My favorite book of 2025 was David Goggins' "Can't Hurt Me." Why I chose this as my favorite book was because it was not a fake story; he was real.

I am currently reading Can't Hurt Me by david Goggins. The question for today is to compare the book you are reading now to a book you have read before. Something similar is a Kobe Bryant book. They have a similar midset and both want the same thing. To be the best person they can be

I've just started this book, but I am going to write a Goodreads review of the KD book. I have finished the KD book. I am 100% done with the book.

Reading this made me think about how I need to train harder and give everything my all.

This is for ghost boys. Something that I could visualize is "My arms stretched out like I was Superman."(68) This author used feel because it felt like his arms were stretching out like he was Superman.

The character I feel I relate to the most is the main character, Kevin Durant. Why I feel like this is because we both love the game of basketball.

So that is why I feel like Kevin Durant and Durant relate.

I learned Jerome's identity is shaped by empathy, by feeling bad for his family, and that he died. He has seen his family struggle over his death, and it looks like his family is falling apart. He also feels awarked that only the daughter of the cop can see her.

I got stuck on page 20, but then I zoned out for a minute and then kept reading.
