Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

Before the Singularity: The Architecture of Human Programming and the AI-Driven Future

Before the Singularity: The Architecture of Human Programming and the AI-Driven Future, Ali Peivandizadeh, 2025

Here is a group of observations about the patterns that design your life, and write your thoughts ahead of time.

"Control the narrative, manage key nodes and let the system produce the desired outcome." "Language isn't how you communicate. It's what you're allowed to think." "Look at how chaos is created, responses are directed and planned solutions are dictated." "The best propaganda is invisible."

The first step to changing "the system" is understanding its size and dimensions. If you feel that something is "wrong" with your daily life, read this book. It is less than 100 pages long, and it has a lot to say about the present day. It is a real eye-opener (and rather depressing).
