The audiobook is so good! Extremely funny in most places, also sad parts, too

Revisado: 11-29-23

This was an amazing audiobook! I really liked how Leslie was talking in her own words, instead of just reading it. She is an outstanding comic, and a lot of the book was like being at a really funny show. There are also some very sad points which are very emotional. Leslie is being very real as she explains her life. She says it the way it is. I liked her before from SNL and some of the other things I’ve seen, but now I have a whole new level of respect for her and her talent.

Amazing

Revisado: 02-09-23

I’m glad I bought the audiobook, but as I kept listening, I realized that I needed to get a written version as well so that I could highlight areas that I wanted to circle back to. There is a lot of very solid information in Goggin’s new book. One of the best things about this audiobook is when David‘s mom tells her story. I have a lot of respect for her.

Angela has got Grit

Revisado: 01-29-23

I like that Angela “walks the walk” by reading her book instead of having someone else do it. Her research is interesting and thorough.

What would have made A Summary of How to Be Rich by J. Paul Getty better?

This is a brief biography of J. Paul Getty. Not about book content. Just read Wikipedia - it's all there.

Has A Summary of How to Be Rich by J. Paul Getty turned you off from other books in this genre?

No

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Right off the bat, he says that J. Paul Getty was born in 1982 and died in 1976. Obviously a typo or J. Paul had a time machine.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from A Summary of How to Be Rich by J. Paul Getty?

I would have created a summary of the book "How to be Rich." - as the name implies.

Excellent Audiobook

What did you love best about Hustle?

The writing is personable and helps to illustrate why we need to hustle now more than ever. The message is given in everyday language - the author doesn't mince words.

Who was your favorite character and why?

The author is the character that I can best identify with

Have you listened to any of Michael Pauley’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to anything by Michael before, but he gave an excellent narration. I can really get into what he is saying and how he says it. He's a perfect fit for this type of material.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Hearing about the author's father passing away - sad to hear about that.

Any additional comments?

Keep it up Jesse. You've got what it takes.

Great Book / Silly Music / Why Abridged?

Revisado: 03-06-14

Would you listen to Liar's Poker again? Why?

Only once with this abridged version. Audible should offer an unabridged version and without the distracting "lounge" music that happens now and then in the book. You have to really concentrate on what the narrator is saying over the music - doesn't anybody proof-listen this stuff before it's released? The content of the unabridged book is excellent and I like the author/narrator.

What did you like best about this story?

The story

What three words best describe Michael Lewis’s voice?

Educated, Qualified, Coherent

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Liar's Poker
