Quote-leftIf you are one to shy away from taking action for fear of failure or a mistake, this is the book for YOU. Success is a process. In this bookJohn C. Maxwell will take you on a journey of many people's lives on the way to success. They all make wrong turns and errors along the way. The key is they kept going.Reminds me of a familiar quote. If you find yourself in hell, don't stop, keep going. LOLQuote-right

Quote-leftGood premise, strong beginning and ending, but weak in the middle. The idea behind this book is very original and relevant. We all make mistakes and the exploration of how to learn from those and improve ourselves is a noble task. Maxwell begins well with insightful thoughts on what failure is and is not, how success is born out of failure and how to reframe our perception of our failures. Then the book quickly turns to largely extraneous stories and weak supporting points. The book drags on in this vein for some time. It is not until near the end that things pick back up again. The book ends on a strong note, with practical suggestions of how to "fail forward." This book is worth reading, but be prepared to do some skimming in the middle sections.Quote-right

Plum Spooky

by Janet Evanovich

Turn on all the lights and check under your bed. Things are about to get spooky in Trenton, New Jersey. According to legend, the Jersey Devil prowls the Pine Barrens and soars above the treetops in the dark of night. As eerie as this might seem, there are things in the Barrens that are even more frightening and dangerous. And there are monkeys. Lots of monkeys. more
