Comedic Honesty

Revisado: 01-10-25

I loved Sofie’s honesty and laughter, as she makes fun of herself, in pursuit of helping those who have not found an emotionally comfortable place in life. The little stories and analogies she tells helped to understand her concepts. I found myself looking forward to the next chapter every time. She has as beautiful voice, which makes this book more enjoyable.

A Very Compelling Story

Revisado: 11-15-24

The historical accuracy of this story really hit close to home. As a wife of a Vietnam era Army Vet and a resident in proximity of Coronado, California, it brought back similar memories and I found myself in tears several times. Especially at the disdain and rejection of our Vietnam Vets, and even more at those who were women. I thought I had reached the end of the story at several points, but was very pleased that it continued. This is a really good read (or in this case, listen).

Reality On Paper

Revisado: 06-28-24

I like how realistic the children were and how simple and true-to -life the plot is. Sudden death is so tragic and hard to accept, yet children are so adaptable.

Overcoming Our Inner Fear

Revisado: 05-24-24

Luke’s story about finding himself and his self worth was interesting. It shows how even if you are born riding the coattails of your parents’ fame and success there is no guarantee these will automatically be inherited by you. I was disappointed at the drama-less reading. It was too flat. A bit more enthusiasm in the reading would have made the book more adventurous and funny.

Alaska: Educational, Yet Entertaining

Revisado: 05-03-23

Michener weaves history, geography and other educational themes with interesting stories of some of the people who inhabited and traveled to Alaska during the span of many generations. He intertwines stories of adventure, fortune, love and loss intricately, yet with a simplicity that makes it easy to. understand. The narrator reads this book in a quiet soft voice which makes it a perfect evening relaxation activity.

Great Insight

Revisado: 03-27-23

This book gave me great insight to the workings of our military, how hard it is to be apolitical, and how they are under-appreciated. I already know Trump is difficult and unreliable, but this book confirms some of the things I have heard. The book was an easy listen and very informative.

Down to Earth

Revisado: 03-14-23

I loved this book and I loved the way it was read. The story was real and down to
earth. Tragic, yet funny. As an American/Mexican I really appreciated that the Spanish words were pronounced in Spanish.

Very Scary Possibility

Revisado: 04-06-22

We think our democracy is so strong that nothing like this could ever happen in the United States, but the events of January 6th, 2021, are much too similar to what happened in this book. Very scary.

I absolutely enjoyed Clair Diane's reading of this book. She made me feel as if I was there with her.

Painfully Sad, Comically Funny

Revisado: 12-18-21

The story of a by-sheer-chance friendship, created in impossible circumstances. The way the science is explained makes it seem very plausible. I truly hope that if humans ever get to meet alien beings we can do it in the spirit of peace and cooperation the way Grace and Rocky did. This story made me both cry and laugh. Very enjoyable.

Some Painful Truths

Revisado: 12-08-21

Mr. Klass opened my eyes to a lot of truths most of us would prefer not to know. Stay ignorant at your own peril. Biden's presidency does not mean we are saved.
