#1 New York Times bestseller

From the author of Steve Jobs and other bestselling biographies, this is the astonishingly intimate story of the most fascinating and controversial innovator of our era—a rule-breaking visionary who helped to lead the world into the era of electric vehicles, private space exploration, and artificial intelligence. Oh, and took over Twitter.

When Elon Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

His father’s impact on his psyche would linger. He developed into a tough yet vulnerable man-child, prone to abrupt Jekyll-and-Hyde mood swings, with an exceedingly high tolerance for risk, a craving for drama, an epic sense of mission, and a maniacal intensity that was callous and at times destructive.

At the beginning of 2022—after a year marked by SpaceX launching thirty-one rockets into orbit, Tesla selling a million cars, and him becoming the richest man on earth—Musk spoke ruefully about his compulsion to stir up dramas. “I need to shift my mindset away from being in crisis mode, which it has been for about fourteen years now, or arguably most of my life,” he said.

It was a wistful comment, not a New Year’s resolution. Even as he said it, he was secretly buying up shares of Twitter, the world’s ultimate playground. Over the years, whenever he was in a dark place, his mind went back to being bullied on the playground. Now he had the chance to own the playground.

For two years, Isaacson shadowed Musk, attended his meetings, walked his factories with him, and spent hours interviewing him, his family, friends, coworkers, and adversaries. The result is the revealing inside story, filled with amazing tales of triumphs and turmoil, that addresses the question: are the demons that drive Musk also what it takes to drive innovation and progress?

Clarify Submission
Format: Kindle
The only thing I wish Elisabeth had covered is the concept of submission must be “as unto the Lord”which means not for the woman to submit to sin but to submit to her husband as she would Christ. Wives can submit as long as the husband is obedient to Christ in not compelling a woman to do something outside of the will of God. If the man is in submission to Christ then so is the wife. That is why it is so important for the woman to pray for her husband at all times.

Amazing book about marriage
Format: Kindle
Excellent read and one every woman should read, especially if she is engaged, newly married, or her daughter is. It contains lots of marriage wisdom and encouragement from a Christian perspective that is missing in today's culture.

A Wonderful Breakdown
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I would like to mention that this is a great book, written by a greatly honored woman. Actually, my most honored author that will, more than likely, ever exist. I think it is alright for men to read this book, to better understand a small part of God's design of their wives or future wives, WHOM, also desires God's design for man and woman. If she does not, things can go bad, for the simple reason of wanting God's design. Also, to know their daughters. On a side note: there are three books (two my Elisabeth) that I think are great on the topic of God's design for the genders that should be read, but not leaned on. God should be the One we put our validation in, not a person or book. Personally, I think that this book should be read only with God, so He can hear all questions and smooth out what is not agreed with, and so it does not create any issues or expectations, and reading it should not be "known" by the spouse for the simple reason that I think it is important that spouses and future ones do not think the other is just listening to a book. Anyways, this is one amazing book pointing to God's design of woman.

Perfect engagement gift or for any woman
Format: Mass Market Paperback
This book is in my top five for women. A quick read, but so profound. This edition has very small print, my one caveat is for it to be printed in a hardback with a larger font so women over 40 can enjoy it without reading glasses. Still, absolutely amazing and such a timely word for today's confused culture.

Beautiful, well-written advent companion book!
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I have been wanting to purchase this book as a companion to our yearly advent time, and am so glad I took the plunge this year. The beautiful stories, illustrations, delicious recipes and fun activities will be such a delightful enhancement to our readings this year, and I am hoping we can start a bit early so we have time to really savor the beauty of advent in what always turns out to be a busy season. Truly a gorgeous book that was put together with great thoughtfulness, love, and a heart for the true focus of Christmas.
