I met Kevin in Sedona where I live. He is a very spiritual and wonderful character. Speaking with him is like transcending into a different realm. His book is emotionally raw and real. This is what he lives and testifies in his book. No holding back, no trying to please the reader - just himself. It is a life's journey written from his heart with honesty. It is very easy to read like it is to speak with him it person. I usually read books only before bed time but is a book I picked up during day time and that is a rare for me.

A light on the path

In the Fall of 2004 I was on my second visit to Sedona, a place of amazing beauty and powerful spiritual energy. Among other places I visited was a mini shopping mall in which was a tobacco shop. Wanting a good cigar I stopped in and made a purchase. I asked the manager if I could sit just outside the store on the terrace and enjoy my purchase. The man not only said yes, he also joined me, and there followed over an hour of marvelous conversation about life and spirituality. That man was the author of this book, Kevin Westrich. Having met the man, and now having read his book, I recommend it with my highest endorsement. The book is written in a very conversational style, as if Kevin was in the room with you, speaking to you about the remarkable life he has lead. His book is an intense and deeply personal account of one man's journey on the path to spiritual life and fulfillment, a path that everyone must follow. For the rest of us, Kevin's story is a true light on that path.

Title: Harry's Favourite Thing

Subtitle: My Story Behind the BBC4 Documentary, 'Swim the Channel'

Author: Al Gale

Narrator: Peter Murray

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 56 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-19-17

Publisher: Alan Gale

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Our son Harry died in my arms when he was 10 months old.

He had actually survived far longer than experts had predicted. Cared for by Acorns Children's Hospice, his support had cost over 100,000.

Years later, inspired by another bereaved parent, I decided I would undertake a sponsored physical challenge that would take me well beyond my personal comfort zone: Having never swum further than around a mile, I decided to attempt swimming the infamous English Channel.

This book charts Harry's short life, and tells the back-story of my Channel attempt, as shown on BBC4's Swim the Channel documentary.

Members Reviews:

Highly Recommended

Harryâs Favourite Thing is an extraordinary story that will leave you in awe. The first part of the book is a bittersweet account of what no parent should have to face. I was in tears and felt so much compassion for this family and their endurance through such a trying time. And my heart was breaking for sweet, innocent, little Harry. Al Gale delicately and distinctly chronicles Harryâs life and their parental tenacity to provide as much joy as possible given the circumstances. This story made me appreciate more, having a healthy child, and made me love my son that much more.

Alâs decision to do something grand to honor his son and to pay it forward to Acorns is inspiring. His dedicated hard work and endurance to aim high and swim The English Channel is something only few can achieve. He states he failed...I do not believe that he failed. Al made a bold, successful attempt; but the conditions were out of his control. In my opinion he succeeded!

A well-written story of heartbreak and ultimate tenacity. A highly recommended read.

Publisher: Blue Sky Chateau

Publisher's Summary:

At 18 years of age, I pledged my "I do" and believed that from that moment on I would live happily ever after. Coming from a broken family, I now was the bride of a successful and noted Israeli journalist, a man who had his finger tips on the pulse of the world... who now chose to love and cherish me! I was considered to be the luckiest girl in Tel Aviv.

"You are beautiful and I love you. I can mold you the way I wish," he said, and I took it as a great compliment.

The following days of my life were an eye opener.... Reality hit, and I was faced with the facts of life, trying to prove my worth to him and to society. Right and wrong, good and bad, love and hate, shame and blame, I was determined to make a sense of it all.

Only six years later, as life took many surprising turns, he left me a "love letter" and committed suicide. I suddenly became the woman whose husband killed himself.

With the authentic vulnerability of a young girl, I take you with me on my journey from ashes to triumph, from broken heart to celebrating life.

Members Reviews:

Intelligent and Inspiring example of never giving up on yourself

I recommend this book for anyone who has ever been physically challenged. It's a book intelligently layed-out with life lessons and examples of Bill Shaner's incredible journey of overcoming paralysis. At the same time, we relive his search for meaning and true happiness in the world. Bill has written a comprehensive book filled with many different approaches that he's learned and experienced first hand. As he correctly points out, "nothing is ever completely black and white". His interpretation of many of life's "grey areas" steered him in the right direction. An unwavering positive outlook, along with combination of focus, determination and spirituality enabled him to never give up hope and defy overwhelming odds. He was told there was a 99% chance he would never walk again. Bill Shaner played the hand he was dealt and parlayed that 1% chance into a rewarding outcome. I give him all the credit in the world. He has my praise and admiration. If you are intrigued by stories of "inner strength", this book has great insight and details a man in the prime of life hitting rock bottom and fighting his way back to the top. Anyone who needs a kick-start to realize their dreams should buy this book. "Unintended Consequences" will inspire anyone who reads it.

Life Changing!

I have to tell everyone that Bill's book honestly changed my life! I went from believing that life is a random series of events that just happen to us to believing that we all have the incredible ability to create the life and the outcomes that we really desire. From the first page I was completely engrossed. Bill's story of fighting to walk again and the spiritual journey that follows is beyond inspirational. I have many pages of his book earmarked and I continually go back to certain paragraphs to remind me of how to handle situations in my life and to keep the great outlook that I now have.

Titel: Heinrich von Kleist: Leben und Werk

Autor:: Christian Liederer

Erzähler: Axel Thielmann

Format: Unabridged

Spieldauer: 2 hrs and 26 mins

Sprache: Deutsch

Veröffentlichungsdatum: 11-15-17

Herausgeber: SAGA Egmont

Kategorien: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Das Leben Heinrich von Kleists war reich an Krisen. Bereits mit 14 Jahren in den preußischen Militärdienst getreten, führt seine Bekanntschaft mit den Ideen Kants und anderer Aufklärer zu inneren Konflikten, die ihm eine militärische Laufbahn als unmöglich erscheinen lassen. Seine Karrierepläne als Gelehrter und Dichter scheitern zunächst ebenfalls, und auch viele weitere seiner Projekte bleiben erfolglos: Sei es die Buchhandlung mit Verlag, die er gründen möchte, sei es eine Anstellung in der fränkischen Provinzverwaltung oder seine Zeitschriften, die entweder kurz nach Gründung wieder eingehen oder aber gar nicht erst zum Druck kommen.

Doch diesem Leben, dem er schon nach 34 Jahren selbst ein Ende setzte, hat er einige der bedeutendsten und bis heute aufregendsten Werke abgerungen, die die deutsche Literatur besitzt. Christian Liederer zeichnet ein Bild der Kleistschen Biographie, in das er die Vorstellung seiner wichtigsten Dramen und Erzählungen einbettet. Klug und lebensnah!

Title: An Afro-German Family in Nazi Germany

Subtitle: The Story of the Sabac el Chers

Author: Veronica Kuzniar-Clark

Narrator: Teague Dean

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 48 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-06-17

Publisher: Veronika's Research & Essay Service

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 7 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

This is the virtually unknown story of Gustav Sabac el Cher. Gustav, a black man with a gift for discipline and music, grew up in Königsberg and became "the only black bandmaster of the German Army."

This fact-filled story takes the listener back in time, over 150 years ago. There we meet the controversial Prussian Prince Albrecht, getting to know him via his travel adventures, as well as in war. Prince Albrecht brought many things from Arabia back to Prussia, one of which was a "human gift" from the Egyptian Viceroy Muhammad Ali: a seven-year-old dark-skinned boy. He was given the name August Albrecht Sabac el Cher and accompanied the Prince from that point on.

The social climate of the Prussian state of the 40s and 50s was one of curiosity towards "others", not hostility. August's dark skin greatly benefited him, in fact. His career at Court flourished. In 1867, he married a German woman, Anna Maria Jung, the daughter of a Berlin clothesmaker. While the happy couple lived relatively trouble-free in Germany, their two children, Gustav and Elise, were dealt a different fate, as were their children who came of age in Nazi Germany.

Utilizing records and eyewitness accounts, this wonderful little book paints a comprehensive depiction of the whole family. One learns, for example, that Gustav's sons, Herbert and Horst, were deeply loved by all. Both mastered music early on and both pursued professional careers. While Herbert continued in this vein with measurable success, Horst was not so fortunate. In 1943 he was drafted as a Wehrmacht medic!

Learned Something New!

In the early 1800s, Prussian Prince Albrecht traveled to Arabia where an Egyptian viceroy gifted the prince a young dark-skinned boy who became known as August Albrecht Sabac el Cher. Sabac el Cher traveled extensively with the prince and in 1867 married a German woman, Anna Maria Jung. Their life seems to have been fairly successful, but follow their children and their families through later Prussian and German governments through their occupations. The trace of the careers is interesting and offers a unique perspective.

I was intrigued by the title for this new audio release and found the author's research and treatment into the subject an excellent new resource. I really hope that more of the books by Veronica Kuzniar-Clark will be made available as audio books. Excellent topic! Definitely check out the author's web site referenced with the book's description since there are more books on similar topics.

Excellent choice for the topic and history! Definitely listen to this one soon.

Title: Being Functional

Subtitle: A Memoir by Atticus Blake

Author: Atticus Blake

Narrator: Atticus Blake

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 22 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-05-17

Publisher: Christopher Eldridge

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Atticus Blake is an unsuspecting young gay boy who, early on in life, was derailed from the true admission of who he was. Having the influences of obsessive-compulsive disorder, religion, confusion, love, and obsession, he hides who he is from everyone he loves. That is, until his doubts overcame his fear of learning and led him to reason, rationality, and, most of all, acceptance of his sexuality.

A few spelling and punctuation errors here and there. ...

A few spelling and punctuation errors here and there. Thatâs to be expected with a self published book. But this book was well written and engaging. I reccomend it.

No matter your situation, there is something in here to relate to

If you aren't familiar with Atticus Blake through his YouTube channel or the podcast Lemme Finish, then much of what he discusses in this will be new to you. Even if you are a long time follower of both his channel and the podcast, and are familiar with many of the stories told within, you will still find yourself being punched in the feels several times during the novel.

I found myself able to relate to what he went through, found myself tearing up at times, and filled with protective anger at others. There were times where I wanted to put down the book because in my head it meant that he wouldn't go through what I knew was coming next.

That's how hard the book hit me.

Having listened to Atticus' channel for a few years now, it was his voice narrating the whole time I was reading, which made it all the more real to me.

On to the nitpicks:

There are a few syntax and spelling errors that pop up from time to time, but not enough to take away from the novel itself.

It could use with a bit of light editing to take out extra words or spots where something got edited but not completely fixed. (Again, these do not take away from the novel itself)

In all this book is well worth the purchase, and I would recommend it to any of my friends, especially my LGBT+ friends who might be going through similar situations.

Heartfelt, hilarious and well worth your time

Funny, touching and vibrant. Atticus Blake can paint a vivid picture with only a few words while relating a story that is at once personal and universal. He has the ability to turn what could have been a series of vignettes into flowing story with each tale touching the other. Chronicling his life from boyhood and his struggles with OCD, faith and sexuality while never failing to find the humor and humanity in all of the characters, situations and settings that he carefully presents to the reader.

It's like journeying with an old friend

I binge listened to this story. It's like journeying with an old friend. Moving, funny, and so real.
