Title: The Story of Amazon.com

Author: Sara Gilbert

“We see our customers as invited guests to a party and we are                                                the hosts.”

This is the statement of the owner of a recently growing company which all of us are very much aware of. To his intro, recently he is the wealthiest person in the world and this info is enough to know recognize the person. Yes, the entrepreneur I am talking about is JEFF BEZOS.

 I was very excited to know him which brought me to this book.

The book is small but sweet type. Nor too lengthy neither too short. The thing which captured my attention was the writing style of the author in a simple manner and of course the images of Jeff Bezos and some unknown facts about the vast spreading company cannot be neglected.

The book put forth a character, who has left his job and is now striving hard to create his own unique identity in the market. We can completely imagine ourselves in the offices of Amazon as we reveal the book further. Like other the company too started with huge losses for first 4years. Then taking in consideration the needs of customer and as they gone improving their service we are very well known of the unprecedented success achieved by the company.

The book reminds us of the Dot com burst of that time and how successfully Amazon was able to survive in those difficult situation. The book teaches us a lot about his own biography as well as motivates us to come our daily obstacles we face. The author  has beautifully put down the struggling life of the Prodigy of the decade and his success story from a startup started in Garage (first as online book store) to now it is the #1 online shopping site. A  must read book for the book lovers.

What have I learnt: Not to lose hope in the worst situations of your life. Seeing every problem as a opportunity to grow bigger than earlier
