Reincarnated in my own world

Revisado: 05-20-24

I like the use of knowledge as a weapon balanced with brute force. It added a sense of realism to the time the book was placed

An interesting recipe for intrigue

Revisado: 11-26-19

An interesting mix of Grimm’s Fairytales, Frankenstein, and Paradise Lost

I couldn’t stop listening to this dark myth drenched in mystery

A good beginning

Revisado: 10-15-16

Would you consider the audio edition of The Warlord Wants Forever to be better than the print version?

Yes, mostly because Robert Petkoff could make the phone book sexy.

What other book might you compare The Warlord Wants Forever to and why?

Deep Kiss of Winter. Both target some of the worst issues that can happen in a relationship, but just can't hold my interest as some of Cole's other books. This is because both books have the men growing up but the women hardly changing at all.

Which scene was your favorite?

The scene where Myst forgives Nikoli. Nothing like a round of goul carnage and the rescue of a general in distress to bring a couple together.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

I'm so happy this was redone with Robert Petkoff. The last one was just a mess.

Addictive and Irritating

Revisado: 07-25-16

What made the experience of listening to Agatha Raisin and the Terrible Tourist the most enjoyable?

Agatha finally stood up to James! Yay, I really find it hard to pity the guy.

What other book might you compare Agatha Raisin and the Terrible Tourist to and why?

Any other in the series, it truly is one of a kind.

Which scene was your favorite?

The final scene, not because it was finished but because James was the one waiting like a sad puppy for once.

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

A lot of rage. These characters were somewhat likeable together, but when they fight wish I could smack some sense into them sometimes.

Any additional comments?

A peak in the series. Finally there is some, a nanometer really, of personal growth in our main character. Hopefully the next book doesn't have her backsliding.

Sweet and Awkward

Revisado: 07-25-16

What did you love best about Undeath and Taxes?

The fact that it is multiple stories in one book and each one is more interesting than the last.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The Alpha of the Region, the way he is with his daughter makes me feel things I thought died some time ago.

What does Kirby Heyborne bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

A sense of ease in the story, he doesn't rush it or act like he's reading a phone book. He sets an easy pace to let the listener absorb the story's details and shows each character's individual personality.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Every time.

Almost busted a gut laughing

Revisado: 07-25-16

What made the experience of listening to Bricking It the most enjoyable?

The fact that I can actually see these sort of messed up misadventures happening in real life. From finding troubling secrets of family past to somehow setting recreational marijuana accidentally in a bonfire.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Bricking It?

When our remodelers find a bundle of disturbing, ancient sex toys in the chimney.

What does Napoleon Ryan and Heather Wilds bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The two play off each other very well, managing to establish their own voice in the story without overpowering the other.

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

As previously stated, I nearly busted a gut laughing. If you're feeling blue, put this on for about fifteen minutes and it might do the same for you.

Any additional comments?

Inappropriate and yet completely dead on when it comes to the action and reaction of a group of people stuck in...well I'll admit it...the skeleton of a house. Some thoughts of philosophy, personal growth, and the reestablishment of family bonds in the weirdest of ways. Even without the stealth ninja cow.

When Bailey and Poppet meet as adults.

Another great one

Revisado: 04-06-16

Excellently cast and written. It had me smiling, laughing, and even crying a little. It's the sort of book that makes you feel as if you're growing up with the characters alongside the hero, and any loss or joy they feel is your own.
