Story4.5 out of 5 stars 635
At a time when toxic individualism is rending our society at every level, bestselling author and renowned marriage counselor Terrence Real sees how it poisons intimate relationships in his therapy practice, where he works with couples on the brink of disaster. The good news: Warmer, closer, more passionate relationships are possible if you have the right tools. In his transformative new book Us, Real brilliantly observes how our winner-takes-all culture infiltrates families with devastating results.

- By: Terrence Real

He sounds like his mouth is full of marbles. The author comes across as inauthentic and not relatable
Reviewed: 05-18-24
The narrarator's cadence was stilted, weird pauses, inflections and intonation made it hard to follow the story to the point of irritation. Add in a wet sounding lisp, and I was wayyy to distracted. As far as the case references and the random anecdotes, the author came across as preachy, inauthentic and stereotypical (the odd reference/description of race ie. LatinX)... Super out of touch Boomer-trying-to-sound-relevant. (I'm a GenX Liberal and it made me cringe). . Overall, I feel there are so many better books out there and this one was a fad recommendation that fell flat.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 711
Strength dwindles as the Talbot tribe make their trek into the Darien Gap, 60 miles of broken highway and inhospitable terrain through the sweltering Central American wilderness. Stinging from their recent losses, the group is forced to sleep suspended in trees to avoid the hordes thriving there, but that brings only a temporary, miserable reprieve.

Vampires and humans live side by side thanks to an uneasy peace maintained by the Assembly. As an Arbiter for the powerful organization, Miles Watson is authorized to act as judge, jury, and executioner for anyone—living or undead—who breaks the law. But now Miles is up against a threat more sinister than anything he's seen in his centuries as a vampire. A criminal network in London is offering wealthy humans the chance to become vampires without the Assembly's consent. When the process goes disastrously wrong, the Boss wants to eliminate any trace of the fiasco.

Steve Mchugh's new novel about a world were Vanpires have come out of the dark and join the human world.
Miles is a Vampire, an investigator and much like Church (his dog) doesn't let go when he sinks his teeth into an investigation.
This was a fun action packed tale! Great read as allways!

Lucas Rurik is no stranger to navigating the tricky territory between humans and those touched by the rift. After all, as the last surviving member of the Raven Guild, protecting the peace is his job. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. As much as Lucas would like to be out hunting for Dr. Callie Mitchell—a deranged scientist with a bad habit of experimenting on the rift-fused—his friends at the Rift-Crime Unit require his expertise on a perilous case.

Bill Ryder is having a hell of a week. Magic is back, one of his friends has been entombed in solid rock, and he once again has no pulse to speak of. Too bad it’s about to get worse. Something is hunting vampires in New York City. A smarmy wizard has been called in to investigate, one with skeletons in his closet and eyes for Bill’s girlfriend. All the while, neolithic horrors - not seen since the dawn of time - are reappearing, wreaking havoc wherever they step.

Welcome to The Blinds, a dusty town in rural Texas populated by misfits who don't know if they've perpetrated a crime or just witnessed one. What's clear to them is that if they leave, they will end up dead. For eight years, Sheriff Calvin Cooper has kept an uneasy peace - but after a suicide and a murder in quick succession, the town's residents revolt.

Eighteen-year-old Aidan Salt isn't a superhero. With his powerful (and unpredictable) telekinetic abilities, he could be one if he wanted to, but he doesn't. He's unambitious, selfish, and cowardly, and he doesn't want to have to deal with all the paperwork required to become a professional superhero. But since the money, fame, and women that come with wearing the cape are appealing, he decides to become the first supervillain the world has seen in more than 20 years: Apex Strike.

Alway fun when an author throws the hero trope out the window and give us the villain as an antihero. This is one of those wonderful stories!

Been hooked on this series since the first book. not certain how Conoe keeps tension while you read about nearly indestructible online powerful beings but he does, and does it well.
