San Francisco Book Review – 5 Stars!

san-francisco-book-review-logo

Thanks to San Francisco Book Review for rating The Investment Club five out of five stars! “Doug Cooper has created characters that readers can easily relate to, well-grounded, and oh so human. The chapters are short, and they are well-crafted to leave the reader wanting to learn what happens next to the characters. The tension builds as the reader begins to get interested in the group; the reader wants to know for how long the group can stick together before something rips it apart.”

San Francisco Book Review was launched in September 2009 originally as a bi-monthly printed magazine distributed in the SF Bay Area. Now, we focus only on the website, which provides nearly 300 book reviews a month, in addition to author-related articles, interviews, SF Bay Area book store events, and book store/library directories.

Our team reviews about 600 books each month in more than 30 categories, ranging from memoirs and biographies to science fiction and fantasy. SFBR also includes audio author interviews (Audible Authors), written interviews, a calendar of upcoming local SF author events, and whatever else catches our fancy.

 

Just Keep Believing

Just Keep Believing In times of uncertainty and confusion, frustration usually creeps in. We’re not sure what we should do. We just know we need to do something; take some kind of action. Our first instinct is often to leave, to push away from the negative feelings. But it’s in these moments that we need to resist the urge for flight and to overanalyze and just lean into the chaos, letting the disquiet inside us settle. We can do this by tapping into our faith and believing in ourselves and trusting that life will offer the people and experiences we are meant to have.

What Each Choice Uncovers

What Each Choice Uncovers

We are encouraged to be strategic, have vision, and make decisions for the long term. But the truth is we see only what each choice uncovers. We can look ahead and map out a plan, predicting what will happen, and how we will respond. But the instant we make a decision and act, a new reality is born, and the world we knew only seconds ago has faded. There are no guarantees or absolutes. All we can do is have faith in ourselves and the choices we make, and know, life will offer us the experiences we are meant to have.

A Day Without Regrets

A Day Without Regrets

Guilt is wasted emotion. It’s understandable to feel bad when unfortunate situations unfold or when our actions unintentionally hurt another. But when those pangs of remorse well up inside us, and we start wishing we had never made the choices we did, we must remind ourselves that we did so in full control of our faculties. That doesn’t mean we’re justifying our decisions as correct. It’s merely saying we’re taking responsibility and recognizing our current reality is the one we’re meant to be living. Taking chances, trusting our instincts, following our passion creates the world we really want, and deserve.
