Good book.

This book messed with my head in the best possible way. Last night I was scared while laying in bed and tonight my jaw on the ground. I haven’t had such a reaction to a book in a while and I LOVED IT! This was the perfect mix of horror and psychological thriller.

In Drive, Daniel H. Pink explores what truly motivates people, not just in the workplace, but in life. He argues that the traditional system of rewards and punishments—what he calls “carrots and sticks”—is outdated and often ineffective, especially for modern, creative, or cognitive tasks. Instead, Pink reveals that human motivation is driven by three key elements: 1. Autonomy – the desire to direct our own lives, 2. Mastery – the urge to get better at something that matters, 3. Purpose – the yearning to do work that has meaning and contributes to something larger than ourselves. He draws on decades of research in psychology and behavioral science to show that while external rewards can work for simple, mechanical tasks, they can actually reduce motivation and creativity when it comes to deeper, more thoughtful work. He calls for a shift in how we think about work, education, and management—moving away from control and toward trust, engagement, and internal drive. When people are given space to grow and a reason to care, they don’t need to be pushed—they’re already motivated to move forward.

This book was so funny and I loved how the plot was set up and how interesting this graphic novel was!

I really liked it but it was a bit boring at times but my favorite was being able to see how ivy reacted to sunny who was a former protagonist

My first Stephanie Wrobel thriller - she has an excellent method of building mystery with very interesting and unusual settings - this one had me on edge from the start. I plan to read all her books.

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I stumbled upon this book while searching my library's mystery shelves. I am a big fan of the Gilded Age and this sounded like a good read. Pamela Thompson is used to living richly and spending her time volunteering at charities. Unfortunately, her husband has foolishly spent their fortune in a scam. Pamela and her husband lose everything. Then Pamela loses her husband, Jack. She then takes over a boardinghouse that is one of her investments since she and her ward Brenda can live there. Pamela becomes a store detective at Macy's. This was my favorite part of the book. I loved reading about her training with Harry, the store setting, all of the items for sale back then. Pamela goes on to become a compation to Lydia Jennings, a rich woman who thinks there is something amiss with her household finances, staff, etc. I also loved the friendship that forms with Pamela's attorney boss, Prescott. I struggled to figure out who the murderer was - which is always a fun thing for a reader. I love the constant guessing game while reading a good mystery book. I plan on reading the other books in this series because I really liked how strong Pamela became while remaining a lady in those times. (from my Goodreads review)

This book is the sequel to Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods. In this book, Percy Jackson explains all about some of the heroes in different Greek Myths. Still with humor and sarcasm of course. Awesome read.

Not as gripping as Cerulean Sea, but a lovely, almost cozy apocalyptic story

This book was awesome. I won’t write this much this time because I this is the third time that I am writing. It deleted twice, twice!!! But this book is great i only don’t like how the dog doesn’t not understand that teh first owner is dead. I listened to this half of the way to Maine.
