Ordered it. Never received the item. The seller was great communicating and a refund was made. Ended up purchasing the book from a local store and its a pretty good book! . The fact that it was lost by the carrier is not the sellers fault dont let it discourage you from getting the book. It was a very good read at the end. ❤️ Buy it!!
You simply have to love when someone is so smart they can make complex concepts simple and easy to understand. This man specializes in that!
I enjoyed reading this book. I like how Neil takes the time to respond to his letter and how genuine he is. Worth the read.
Got this for my husband. He likes the book.
Everything arrived in perfect shape!
