Being a stay at home mom has been the most rewarding yet hardest job of my life. It is a career in and of itself. If you’ve ever been a stay at home parent you know what I mean. That being said, once you decide to start working again, let’s face it after years of talking to toddlers, playing housecleaner, and helping kids with homework, you’re a little rusty on how to present yourself well and nail that interview.

I recently decided to start working again, and though my old job offered to take me back, I decided a field change would be nice. After two interviews and no call backs I decided I may need some help. This is where Emily Anderson’s book comes in.

Her presentation from building your resume to the interview is very well informed. I love how she even went into how your social media like Twitter, Facebook etc can affect your outcome. The part I appreciated the the most was the section on emails. This is where I realized I made my mistakes. It is not texting. It is a letter representing yourself and selling yourself, so even continuing correspondences still need to be well worded, laid out, and continue to present you well.

Emily Anderson’s Job Hunting book is a home run if you need those easy reminders and skills to help set you aside from other applicants. I truly enjoyed it and hopefully now I can find that job I’m ready for!

My husband and I recently decided to look into the crypto currency boom as a possible investment, and while he read stuff online and get a good grasp of things, there is so much out there it’s overwhelming, plus I require things a little more broken down than a reference or article found online. So I started downloading different books on audible on Bitcoin, Blockchain, and cryptocurrency.
Andrew Johnson’s book is the best I’ve read so far, and does a really good job of breaking it all down into understandable terms as well as what each term means. I liked that he breaks down the top crypto currencies out there now, their current values, and how volatile the whole system is. I appreciated he did not get into the technicalities of Blockchain because honestly, it’s way over my head, but what he does mention is very understandable and makes it easy to grasp.
As noted in other reviews, he does not actually get into how and where to buy into cryptocurrency, which others found disappointing, but if you read the tittle it says “Book 1” so I’m hoping he has a follow up book about how and where to buy into the market coming because his style of writing and how he breaks things down for us “newbies” is very considerate compared to other books I’ve read.
Overall still a good read (or listen in my case) on Cryptocurrency and I would recommend to anyone who isn’t familiar with any of this ne ,ark t and wants to know more.

As the mother of two toddler boys, 2 1/2 and 3 1/2 (yes a year apart 🙄) I found Jennifer Garden’s Parenting Children: Learn How to be a Loving and Effective Parent as a witty and funny self help book about all the joys and pains of parenting in today’s modern world. I particularly loved the stories from the dads point of view as they were very funny and made the subjects very relatable.
The subjects covered were very relevant in today’s world; subjects like the struggle between being your child’s friend but also a disciplinarian, how to handle social media and electronics, bullying, and the ever growing crisis of ADHD. For me I particularly liked the fact that there was not much “psychology speech” if you will, making much easier to follow, yet it was very much based on science and research.
Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a little help in parenting, and wouldn’t mind laughing along the way, because after all, that is what parenting is all about, the struggle, the frustration, and the laughing later. GREAT READ

After my husband told me to get this book because it covered the “ways of the future” I scoffed as I am NOT a computer person, nor am I even remotely familiar with the ideas in this book. But I relented and did it anyways, and I was surprised at what I actually took away from the book and was able to understand. Mr. Wright does an amazing job of taking something so incredibly complicated, and let’s face it, boring, and bring it to life so that even those such as myself who know nothing of these things can comprehend it all.
Block chain and crypto currency are the ways of the future and it’s something everyone will be hearing more about as our technological world continues to grow. This book is a definite must read for anyone interested in the future and great for future planning and investments. Highly recommended!

George Tanners “Stoicism” is a great beginners book for those looking to enlighten themselves on Stoics and what they believe and practiced, beginning with Ancient Rome and their philosophers. “Stoicism brings together logics, physics, ethics, and psychology” and helps us to learn how to “rid ourselves of the useless things in life,” all while practicing how to be “untroubled by what we cannot control.”

These are a few tidbits from the book that help you to understand stoicism and its followers. I found this book extremely enlightening and actually realized that I myself am already a partial stoic by nature. I’d recommend this book as a good read for anyone interested in Ancient Rome or philosophy.
