Necessary Endings by Henry Cloud

Necessary Endings: The Employees, Businesses, and Relationships That All of Us Have to Give Up in Order to Move Forward by Henry Cloud
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A friend who knows I have some serious FOMO gave this to me. The ironic thing is that I got a little bored of this book about halfway through, and I wanted to give up on it, but I couldn't... I had the same circular argument with myself each time I picked it up. Anyway, I powered through it and there are some better points towards the end regarding urgency to do the things that matter most and how to communicate with others to bring about endings.

Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment and How It Can Help You Find -- and Keep -- Love by Amir Levine
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is amazing. It's the love handbook the world has been waiting for, and I can't speak too highly of it. Also, I suspect that the only reason it doesn't have 5 stars is because it confronts a lot of people with a lot of truths they don't want to face about themselves or their relationships.

The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz

The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love this novel. Despite the fact that the book is a Pulitizer Prize winner, I had heard some negative things, and I wasn't expecting to like it that much. I love it. Junot Diaz is amazing and I refuse to even debate that with anyone until he or she reads this book. Not only are the characters completely formed people but the way they relate to each other is totally real. The story itself operates on so many levels, the real, the political, the magical, and the spiritual. Did I mention I love this novel? Also... I suspect "fuku".... bad language alert... is just "fuck you" with a Spanish accent.
