published. He actually gives us permission to be writers if that is what we want to be. Sometimes that's all we need to start something new. I recommend this to anyone interested in writing fiction whether Steven King fans or not.

I enjoyed this at Halloween. Good spooky stories with just enough fright to be fun.

not just for millenials

Interesting. Written for millenials but even empty nesters get burn out. I enjoyed the book.
