Focus Review
Unconventional: A Memoir of Entrepreneurism, Politics, and Pot
by Jamie Andrea Garzot
Girl Friday Books 
 
"I saw the potential to create a store that was different, that did not have the ‘stoner’ customer at its center but instead embraced all customers."

Scores of inspirational, entrepreneurial memoirs are appealing, but few are quite so riveting as this title. With humor and the same point-by-point fastidiousness displayed in developing her pioneering cannabis dispensaries, Garzot outlines her entry and ascendency into an industry in which she originally had no interest. Never a consumer of cannabis, Garzot's life took an unexpected turn when she sought relief for insomnia and discovered that a single cannabis edible brought her a full night's rest. From there, she became a pioneer in the virtually unregulated California market that, even after many years of regulation, still has many peculiarities. Dispensaries still engage in cash-only transactions because most banks don't allow accounts for dispensaries, a situation created by the federal status of "pot."    .... (read more)

The US Review news was brought to you by...
ACE Your Life by Michelle P. Maidenberg, Ph.D., MPH, LCSW-R

"Maidenberg revelatory guide for transforming your life offers an alternative to the social pressure and current trends that emphasize happiness and gratitude as ideal states ...helping one move forward with confidence and purpose through obstacles and challenges."
 – RECOMMENDED, The US Review of Books
King Solomon's Empire by Archie W. N. Roy PhD and Margaret P. Roy

"Exciting, educational, this is not only a history text, but a guide for achievable Christian living. Well-researched, informative, it provides a deeper  understanding of both an empire that shaped the Middle East, and of King Solomon, who was responsible for the empire’s rise and dissolution." 
 – RECOMMENDED, The US Review of Books
Einstein: The Man and His Mind by Gary S. Berger, MD and Michael DiRuggiero
 
"This breathtaking book, full of his portraits, handwritten letters, and scientific papers, is like viewing [Einstein's] personal scrapbook.  ...revealing his relentless drive for peace and sense of humor but never neglect his superhuman intelligence.  ... The book is beautiful, whimsical, and thought-provoking all at once." 
 – RECOMMENDED, The US Review of Books
Clouds Over Mountains by Matt Joseph
 
“Joseph's novel is a rich and complicated story spanning decades and cultures. … featuring characters of color and strong female protagonists, both Japanese and American, in roles that move beyond the hardboiled white males typically portrayed in political and military thrillers.”
 – RECOMMENDED, The US Review of Books
Footsteps in the Dark by Carlo Armenise
 
"Each story strikes a moral chord. Evildoers meet with horror or harsh punishments. Good people eventually gain rewards, and those who have suffered loss find their vengeance. ...much more satisfying than the real world, with its murkier resolutions and lack of closure. Diverting and fast-paced, this collection hits the mark in all the right ways."
