Exactly the kind of break from depressing non-fiction that I needed. I definitely fell in love with Bob. Very glad I read this one. 4.3 stars...more

There’s really just not that much in here. Kind of strange. Was hoping for more of an MK ultra vibe. It just jumps all over the place. If you’ve done There’s really just not that much in here.

So far a great collection of essays. I realize that this doesn’t represent all Jewish people, but I still think it’s an important perspective. I’m really enjoying this so far. I’m a little hesitant to compare Israel to the far right but perhaps that’s just rethinking that I need to do. 4.4 stars...more

This book is so unbelievably mind-blowingly good that I can’t believe more people read it. If you’re on the fence- yes. Read this. It’s incredibly scientific but in the best way. It breaks down everything that society is doing wrong. All therapists, counselors, and people who care should read this. I’m pretty stingy with my stars but this is 5 stars, no question. ...more

It’s a little hard to read because it doesn’t flow smoothly, but I’m enjoying the topic. There’s no complete overview of exactly what happened so you sort of have to piece it together yourself but it’s easy to do. It could have been a little better but I still really liked it and would recommend it. 3.9 stars...more
