A DOG'S PURPOSE


A Dog's Purpose
by W. Bruce Cameron


This is not a novel, it is an autobiography of Baily, Doodle Dog The Boy's dog. A dog with purpose through several life times just to come back to The Boy. Heart breaking and tear jerking, I loved this book. I really started and kept believing that this is the true secret psychological life story of this dog and the thoughts and life of all other dogs. It was so amazing that this author got it right on as to how most of the books thought and believe how dogs life their life and are thinking in their minds.

THE GOON SQUAD


A Visit From The Goon Squad
by Jennifer Egan


Certainly well written, probably too well for me at the moment but I kept getting lost. There were different stories going on but I was not engrossed and focused to follow well. Several people who were involved in the music business and a few of their dysfunctional time alone and together.
One promising young woman was a kleptomaniac who's family were worried about her and took off to Italy.

Then there was a man once involved with her that went off and had his own life.
I could not figure out clearing what on earth was the goon squad. The other man in the book, as a father of someone had hated women, but kept marrying them and loving his daughter and making more kids. He was a music producer I think.

A bunch of these people went on an African Safari together one time and reflected on it for a life time as well as the author reflected on how their lives were going to be in the future while integrating in Africa. Interesting book, again, certainly exceptionally well written.

BYRON KATIE


I Need Your Love
by Byron Katie


Very nice in helping one, as in myself to take more responsibility to negative thinking and what it does to ones psyche. Which is not so good to do so and creates the energy that stays in the body. At least that is what I got from it. Basically it included many stories of other people's thinking and how they turn their judgement around on themselves to find out exactly how they are thinking.

KATE ATKINSON

One Good Turn
by Kate Atkinson


This includes many characters that are witness and participates in an incident in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is hard to follow and all very diverse, but it slowly reveals the coincidence of all involved. Sort a crime mystery if I can continue to follow.
One retired detective seems to be the common thread that keeps the story together. He is hooked up with an actress in a relationship that is on the skids and seems to start up with a woman cop. All wraps up in the end with one man who has died and who is the biggest crook involved with the Russians in fraud, prostitution and murder.
