Superb

Revisado: 04-07-22

I have enjoyed at least 3 of Mandel's prior novels and this one is maybe the best. I was transfixed. It all comes together toward the end. I rarely write reviews but I have to this time - even the narration is perfect.

A fine, fine history book!

Revisado: 12-11-21

This book was superb! I'd wanted to read it since it came out but just never did. It was fabulous. It is kind of for historians or history buffs or people who really do enjoy reading history including a lot of military and political history. Woodson gave the book an excellent reading.

Another 5!

Revisado: 11-18-21

Another lovely book in the series and the narrator, Bianca Amato is perfect. The little plots are compelling without losing the cozy feel of the book.  The characters continue to talk and behave true to form with Precious and J. L. B. Matekoni gaining some texture.  Keep these treasures coming!  (I've read all of the books in order in one form or another since the first one in 1998 - they're still magic. - I recommend reading in order because the characters drive the story.)

Great once you get into it.

This book was great once I got into it. That was about chapter 4. And from that point on it got better and better. Nice narration.

Another one!

Revisado: 10-23-20

I really enjoy the Goodlove and Shek series for the setting, the complex puzzlers, the legal play and dramatic courtroom action as well as more of the company of Garrett Goodlove and his crew. Nick Sullivan's narrations is wonderful. I would advise the books be read in order because in a series there tends to be an over-arching plot which works on developing characters and their relationships.

Brilliant -

Revisado: 10-22-20

The true story of a slave woman who was freed and then snatched and enslaved again only to be released with the eventual ending of the Civil War is a good one in itself, but McDaniel, the author, adds so much US history that it's a marvel. It won the Pulitzer in history for a reason.

A Romance!

Revisado: 07-30-20

I was tricked into thinking this book was a mystery and it has that aspect but ... no. It's a romance. And a dreadfully cliched one at that. This is one the of worst books I've listened to on Audible and I've listened to a LOT. Maybe romance readers would enjoy it but please. Don't buy it expecting a normal crime novel - that's part of the setting I think.

Oh Dear Duchess!

Revisado: 07-20-20

I loved the book. I wanted to curl up and just enjoy all day and not let it end. I read along with the Audible to get the effect of the Twitter feeds but it's not really necessary. This book just leaves a soft happy place in my heart. Perfect for quarantine times.

Terrific!

Revisado: 05-31-20

I've now read all three of Macy's Garrett Goodlove series and totally look forward to the next one. They're not "cozy" but only because they hit on some ugly and often difficult real life problems. I suggest reading them in order because there is a background arc which progresses through them.
