It's a fresh take on history

Revisado: 02-27-24

Very well written. Even though we know how the ware ended, it's amazing story on how we became a country.

Loved every minute of it

A little much politics. This is a tiny minor complaint. The reading was excellent. It flowed very well. I would recommend it.

Utterly, mind dumbingly boring.

Revisado: 01-10-23

It was not that interesting and I had wanted it to be great. It did have a few explosive statements for sure, but the period in between those was really slow and a struggle to get through. His childhood recollections went on for way too long. I kept thinking to myself, that's fine what you did in school, but could we move it along to when you were an adult now? I wish he could have just touched briefly upon the time he was a child and his school days and got to the heart of other things. The storyline dragged on for too long and should have been cut in half.

Not enjoyable, painful to listen to.

Revisado: 09-04-22

I love Simon St James which makes this review so hard. The two lead characters were dull and shallow. As much as I tried I couldn't find anything to make them likeable. There are few things more boring than dialog between teenagers and/or children and there was far too much of it in this book. Was this supposed to be a young adult novel? I got so tired of the teenage twang in their voices and language. This is a usually excellent author. This story is such a departure from her usual style.

Predictable, sappy.

Revisado: 07-31-21

I kept hoping it would get better. It started with promise. Halfthrough I became to dislike the characters because they were so cliche and not in a good way. By the last chapter, I was annoyed for wasting a perfectly good audible credit.

A truly loving friendship

Revisado: 03-26-21

I don't normally take the time to write out a full review. This book was excellent, a true masterpiece. It is a story written about a caring, deep friendship between two people who took an realistic look at whatever came their way and dealt with it using honesty, intelligence and humor. May all of us be blessed with a friend like this.

Paint Drying would be more Exciting

Revisado: 03-10-21

The concept of this book is intriguing. However the book is weighed down by meaningless details of mundane clutter. They should have cut the story in half and gotten to the meat of it. No organized thought found here. Ita poorly written.

Truly, the reader didn't need to know this much information about every detail of Andrea's life. Do we really need to know about house decorating, trips to the hairdresser, housecleaning practices and inside a bizarre deal between a husband and wife? There is too much information about Andrea, what she thought, felt, liked disliked, etc. James is nothing more than a side note instead of the main topic.

I kept thinking, ok, now we will get to the story right? But no, it never did. The story is not convincing. Its like click bate where a something catches your eye but when you click in it, the story has been expanded with so many ads after 5 minute you give up and loose interest in the story because they don't get to the point. This book is just like that.

Revisado: 02-05-21

This book was fun, colorful, insightful and a joy to read. I lived hearing the names of old favorites and getting a behind the scenes view of what went on. Bravo.
