Brainstorm: The Teenage Brain from the Inside Out by Daniel J. Siegel
3.75
The number of words in this book outstripped my interest in the topic of this book.
Reversing Alzheimer's: The New Toolkit to Improve Cognition and Protect Brain Health by Heather Sandison
4.0
This is based on Dale Bredesen's research but Dr. Sandison has broken his really complicated system into a relatively simple plan people can actually implement.
A Frog in the Fjord: One Year in Norway by Lorelou Desjardins
4.0
A very charming book, and interesting insights into both French and Norwegian cultures.
Everything Happens for a Reason: And Other Lies I've Loved by Kate Bowler
5.0
You could give this book to any person in the middle of any bad event and it would be just right.
The End of Alzheimer's Program: The First Protocol to Enhance Cognition and Reverse Decline at Any Age by Dale Bredesen
2.0
I thought this was going to be step by step the program to follow from the info in his first book, but it's really just the scientific studies behind the program. Totally unusable for the average person and not even remotely parsable for anyone in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's.
The End of Alzheimer's: The First Program to Prevent and Reverse Cognitive Decline by Dale Bredesen
4.0
Some of the research is already outdated in this book from 8 years ago but for the most part this is really solid.
Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer by Dylan Mulvaney
4.0
What a strange world to come out as a woman into. The obsessive makeup/hair/clothes obsession, all the money and excess, and the internet fame just seems like an uncanny valley. How does she figure out who she is and who she wants to be in the middle of all that artifice? This memoir is written well and I'm cheering for Dylan but somehow I'm left feeling that everything would be easier for her in a setting that was less about visual artifice.
