Atomic Habits by James Clear: A Review

Continuing good habits and eliminating bad ones are the most challenging parts as a human being. I started listening to Amazon audible two months ago. It was convenient seeing my iPad or iPhone with the app early in the morning or before bedtime and the idea of thinking that it's there available all the time. 

Then, I started picking it up and started listening in the morning while I sip my coffee and before bedtime while I'm lying in bed ready to sleep. Not until I read about the habit loop which is clearly explained in this book that I realized what I am doing is developing a good habit.

For me, the CCRR or Cue, Crave, Response, Reward was the highlight of this book and this is just my own-reader-opinion. I was amazed by how my simple act of becoming a member at Audible made me a habitual audiobook listener. 

This book taught me a lot of things which is a far cry from what I expected from the beginning. I thought this book is just the same with other self-help, self-improvement books out there but turned out it's not. This is a life-changing piece of material and when I say life-changing, it is literally really life-changing. 

I'm on my second round of listening to this book again and I recommend that you join in with me. 

The narration on Audible: 5/5 (Recommended)

Happy listening!

Exhilarating, Amazing, Thrilling!

All I have now are praises about this book, it was my adrenaline that pushed me everyday to finish this  book in Amazon Audible. It's truly amazing how the story progressed and how it unfolded. The narration was perfect and I even experienced palpitations because of its brilliant and thrilling plot. 

Anna Fox is truly a masterpiece in this book. It's my first time hearing about someone who has extreme agoraphobia. 

A child psychologist, who suffered a breakdown but now inadequate to leave the four corners of her house. The internet becomes her fortress. Leading a very sad and narrow life, we completely understand Anna’s feelings of helplessness and self-loathing.

One of the highlights of the drama is the perfect pace and the believability of the plot. Slowly we understand Anna and her tortured psyche. It is all very convincing and plausible. I absolutely adored links to the brilliant Alfred Hitchcock.

The author expertly gives us an updated version of Rear Window, the 1954 Hitchcock classic. He quotes from various old movies, as the story progresses. Wonderful. I fully appreciated that. He has done a very fine job.

I would recommend this audible version to everyone! Ann Marie Lee also gives justice in narrating this book. She has a very strong understanding of Anna's feelings and struggles. I enjoyed every inch of this audible book. Way to go audible!
