Great Summer Reading

Revisado: 08-26-21

I'm late to the party on this series but I'm excited about it. I listen to Audible while working and finished Parable of the Sower today. I'm excited about working tomorrow and starting Book 2. Great narration...looking forward to the next listen.

Soothing

Revisado: 04-01-21

Thank you Tareon for this podcast. I'm almost 55 and recently moved to a new city and a new agency. I'm gifted, talented and black and I'm realizing I may be a threat to some. I listen to this while working and it really puts things into a different perspective for me. My ancestors were verbally and physically abused by whites and nothing has changed but its soooo crafty in 2021! I'm calling on my Mother and Father Ancestor Spirits to help guide me thru these last 7 years of my career. I know they're proud of US and I want them to know I'm not a whiner but geesh...Racism cuts deep when you feel isolated. Please continue on this journey Sis! I'm here for it...and I'm listening. And I'm internalizing the good word you're depositing in my Spirit. Be blessed with you highly favored Self!

This was a very good listen while working. From start to finish, the author puts words to emotions and feelings that I've had since I was a young girl. I've always felt black women and girls are in a category all on our own. I feel like at least one somebody understands my journey. Thanks for sharing Mikki!

My Favorite Author does it again!

Anything Walter Mosley is 5-star to me. Loved the narrator when he narrates the female voices...lol! I'm not surprised by the ending at all and kind of wish the story had lasted a bit longer.

Very Insightful

Revisado: 10-27-20

I honestly didn't think I'd like this book but there were tons of little nuggets that I've incorporated into my meditation practice already. Great job on focus, presence and just having conversations within ourselves and speaking to those parts of us that we hide. I love the concept that everyone has fears, issues, pain and feel discomfort. I keep forgetting that when I experience contrast in my life. And the cow paths! Oh wow!!! Becoming my own best friend has been my m.o. for a while now...and its reassuring to hear someone else say its necessary. Just a great book if you're really trying to learn or unlearn things about yourself. Thank you for sharing your experience...now I don't have to go to a Buddhist monastery for these simple lessons.

Nice Job on the Subject

Revisado: 10-20-20

I tried to return this book but it wouldn't let me and I'm glad. The reason being is because when the author started talking about kids and church and all the stages that I've already been thru I wanted out...until she kept talking about Jesus. Just the mention of His name was enough to keep me engaged in the book and to actually allow me to see the similarities in her story and mine. I found myself saying Amen out loud and actually asking myself the questions near the end. It's refreshing to hear someone else say I don't have it together and I don't have to have it together to be loved and used by God.

I needed to Hear this

Revisado: 10-19-20

This book was helpful to me in this current season of my life. I honestly wasn't taught how to set boundaries and be assertive in friendships. I now have tips to better navigate relationships and to even navigate the toxicity in myself.

I've heard his name and now I've heard his story. One of the best performances on Audible. I love music and stories. This was a combination of both.

This was great! Great performance. I felt like I was listening to one of my older cousins vent about her man. I want more...I want to know what happens next!!!

I wasn't sure if I was a feminist or not until I listened to this book. I love Roxane Gay and try to listen to all of her works.
