Great story, characters, narration.

Revisado: 02-27-25

Vivid characters and intriguing story line.
Never predictable. Always keeping the plot twisting and leaves reader wanting to know what is going to happen next. Personally, I was very attached to a couple characters and felt empathy for their plight.

Different for me. Very good.

Revisado: 10-26-24

It’s a short read. But seems longer. And was just enough. It takes getting used the narrator. Who was perfect. Then you get in the cadence of the story. And once you are in, at least for me I could hear nothing else. I can’t think of the right word. It’s different. I’m always open to other peoples insights on this topic. I am not giving too must away. I’ll be thinking about this book for days to come.

Ugh

Creepy. Horrible. Bad dialogue. Use of nasty language. Uninteresting characters. Worst book I’ve gotten on audible

Frustrating kooky neighbors.

Revisado: 07-30-24

Too many badly behaved characters getting away with annoying behaviors. Too many good characters getting constantly thwarted by the bad ones. I kept asking myself why anyone would put up with such weird neighbors. It wasn’t believable.

Great follow up after Brooklyn.

Revisado: 05-15-24

I never read anything quite like it. I’m still thinking about it What a strange dilemma Eilis faces. I finished this book, I reread Brooklyn. I was trying to internalize the bizarre situation Eilis has deal with in the second installment. In reading other reviews, many readers felt that the ending fell flat. The ending left me wanting more. I think Eilis will surprise us in the next book. Go Eilis! It’s a great story and I’m looking forward to next sequel. And hope Jessie Buckley narrates. She’s great.

Cheers to Emily Henry!

I love books that grab me from the beginning. And I always choose books after I listen to the narrator. I was hooked from beginning. The main characters were believable and not soap opera types. It’s weird but the ratball characters were really fun to dislike. And I was hoping for revenge. You’ll have to read it. entertaining story and great narrator.

Delightful Murder Mystery

Revisado: 03-13-24

Another Thursday Club book which has been a joy to read. I feel like I know these characters in real life! Like I could visit Cooper Chase retirement home and have tea and the best company!
The dialogue is so brilliant! These lovely people who have grown old, but manage to cope with aging, death and aches and pains, and loneliness with a je ne sais quoi. The clever mystery is full of enough twists and turns to keep you guessing. Oscar worthy narration by Leslie Mandeville ! My new audible favorite author. Cheers to Richard Osman! Keep them coming.

I’ve never read anything like it.

Revisado: 12-05-23

Reading this book was a unique experience. I read it, and then read it again. It’s not an epic tale with twists and turns that I usually read. It’s rich in language and beautiful descriptions. Surreal. The author is a master story teller. I loved how the characters connected with each other. Perfect narration. Great read!

The main reason to listen to audible

Revisado: 11-10-23

Some books take a while to settle into. But The Caretaker grabs you and you are completely immersed in the story. Ron Rash is such a talented writer. I’m am so sad to finish this book. I’ll be dwelling on it for days. Then I’ll listen again, make sure I didn’t miss a single word.

New twist with Maisie Dobbs

Revisado: 08-31-23

Don’t want to give too much away, but this new adventure in Maisie Dobbs life is full of darker twist and turns in Munich. I have become so involved in Maisie’s life that I although I know this is a novel, I was on the edge of my seat, fearing for Maisie’s safety. The time of the Nazi’s should always instill fear in our hearts. A very excellent Maisie Dobbs novel.
