Historia
Xishi’s beauty is seen as a blessing to the villagers of Yue—convinced that the best fate for a girl is to marry well and support her family. When Xishi draws the attention of the famous young military advisor, Fanli, he presents her with a rare opportunity: to use her beauty as a weapon. One that could topple the rival neighboring kingdom of Wu, improve the lives of her people, and avenge her sister’s murder. All she has to do is infiltrate the enemy palace as a spy, seduce their immoral king, and weaken them from within.

A beautiful story
Revisado: 02-05-25
What an amazing performance given by the narrator to this beautiful, yet tragic, story. When not listening, I wondered what Seisha was doing. As I returned to the story, I hoped it wouldn’t end. Yet I knew, it must. Read, listen, let this story enter your mind; your soul. You will never be the same. War and leaders of countries care nothing for the people. It is only to gain or regain, whatever is believed to be power and dominance at the time.

Historia
When the president of the Brook Ridge Falls senior center book club is found dead, face down in one of the pies meant for the club’s pie-eating contest, Lexy and her posse of grandmothers take it upon themselves to find the killer. Too bad the only potential clue might be buried inside one of the many pies taken by the police for evidence. Lexy, Nans, and the ladies will use their uncanny methods of deduction to ferret out the killer. They waste no time filling their suspect list. But what has Lexy really worried is that someone in her group seems to have a secret of her own.

This slice was a little stale
Revisado: 02-01-25
Once again, Lexi finds herself in the middle of a murder. What’s new you may ask. Not too much, but the story still had a way of keeping you listening. The narrator, usually really good, had some character blunders along the way which was rather disappointing. It would be nice to have “the girls” be a little less predictable as well as the plot. Fresh pie is always better.

Historia
Caroline Wilton has no time for romance. She’s too busy running her family’s bar to even think about dating. She’s also one of Starfall Point’s resident witches, responsible for keeping the local ghost population in check.

What to Say
Revisado: 12-09-24
I think I missed a part. The plot kinda has a resolution, but then does it? Why do these obviously intelligent women need men to make them happy in each and every book? So, will the relationships last through book 3? Who will leave the coven first? Will Clark be sent to the other dimension? I guess I’ll have to listen to find out.

Historia
There are few moments in American history in which the course of events tipped so suddenly and so dramatically as at the Battle of Midway. At dawn of June 4, 1942, a rampaging Japanese navy ruled the Pacific. By sunset, their vaunted carrier force (the Kido Butai) had been sunk and their grip on the Pacific had been loosened forever. In this absolutely riveting account of a key moment in the history of World War II, one of America's leading naval historians, Craig L. Symonds, paints an unforgettable portrait of ingenuity, courage, and sacrifice.

You may knock US down, but you can't knock US out

Interesting but not captivating
Revisado: 11-16-24
I learned a lot about this battle through a very well narrated performance. To me, the story lacked personality because there were few people’s stories to bring it to life. However, I would recommend this book as it does provide the history of this battle well.

Blackmoor Sisters
Revisado: 10-16-24
Throughout this series, my main complaint was with the narrator. She just didn’t appeal to me. She did do well imitating a cat, though. As for the stories, they were okay. I found the characters difficult to connect to. Love is grand, but does it have to affect everyone? I ask you to read the series as this is my opinion and feelings. You may find these girls right up your paranormal alley.

It took me a while to adjust your this new cast of characters and how the book tells the story. I almost didn’t listen beyond Chapter 1, but I’m
Glad I stayed along for the ride. It’s a true who-dun-it, and the secret is well-kept. I will tell you this my favorite character is Rosie. Thank you, Mr. Osman, for another great read.

A great whodunit-kinda
Revisado: 09-10-24
On a positive note, the narrator made this book. She did an amazing job! I fear if it weren’t for her I wouldn’t have finished this book.
The not-so-positive:The story was very slow in parts. Yet the perpetrators were not easily identified making the mystery quite good.
This book is another Give It a Try book. Thank you, again, to the narrator.

Not the usual for Dr. Reichs
Revisado: 09-01-24
I want to preface this by saying I love Dr. Reichs and her books. However, to me, this was not the best. The plot drug in places and the usual suspense wasn’t there. That being said, I will a wait anxiously for another book. Everyone deserves an off day.
