Historia
“Long live the King” hailed Entertainment Weekly upon publication of Stephen King’s On Writing. Part memoir, part master class by one of the bestselling authors of all time, this superb volume is a revealing and practical view of the writer’s craft, comprising the basic tools of the trade every writer must have. King’s advice is grounded in his vivid memories from childhood through his emergence as a writer, from his struggling early career to his widely reported, near-fatal accident in 1999—and how the inextricable link between writing and living spurred his recovery.

Historia
Barry Laverty, M.B., can barely find the village of Ballybucklebo on a map when he first sets out to seek gainful employment there, but already he knows that there is nowhere he would rather live than in the emerald hills and dales of Northern Ireland. The proud owner of a spanking-new medical degree and little else in the way of worldly possessions, Barry jumps at the chance to secure a position as an assistant in a small rural practice. At least until he meets Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly.

Although this book outlines my life story surrounding alcohol, and ultimately ending my relationship with it, it also serves as an advisory note to those in similar situations and their loved ones, along with a dash of comedic relief. Even if alcohol or addiction doesn't directly affect you, this book is sure to entertain!

Colonel Chris Hadfield has spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4000 hours in space. During this time he has broken into a Space Station with a Swiss army knife, disposed of a live snake while piloting a plane, and been temporarily blinded while clinging to the exterior of an orbiting spacecraft. The secret to Col. Hadfield's success - and survival - is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst and enjoy every moment of it.

Take one look at Kevin Smith: He's a balding fatty who wears a size XXL hockey jersey, shorts, and slippers year-round. Not a likely source for life advice. But take a second look at Kevin Smith: He changed filmmaking forever when he was twenty-four with the release of Clerks, and since then has gone on to make nine more profitable movies, runs his own production company, wrote a best-selling graphic novel, and has a beautiful wife and kids. So he must be doing something right.

What can you get with 25 dollars and a dream? Adam Shepard graduated from college feeling disillusioned by the apathy around him and was then incensed after reading Barbara Ehrenreich's famous work Nickel and Dimed- a book that gave him a feeling of hopelessness about the working class in America. He set out to disprove Ehrenreich's theory-the notion that those who start at the bottom stay at the bottom-by making something out of nothing to achieve the American Dream.

Miami's vice cops, move over. There's a new sheriff in town, rather a feisty Florida Highway Patrol Trooper named Floy Turner, who juggles motherhood with fighting crime. With refreshing authenticity and transparency, Turner doesn't hold back as she tells her stranger-than-fiction, true-to-life anecdotes of what goes on behind the badge in drug-ridden 1980s Miami when cocaine was king and her town housed one of the major drug hubs in the country.

An interesting listen!
Note: I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.
I was interested in this audiobook because my husband is from Mexico and it's possible that we'll end up moving down there in the future. This audiobook is more like a collection of podcast posts than an actual 'professional' sounding audiobook, but that didn't bother me too much (like it would if this had been a work of fiction) - and I actually got a kick out of hearing Bill the Geek break out into chuckles at various points throughout. I liked the informal tone and felt it was organized pretty well with a lot of useful information. I may listen to it again and take notes the next time so I can do further research.
Recommended to anyone thinking about moving south of the border.

BUYER BEWARE. This has some good advice but...
This has some good advice. 10% of information is useable but everything else is Polly Anna, Blue Sky, etc, scenario. On one hand I applaud his positive description of Mexico, and he is correct that there are many good places for North Americans to live. On the other hand there are many ways for a dream to become a nightmare. DO YOUR RESEARCH. PLAN FOR THE WORST.

Entertaining
This appears to be a collection of podcasts.. It is obvious that the author enjoys his life and gives a very good account of what living in Mexico is really like for an expat who chooses to enjoy his surroundings, but if you are looking for a lot of information on exactly what to do to accomplish the transition, you will only find glimpses in Bill's entertaining stories.

It's $5, it's worth $3.
A few solid points that will help in the future, but, overall, many things missed or not quite correct. I'm a casual tourist in Mexico every few years. It's almost painful he's admittedly lived in Mexico for 10 years.
Thank you Bill the Geek, you've inspired me to pursue creating my own content in Playa del Carmen.
