Are you are reader? I am not but I certainly love to feed myself with valuable and great information. Audiobooks are my thing but THIS.....my friend @Tina Christiano showed me this resource and it is simply amazing. This is an app that summarizes a book in 15-30 minutes. The big nuggets of truth that I really listed to audio books to get! THIS WAS A GAME CHANGER FOR ME! Enjoy 🙂 Anyone here enjoy a lot of valuable information? Are you already using Blinkist? Thanks, Tina!!
