Historia
Val Darrant was just four years old the snowy night his mother abandoned him. But instead of meeting a lonely death, he met Will Reilly - a gentleman, a gambler, and a worldly, self-taught scholar. For 10 years they each were all the family the other had, traveling from dusty American boomtowns to the glittering cities of Belle Époque Europe - until the day Reilly’s luck ran out in a roar of gunfire. But it wasn’t a gambling brawl or a pack of thieves that sealed Will’s fate. It was a far more complex story that Val would soon uncover.

Simply the best
Revisado: 07-24-24
I have always enjoyed Louis L’Amour audiobooks, and this one did not disappoint. The cherry on top was Beau Bridges as the narrator. If you want a good, clean western look no further than Louis L’Amour.

Historia
By day, 17-year-old Jo Kuan works as a lady's maid for the cruel daughter of one of the wealthiest men in Atlanta. But by night, Jo moonlights as the pseudonymous author of a newspaper advice column for the genteel Southern lady, "Dear Miss Sweetie". When her column becomes wildly popular, she uses the power of the pen to address some of society's ills, but she's not prepared for the backlash that follows when her column challenges fixed ideas about race and gender.

Wow, a surprising page turner
Revisado: 06-09-24
This book had been sitting in my library for quite some. I skipped over it multiple times when deciding what to listen to next because it is not my typical genre. On my recent vacation, I had to drive for six hours one way and I decided it was the one for the road trip and I am so glad I did. Let me just say that the authors vocabulary and play on words is remarkable. The story tugged at my heart while at times angering me but ultimately I just found myself rooting for the main character. I couldn’t stop listening because I was so wrapped up in it and ended up listing to the last 45 minutes at 1.5 the speed so I could finish it before arriving at my destination. The narrator was exceptional! I can see why this book made Reese’s book club.

Delightful!
Revisado: 05-21-24
This was a delightful and uplifting book about love, friendship and choosing happiness over success. The book was clean in the romance department and the negative drama was just enough to add to the story without changing the positive theme. It reiterated my want to move to the country!

Historia
Miss Marple encounters a compelling murder mystery in the sleepy little village of St. Mary Mead, where under the seemingly peaceful exterior of an English country village lurks intrigue, guilt, deception and death. Colonel Protheroe, local magistrate and overbearing land-owner is the most detested man in the village. Everyone—even in the vicar—wishes he were dead. And very soon he is—shot in the head in the vicar's own study. Faced with a surfeit of suspects, only the inscrutable Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues that will lead to the unmasking of the killer.

This was a wonderful audiobook of an Agatha Christie classic. Of course the story was mysterious and twisty right until the end but the narration was top notch.

Historia
Lila Bruce Breedlove never quite felt at home in Wesleyan, Georgia, especially after her father’s untimely demise when she was a child. Both Lila and her brother, Henry, fled north after high school, establishing fulfilling lives of their own. In contrast, their younger sister, Abigail, opted to remain behind to dote on their domineering, larger-than-life mother, Geneva. When their elderly mother dies suddenly and suspiciously in the muscadine arbor behind the family estate, Lila and Henry return to the town that essentially raised them.

The ending was worth the wait
Revisado: 02-19-24
The story started out slow - so slow that I stopped and started this book twice. Finally determined to get through it because I felt compelled to and grateful I did. First, the author is magnificent in describing the detail of every element in the story. Second the story was a bit mysterious and the ending ever so sweet. The story will remind you that no matter what, love prevails. Don’t be discouraged that it starts out slow, savor the attention to detail and let your imagination run.

Historia
Is this nosy trash panda a sleuth or a suspect? Lately my life has seemed pretty perfect-great house, great gig as my own boss, great new boyfriend, and the world's most awesome talking cat. Turns out I shouldn't have let my guard down. Even though my private investigation firm is brand new, I've already got some not-so-friendly competition, and it's coming from the sticky-fingered raccoon who lives under my front porch. I have no doubt he's robbing his clients since he's stealing from mine, too.

Klepto Racoon Hilarious

I loved the raccoon being a klepto, gave him some substance other than a love sick fan of Octo Cat. The twist at the end threw me so I am curious to see what the next installment will reveal.

Sweet Romance

This was a sweet read/listen. There was a lot of backstory and I think it helped to understand the characters. The narrator has a pleasant yet fun voice and I like the way the writer writes and am looking forward to the next book.

This book was so well written and the narration top notch. Everyone loves the Notebook and my favorite has always been Message in a Bottle until now. The Longest Ride just tugged at my heart and reminded me what life is really about. I really enjoyed this book.

I love these short and quirky mystery novels. I laugh the whole time - mostly at Octo Cat’s view of humans and his self righteousness. If you want a quick and funny read/listen the. Molly Fitz Pet Detective series is it.
