Devil in the White City - reading

Finished "Devil in the White City" by Erik Larson. Thanks to Leap Year, I got an extra day and finished a second book in February.

This is one that Jess picked up and read first, recommending it to me. Then I heard there was going to be a movie made with Leonardo DiCaprio. Alright, I'll read it.

It's a good book, and very descriptive of the World's Fair. I expected a little more intertwining of the two story threads and was a little disappointed by how that played out, but each story was interesting in its own right. It was a little like reading two books at once.

I look forward to the movie!

Do the Work - reading

Finished "Do the Work: Overcome Resistance and Get Out of Your Own Way" by Steven Pressfield. Someone on one of the many Facebook groups I'm on recommended it, and I was in need of something to read, so I figured, "why not?"

This is less a book and more a glorified blog post, with a lot of white space and big fonts. The content was okay, but not worth the price of admission, in my opinion. I read it in an evening. Compared to "Rebel Without a Crew," this fell short for me. Your mileage may vary.
