5.0 out of 5 stars Good Fun Read Interesting WorldsOctober 30, 2014

This review is from: Mad Tinker's Daughter (Mad Tinker Chronicles Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
First in a series, creative, interesting look at some interesting worlds. Minor confusion in a few spots, but that was probably just me not paying attention. Was good enough I got the 2nd book. Easy to sympathize with some characters, but not others, though your experience probably depends on your own choices in life. Good fun read.

I have toyed around with Steampunk books off and on over the last few years. It's difficult to hold on to the theme without going overboard into stereotype. The idea of two alternate phases to a same world with some people sharing a spirit between the worlds is interesting, and played out well in this book. It took a little while to locate the versions of each in the two worlds and figure out how they interact across the dimension or whatever. Interesting enough to get the 2nd book as a Prime selection of the month.

Review: The 10 Biggest #Workout Mistakes

The 10 Biggest Workout Mistakes: Are one of these mistakes slowing your progress? by Dr. Len Lopez My rating: 3 of 5 stars So/So. Average. 3. yep. If you took a handful of bullet points, wrapped them in repetitive catch-phrases, and added in some links to your other projects, you'd have this book. Would it be at all helpful to anyone? Yes, if you are needing to do actual aerobic exercise and need to be smacked in the face with it over and over and over until it works finally - this might be the book that does that. If you're trying to get in shape or achieve some specific level of fitness, then no. View all my reviews

New Year, New You, Amazing Bling Deal

Your New Year should include at least a couple of different things. Resolutions and/or Goals Rewards and/or Compensations I know you probably haven't really thought about either of those yet, but now that Christmas is out of the way it's time to get cracking on it. FREE WEBINAR - START NOW Resolutions and/or Goals First of all, you need a plan. I'm sure you've heard the ads from NordicTrack that incline training burns more fat faster than just about any other type of training. I have a NordicTrack incline treadmill myself, and I love it. But did you know that you can do the exact same type of training without one? Regular treadmills often go up to 15% incline and that's plenty steep enough for most training goals. You can also use stairs, box stepping, and hill running. I wrote a book about how to succeed at incline training, and I want you to have a free paperback copy of it worth $26.55 . That's the current price that Amazon is charging today ...

Review: Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle

Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle: How To Be Healthy, Lose Weight, Burn Fat, Get Lean and Build Muscle Without Life Sucking by R.J Strife My rating: 4 of 5 stars If you're totally new, or just curious about Intermittent Fasting, this is a good 30,000' view. If you're vaguely familiar with IF, this shows a couple of optional protocols to follow. If you want in-depth info, this isn't the book, though author does touch on some concepts on long-term use. If you take some of these ideas and do some of your own research, you will quickly be able to make your own decisions. A handful of relatively minor editing errors. View all my reviews
