The Pursuit of Happyness is the powerfully inspiring story of Chris Gardner, a homeless father turned millionaire who refused to let his dire circumstances define him. Never giving in to despair, Gardner made an astonishing transformation from being part of San Francisco's invisible poor to being a powerful player in its financial district.

Motivated by a promise he made to himself as a fatherless child to never abandon his own children, Gardner found himself homeless, working an incredibly demanding entry-level job in finance, and raising his toddler son alone. Mythic, triumphant, and unstintingly honest, The Pursuit of Happyness tells the story of how one man and his son navigated the mean streets of San Francisco and went on to become a crowned prince of Wall Street

"In this stirring autobiography. . . Gardner recounts his 'long walk to Wall Street, ' a journey that took him from a childhood in the ghettos of Milwaukee to an enormously successful career as a stockbroker in New York City."-Library Journal

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2. Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.

delightful read
Format: Kindle
What a delightful read. The characters are awesome, the plot was so good, I loved it. I was intrigued and it kept me wanting more. Told in multiple pov, the book sucks you in and doesn’t let go. I cannot wait to read the next book.

not bad
Format: Kindle
I loved the plot of this book. The characters just didn’t have a lot of depth. The connections and “love” just weren’t communicated very well in the writing. The author didn’t write the sweet psycho trope very well at all either. Lachlan was just a mess of a character.
