The Enneagram is a personality system based on a person’s innate motivations. Broken down into nine types, the Enneagram can give a person insight into why they tend to make their choices they make in life. This system also realizes that each person can have nuances, so each type has two wings and then reaches toward another type when stressed and a different type when in a growth mode. While it can sound complicated, The Road Back to You breaks down each type into an easy-to-understand format. Each number has a chapter and describes that person in-depth. Readers won’t walk away wondering which number they are – they’ll know.

I enjoyed listening to The Other Woman as an audiobook. I did guess pretty correctly how the book was going to end, so it would have been nice if it had been a bit more of a surprise. (Even my friends said the same thing about the book, which I found out after I started reading it.) I can see how fans of Tom Clancy would enjoy Daniel Silva books. I don’t often read this genre, but when I do, I want to read an excellent writer who can keep me guessing.

1 Eighteen years have passed since one of the most tragic days in our country’s history. Eighteen years means that this year’s high school graduates were just babies or not even born yet on that day. They have never known anything other than a world where terrorism is something to constantly watch for. They have not known the joy of greeting a loved one just as they step off a plane. They have also not know a time where America did not have troops deployed to a war zone. Remembering Sept. 11, 2001: Fall and Rise by Mitchell Zuckoff ...This entry was posted in Reading and tagged history on September 11, 2019 by Sarah Anne Carter

I would recommend this to high school readers or older who want to have a good grasp on history. I know there is controversy surrounding Shapiro, but The Right Side of History is not about America’s left vs. right. This book is about history and how we got to where we are. It’s important to know your history as you move toward the future.
