I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I am a fan of Ms. Wiseman's writing - specifically, all the research she does to write her books. I did not know much about the coal industry at all. I feel like I have a pretty good grasp of it after reading Coal River. I love historical books because I like to learn while I read. Emma is a young woman who once lived in Coal River. She's vowed to never return for very good reason. After becoming an orphan years later, she finds herself back in Coal River at her Uncle Otis' home. He is the local coal mine owner and a brutal, harsh man. Her Aunt Ida only wants Emma in the home to provide free maid duties. Emma has a past history with her cousin Percy and is not happy to live in their home. Emma has maid duties as well as store clerk duties in the coal mine's general store. She begins to learn about the coal mine and how its employees are treated. Most upsetting to her is how young the breaker boys are and how dangerous their jobs are. I don't give away spoilers so I'll just say this was a spectacular, emotional read that is so well written. I was often sad while reading it, but also found a lot of hope in Emma. (from my Goodreads review)

This book is really funny and amazing! It’s about a couple of high schoolers who develop super powers and try to save the world. There is a tiny bit of romance but it doesn’t really get too annoying for those who don’t love romance like me. It’s a fun read and I really enjoyed listening to it. I highly recommend this book!

In The Power of Regret, Daniel H. Pink challenges the idea that we should live with "no regrets." Instead, he argues that regret is not only normal but essential to living a meaningful, thoughtful life. Drawing on research from psychology, neuroscience, and a global survey of regrets, Pink shows that regret can clarify what we value, sharpen our decision-making, and help us grow. Rather than avoiding regret, we should listen to it, learn from it, and use it as a tool for improvement. He identifies four core types of regret that people around the world commonly experience: 1. Foundation Regrets – “If only I had been more responsible…” 2. Boldness Regrets – “If only I had taken the chance…” 3. Moral Regrets – “If only I had done the right thing…” 4. Connection Regrets – “If only I had reached out…” By recognizing these patterns, we can make better choices going forward and deepen our relationships, careers, and personal growth. Ultimately, The Power of Regret flips the script: regret isn’t a weakness—it’s a powerful human emotion that, when handled well, helps us live more intentionally and become better versions of ourselves.

David Brooks weaves ideas about historical figures to create a thoughtful, timely read.

A little slow in the beginning because of all the Science info. but gets better as book goes on.
