Reviews and Muse: "The Athena Project"
http://reviewsandmuse.blogspot.com/2011/06/reviewing-athena-project.html
Reviews, Commentary, Book Discussions, and More. Wednesday, June 8, 2011. Title: The Athena Project. I'd never heard of Brad Thor until my friend suggested reading "The Athena Project". I checked it out of my local library and noticed right away the cover boasted "Number One Best Selling New York Author". New Yorkers are difficult- so if they liked this book, it must be action packed. Nina's Ranking: 3.5 out of 5. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Books I'm Currently Reading. Me, in a nutshell:.

Nina vs The World: 2014-06-15
http://ninavstheworld.blogspot.com/2014_06_15_archive.html
Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Tuesday, June 17, 2014. Every four years, the world stops for me. Well, in actuality, I just stop caring about the triviality of day to day even less than I usually do, and focus my attention and energy on the international, thrilling, unpredictable World Cup Games. This World Cup will definitely continue delivering more surprises, all the more reason to watch the games. And if you aren't a soccer fan, I promise you will catch a little World Cup ...

Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Monday, July 1, 2013. I'm just going to come out and say it. Nothing. Is more deflating than a failed expectation. You had high hopes for the calorie-to-taste ratio in that chocolate cake to be astronomically in your favor. You were hoping the mere inhalation of its perfect cubed crumbs would satiate your soul. And then. you took a big bite out of it and found out it was a dog treat brownie. Psychoanalysis has revealed the following concrete informat...

Reviews and Muse: Divergent
http://reviewsandmuse.blogspot.com/2014/07/divergent.html
Reviews, Commentary, Book Discussions, and More. Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Genre: Sci-Fi, Action, Young Adult, Dystopian Society. Oh- another Hunger Games. People living in a society that decides how they will live our their lives. A world surviving from a long ago. War Instead of districts- like HG- there are factions. But despite the similarities, Divergent stood on its own plot. Before you know it, betrayal, ugly competition and even death hang in the air and at every bend. Will I read the other two?

Nina vs The World: The Cost of Comfort
http://ninavstheworld.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-cost-of-comfort.html
Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. The Cost of Comfort. Did we lose the key to contentment along the way. There's no one answer to this question, I know. But the reason may lie in the fact that in one's desperate pursuit of luxury living, the basic needs of mankind that constitute the basis for happiness, are left wanting. Ironic, isn't it? You must carry everything on your shoulders. I have never seen a worse neck in all my years of massage therapy. That's n...

Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Thursday, October 24, 2013. Not Sunshine, but Not Rain. It's funny because my situation yesterday and my situation today are at face value, exactly the same. I haven't had some quintessential revelation or hit the lottery. (Not that I would ever want to deal with all that unasked for limelight) Yet today I have a better outlook. It's nice when someone who says that writing is their gift is indeed gifted at writing". So what I think I'm trying to get ...

Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Monday, December 30, 2013. 2013, 2014 and New Year's Resolutions. Well it's safe to say the year is practically over. Sure, we still have about 35 odd hours in which some global catastrophe can still happen, such as Miley Cyrus twerking up a storm for New Years. But for the most part, we've had more than a general idea of what the year was about. And may I say, I am Not Impressed. Insert Makayla Meme. How about learning to be at peace with oneself?

Nina vs The World. The Never-Ending Well of Knowledge. Tuesday, May 6, 2014. We recently watched this video at work. part of an all-encompassing positive change to the company. And it all boiled down to the philosophy that happiness is a choice, and one we must make every morning. I couldn't help but smirk when he went through all five. It sounded like he was narrating my life. All those habits were tactics I applied in some shape or form since I was a cognizant adult. Be grateful for three t...It's no w...
