How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsBest Advice Given
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2023
Several comments were how this book was poorly written, jumped around or more about Admiral McRaven's experiences. I found the book to be an excellent tool. I could have read it in one day but took three days to stop and make notes of his pearls of wisdom. I typed out 11 positives I got and not using his Table of Contents. Many positive feedbacks. I've printed out several copies and have mailed to family and friends, including my nephew, a Lt Col. I keep a copy by my chair and view it as one of my first accomplishments of the day. And BTW, Admiral McRaven's stories are very interesting.

I purchased the product for a team building exercise because my department is FT remote and we collectively agreed it was a great idea to create more events/activities that will bring us together as a group.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great read — a bit overrated.
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2023

I enjoyed reading this book. It is a very quick and easy read. I had heard a lot about it and I think my expectations were a bit too high. It is written in a very simple and straightforward way which is great for getting the message across to the masses, but there were times I felt that the writing was a bit pedestrian and I found myself skimming some pages. Overall, great book and would recommend it for anyone looking for a little bit of motivation.

Excellent book (as are his others) with applicable life truths. Provided this book to my son in Army Basic Combat training since they were only allowed to read military books. He loved it and we had great conversations over each truth in the book.
