A former Tesla President, Jon McNeill, details the ruthless operational framework Elon Musk used to drive hypergrowth at Tesla. The core philosophy is based on rapid, radical simplification and putting the customer's entire experience at the forefront of business strategy. As I am heavily involved with operations excellence at my current work, it was a great book to read. Here are my five takeaways. 1. Question Every Requirement: Do not accept rules at face value. Keep asking "why" until you are absolutely convinced a rule is a hard requirement, rather than an outdated custom or preference. 2. Delete Every Possible Step in a Process: Radically simplify. Strip away any step, process, or feature that the customer does not ultimately pay for. 3. Simplify and Optimize: Apply ruthless simplification to products, organizations, strategies, and communications. 4. Accelerate Cycle Time: Speed up the entire lifecycle, from raw materials to cash collection, to create an advantage over competitors. 5. Automate Last: Do not automate a flawed or bloated process. Optimize and delete unnecessary steps first, then automate to increase scale.

Lovely discovery of this new author…stumbled upon by accident. I really enjoyed her style of writing, it was light but engaging with some humor & depth. This story was an easy page turner and I’m looking forward to reading more by this author.

This book was really good! I loved it, it was so emotional and really sweet.

I picked this book off the shelf at the library because of how short it was, which crossed off another book on the NYT's Summer Reading Bucket List - "read a really short, or a really long, book." I thought it was a cute story packed into 133 pages. Wasn't the most amazing writing in the world, but it wasn't the worst either.

I enjoyed the book. It was funny, sad and memorable all at once. It gave me some perspective about that time in Lebanon (I am of Lebanese background). It also made me smile about the relationship of the Arabic mother and her children (love, food, love, love, love)!

All areas of women's health with natural options.

One of my favorite series! I just recently got the fifth book so I wanted to restart the Wilderlore series. I personally think that the third and fourth books are the best, but the first one is really good too! I recommend it to everyone, even if you don’t think you like fantasy. The characters are really deep and there are so many unexpected turns. The author is also incredible at imagery, and I always know exactly what the setting is like. Read this series immediately!

I thought the book was good. A little predictable, but I enjoyed hearing it narrated by Viola Davis.

Such a fabulous, heartwarming novel! I loved Theo almost immediately at the story’s start and just liked him more and more as the story continued and I didn’t want it to end. Every character was unique and likable and a great addition to the storyline. The plot was creative and engaging. Highly recommend this one to anyone and everyone!

I read this because I was bored and wanted an easier read. While this book is pretty short (249 pages) and easy to read, the story is really good, and especially relatable for people with siblings. This book is really good if you want something to fly through but still enjoy!
