Nothing groundbreaking to me... If you think you are working for the money, or if you are saving now to have fun in retirement, you probably need to hear this book.
I took away that my priorities are wrong - not by a lot, but by enough. And I realized that my savings strategy was tuned for when I was 15 years younger, and my situation has changed, so it's time to update it.

If you like this you'll love the original, American Gods.
This was entertaining and silly.

Took me a while because I listened in Audible and just didn't always remember to listen when appropriate (I listen when working out, mowing, etc.). I found this book very interesting and found a timely (for me) quote I'll share.

I was disappointed by this, a little. I'm a huge Stephenson fan, and loved many ideas in this... But quite a bit seemed like it was too grounded in the short term things happening in the US (and the world) today, or felt poorly executed.

Second time I've read Neuromancer. This time I read it for a book club at work. This time I actually listened to it - which is definitely more difficult than reading, with this book. I recall that when reading I had a better sense of scene and time jumps than I got with listening, and there are some important ones.
Either way, I'd still recommend this book. I had forgotten just how "R" rated this book can be, if I remembered I might have warned some of the folks at work before beginning it...
