Muriel F. Jones

Way above my head. Temporarily suspending my efforts. also have the paper book. Lovve the author’s expertise on talk shows.

I could not keep up with his names of sources, his philosophies. Did not buy into his criticism of online social media. I continue to admire his thinking but found his book rambling and too autobiographical in spots.

Esssentially a cult type book.

Revisado: 11-26-24

Many Biblical references are questionable. Writing is elementary. May be useful to many, but not in synch with my personal world/spiritual views.

“… in 100 pages should NOT have implied to me that it was written for audience not highly trained in science!”

Revisado: 10-21-24

I own both the paper and the audible copies. Very few illustrations in the paper version. Basic knowledge of scientific terminology would have been useful. I believe there are key insights to be had, -the final pages of the last chapter did sink in for me!-, but the other scientific processes, particularly chemical ones, were lost on me without persistent Googling. I have many scientific timelines and reference materials but had hoped the book would stand alone. I was disappointed.

Romantic Wannabes

Revisado: 07-13-24

Loved the plot, the bits of geology, inner thoughts. Lyrical writing. I found the audible well-done but the British accent a bit too thick for me to follow with ease. Beside that one difficulty, I highly recommend the book.

Terrific writing, wonderful descriptions.

Revisado: 07-05-24

The story itself was a little goofy for my taste. But the author’s ability to express things is amazing!

Power of MUSIC.

Revisado: 07-05-24

Music expresses what we cannot, & that the main character intuited who needs what in a medium beyond words!

Old fan of Kingsolver.

Revisado: 10-27-23

As always, Kingsolver delivered masterful story-telling. I found the topic sad, of course. The audible reader was very spot on with the character.

Essential quotes became tedious in print. The Audible version helped me though the book.

Great information and thoughts about an important concept. Favoritism was referenced and discussed by a scholar. I began reading doubting favoritism but ended with many logical pieces of background information and reasoning.

Childlike pronography effort

Revisado: 08-17-23

I thought the beginning of this story very funny. Eventually, however, the sensuality (by then, still mostly what was going on inside the characters’ heads) became predominant and reminded me of teenage talk. I finally decided not to read any more. I rarely give up on a book.

Poignant and revealing!

Revisado: 07-19-23

I’ve never been a follower of The Royal Family, but this personal story really grabbed me, particularly in the audible edition in the Prince’s voice. So touching and insightful. I highly recommend it.
