Historia
From 1783, when German immigrant John Jacob Astor first arrived in the United States, until 2009, when Brooke Astor’s son, Anthony Marshall, was convicted of defrauding his elderly mother, the Astor name occupied a unique place in American society. The family fortune, first made by a beaver trapping business that grew into an empire, was then amplified by holdings in Manhattan real estate. Over the ensuing generations, Astors ruled Gilded Age New York society and inserted themselves into political and cultural life, but also suffered the most famous loss on the Titanic.

Historia
Jill and Derick knew a normal life wasn’t possible for them. As a star on the popular TLC reality show 19 Kids and Counting, Jill grew up in front of viewers who were fascinated by her family’s way of life. She was the responsible, second daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle’s nineteen kids; always with a baby on her hip and happy to wear the modest ankle-length dresses with throat-high necklines.

Such Bravery in Telling Her Story
Revisado: 05-14-24
I was always interested in the show. It was a fascinating look into a family immersed in cult teachings. My heart went out to them, especially the innocent children. This story was intense, sad, inspirational and deeply moving. It was so brave of her to tell her side of the story. Her husband is a Saint. I was captivated from beginning to end. God bless you Jill in your journey. I’m so happy you found a good therapist.

Still enjoying this series. Even at Book 4 I’m still hooked. Non-stop intrigue, action and a wild imaginative world. Can’t wait to hear what happens next!

Average & Predictable
Revisado: 03-16-24
It was okay. Hated the husband. He was weak and cowardly. Hated the daughter. Super annoying teenager. Didn’t care for Hannah either. She was careless and reckless. So not recommending.

Long, but totally worth it
Revisado: 02-10-24
It’s like sitting down with Babs and having a long intimate conversation with just the two of you. Absolutely loved it. Would have loved more musical interludes. What struck me the most was that even after proving that she can act, write, produce and direct a hit movie she still had male studio executives telling her they didn’t think she could handle it. All the struggles and challenges of being a woman in the entertainment business. Also, why aren’t there pictures? There should be a PDF attached with images.

Interesting and suspenseful. Pretty good for a free book. After this I think I’ve had my fill of mentally I’ll women and the men who try to save them.

Surprised I Liked it So Much
Revisado: 05-30-23
It was very interesting story, would make a great Netflix show. It was both fascinating and horrifying and I liked how each chapter was told from a different viewpoint. Recommended.

Fun and fast paced, I was surprised at how much I liked this story. People are calling it “dark” and “macabre” but I don’t see it. It’s a fun and interesting romp through the fantasy genre.

Historia
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

A Study in Female Asperger Syndrome or Not?

She’s a female Sheldon Cooper also dealing with the frustrations of being a smart woman in the 1950s - 60s. But I still enjoyed the story. Highly recommended.
