A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year A Best Book of the Summer: Los Angeles Times and Publishers Weekly An Amazon Best Book of the Month (Mystery, Thriller & Suspense) Three years have passed since Gustavo, a renowned psycholinguist, last spoke to his closest friend, Daniel, who has been interned in a psychiatric ward for murdering his fianc e. When Daniel unexpectedly calls to confess the truth behind the crime, Gustavo's long buried fraternal loyalty resurfaces and draws him into the center of a quixotic investigation. While Daniel reveals his unsettling story using fragments of fables, novels, and historical allusions, Gustavo begins to retrace the past for clues: from their early college days exploring dust-filled libraries and exotic brothels to Daniel's intimate attachment to his sickly younger sister and his dealings as a book collector. As the circumstances grow increasingly intricate, Gustavo is forced to deduce an sinister series of events from allegories that are more real than police reports and metaphors more revealing than evidence. With sumptuous prose and haunting imagery, Faver n Patriau has crafted an unforgettable, labyrinthine tale of murder, madness, and passion that is as entertaining as it is erudite and dark as it is illuminating.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect book for realestate beginners
Format: Kindle
This 2-in-1 boxset is an absolute must-have for anyone looking to break into real estate investing, regardless of experience or financial situation. The first book is a step-by-step guide that breaks down the intimidating world of real estate into 7 simple steps, perfect for beginners. The author does an incredible job of making complex topics like deal analysis, financing, and negotiation feel approachable and doable. I especially appreciated the practical advice on how to finance your first deal even if you're starting with little money or poor credit.
The second book dives deep into rental property investing, offering a wealth of knowledge on both long-term and short-term rental strategies. Whether you're aiming for mid-term rentals or vacation properties, this guide equips you with the tools to confidently manage your investments. The inclusion of expert tips on property management, deal analysis, and exit strategies is invaluable for anyone looking to scale their real estate portfolio.
The extra bonuses, including guides on tax planning, apartment investing, and property checklists, are just the cherry on top. Whether you're a complete beginner or someone looking to expand their real estate empire, this boxset provides everything you need to succeed. Highly recommended for anyone ready to dive into real estate and start building wealth!

Extremely thorough yet easily readable...
Format: Kindle
Describing this book as thorough is an understatement. The title starts off with a bold claim, one that might seem skeptical, but the authors actually delivered. I'm beyond impressed, to say the least.
I've had my nose in this book off and on all day and yet I'm still only exactly 33% through it. I'm not even sure I can say I'm reading this book. It's more like I'm studying it.
Chapter 6 in particular rang a bell. "Buy on the fringe and wait. Buy land near a growing city!" This reminds me of an approach I know and love which is self-titled "the borderlands strategy." Hello places like Frisco, TX / Dallas suburbs.
This book is a masterclass in professional, knowledgeable people offering an extremely high-quality product at a great price. There are even enticing offers at the end of each chapter, which is something marketers (and real estate individuals) can really take note of. (Lead gen.)
So many good things to say. Probably the most concise way of doing so is by saying it really is a real estate bible, yet is still easy to read. No complex terms or challenging math. No walls of text. (Examples that do include math are straightforward and easy to follow.)
Great buy that has been extremely enjoyable and thought provoking. Can see myself referring back to this constantly for years and years.

Solid breakdown of real estate investing for beginners
Format: Kindle
Aye, this book actually surprised me. It’s super beginner-friendly and doesn’t just throw a bunch of complicated real estate jargon at you. I think in Chapter 5, they covered creative financing options, which I found pretty dope. There’s a part where they explain “subject-to financing” basically, how you can take over a mortgage without making a new one, which could mean little to no down payment. Didn’t even know that was a thing.
The book also lays out step-by-step strategies for getting started, from choosing a strategy to closing deals. Some parts felt a little surface-level, and I kinda wish they went deeper into financing for people with bad credit, but overall, it’s solid.
If you’re new to real estate and want a simple, no-BS breakdown, this one’s worth checking out.
