In violent agreement

Revisado: 04-14-21

It is highly unusual to find almost universal agreement in the reviews of any audiobook. Having approximately 150 audiobooks in my personal library I can attest to the fact my fellow listeners are spot on when they say giving one star for narration in this book is overly generous.
Having said that, for anyone who is interested in governance, politics or the United States Senate "Kill Switch” is a must read and that includes every sitting in United States senator.

Fascinating, historical, credible

Revisado: 02-09-21

Over the past four years I have watched, listened to and read a great deal of information about our 45th president. Much of it thoroughly researched and well written and some of it not so much.
However, if you truly want to know and understand Donald J. Trump you have only to read or listen to “Too Much and Never Enough by Mary L. Trump and "Tower of Lies” by Barbara A. Res. Two different authors, two very different perspectives, one congruent conclusion.

Please, not again.

I have finished eight of Ken Follet’s historical fiction novels. I have throughly enjoyed his historical research and story lines. Unfortunately, after finishing this novel I have finally had enough of Follet's constant and ubiquitous sexual interactions between the characters. The over-the-top and unrealistic sexual desires of the women in his stories is reminiscent of a Junior High school boy who has discovered his first Playboy magazine.
My criticism does not emanate from some prudish assault on my sensibilities. I only wish that Follet would use sex in his books as the salt of the meal and not the main course.

Just what’s needed

Revisado: 07-11-20

Audible Review

During this time when so many in our National leadership are mired down in narcissism, false rhetoric, and divisiveness, The Death of Expertise is a not so gentle, but justified, rap across the knuckles by a dedicated professor that says wake up, sit up straight and pay attention. After finishing this read I concluded that it was just what I needed to hear.

It Depends On You

Revisado: 03-08-13

First, let me say this is a very good story. It’s beautifully written and reveals a world most of us know little about or have ever given much consideration. But I would offer a word of caution. If you are a type “A” personality, beware. This is a narration in no kind of hurry and could drive you nuts. If you like your stories ambling along with frequent digressions over this or that you’re going to love this book. Unless you happen to be an individual that gets queasy over not so pretty, gut wrenching, painful descriptions of various medical maladies. Other that than that…enjoy!

Ever feel like Texas had it coming? Well it came.

Revisado: 07-13-12

What made the experience of listening to As Texas Goes... How the Lone Star State Hijacked the American Agenda the most enjoyable?

Anyone who has ever had to deal with the Texas culture, the unwarranted arrogance and absurdities that goes with it will certainly appreciate the wit and humor that Gail Collins brings to the subject.

Would you be willing to try another one of Gail Collins’s performances?

Only if Ms. Collins sticks to writting and leaves the narration to the professionals. While some may find her "dead pan performance" suitable to the narrative I found insufferable.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Although there is a serious and dark side to this book there is also much that is a real giggle.
