Historia
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

the story was fun and unique. Some of it was a bit over the top but the terrific voice cast made it all work.

Historia
While the success of Disneyland is largely credited to Walt and Roy Disney, there was a third, mostly forgotten dynamo instrumental to the development of the park: fast-talking Texan C. V. Wood. Three Years in Wonderland presents the never-before-told, full story of "the happiest place on earth".

interesting angle on Disney history
Revisado: 06-13-22
I liked the chance to dive in a bit more on Woody's story of the park creation although I was expecting a bit more of him (seemed like a lot of the stories were just the same stories I'd read in other books on the subject).
I wasn't a fan of the reader's mildly sing-songy cadence. At times it felt like I was listening to a children's book.

Historia
Putting It Together chronicles the two-year odyssey of creating the iconic Broadway musical Sunday in the Park with George. Through conversations between Lapine and Sondheim, as well as most of the production team, and with a treasure trove of personal photographs, sketches, script notes, and sheet music, the two Broadway icons lift the curtain on their beloved musical. Putting It Together is a deeply personal remembrance of their collaboration and friendship and the highs and lows of that journey, one that resulted in the beloved Pulitzer Prize-winning classic.

The Disneyland Story: The Unofficial Guide to the Evolution of Walt Disney's Dream is the story of how Walt Disney's greatest creation was conceived, nurtured, and how it grew into a source of joy and inspiration for generations of visitors. Despite his successors' battles with the whims of history and their own doubts and egos, Walt's vision maintained momentum, thrived, and taught future generations how to do it Walt Disney's way.

Historia
This is a spectacular story of error and innovation, a wild ride from a vision to the realization of an iconic cultural landscape. It reflects the park’s uniqueness, but just as strongly that of the man who built it with a watchmaker’s precision, an artist’s conviction, and the desperate, high-hearted recklessness of a riverboat gambler.

I am not a Disney fan and have been underwhelmed by the parks but I found this book fascinating. It gave me a whole new level of respect of what was achieved in the building of Disneyland.

Great idea, disappointing result
Revisado: 02-20-21
Since Hardy Boys and other chapter books are some of my fondest memories from childhood and since anything set in old New York appeals to me I went into this with high hopes.
Although I found the stories interesting the characters struck me as idiots and their dumb behavior took me out of the narrative. Rather than getting involved I found myself making fun of them as I listened.
All that being said I did listen to the whole thing because I wanted to know the answer to the main mystery.

Historia
When editor Susan Ryeland is given the manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel, she has no reason to think it will be much different from any of his others. After working with the best-selling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus Pünd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful.

Solid Murder Mystery within a Murder Mystery
Revisado: 02-20-21
Truly fun, twisty murder mystery. The voice work from both narrators was top notch and though I didn't love the ending the journey was well worth it.

Historia
Semele Cavnow appraises antiquities for an exclusive Manhattan auction house. When she discovers a manuscript written in the time of Cleopatra, she knows it will be the find of her career. Its author tells the story of a priceless tarot deck, now lost to history. As Semele delves further, she realizes the manuscript is more than it seems. Both a memoir and a prophecy, it appears to be the work of a powerful seer, describing devastating wars and natural disasters in detail thousands of years before they occurred.

Cliche after Cliche
Revisado: 03-30-20
I was intrigued by the premise and hung in there just long enough that I couldn't justify returning the book but I wish I had.
I'm not a reader who tries to "get ahead" of the story but I knew every "twist" or "revelation" long before the heroine.
And this book has every movie cliche possible from ticking bombs to monologing villains.
On the positive side the narrators (there are two) did a terrific job.

A very interesting story about a complicated family history. The story is well laid out, sympathetic and has enough twists to keep you listening. As a bonus I learned some Yiddish!
