Historia
On Hallowe'en night, Mathilda Honeycutt finds out she's a SuperWitch. Not the modern, hippie kind...the real, wand-wielding, pixie-dust kind. After a life devoted to retail and coffee drinks, Mathilda is thrown into the secret world of witches, werewolves, vampires, faeries, you name it, it exists! As Mathilda discovers her magic, she also discovers she's prophesied to save the world. The problem is, she'd rather spend her time on online auctions bidding on fabulous designer shoes.

Most unlistenable book EVER
Revisado: 01-16-21
I love Kristen Ashley. I own all her books on Audible. I HATE this one. Apparently, she decided to skip about 1/3 of all "the"s, "a"s, etc. It is so distracting, I can't even finish the first chapter. Shame on you for not using correct English in a book. Unfortunately, I have owned this book too long to return it.

Historia
In this incisive memoir, Steve Lukather tells the complete Toto story. He also lifts the lid on what went on behind the closed studio doors, shedding light on the unique creative processes of some of the most legendary names in music: from Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, and Elton John to Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen, and Aretha Franklin. Lukather’s extraordinary tale also encompasses the dark side of stardom and the American Dream. Frank, engaging, and often hilarious, The Gospel According to Luke is no ordinary rock memoir.

Interesting
Revisado: 09-10-20
So, I didn't know who Steve Lukather is, although I'm familiar with the band. I would NEVER have bought this book, but it was the daily deal one day. So I decided to listen to it. It was pretty good, although I have no idea who many of the people mentioned are, It was fun to listen to. I don't think I had heard the song Africa in years, but after listening to this book (and his opinion of the song), I swear I heard it at least once a week on the radio for a while. I also REALLY liked that he didn't trash the women he mentioned having relationships with - in fact, I don't recall him trashing anyone. All in all, a pretty good autobiography, read by the author and it makes me think that he's probably fun to hang out with.

Historia
Lorenzo Gambini is bored. So f--king bored. Most people either annoy him or avoid him, afraid to face him. Figuratively. Literally. With his face partially disfigured, scarred, he looks every bit the monster the stories make him out to be: the notorious Scar. They say he's a sociopath. Maybe he's a psychopath. Whatever path he's on, people tend to stay far away from it. Until one day, a young woman bumps right into him - a woman just as fed up with life, but for much different reasons.

Not much suspense, but pleanty of humor
Revisado: 05-23-18
I really liked this series, but they are NOT suspenseful, they are funny. I laughed out loud numerous times. I wonder who is categorizing the books. I often find that they are in the wrong category.

Historia
Once upon a time, there was a girl who stopped believing in fairytales after her innocence was stolen. Morgan Myers is tired. So damn tired. Most people either push her around or brush her off, and she's not putting up with it anymore. Determined to reclaim the life that had been stolen from her, she puts her trust in the last person she ever expected to: the notorious Scar. Morgan sees a side of him that few people seem to know - the man, not the myth. Lorenzo. And what she sees, she likes, a lot more than she thought she would.

This book is wrongly classified. It is not very suspenseful, it is hysterical. It should be listed as Romance, Humor. It made me laugh out loud a number of times.

Ignazio Vitale is not a good man. I suspect it the first time I see him, sense the air of danger that surrounds him. He has a way of commanding attention, of taking control, of knowing what I'm thinking before I even do.

Not erotic, stupid plot
Revisado: 05-23-18
The sex scenes in this book are not remotely erotic. They are beyond pedestrian. The ending also was terrible. I REALLY disliked this book, although I like her other books

Historia
The McCready Family Funeral Home and Bait Shop has crickets running rampant in the store and hot sauce in the Snack Shack's ketchup bottles. But as the county coroner, Frankie has enough on her plate without worrying about the increasingly mean pranks being played at her family's business. And the arrival of Sheriff Eric Linden, both devastatingly attractive and painfully taciturn, is enough to push her over the edge.

Not a book, just the first few chapters
Revisado: 05-14-18
I don't know what I paid for this book, but it wasn't worth it. I don't know if Molly Harper is desperate for money or what, but this kind of rip off really ticks me off! I really like her books, but I am extremely disappointed with this non-effort.

Historia
Lindsey Davis’ Master and God is a vastly entertaining historical novel set in the reign of the Emperor Domitian in first-century Rome. It is on the one hand a love story between Gaius Vinius Clodianus, a valiant but reluctant member of the Praetorian Guard, whose military career is as successful as his marital history is disastrous, and Flavia Lucilla, daughter of a freed slave and hairdresser to the ladies of the imperial household. A devastating fire in Rome brings them together....

Boooooring
Revisado: 07-23-12
Would you try another book from Lindsey Davis and/or Robin Sachs?
I love Lindsey Davis' Marcus Didius series and was looking forward to this book, but it was so boring I kept falling asleep. I don't know if the bood was boring or the reader, but it seemed to take forever to finish. I suspect the fault lies with Robin Sachs, because I like her other books so much.
What do you think your next listen will be?
I'm listening to Creole Belle by James Lee Burke.
How could the performance have been better?
Not speak in a monotone!!!!!
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Master and God?
I'm not sure I would cut anything, except the reader. Why would she change readers?
Any additional comments?
Why would an author change from a good reader?

Historia
Lizzy Tucker’s once normal life as a pastry chef in Salem, Massachusetts, turns upside down as she battles both sinister forces and an inconvenient attraction to her unnaturally talented but off-limits partner, Diesel. When Harvard University English professor and dyed-in-the-wool romantic Gilbert Reedy is mysteriously murdered and thrown off his fourth-floor balcony, Lizzy and Diesel take up his 20-year quest for the Luxuria Stone, an ancient relic believed by some to be infused with the power of lust.

Not as good as Stephanie, but still good
Revisado: 07-23-12
Would you consider the audio edition of Wicked Business to be better than the print version?
No, I would always prefer the print version, but I'm legally blink and forced to listen. However, this is a very good audio book - I really like this reader.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Wicked Business?
Carl the monkey and the cat are always funny.
Have you listened to any of Lorelei King’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to all Janet Evanovich's books and I think she is a great performer - perfect for these books.

pretty good book - terrible, awful recording
Revisado: 08-23-11
This book starts out well, but by the end I was bored and I LOVE Julia Child. Part of the problem is that the recording is really awful. The volume is inconsistent and my ipod kept thinking that it had reached the end of the book and would continue to the next book. This would require me to go back and then fast-forward to where I ended. I guess I just got sick of it.
