"I've had numbers people tell me to read this book over the course of the past 2 years and I finally decided to get the audiobook because it actually saved me time. I am always in my car or in an office and I find that the little time I do have I spend it doing chores and cooking food. It just seems like I have less and less time to read a good book as the years go by which is unfortunate because I love burying my face in books. This author's voice is very easy to listen to and follow. I did not find myself dozing off or tuning out. Because the chapters are fairly short, it was easy to absorb. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and the subject matter. Really inspired me!"

" More a 3.8 but short of a 4 for me given that the word love is used here so ubiquitously that at times it's hard for someone to grasp the meaning and essence of what love is to a cynic. Nonetheless it's still an insightful read with some glitter of gems. "
