Historia
Young playwright Melina Green has just written a new work inspired by the life of her Elizabethan ancestor Emilia Bassano. But seeing it performed is unlikely, in a theater world where the playing field isn’t level for women. As Melina wonders if she dares risk failure again, her best friend takes the decision out of her hands and submits the play to a festival under a male pseudonym.

Masterful storytelling from a modern writer.
Revisado: 03-19-25
Every once in a while, a book comes along that will follow you through life. This is one of those books. A tale of two very different - but very similar- women, it was exquisitely well crafted and a pleasure to read. My only negative is that the feminist statement was not subtle. In a book that was otherwise seamlessly woven and wonderful, I really felt like message didn’t need to be hammered home. Maybe I’m wrong and we as a society have become unable to comprehend without being “told.” If so, my apologies for the complaint, because this book is so good that it’s truly a minor issue. Thank you to the author, and this reader gives you a standing ovation!

Historia
Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous–and most revered–doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.

As a physician and career long Fauci Fan, I was happy to listen to his autobiography. As always, unapologetic in presenting his truths. An honorable man and true American Hero.

Where was her editor?
Revisado: 08-19-24
I finished this book because I finish books, but I think I was done with it about halfway through. What would have made a good short story made a tedious book. And in the end, it didn’t really seem like the author had grown or changed. She merely endured. Glad it was a freebee. Next!!

Historia
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

She can’t eke out enough time to attend her own pre-wedding parties in beautiful Blue Hill, Maine.

While a bit predictable, the story was still fun. The reader sounded so much like a computer, I had to double check that it wasn’t recorded with virtual voice.

Historia
Newly minted doctor Jane McGill is in hell. Not literally, of course. But between her drug addict patients, sleepless nights on call, and battling wits with the sadistic yet charming Sexy Surgeon, Jane can't imagine an afterlife much worse than her first month of medical internship at County Hospital. And then there's the devil herself: Jane's senior resident, Dr. Alyssa Morgan.

Dated Technology
Revisado: 04-29-24
Although the info says this was recorded in 2017, sounds like it was written pre 1990. Just a little distracting from being able to suspend disbelief. Interns use these devices called computers now and input their own orders, unless they are phoning something in, which would later be electronically co-signed. We hand wrote orders up to a point, but by the time I retired as a physician in mid 2015 everything in the medical record was completely electronic. No paper charts. Not sure if they carry pagers anymore, but I just had a cell phone. Cute story nonetheless

The year is 1731, and in a small village in Cheshire, England, the Reverend Browne has determined the future of his young daughter, Sarah.

Super awesome historical fiction
Revisado: 06-01-23
I love these stories because they are well written and historically accurate
Most historical fiction bends the history to the story, but Ms Brannon’s work weaves her fictional character into the true history. I particularly loved and hated this book. I didn’t like all the torture scenes, but they were factual and represented the treatment at the time. I also loved it that the ultimate outcome was one I would have hoped for!

Based on the leadership lessons she's gathered from her resourceful and resilient life, Captain Sandy, a superyacht captain and star of Bravo's Below Deck Mediterranean, shares the leadership skills and critical thinking inherent to being a captain that can empower anyone to navigate their way to a successful life.

What a tremendous person Captain Sandy is! Perhaps if I were young and we weren't of the same age, I would become a boat captain instead of a physician. I read this because I love the sea, but I learned so much more than what a simple boat story can tell. (Sandy, if you ever need a doctor on board, give me a holler. I would be honored to serve under you.) You are truly a wonderful role model and inspiring to a generation of women. Your book gives me hope. If young people can hear your message, I'm sure you will spur many to a better future!

Historia
For Lila Reyes, a summer in England was never part of the plan. But then the Trifecta happened, and everything—including Lila herself—fell apart. Worried about Lila’s mental health, her parents make a new plan for her: Spend three months with family friends in Winchester, England, to reset. But with the lack of sun, a grumpy inn cook, and a small town lacking Miami flavor (in food and otherwise), what would be a dream trip for some feels more like a nightmare to Lila…until she meets Orion Maxwell. It isn’t long before Lila is not only charmed by Orion, but England itself.

Cute Story
Revisado: 09-14-22
Good story but I couldn't quite give it 5 stars. Had the main character been aged at fresh out of college, I would have bought her emotional and intellectual maturity. But I've never yet met a high schooler like this, so I had a tad bit of trouble with the suspension of reality necessary to really believe in her.
