Game Changer

Product Information

Hace tiempo que no leía nada de Neal Shusterman desde que leí Siega y El Abismo, y la verdad es que me apetecía leer algo nuevo del autor. Cuando vi que Nocturna publicaba su nuevo libro y que trataba de universos alternativos, un tema que me fascina, no me lo pensé dos veces. I felt like the author was really pushing to say something important, but he couldn’t quite clear his thoughts, so it all came out a bit incoherent. He tried to talk about some very serious issues that should hit close to home, but everything was exaggerated and therefore didn’t seem genuine. Damals dachte ich, weil ich eine diverse Gruppe von Freunden hatte, könnte ich mein Kästchen für soziale Verantwortung abhaken. Als ob es für mich nichts mehr zu tun gäbe, als ein bisschen Braun an meinem Tisch zu haben. „Hautfarbe sollte keine Rolle spielen“, hat man mich immer gelehrt – und ich habe es immer geglaubt. Aber es gibt einen großen unterschied zwischen dem, was sein sollte, und dem was ist. Und privilegiert zu sein heißt, diese Kluft nicht wahrzunehmen.“ (S.15) Award-winning author Neal Shusterman grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where he began writing at an early age. After spending his junior and senior years of high school at the American School of Mexico City, Neal went on to UC Irvine, where he made his mark on the UCI swim team, and wrote a successful humor column. Within a year of graduating, he had his first book deal, and was hired to write a movie script.

All of that said, this is still an important part of poly history and culture. Polyamory is not always easy or simple or beautiful or free of jealousy or bitterness for everyone. For a lot of people it will take them years to express their polyamory in healthy and fulfilling ways. This memoir is a wonderful reminder for me that these tragic and painful experiences do exist in the larger poly community. And if someone can read about it and have it be a game changer in their life then it's done it's job.

Just finished reading this recently released memoir of Shahid Afridi. I don't usually review books here but I have a lot to say about this one:

Falls ich überhaupt was kritisieren wollte, wäre es vielleicht die Flut an Themen der Ungerechtigkeit. Bis auf Religionsfreiheit wurde hier fast Alles angesprochen. Alles wichtig, keine Frage, aber evtl. wäre eine Konzentration auf 2 Themen intensiver und wirkungsvoller gewesen. Selten kann ich über einen Roman sagen, dass er mein Leben verändert hat. Eher bei Sachbüchern oder Ratgebern, die ja evtl. Wissen vermitteln, die mein Leben oder meine Gesundheit positiv beeinflussen. Bei Romanen habe ich das nur bei den Büchern von Julia Dippel erlebt. Da war es aber weniger der Inhalt, sondern mehr ihr unvergleichlicher Schreibstil, der mich für viele andere Bücher nachhaltig verdorben hat und mein Anspruchs-Level in unendliche Weiten hob.

Game Changer by Neal Shusterman – Book Details

The sad part, which he described in detail, was that he wasn't handled and groomed properly by the national team coaches. Every coach tried to coax him, to become a strategically defensive type player (except Bob Woolmer. RIP.), especially Javed Miandad. That was the biggest let down for him as he was a natural hard hitter. Ash is a football player. And by football player, I mean hand-egg player. He plays rugby. You get my point. Anytime he takes a hit on the field, his life changes. He moves into another dimension, or an alternative reality, where things are slightly different from his previous reality. a b Martin, Jonathan (January 9, 2010). "Book: Obama, Biden clashed in '08". Politico . Retrieved January 10, 2010. Thanks to NetGalley and Quill Tree Books for this arc, which I received in exchange for an honest review. I’ll post that full review upon publication. He is truly a great captain , because he admitted his mistakes whenever he had done it and tried to rectify it .

In the end, I prefer looking at the big picture and focusing more on the final message from Ash, that makes me fully appreciate this story. That we are all part of something “universally” bigger than what we can fully understand, there are bigger forces at play and beyond us. The best we can do is to live a humble life and be kind to each other. Es gibt Entscheidungen, die wir treffen, Entscheidungen, die für uns getroffen werden, und Dinge, die wir so lange ignorieren, bis es ohnehin keine Wahl mehr gibt.“ (S. 12)

What It Is About

I can't stand books set in American High School. However I can't blame this book for choosing that setting, I just don't like it in general. Heilemann and Halperin wrote in Game Change that Clinton had considered entering the 2004 presidential race, and that polls indicated her odds were encouraging. She was encouraged to run by her husband, former-President Bill Clinton, but their daughter Chelsea Clinton advised her against it. Clinton was also against running because when she was running for senator, she made the voters the promise that she would complete her full senate term. Also in 2006, according to Game Change, advisers to Clinton worked on a strategy to deal with any public disclosure over an affair which some of Hillary Clinton's advisers had believed Bill Clinton was then carrying on. The book did not provide any further details, except that the affair was "a sustained romantic relationship". [6] And that’s it. It’s about recognising that as white privileged people, we will never fully understand minorities’ perspective, but at least we shouldn’t live in ignorance and pretend racism, homophobia or even sexual violence don’t exist.
