It was time for my next Audible, and I was looking at the new releases out there and I saw this new one by Jason Mott. Having read Mott, before I was intrigued and looked at the synopsis, this looked like something different.

People Like Us is a very current book. It really delves into many of the problems our society is facing at the moment. It is always interesting to get different perspectives on all the stuff going on right now.

I am not like the “Us” in the book; but then again, maybe I am. Despite all of our differences, we are all facing the same problems and challenges. There are times when society seems to be going to hell. Things are so out of control; it feels like no one can stop this crazy train from going off of the rails. The hate begets more hate; the fear leads to more violence. Do we protect ourselves or do we run away?

People Like Us is Jason Mott’s story. He says that it isn’t a memoir, but it feels like the story is very personal to him. He has created some fabulous characters to take us on this journey, and his writing is second to none.

I only wish there was more of a story to it.  I felt, I laughed, I connected with the book; I would have liked a tale. I think that an author can do two things at the same time, they can get a message out there and they can tell a great story that makes the reader feel and connect. I needed that story to bring this one up to the next level.
