  • Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle By: Emily Nagoski

    Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle By: Emily Nagoski

    A self help book for WOMEN. Honestly that’s all I got. I can’t even pretend to write a synopsis for this book without being a total snot. I didn’t find this book unhelpful, but I found it offensive. When it comes to self-help style books the reader needs to hear the truth. There will be…

    A GOOD MAN BY: ANI KATZ

    Interesting… This was an interesting read. I wanted to set it down and walk away a few times while reading but in the end finished it. The writing style, at first, made me angry.

  • A COMEDIAN WALKS INTO A FUNERAL HOME BY: DENNIS KELLY

    A COMEDIAN WALKS INTO A FUNERAL HOME BY: DENNIS KELLY

    This book didn’t hit the mark for me. In the beginning of the book the comedian bombed in a competition. That scenario happened over and over for me while reading this book.    I didn’t enjoy the humor of the book. I am not saying the book was depressing … more … nothing clicked. I didn’t…
