Historia
When Iola Anne Poole, an old-timer on Hatteras Island, passes away in her bed at ninety-one, the struggling young mother in her rental cottage, Tandi Jo Reese, finds herself charged with the task of cleaning out the rambling Victorian house. Running from a messy, dangerous past, Tandi never expects to find more than a temporary hiding place within Iola's walls, but everything changes with the discovery of eighty-one carefully decorated prayer boxes, one for each year, dating from Iola's youth to her last days.

When their lives and personalities intersect, however, they discover that more than just a million-dollar dream home awaits them at the water’s edge.

Filled with wit and charm, The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck Lane is Kelly Harms's enchanting and heartfelt debut - a testament to the many, many ways love finds us, the power of a home-cooked meal, and just what it means to be lucky.

Simply charming and exciting
Revisado: 12-21-14
Would you listen to The Seven Sisters again? Why?
Yes. I find there will probably be more clues to pick up as the story will obviously progress. I can't wait for the sequels. Surely there are more to come. The story ended with a clue to the beginning of the next saga. There is still so much to see were the author is going with this. 5 more sisters, Pa-salts past and connection with the girls, SPOILER ALERT- 7th sister.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I don't think I had a favorite, they were all intriguing in their own way.
What about Emily Lucienne’s performance did you like?
Very well done. Love the way she is able to speak in the accents and languages that make the stories come alive.
If you could take any character from The Seven Sisters out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Pa-salt. What was he up to?
Any additional comments?
Please don't disappoint. Must know when the sequels can be expected. More, more, more.

Would you listen to Silver Wattle again? Why?
Yes, very entertaining. Often listen on commute back and forth to work. Helped to break away from the work mode.
Have you listened to any of Caroline Lee’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have never heard a book narrated by Caroline Lee I haven't liked, so far. Intrigued, by her ability to change accents to the occasion. Love it.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I highly recommend. Not a book you can stop listening to easily.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Firebird?
When Anne is reunited with her loved ones and gift received from Katherine. Anne's attitude and strength are most impressive and motivating.
Have you listened to any of Katherine Kellgren’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, have not heard Katherine Kellgren's other performances. Not sure that the deep tones of Katherines voice is good for the story but I got past that after a couple of chapters.

Historia
In Rachel Hore's A Place of Secrets, auction house appraiser Jude leaves London for her dream job at Starbrough Hall, an estate in the countryside, examining and pricing the manuscripts and instruments of an eighteenth-century astronomer. She is welcomed by Chantal Wickham and Jude feels close to the old woman at once: they have both lost their husbands. Hard times have forced the Wickham family to sell the astronomer's work, their land and with it, the timeworn tower that lies nearby. The tower was built as an observatory for astronomer Anthony Wickham and his daughter Esther, and it served as the setting for their most incredible discoveries.

What made the experience of listening to Down River the most enjoyable?
It was a book that both my husband and I were able to enjoy. Not girly-girly and not manly- manly, just right.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
We were traveling 10 hours from home one way, and we were able to listen to the 1st half on the way there and the second half on the way home. The only problem was that the MP3 lost its charge 3 chapters from the end of the book - my husband was horrified.

Historia
The story begins in 1962. On a rocky patch of the sun-drenched Italian coastline, a young innkeeper, chest-deep in daydreams, looks out over the incandescent waters of the Ligurian Sea and spies an apparition: a tall, thin woman, a vision in white, approaching him on a boat. She is an actress, he soon learns, an American starlet, and she is dying. And the story begins again today, half a world away, when an elderly Italian man shows up on a movie studio's back lot - searching for the mysterious woman he last saw at his hotel decades earlier.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Highly recommend, much easier to listen to than to read.

When De and Pasquale were about to be reunited after many years. I couldn't wait to hear the story.

No
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes I wanted to but of course couldn't. I came back to it as often as I was able. Then I was sad that there wasn't more when it was over.
Any additional comments?
