Loved the way Rootless was structured with me thinking I knew where the story was taking me. I was surprised at many plot points but the three-dimensional characters shared their souls; it was a beautiful, heart-wrenching journey. It was an international and cultural joy to dive into whenever I got a chance.

Krystle Zara Appiah is a true storyteller and now one of my favorite authors.

It was wonderful that the three-dimensional characters came full circle. I cringe a tad at all the expletives but the story is so well-written I manage. My responses and chuckles at the plot tell me sometimes you like something that isn't exactly the way you want it to be. Enjoy the ride!

Loved the back and forth, the emotion and agony. The pain and anguish, the joy of being in love. The magic and the forgiveness. Story well told!

Stacey Abrams weaved a tale that covered so much ground - addiction, character, treason, science, intrigue, politics, terrorism, family dysfunction and good old-fashioned smarts - and it worked. Great narration by Adenrele Ojo made the story even more appealing. So glad Ms. Abrams kept fighting for this story to get told.

Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone is a wonderful read. Not just for Outlander fans but anyone who loves a good story, well told.

I have read all of the Outlander books, associated novellas and short stories. The joy of reading them lies in the descriptive, passionate writing of Diana Gabaldon. The characters she has created LIVE! You cannot help but be swept up in the many tales of the many interesting characters. Although I don’t really care for period pieces, this series has been the exception.

Bees has it all - intrigue, battles, love, passion, humor…jump in and enjoy!

I greatly enjoyed The Other Side. The story was rich, the characters were fleshed out, three-dimensional and interesting. I laughed out loud as if I was listening to cherished sisterfriends.

I wasn't sure I would get past the performance though. The narrator had great diction. However the performance was stilted but got much better as the book went on. It's always the little things that make the difference. The unnecessary spaces in the flow between great dialogue and who was speaking drove me crazy throughout. I will attribute that to bad direction of the narrator and hope she does better in the future.

I guess when I got this title I missed that it had diverse characters. These characters were so relatable especially since I grew up in Northern California. The "meet cute" set-up, the boy/girl of a certain age, their conflicts and resolutions, the royals thrown in for fun. it all worked.

The downside for me was that the narrator's British accents weren't good and distracted from the wonderful story. Getting the accents right is so integral to having the full story-telling experience especially given the story's locale. My hope is that the narrator learns how to better manage accents in her future projects.

I was lulled and bored by the wife’s perspective but I liked the story in spite of her. Kept reading and loved the other characters and at the end it all worked out to my amazement.

These Audible Originals are always a joy.

The story had me laughing, giggling and chuckling out loud. The guy narrator was great; the female narrator’s voice grated on my nerves. The story kept me listening.

Best supporting character was Brooke - she was a hoot!

Enjoy the ride to pleasure, fulfillment and satisfaction!

I am totally captivated by the beginnings of the Holmes brothers’ adventures. I especially like the diversity of characters that gives rise to all sorts of new angles for storytelling.
