Review from Running to the Edge →
This is in general, a good book, written from the perspective of many participants. I enjoyed the narrative and most of the story. However, there’s a fair amount of anti African and anti immigrant sentiment in it and sometimes it comes off as pretty racist. Even when the protagonist is an African (Meb), there’s a..
Review from American Serial Killers →
Very well done. Narration was great. The book was well written. Now to see what others books I can find from this author.
Great teachings within the book, but it felt like there were a lot of terms that I didn’t understand.

I always wondered about the early vision and mission of those lucky,..

Really enjoyed this book. Before I started, there was a lot I didn’t know. Now I definitely know more.
Review from Forever for a Year →
This book is definitely NOT what I was thinking it was. It was a lot of nonsense with music playing in the background, which I didn’t really get. The love story — if that’s what you’d call it — is a whole lot of “I love you”s without any kind of substance. On the other..
Review from Auténtico, Second Edition →
