Practical, logical, and comprehensive guide to starting and running an Airbnb
Format: Kindle
This is a great resource for anyone who wants to own and operate an Airbnb (short-term rental housing). The book is comprehensive. It starts with the basics and goes on and on, covering every conceivable issue, from startup basics to day-to-day operations, legal issues that might come up, how to hire a cleaning crew—even real estate issues many people might not be aware of. The only thing I found missing was instructions for how to deal with bedbugs, which are a growing problem throughout the world (and can wreak havoc on any rental property).
The book is well-organized, which makes it easy to read… perfect for anyone trying to learn the business from the ground up. It is well-researched, with many examples to show the reader how things work in the real world. There are a number of resources mentioned also: websites for additional information on how to compare rates, and so on.
The author is practical and pragmatic. He balances caution with enthusiasm (and vice versa). I recommend it to anyone who wants to gain additional income through Airbnb.

Amazing, different, success.
Format: Kindle
First let me say that this book (series) was not something I normally read. I prefer LGBT books written by women, but I also had no idea what a LitRPG was.
I started the book cautiously, I found myself a little disappointed that it was under LGBT but the main character was into her co-worker. The co-worker was a dude. But I kept reading and I was surprised by how I got into the fact that it was sending her into a realm where she was basically a character in a video game. Completing tasks to earn points, leveling up, gaining stats.
Now I’ll be honest, some of the information in this book (and the rest of the series) flew straight over my head. The author is definitely far more intelligent than I, and probably most average people lol.
Finally, the characters are actually well developed and have their own unique personalities. With Emma’s leadership qualities she helps her group of new friends survive and turn into badasses. In the following books you can see how they each change and take on different roles over the course of their trials.
This first book was great, it got me hooked. But it gets even better as time goes on! I have read this series so many times that I basically know it by heart. It’s that good.
I recommend you read this, and the 5 other novels in the series. Also, check out the authors website and Patreon for sure. He’s currently working on a new series and posts chapter updates in Patreon posts.
PS. I only leave reviews on books that wow me. :)
