Historia
In January 2023, bestselling author Johann Hari started to inject himself once a week with Ozempic, the diabetes drug that produces significant weight loss. He wasn’t alone—credible predictions suggest that in two years, a quarter of the U.S. population will be taking this class of drug. Proponents say that this is a biological solution to a biological problem. While 95 percent of diets fail, the average person taking one of the new drugs will lose a quarter of their body weight in six months, and keep it off for as long as they take it.

This book was amazing and the information contained herein was incredibly important for the 2 issues raised. The introduction of this treatment will change our society and it’s important to be informed before having an opinion.

While I don’t agree with the thoughts expressed about evolution, the discussion about the necessity of human connection is salient at this moment in time.

Historia
Ziwe made a name for herself by asking guests like Alyssa Milano, Fran Lebowitz, and Chet Hanks direct questions. In Black Friend, she turns her incisive perspective on both herself and the culture at large. Throughout the book, Ziwe combines pop-culture commentary and personal stories that grapple with her own (mis)understanding of identity. From a hilarious case of mistaken identity via a jumbotron to a terrifying fight-or-flight encounter in the woods, Ziwe raises difficult questions for comedic relief.

Historia
Growing up in the 1960s in the suburbs of Chicago, Meg Kissinger’s family seemed to live a charmed life. With eight kids and two loving parents, the Kissingers radiated a warm, boisterous energy. Whether they were spending summer days on the shores of Lake Michigan, barreling down the ski slopes, or navigating the trials of their Catholic school, the Kissingers always knew how to live large and play hard. But behind closed doors, a harsher reality was unfolding.

There are several areas of life that I enjoyed in this book. But above all, the insights about mental health, self-knowledge and family dynamics were the most powerful. Amazing.

This writing was masterful in its use of language and artistic in the accomplishment of its purpose. I’m so glad Audible suggested this to me.
“If you have found the books, then you have found the door and secret to Tamba’s resistance. Do come by, where the red mound of earth still remains tall, and see us. You now have eyes and ears for this unknown history of yours.”

Historia
Spanning the years 1900 to 1977, The Covenant of Water is set in Kerala, on South India’s Malabar Coast, and follows three generations of a family that suffers a peculiar affliction: in every generation, at least one person dies by drowning—and in Kerala, water is everywhere. At the turn of the century, a twelve-year-old girl from Kerala’s long-existing Christian community, grieving the death of her father, is sent by boat to her wedding, where she will meet her forty-year-old husband for the first time.

Classics - A designation as described by Mark Twain of the highest caliber, that survive where other books die. That word, does not sufficiently describe their profundity. There are several of these that I cherish.
But in reading this book, I discovered a category that I did not know existed. There are books that are so good, it should have been impossible that they were written. They surpass what I already revere with my whole being. And that’s saying a lot because of the authors I already consider genius. This is a book that is so good, it should not exist. It’s like the infinitesimal odds that allow the universe to exist as it is.
