Story4.5 out of 5 stars 485
A lone narrator meets a railway worker who is confined to a cold, gloomy station in a deep cutting near a tunnel entrance. This worker is a signalman, and it is his responsibility to give the green light for trains to pass through the area. These are slow, monotonous days. The signalman’s life is not marked by much, until the nightmares begin. Three times in a row, a ghost mysteriously appears before the signalman – and with each apparition, a tragic accident unfolds on the rail tracks. Although our narrator doubts the man at first, events soon make him a believer too.

This was my first experience with the story. It was so incredible, the audio was full of background sounds and music adding to the suspense.

Story4 out of 5 stars 4
In the beginning, God created Adam. Then he made Eve. And ever since we’ve been picking up the pieces. Loveology is a theology of love from God’s point of view. The five sessions start with God’s design for marriage and works backward, dealing with sexuality, romance, singleness, and what it means to be male and female. Pastor and writer John Mark Comer shares about what is right in male/female relationships - what God intended in the Garden. And about what is wrong - the fallout in a post-Eden world.

I like Comer, but a synopsis is it’s all good. Marriage and sex, as long as it’s within the law of the bible it’s all beautiful. He doesn’t have many opinions shared path surface level. If you already come to a healthy mindset on marriage and the levels of love and commitment it takes, and have a bible background it may not be anything new.

In In Order to Live, Yeonmi Park shines a light not just into the darkest corners of life in North Korea, describing the deprivation and deception she endured and which millions of North Korean people continue to endure to this day, but also onto her own most painful and difficult memories. She tells with bravery and dignity for the first time the story of how she and her mother were betrayed and sold into sexual slavery in China and forced to suffer terrible psychological and physical hardship before they finally made their way to Seoul, South Korea - and to freedom.

I'm not big on canceling anyone or thing, however, over interviews and in her new book she has completely changed her story into one big knot. In this book she struggled to survive starvation but a years later she says they were aristocrats, in the top 1%. Her story changes as she thinks will be popular. On top of it all in this book she lists the year someone had capital punishment in a stadium to be made example of. Other defectors from the same city have come out to say no killings happened there, or around there.

Totalitarianism is not a coincidence and does not form in a vacuum. It arises from a collective psychosis that has followed a predictable script throughout history. In The Psychology of Totalitarianism, world-renowned Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet deconstructs the societal conditions that allow this collective psychosis to take hold. By looking at our current situation and identifying the phenomenon of “mass formation”—a type of collective hypnosis—he clearly illustrates how close we are to surrendering to totalitarian regimes.

Mystery Unraveled
Reviewed: 07-31-22
I wondered in awe when I saw my fellow medical friends and well educated people falling for fallacious ideas? As I watched a world go mad in front of my eyes I tried desperately to wake them up!
The reactions of people to my concerns went through a weird maze. It seemed like I was walking people out of a tunnel to light in some cases. In others I was absolutely hated and told I was Dangerous for using my words. Still others would rather not be bothered until it became Vogue to agree with me. Then you would think they invented the ideas I shared all along.
This book walked me through my own cave to the light. I now understand not only what happened recently but the what and why's of people's reactions to me my whole life.
I am so grateful to Mattias for sharing what he has learned with the general public. We need him to continue to unravel more mysterious for us. Thank you Mattias!

This is an updated version of how skin care works now, compared to the old version of treating our skin like a piece of wood to be refinished. our skin is an organ, living tissue, not a piece of wood.

I was riveted to his story and I have tears of joy thinking his story is not an end, but a beginning of his life, career, and family times. I will pray it's so. In the meantime you have another supporter .

When Andy Ngo was attacked in the streets by antifa in the summer of 2019, most people assumed it was an isolated incident. But those who'd been following Ngo's reporting in outlets like the New York Post and Quillette knew that the attack was only the latest in a long line of crimes perpetrated by antifa.

This is an informative book, well written, and spell binding. A balance has been struck between a good narrative story of real life events and enough information to educate the reader. Well done Andy!

Appreciate the Truth
Reviewed: 03-02-18
I gratefully heard the truth of the ugliness of slavery. However I was saddened to hear the ugliness that chained the heart of Franklin forevermore. I would have wanted healing, such as Booker T. Washington experienced. Either way, I still appreciate having this story to refer to. May we never forget the evils of slavery!
