If you like your self-help and personal development delivered through fictional storytelling, you might want to read The 5AM Club by Robin S. Sharma.
Touted as "part manifesto for mastery, part playbook for genius-grade productivity and part companion for a life lived beautifully," this book is meant to empower you to embrace early-rising habits to change your life.
I tried to like this book, but it just isn't for me. What I thought was a nonfiction title outlining a practice to owning your morning, turned out to be a fictional story of annoying characters who meet an eccentric tycoon who becomes their mentor explaining the concept.The narrator was great, capturing the characters' unique personalities, but after six chapters I couldn't even think how I would complete this 11hr audio book.
I've seen this style of book done before, and it can be done well. This story just wasn't for me despite my belief that owning your morning makes a huge difference in your performance and productivity.

Thanks for your honest thoughts. From the title I would have thought it was nonfiction too.
That's why I felt a bit misled, Martha. But if the storytelling were good, I don't know that I would have cared.
