Think Again: The Power of Knowing What You Don't Know

I don’t do a ton of reading but this book by Adam Grant literally is the reason I’m back in school. It gave me the courage to reconsider new ways I could finish my education. When I attempted college the first time around I didn’t know I had ADHD and was bi-polar. The damage of failure and not knowing why was enough to fear ever going back. This book made me”Rethink” how could I attempt going back to school but with a new attitude and new tools to help me be successful. It’s a great read for business or just self help.

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow: A novel By Gabrielle Zevin

I quickly fell in love with the characters of this book. It’s a great story about two college friends who become creative partners developing video games. It came highly recommended by a friend who is a voracious reader and then I heard the author as a guest on Adam Grants podcast. Though I’m not a gamer and you don’t have to be to enjoy this book it became one of my favorite reads in quite awhile. I can’t recommend this book enough!

Loved, loved loved Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow. I have zero interest in video games but character development in this book was outstanding.

Watched both Hitman films. The 2007 version with Timothy Olyphant was bad but acceptable as a guilty pleasure movie. The 2015 version with Rupert Friend is an abomination.

Same with me, no interest in the video games but I fell in love with the characters. Took awhile to get the book out of my head. I actually couldn’t pick up another book for about two weeks. I was in a bit of withdrawal.

If you are a fan of NCIS or procedural dramas in general, you owe it to youself to catch up and watch the first season of NCIS: Origins. I won't go so far as to say it's must watch TV, but it's a damned solid show, especially if you like the original NCIS.

I only watched the pilot. It was okay, I guess?
