Review of 'Quicksilver' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
This was not a casual read, to say the least. There were just so many characters! I started out trying to listen to the audiobook while driving, but no way that was going to work out. I got through it going back and forth between the ebook and audiobook.

Review of 'Steve Jobs' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Not knowing Steve Jobs personally, I can hardly comment on how true to life the biography painted him. That said, I enjoyed the book. It uncovered a bunch of things I didn't know about that man and framed it all well. I would recommend this book.
