Historia
College football fans have welcomed Emmy Award-winning ESPN sideline reporter Lauren Sisler into their homes weekly since 2016. But the popular journalist known for asking insightful questions and for the viral videos dancing her signature “sideline shimmy” shielded a tragic secret behind her smile for nearly two decades: her mother and father died within hours of each other, victims of their hidden battle with prescription drug addiction.

God’s protection
Revisado: 11-16-24
Your parents broke the mold in what we usually know about addictive parents in how much they loved you and took care of you. God protected you in many ways.

Historia
John T. Cacioppo's groundbreaking research topples one of the pillars of modern medicine and psychology: the focus on the individual as the unit of inquiry. By employing brain scans, monitoring blood pressure, and analyzing immune function, he demonstrates the overpowering influence of social context - a factor so strong that it can alter DNA replication.

Great information!
Revisado: 10-23-20
I love the author’s research and find that this information pertains to everyone. It’s even more do now in the middle of a global pandemic that has separated individuals and caused people to seek ways to connect.

Good but too much in spots
Revisado: 01-31-19
Liked Nick Offerman and insights about Mark Twain. But at times belabored what I thought were tangential parts of the story, Such as current plight of turtles and the levies in Louisiana. I almost returned the book because of those. However I just fast forwarded through. Those are the reasons for 3 star rating.

Historia
Two men, each handsome and unusually adept at his chosen work, embodied an element of the great dynamic that characterized America’s rush toward the twentieth century. The architect was Daniel Hudson Burnham, the fair’s brilliant director of works and the builder of many of the country’s most important structures, including the Flatiron Building in New York and Union Station in Washington, D.C. The murderer was Henry H. Holmes, a young doctor who, in a malign parody of the White City, built his “World’s Fair Hotel” just west of the fairgrounds.

Don't quit too soon
Revisado: 03-04-16
I almost quit about a third of the way into the book. I felt like at that point the book spent too much time talking about the architects. However as I went on through the book I begin to appreciate the details of the Columbian exposition as well as the story of HH Holmes. I think it is helpful to google the Columbian exposition of 1893 and look at pictures of the exposition (something you miss with an audible book).It is easy to understand why people were overwhelmed with the beauty of this exposition. I will usually skip the epilogue and notes at the end of a book. However I am glad I listened all the way through those also. It gave me a perspective on the book I hadn't considered. I like the writing and I like the narrator of this book.
