Historia4 out of 5 stars 209
Besties Laurel and Paris are excited to welcome Cassie to the group. This year, the book club is all about fill-your-heart reads, an escape from the chaos of the everyday—running a business, raising a family, juggling a hundred to-dos. Even the dog is demanding (but the bestest boy). Since Laurel’s divorce, she feels like the Worst Mom Ever. Her skepticism of men may have scarred her vulnerable daughters. Cassie has an unfortunate habit of falling for ridiculous man-boys who dump her once she fixes them. Paris knows good men exist.

Really poor narration
Revisado: 07-19-24
The story had no surprises but I did listen to the whole thing. The narrative voices were off. The 8 year old sounded 5 and the 23 year old sounded 10. Really there were no adult voices or actions. Was this a YA book?

Molly Murphy always knew she'd end up in trouble, just as her mother predicted. So, when she commits murder in self-defense, she flees her cherished Ireland, under cover of a false identity, for the anonymous shores of late 19th-century America. When she arrives in New York and sees the welcoming promise of freedom in the Statue of Liberty, Molly begins to breathe easier. But when a man is murdered on Ellis Island, a man Molly was seen arguing with, she becomes a prime suspect in the crime.

I could not finish it
Revisado: 02-23-18
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Nothing, the story was just too riculous and the narration was juvenile and strident but she had nothing to work with. I have only read Bowen's Royal spy series and liked the entertainment value while I drive. This story made me angry that I had spent my money.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Not Bowen. This is so bad that I can't trust another of her books. Why does she let it be marketed?
Would you be willing to try another one of Nicola Barber’s performances?
no

Passing meets The House of Mirth in this "utterly captivating" (Kathleen Grissom, New York Times best-selling author of The Kitchen House) historical novel based on the true story of Anita Hemmings, the first black student to attend Vassar, who successfully passed as white - until she let herself grow too attached to the wrong person.

Terrible narration
Revisado: 04-19-17
Would you be willing to try another one of Janina Edwards’s performances?
Never. She ruined the story.
Any additional comments?
I liked the idea of historical fiction but it was superficial and school-girlish. Was it written for adult readers? Perhaps not.
