Phoebe always was a girl who loved her books, and she found a husband who also loved his books, but a different kind of books.

Phoebe loved her school books, Jake loved his books about money growing.

It‘s a good one - I hope you have read it or plan to read it.

ImperfectCJ I like the haiku; I do not like the news. Just as I start to get hopeful that integrity in Congress might be making a comeback, they throw another shovelful on top of it. 4mo
Susanita @ImperfectCJ That‘s it exactly. 4mo

ncsufoxes It‘s f-n exhausting. I was thinking too that the House Democrats are down by 3 people due to recent deaths. 4mo

Promises made, promises kept! 🤢 I wonder how a Trump voter will feel when these cuts come for them. Because unless you're in the 1%, you're screwed. These cuts will come for ALL of us, red or blue. Deal with THAT, MAGA people. #ranttime 4mo
dabbe And thank you for this WH😩AH haiku and for keepin' it real. 💙✊🏻💙 4mo
AmyG Cruelty IS the point. Stephen Miller feeds off of it. This bill is a horror. 4mo
AlaMich @dabbe Yes, but it all depends on who they blame for the misery coming their way. I‘m betting it will end up being Biden‘s fault that they have no health care and can‘t feed their kids. 4mo

Amiable @AlaMich Yes. Exactly. Everything that ever goes wrong in their lives is somehow Biden‘s fault. Or Obama‘s. 🙄 4mo

1. There have been some interesting answers to this question. For my part, I think it‘s possible for a book to define a generation, a Strong Sense of Time, if you will, but keeping in mind that no decade or generation is any one thing. That being said…
2. With the caveat that I haven‘t read it * I suggest the tagged book for the 1980s. The rise of investment bankers and various derivatives, etc. etc.

Susanita I read the first several chapters in serial form in Ladies Home Journal and was intrigued, but I never got around to reading the book (or seeing the movie) at the time. I do have the brick of a paperback on my TBR shelf for reading “some day.” 5mo

PROMPT: DAZZLING

Phoebe always was a girl who loved her books, and she found a husband who also loved his books, but a different kind. Phoebe loved her school books, Jake loved his books about money growing.

Pulls the reader into the high stakes of Wall Street, the power and lives of the wealthy, and reminds us of the saying:   “Money is the root of all evil. “

I feel that this is a very “noisy” book, very much a product of the 1980s (certainly in the era before the stock market crash of October 1987). But covering, as it does, manipulation of the media, corruption, and people from all sectors using an accident to further their own careers/funds, it has as much relevance today, as it did when it was first published in 1987. It‘s sad how little some things have chan

Chairman | Stephen Frey

Read this book many years ago and just found out that Frey wrote another three in the series. Later this year I will read this one again so that I can go on with the series. If you want something relatively easy to read, with lots of intrigue and suspense especially for the summer, I think that this will be entertaining.

Ok I‘d give it a pick because the writing was great but I don‘t recommend it to my bestie and I wouldn‘t read it again. However, it did surprise me. I picked it up after I heard someone quote it. Even though it‘s from when I was born, it‘s still relevant and fascinating.

pdxannie Also this filter is bad ass. 1y
