“Homecoming” takes us back to Ford County, the fictional setting of many of John Grisham’s unforgettable stories. Jake Brigance is back, but he’s not in the courtroom. He’s called upon to help an old friend, Mack Stafford, a former lawyer in Clanton, who three years earlier became a local legend when he stole money from his clients, divorced his wife, filed for bankruptcy, and left his family in the middle of the night, never to be heard from again—until now. Now Mack is back, and he’s leaning on his old pals, Jake and Harry Rex, to help him return. His homecoming does not go as planned.

Sweetbitter meets The Nightingale in this pause-resisting novel about a woman who returns to her family’s ancestral vineyard in Burgundy and unexpectedly uncovers a lost diary, an unknown relative, and a secret her family has been keeping since World War II. To become one of only a few hundred certified wine experts in the world, Kate must pass the notoriously difficult Master of Wine examination. She’s failed twice before; her third attempt will be her last chance.

there's a book here somewhere
Revisado: 08-02-22
The narration was great. It was the only reason I kept listening. The book needed a much better editor. As it stands it is a mish-mash of several stories which aren't well presented.

creepy
Revisado: 05-24-22
This is the creepiest book i have ever read/listened to. It is also over long and the narrator reads too slowly. Speeding up helped the narration, but the book needs to be heavily edited. Any way, if I had known how creepy it would be i would never have read it.

The Great War is over - but in Ireland, in the wake of the bloody 1916 Easter Rising, anyone who served in France is now considered a traitor, including Nurse Eileen Flynn and former soldier Michael Sullivan, who only want to be married in the small, isolated village where she grew up. Even her grandmother is against it, and Eileen’s only protection is her cousin Terrence, who was a hero of the Rising and is still being hunted by the British.

Disappointed
Revisado: 07-20-21
For the first time I did not like this Bess Crawford story. The historical background was interesting but the story was very formulaic and thus the history didn’t add much to the story.

Scandinavia in WWll
Revisado: 07-03-21
Interesting information about Sweden during the WWll era. For some people it will be very surprising and worth learning. Do listen to the author’s notes at the end of the book.
I didn’t like the structure of the book, the alternating narrators. This seems to be a popular technique right now. I prefer a more seamless style.

The year is 1883, and in New York City it's a time of dizzying splendor, crushing poverty, and tremendous change. With the gravity-defying Brooklyn Bridge nearly complete and New York in the grips of antivice crusader Anthony Comstock, Anna Savard and her cousin, Sophie - both graduates of the Woman's Medical School - treat the city's most vulnerable, even if doing so may put everything they've strived for in jeopardy.

Women, medicine and New York
Revisado: 06-24-21
The story is very good with many themes going on simultaneously, many of which are still very relevant. The narrator whose voice is not irritating will however put you to sleep.

It is the late summer of 1814, and Hannah Bonner and her half brother Luke have spent more than a year searching the islands of the Caribbean for Luke's wife and the man who abducted her. But Jennet's rescue, so long in coming, is not the resolution they'd hoped for. In the spring she had given birth to Luke's son, and in the summer Jennet had found herself compelled to surrender the infant to a stranger in the hope of keeping him safe.

Very interesting. The author’s writing has improved which is very pleasing. The story told is fast paced and deals with issues still relevant to today.

Weaving a vibrant tapestry of fact and fiction, Into the Wilderness sweeps us into another time and place...and into the heart of a forbidden, incandescent affair between a spinster Englishwoman and an American frontiersman. Here is an epic of romance and history that will captivate readers from the start.

This book does owe a lot to Outlander but it’s good escapism and will keep you occupied for a while.

Phillappa Gregory vs Alison Weir
Revisado: 05-22-21
Alison Weir is more scholarly and I believe she does more research and is more accurate. However PG’s novels are more lively. So I chose them according to my mood. Sometimes I read both!
