Historia
Joe Goldberg is no stranger to hiding bodies. In the past 10 years, this 30-something has buried four of them, collateral damage in his quest for love. Now he's heading west to Los Angeles, the city of second chances, determined to put his past behind him. In Hollywood, Joe blends in effortlessly with the other young upstarts. He eats guac, works in a bookstore, and flirts with a journalist neighbor. But while others seem fixated on their own reflections, Joe can't stop looking over his shoulder.

Imagine a Britain stripped of democracy, a world of the not-too-distant future in which freedom has been surrendered willingly to a totalitarian regime which rose to power by exploiting the people's worst fears and most damning weaknesses.

A fabulous distopian tale
Revisado: 10-26-15
What did you love best about V for Vendetta?
The story is so much more in depth than the movie, understandably. The narrator had a great voice for this piece and did an excellent job.
What did you like best about this story?
There was not a dull moment in the book. I loved getting more detail than the movie. I have not read the graphic novels.
Which scene was your favorite?
When Evey is removed from her prison cell.
If you could take any character from V for Vendetta out to dinner, who would it be and why?
I would love to take Evey out to dinner. The transformation she underwent was amazing and I would love to talk to her at length.

Historia
From one of Outside magazine's "Literary All-Stars" comes the thrilling true tale of the fastest boat ride ever, down the entire length of the Colorado River and through the Grand Canyon, during the legendary flood of 1983. In the spring of 1983, massive flooding along the length of the Colorado River confronted a team of engineers at the Glen Canyon Dam with an unprecedented emergency that may have resulted in the most catastrophic dam failure in history.

Historia
Delta Force—the US Army’s most elite top-secret strike force. They dominate the modern battlefield, but you won’t hear about their heroics on CNN. No headlines can reveal their top-secret missions, and no book has ever taken readers inside—until now. Here, a founding member of Delta Force takes us behind the veil of secrecy and into the action to reveal the never-before-told story of First Special Forces Operational Detachment-D (Delta Force).

A good listen.
Revisado: 08-18-15
Where does Inside Delta Force rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This book is in the top 50% of books i have listened to.
What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?
There were some great stories about the formation and selection of Delta Force.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No
Any additional comments?
I found Haney's view of Special Forces was pretty dim. Having been in a SF Unit, I can not see why he would/could ever have this view. Some of the most professional people I have ever had the pleasure to meet and privilege to work with.

Historia
Beck is everything Joe has ever wanted: she's gorgeous, tough, razor-smart, and sexy beyond his wildest dreams. Joe needs to have her, and he'll stop at nothing to do so. As he begins to insinuate himself into her life - her friendships, her email, her phone - she can’t resist her feelings for a guy who seems custom-made for her. So when her boyfriend, Benji, mysteriously disappears, Beck and Joe fall into a tumultuous affair. But there's more to Beck than her oh-so-perfect façade.

Loved this book! Obsession knows no bounds!
Revisado: 08-18-15
What made the experience of listening to You the most enjoyable?
I loved the internal dialogue the main character had with himself his ability to rationalize anything. Joe is a true psychopath! I thought I knew some stalker-ish, obsessive people; boy, was I wrong!
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
Yes, each twist and turn in the story was weirder than the first. How far would this go? A lot of Joe's actions were unexpected and shocking.
Which character – as performed by Santino Fontana – was your favorite?
Joe, although I laughed when he did Peach, because I know some superficial narcissistic people just like her.
Any additional comments?
I could not wait to hear the next chapter and hated getting out of the car when I got to work. Through the day I would think "how long until I can hear more?" I really loved this book. The story was great and Santino Fontana was excellent as Joe! He really brought the book to life and I will look for others he has done.
I think this was my favorite audible book so far!

Turn back the clocks! Your sweet child has morphed into a teen. And it's no longer just a messy bedroom or an attitude with a capital "A" causing concern.

What if your son becomes increasingly withdrawn...Or your child is being bullied online? Would you know what to do? You could read a whole book on teen psychology - but who has the time!

Great book for things you haven't realized, yet...
Revisado: 08-11-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would certainly recommend this book to parents. The scenarios presented are real and dealt with in a great way; disarming the teen, defusing the situation, and making it possible to actually communicate with the aliens living in your kids body. If you've listened to or read other parenting books, some of this will be familiar. There are a lot of stories to share with your kids to start discussions and point out errors in judgement that others have made, and the consequences from those actions. I loved this book and will refer back to it until our alien becomes a human again! ;)
Any additional comments?
P.S. The narrator was great.

Why we think it’s a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand’s done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared....

Historia
From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the previous American record was 109), but it has declined to verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head.

Where does American Sniper rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is certainly in the top 5 audio books. Most of the other audio books I have listened to were not novels, so hard to compare.
What was one of the most memorable moments of American Sniper?
When Chris is trying to save a Marine.
What does John Pruden bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
His voice was a lot like I would have expected Chris's voice to be.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
They just did make a movie of this book...

As parents, you may wonder if your words mean anything at all. If so, take heart: all research indicates that the most significant influence on the life of a teenager comes from his or her parents.

Historia
Everything we now know about the universe - from the behavior of quarks to the birth of galaxies - has come from people who've been willing to ponder the unanswerable. And with the advent of modern science, great minds have turned to testing and experimentation rather than mere thought as a way of grappling with some of the universe's most vexing dilemmas. So what is our latest picture of some of the most inexplicable features of the universe? What still remains to be uncovered and explored by today's scientists?
