Review: Mars Now: Mars Journey: Book 4: A SciFi Thriller Series

Mars Now: Mars Journey: Book 4: A SciFi Thriller Series Mars Now: Mars Journey: Book 4: A SciFi Thriller Series by Bill Hargenrader
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Available at Amazon
I received a review copy of this book. What follows is an honest review.

This is the most recent of the Mars Now series of book. While each book stands alone and tells its own story, as a set they tell a much bigger story. Each book has a progression of its own story. When you go on to the next book, we often start back at the beginning again. It has been my one frustration with the series but I understand why it is being done.

This volume focuses more on The Mars Now competition. This competition is how the Mars Now organization is funding it's way on to the flight to Mars, and the ability to set people down on Mars itself. Our hero Bill has one way of thinking of how it is to be done, the producer of the reality TV show has another. Think of Survivor crossed with Big Brother and you get the idea.

It is an enjoyable read and I would say that it is safe for all readers to read.
I would recommend to all who enjoy a bit of Sci-Fi,

Review: Miracle Declutter: Tidying up to Improve and Organize Your Life

Miracle Declutter: Tidying up to Improve and Organize Your Life Miracle Declutter: Tidying up to Improve and Organize Your Life by Dave Bracco
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Available at Amazon
I was provided a copy of this book by the publisher for review purposes. What follows is a honest review.

Decluttering a home is more than just doing the physical tasks. If it was, then there would be no problem with doing it. Most of the reason that people clutter has to do with things that go back to childhood. This book attacks both parts of the cluttering puzzle. It works with the nuts and bolts of organization first. Later in the book it helps with understanding why you clutter and changing your mind set. The author also is not shy about saying that some cluttering may be cause by a medical disorder. For that professional help may be needed.

It is good that this book focuses on them both. Changing the area you live in without changing the mind is not going to help as old habits will return. Changing the other way will not work as you are not changing the world around you.

I would have no problem with suggesting this book to people who have a need to declutter they way that they live.
