Kelly Bishop’s long, storied career has been defined by landmark achievements, from winning a Tony Award for her turn in the original Broadway cast of A Chorus Line to her memorable performance as Jennifer Grey’s mother in Dirty Dancing. But it is probably her iconic role as matriarch Emily in the modern classic Gilmore Girls that cemented her legacy. Now, Bishop reflects on her remarkable life and looks towards the future with The Third Gilmore Girl. She shares some of her greatest stories and the life lessons she’s learned on her journey.

Always engaging, never boring
Revisado: 03-23-25
Much like Miss Bishop herself, this memoir is a romp. I’ve been lucky enough to have watched Miss Bishop throughout her career. I saw her in A Chorus Line on Broadway, and have loved her ever since. Her memoir does not disappoint.

Newly widowed and the father of an infant son, Henry VIII realizes he must marry again to ensure the royal succession. Forty-six, overweight, and suffering from gout, Henry is soundly rejected by some of Europe's most eligible princesses. Anna of Kleve, from a small German duchy, is 24 and has a secret she is desperate to keep hidden. Henry requests her portrait from his court painter, who portrays her from the most flattering perspective. Henry is entranced by the lovely image, only to be bitterly surprised when Anna arrives in England and he sees her in the flesh.

Annie Marlow has been through the worst. Rocked by tragedy, she heads to the one place that makes her happy: Oceanside in the Pacific Northwest, the destination of many family vacations when Annie was a teenager. Once there, Annie begins to restore her broken spirit, thanks, in part, to the folks she meets: a local painter, Keaton, whose large frame is equal to his big heart - and who helps Annie fix up her rental cottage by the sea; Mellie, the reclusive, prickly landlord Annie is determined to befriend; and Britt, a teenager with a terrible secret.

Macomber doesn’t hold up to narration
Revisado: 01-08-23
When I’ve read Macomber, I’ve found her books pleasant, easy, and harmless, a good antidote to poor health or sadness. Listening, I realized I’d just speed read, ignoring poor sentence structure and plot problems. Those things are impossible to avoid at the slower pace of Audible. Such a waste of time.

In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms.

Don't Miss This
Revisado: 05-13-20
"Becoming" is a smart, compassionate book written and narrated by a smart, compassionate woman. Michelle Obama has lived--is leading--an extraordinary life. In "Becoming" she takes a clear-eyed look at her past and tells the truth with her trademark good sense and honesty. Always interesting and willing to look deeply into her experiences, she never sinks to gossip but is careful to let us see the humanity and foibles of people she loves as well as those she...doesn't.
I am not often a fan of author narration. Sometimes a writer is also a trained voice artist, and that works for me. But usually, I do not enjoy a writer/narrator. Two different skills. In this case, however, Ms Obama's narration is compelling. Her voice is naturally warm and inviting. She clearly worked with a talented producer who skillfully helped her maintain a perfect pace and pleasant tone throughout the book.
I have listened to this twice, and will listen again. There is no higher praise from me than that.

Damn Near Perfect
Revisado: 11-04-19
This heartbreaking, heart opening, life and love affirming one-act monologue is perhaps my favorite audio work ever. Brenda Pressley is a narrating genius. Chisa Hutchinson is a brilliant writer. Together they have made an hour of listening bliss. Thank you, Audible, for commissioning this work. It's wonderful.

Charming
Revisado: 06-05-17
This absolutely charming story is filled with romance, fairy-tale settings, and humor. I listened to the narration--an excellent enhancement to the written word--while I was knitting, and found myself laughing aloud and sometimes losing my place in the pattern because I got so caught up in the adventures of the most romantic librarian ever chronicled. Immediately bought another of Jenny Coglan's books, and added the narration. I can't wait to begin.
