Another great chapter in this series

Revisado: 01-16-24

The Obelisk Gate is a strong follow-up to The Fifth Season, with expanded points of view, ample discoveries and powerful language that will stick with you long after you have finished.

Predictable but fun

Revisado: 11-01-23

Nothing too groundbreaking or surprising, but a fun romp with a solid voice cast. VERY clear it's written by Felicia Day, the story definitely sounds like her. an easy and enjoyable listen.

just ok

Revisado: 10-02-23

Wouldn't quite fit into my normal picks, read on recommendation. Maybe it didn't speak to me much due to my current state of mind, but I felt often that it was oversimplified and somewhat dismissive of trauma.

Very Clever and Entertaining

Revisado: 09-16-23

A very cleverly written story with lots of little laughs. The voice acting on this version is also a real delight, though as someone who hasn't read the book prior to this I wasn't anticipating the amount of narration vs character talk. I think I expected a little more since this was a fully acted production. Not a problem really, just surprised me.

A decent ending to the series

Revisado: 08-09-23

A generally fun ending to the series with fewer problematic racial depictions than in the second book. As always everything wraps up with a neat little bow at the end and the protagonist has found themselves to be more powerful than they thought.

About more than personal safety

Revisado: 08-04-23

I found this book to be a helpful read. it definitely made me think about the difference between worry and fear, why we feel fear, and many other aspects about personal safety. Additionally though, it talks a lot about trusting your instincts and learning to understand the signals your body is sending you. This is helpful information whether you're concerned about personal safety or just understanding your bodies response to stress and other stimuli. Overall, a very compelling read with lots of helpful information.

Surprise "woo-woo" later in

Revisado: 07-23-23

I found a lot of helpful tidbits in this book that I am working to incorporate into my life. The one hitch in my giddyup is later in the book there is a whole section about taking her autistic 5 year-old son on an extensive trip through Mongolia and visiting many traditional healers and how her child, while not cured of autism. was "cured of the dysfunction" that came with his autism. The author does leave room that it may not have been the healers, but it definitely feels like that's the message and that felt very strange and a bit uncomfortable. It also felt a bit out-of-the-blue considering the other messaging in the book.

An inspiring look at Michelle's life through 2016

Revisado: 04-04-23

A compelling listen from Michelle Obama about her life from childhood through leaving the white house in 2016. I personally was more engaged by the pre-presidential campaign times, but the whole book is good. I did listen at 1.15x speed, which felt like a natural pace as Michelle spoke a bit slowly (but very precisely).

Gripping

Revisado: 10-08-22

this one was difficult to stop listening to. it's a well told, painful, incredible story of one person's growth out of an abusive household into a person who trusts themselves. A long-standing best seller for a reason, this is a truly fascinating and inspiring personal story.
