Homicide Detective Max Rupert never fully accepted his wife's death, even when he believed that a reckless hit and run driver was the cause. But when he learns that in fact she was murdered, he devotes himself to hunting down her killers. Most of his life he had thought of himself as a decent man. But now he's so consumed with thoughts of retribution that he questions whether he will take that last step and enact the vengeance he longs for.

What happened to this series?
Revisado: 04-23-25
I loved the first book in this series—but the main character disappeared, replaced by a the Rupert brothers. I have found the later titles much too dark, the characters unsympathetic, and the situations uninteresting. I keep reading in hopes that young man from the first book will reappear—but I probably won’t read much more from this author.

Wallace Stegner's uniquely American classic centers on Lyman Ward, a noted historian who relates a fictionalized biography of his pioneer grandparents at a time when he has become estranged from his own family. Through a combination of research, memory, and exaggeration, Ward voices ideas concerning the relationship between history and the present, art and life, parents and children, and husbands and wives.

Quit with 14 hours to go
Revisado: 05-28-21
My husband LOVED this book, and it had great reviews on Audible (plus was a prize-winner!), so I gave it a try, and kept listening for about 8 hours, even as I asked myself, "Why?" and struggled to slog through what seemed like a pointless, often dull, narration. In the end, technology decided for me: this title froze in my Audible app, and even removing and downloading again didn't help. In fact, it refused to download completely the second time. After some fruitless searching in Audible's "Help" module, I decided to take the hint and returned the book. Maybe I'll check it out from the library one day and see if "real" reading makes a difference. Meantime, this one was not for me.

From the hero whistleblower of the infamous Theranos scam, Thicker than Water is a look at never-before-revealed details behind closed doors at the company, revealing a cautionary tale of corporate bullying, gaslighting, ego, and wealth running amok in Silicon Valley. Tyler Shultz had been in the workforce for less than a year when he emailed Elizabeth Holmes, his employer and the CEO and founder of Theranos, with concerns that the company’s lab practices were faulty, ignored quality control, and were potentially dangerous to patients.

Good story that needed an editor
Revisado: 09-27-20
This was a fascinating story that needed more editorial guidance. There was too much painful detail about the author’s privileged upbringing, revealing his naïveté. But still a really good listen.

Our Miss Brooks was a hit on radio from the outset; within eight months of its launch as a regular series, the show landed several honors, including four for Eve Arden, who won polls in four individual publications of the time. Arden had actually been the third choice to play the title role. Harry Ackerman, at the time CBS's West Coast director of programming, wanted Shirley Booth for the part.

Laughter is such a great thing!

Great Comedy that Stands the Test of Time!
Revisado: 08-06-18
"Our Miss Brooks: The Ultimate Collection" is a wonderful find. Still laugh-out-loud funny, Eve Arden, Gale Gordon, and the rest of the crew bring life to the inspired comedy writing. Much of the first section is marred, unfortunately, by uneven sound quality and repetitious versions of the episodes. Past that, however, there is plenty of material to keep you laughing through the dullest commute. Highly recommended!
