Very well written documentary and memoir by the former Mayor, Rahm Emanuel. In his book, the author remembers and lovingly and with pride tells the story (and history) of his own family coming to the US during first "wave" of Russian Jews from Soviet Union to escape pogroms and later, the Total obliteration during the WWII... The book is very interesting, informative and "alive". I highly recommend it to anyone.... The only miss I found, was the absence of any photography of either his family or the city's... then in 70s and now, in the XXI Century.

Total nonsense and non-existing "theft". Waste of time and effort, for the reader.

Pure nightmare fuel which might actually happen. NASA could find a grapefruit in orbit before we could find a nuclear attack sub on our shoreline. I wish I could give it more than five stars. The rest of her books are mediocre.

Fantastic book which is pure nightmare fuel. Apres moi, le deluge. We would be screwed. Russia is unconquerable as long as it has nuclear attack subs. They don’t need a dead hand. 2010 Pulitzer Prize.

Unique plot and characters. Very creative

Best Joe Hill book by far and (being a masochist) I have read a lot of them. Very creative. Regarding his other books, I would not spit in their ear if their brain was on fire but this one is really good.

Unreliable narrator keeps you guessing. Well worth it.

Is her sister possessed or schizophrenic? You have to read it to find out for sure.

I normally stay away from 900 page books but liked a Boy’s Life so took a chance. The story develops and adds new subplots that add to the richness. Hard to believe he just makes it up as he goes along like Stephen Kjng. I read 10-15 hours per week and this is one of the very best so far this year.

A man’s story about a chapter of his life that he lived on traveling circus train. I thoroughly enjoyed it, cried a few times, however I don’t consider this a sad story, just life.
