I have listened to this book several times, many have been to help me fall asleep. In this I don't mean to imply the stories are boring or unable to catch my interest, but simply that the narrative talent doesn't disturb from ones body's natural ques and needs. I appreciate a narrator who can keep your interest while allowing a person to relax and just listen. This is also a book that can be listened to while working or doing things that require your mind. I will listen to this and many times hear things I have missed or forgotten (prob due to sharing my mind with other things like sleep and work or kids), every time I listen is like the first time and I appreciate the creativity and skill that type of story writing and telling that takes.
This book does have a darkness to it that all Potter Lore type books have. I would not recommend it for smaller or more sensitive children. It may bore the adventure seeking as it is written as a story that is being told then broken down and interpreted by a knowledgeable source in matters related or pertaining to said stories. (I am sure there is a word for this- as I have just drifted off in the middle and woken up to happily listen to through the end- thinking about how I appreciate the skilled people in this presentation all around so much so I decided to write this review to share those thoughts. Forgive my confusion with my vocabulary, but I think the jist of what I meant to say is clear.)

Historia
Hailed as one of the world’s masterpieces of psychological realism, The Death of Ivan Ilyich is the story of a worldly careerist, a high-court judge who has never given the inevitability of his death so much as a passing thought. But one day death announces itself to him, and to his shocked surprise he is brought face-to-face with his own mortality. How, Tolstoy asks, does an unreflective man confront his one and only moment of truth?

Historia
The Brothers Karamazov tells the stirring tale of four brothers: the pleasure-seeking, impatient Dmitri; the brilliant and morose Ivan; the gentle, loving, and honest Alyosha; and the illegitimate Smerdyakov: shy, silent, and cruel. The four unite in the murder of one of literature's most despicable characters - their father. This was Dostoevsky's final and best work.

Historia
Golden Globe-winning actor Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under) performs Truman Capote's masterstroke about a young writer's charmed fascination with his unorthodox neighbor, the "American geisha" Holly Golightly. Holly - a World War II-era society girl in her late teens - survives via socialization, attending parties and restaurants with men from the wealthy upper class who also provide her with money and expensive gifts. Over the course of the novella, the seemingly shallow Holly slowly opens up to the curious protagonist.

This book was great. I wish it was longer, the stories are simple lessons that make one appreciate the gifts we are surrounded by. The connection to animals and the elements- I can't wait to share these stories with my kids and help them see the beauty in them that I do- each in their own way. Thank you for sharing.

Historia
They call him The Mute for a reason. Hard, cold, and calculated, he rarely speaks. When he does, it's with disdain. When he does, his words aren't meant for me. When he does, my stomach flips and my world tilts on its axis. He is 33. I am 18. He's a single dad and my father's business partner. I'm just a kid to him and his enemy's daughter. He's emotionally unavailable. And I am...feeling. Feeling things I shouldn't feel for him. Trent Rexroth is going to break my heart. The writing isn't just on the wall, it's inked on my soul.

So far this is my favorite story in the series.
Revisado: 12-20-20
The first book was good and so it progresses... I like that they have depth- the characters, history & sex. Somehow it all becomes related and messy- right even when it's wrong. Don't fight the tide. Every Cali girl learns this the hard way- at least once; a force of nature that never loses. Not unlike the power of the moon, a another element that tugs at our hearts - la Luna- silent and bright.

Bane: Naked surfer. Habitual pothead. A con, a liar, a thief, and a fraud. Last I heard, he was extorting the rich and screwing their wives for a living. Which is why I’m more than a little surprised to find him at my threshold, looking for my friendship, my services, and most puzzling of all - looking humbled. Thing is, I’m on a boycott. Literally - cut boys from my life. Permanently. Problem is, Bane is not a boy, he is all man, and I’m falling, crashing, drowning in his sweet, perfect lies.

Not bad I like her style
Revisado: 12-08-20
These dudes..... hot holes, pretty accurate nickname. This is the second book in the series that I have read and I like the authors style. I grew up with boys so her writing is pretty accurate seeming when coming from the Male perspective- lots of f-bombs and references to genetalia. Got a bit of that stalker, meanness, high school bs vibe grows up to douche bag it up- with money. So if your a little p◇$$y/bit◇h that can't handle the real world or live in a bubble aside from the one covid created... you may be offended - or who knows maybe this is what you need to get into a creative not your life mood as books are supposed to do. The sex "scenes" were hot but not whatever the word for "book porn" would be... idk book porn? Again, depending on the reader... I'd say check it out if you don't like it then im pretty sure you can regift it to your cool friend... or her mom.
I don't know if I preferred Alexa ot the narrators... mixed on that note. I'm off to the next book! Have fun reading.... if covid is still rocking it's nasty little a$$ this is the perfect thing to read to help make you miss making out and want to call the second guy you went all the way with (because the first was selfish, damaging and didn't know wtf hewas doing)... BUT YOU CAN'T SO MASK UP, WRAP IT UP AND STAY HOME SUKAS!!! 😉😜

Historia
It’s been 10 years since a group of college friends made a vow: that the first to get rich would rent a boat and invite the others on a cruise. Now, the friends find themselves marooned at a luxurious hotel on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. While their boat is being repaired, they can’t help but observe the daily routine of a fellow hotel guest - a mysterious, white-bearded stranger who sits on the veranda each night and smokes one cigarette, sometimes two.
