What disappointed you about Power Play?
Am guessing that this author grew up wanting to write a cliche self help book
What was most disappointing about Yamini Naidu’s story?
Started off with a really interesting idea, then turned into really painful drivel.
The tempo of this book is so horrible. The person reading it doesn't come up for air.
It just wanders off into a hideous kind of mess. It's like somebody is just spewing cliche self helf mess.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Tortuous and inconguous voice. The author repeatedly referred to living in Australia, however the really hideous american accent of the authour was just too much.
You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?
None what so ever. Total drivel. Amongst the worst books ever. Please give me my money back.
Any additional comments?
This author is a misandrist

I knew very little about Jack Ma and Alibaba. It's truly amazing what he's built despite incredible odds.
Full of really interesting info, however I found it a little laborious to listen to.

Some people think Jay-Z is just another rapper. Others see him as just another celebrity/mega-star. The reality is, no matter what you think Jay-Z is, he is first and foremost a business. And as much as Martha Stewart or Oprah, he has turned himself into a lifestyle. This audiobook explains just how Jay-Z propelled himself from the bleak streets of Brooklyn to the heights of the business world.

A wryly funny and moving account of an extraordinary life lived almost entirely in the public eye.
Teen idol at 15, international icon and founder of the Brat Pack at 20, and one of Hollywood's top stars to this day, Rob Lowe chronicles his experiences as a painfully misunderstood child actor in Ohio uprooted to the wild counterculture of mid-1970s Malibu, where he embarked on his unrelenting pursuit of a career in Hollywood.

To be unprofessional is not to be disrespectful. It is not to be reckless or lazy. It is not to be unpunctual, badly presented or poorly spoken. To be unprofessional is to be real. It is to create a vision that is unborrowed from the past. It is to develop products that genuinely 'wow' your audience. It is to think of marketing strategies that the management consultants don't have diagrams or buzz words for yet.
