On an island off the coast of Ireland, guests gather to celebrate two people joining their lives together as one. The groom: handsome and charming, a rising television star. The bride: smart and ambitious, a magazine publisher. It’s a wedding for a magazine or for a celebrity: the designer dress, the remote location, the luxe party favors, the boutique whiskey. The cell phone service may be spotty and the waves may be rough, but every detail has been expertly planned and will be expertly executed.

I was looking for an easy summer listen, and this seems intriguing. Wow, totally blew me away how tightly knit this whodunit is. And the multi cast narrator’s are truly fantastic.

I thought I knew a thing or two about math, I thought I'd be interested and engaged. However, he lost me at Pythagorean and I slipped into a blissful slumber... night night.

In 1975, during the fall of Saigon, Phuc Tran immigrates to America along with his family. By sheer chance, they land in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, a small town where the Trans struggle to assimilate into their new life. In this coming-of-age memoir told through the themes of great books such as The Metamorphosis, The Scarlet Letter, The Iliad, and more, Tran navigates the push and pull of finding and accepting himself despite the challenges of immigration, feelings of isolation, and teenage rebellion.

Phuc, you don't know me but I graduated Carlisle High School 4 years before you (and was thrilled to listen in when your older cousin Tuan makes a inauspicious cameo in the book!). You might have had Dr. Fishman as your English teacher. If so, it shows. You're a damn good writer and I was freaking thrilled the first word of the book is "F***." You know how to command language, how to be human, how to be vulnerable. Congrats, this is one of the best memoirs of the decade (so far) and will endure for a long time. Go, Phuc, go!

Hear singer, songwriter, and actor Nick Jonas lend his voice to the history of one of his favorite subjects: baseball. This unique story is written specifically to help you drift off, with no clear beginning, middle, or end, so you don’t need to follow the details too closely. In it, you’ll hear Nick Jonas describe how Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams reached legendary status, and how they shaped the three components of a perfect swin.

Revisado: 04-21-20
Hi there, I couldn't name a Jonas Brothers song but this story is such a great nighttime drift off sort of thing and Nick Jonas does have an exceptional voice. I wish I could say I loved the whole thing but I fell asleep probably 4 minutes in, so tonight I will set my sleeptimer to 10 minutes. New bedtime ritual!

Jesse Israel was a successful music executive running his own label when debilitating anxiety and panic attacks forced him to step back and seek help. When he found meditation, it inspired him to switch gears in a big way. He founded The Big Quiet, a mass meditation movement that gathers thousands of people for large-scale moments of quiet around the world (including for Oprah’s 2020 Vision Tour with WW).

James Dommek, Jr., an Alaska Native writer and musician, sheds new light on a real-life mystery that pits Native American folklore against the US justice system. In the vast Alaskan Arctic, legend has it there once lived a mythic tribe—Iñukuns—that only existed in rumors and whispers. This changed forever when an actor-turned-fugitive, Teddy Kyle Smith, had an encounter that brought Iñukuns from myth to reality. Smith was an aspiring actor with a promising career until it all came quickly crashing down with a gunshot, a manhunt, bloodshed, and other frightful events.

I've listened to a ton of true crime stories and podcasts and this one had me from "this is Audible." I am truly immersed, wish I didn't have to work today as I would spend the whole day walking the dog to finish this. It's awesome.

Groundbreaking, riveting, and expertly told, The Breakthrough is the story of the game-changing scientific discoveries that unleash our natural ability to recognize and defeat cancer, as told through the experiences of the patients, physicians, and cancer immunotherapy researchers who are on the front lines. This is the incredible true story of the race to find a cure, a dispatch from the life-changing world of modern oncological science, and a brave new chapter in medical history.

Surprisingly gripping
Revisado: 01-21-19
Take a scientific problem as vexing as cancer, come at it with an age-old yet controversial approach, and turn it over to a talented writer--one who uses simple metaphors to convey the complex, and who sprinkles in references to Jerry Garcia and Cassablanca just to keep you on your toes. The result? A fascinating medical tale that is still taking shape.

In this groundbreaking audiobook, a unique interplay of narrative and image, Mann's preoccupation with family, race, mortality, and the storied landscape of the American South are revealed as almost genetically predetermined, written into her DNA by the family history that precedes her.

Man, oh, man! Mann is awesome!
Revisado: 01-12-16
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
An absolute recommendation for artists, southerners, friends of southerners, people who like art, and dog-lovers and those who know them. Oh, and people who are fascinated by death. And those who love them, too.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Hold Still?
Sally Mann's in-laws in Connecticut. What an incredible (and incredibly sad) slice of American life.
What three words best describe Sally Mann’s performance?
Authentic. Thoughtful. Earnest.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Tons -- each time Mann opens up decades, generations, centuries of family history, she taps into each of our lives. The bonds that tie family, that test us and break us apart, are universal. Sally Mann is unflinching in her exploration of her own history and what made her the artist and thinker she is today.
