One Courageous Woman

Revisado: 12-03-24

I read Infidel, Nomad, and now Heretic. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is one of the bravest women alive today. She is not only brilliant but her clarity of thought and extensive research make listening to her writing worthwhile. I wish that more people would become aware of her and her writings. I can’t recommend this book enough.

Many inconsistencies

Revisado: 11-02-24

The story is ridiculous. Puppies grow up fast. They become dogs. It’s most likely illegal let alone foolish to even think of keeping 6 dogs in a city.

The story is a fraud

Revisado: 07-27-24

Patric is fabricating this story. If you don’t believe it just go to book reviews on Amazon and read the one star reviews. I feel very foolish. I began to doubt her story as I progressed through her adulthood. I agree with the one star reviews. It’s a fantastic story. And I mean fantastic in a fantasy way. I doubt it she has a valid Ph.D. I wouldn’t feel cheated if it were a novel or historical fiction. But as a memoir I am beyond skeptical.

A very long book

Revisado: 03-20-24

The author has great faith in futuristic predictions. Believing all the doomsday predictions about climate change that are challenged by other scientists. I can’t believe that I stuck with this book. I’m going to Germany this summer and I hoped for some insights. I was disappointed.

I couldn’t stop listening

Revisado: 02-16-24

I love this book. The characters were so real. And inspiring. I learned a lot about WWII and I thought I was very knowledgeable about that topic. I knew about the internment camps but nothing in depth. I am sad that the book is finished.

Finally some sanity

Revisado: 01-29-24

Murray’s chapter on gratitude is particularly interesting. He explains how the resentment of the “woke” and their laziness and incompetence makes them want to destroy others more successful than themselves. They try to conceal their motives with a mantle of social justice but Murray shows them as they actually are. Losers. Destroyers. Rightly objects of disgust who can only deconstruct instead of creating.

Don’t give up. It can take a long time

Revisado: 12-11-23

I loved learning about Jane’s life. How she created her characters. And how she struggled financially and earned only slightly more than 600 pounds from all her books. It reinforced my view that a woman needs to be independent and quit hoping that a man will take care of her. Maybe one will find a sympathetic life partner but never stop cultivating friendships.

Not Cutting For Stone

Revisado: 07-18-23

So disappointing. Maybe he needed the money. I’m sure it will be a movie or miniseries. It’s embarrassingly amateurish. Contrived story. The one theme that art justifies any behavior is trite. Melodramatic and corny. Very unconvincing that Elsie is a genius and a very great artist. I almost regret giving it 3 stars. Verghese shouldn’t narrate.

My most important book

Revisado: 01-13-23

I have listened to this many times. I need it like I need air. Anyone who only listens once and thinks they have got it are sadly missing out on the greatest book ever written about Christianity. It’s a gift.
