The reader made it impossible to follow the story. I really tried to like this book, but just couldn’t understand the reader. I decided to return the book to audible .

Very compelling

Revisado: 10-06-21

I wasn’t sure I wanted to read this book when it was chosen by my back ok club.
I couldn’t put it down. Fascinating in depth coverage of 911 and the people involved in person. It covered events that I was unaware of or have forgotten. Everyone in the USA should read this book.

Part serious part entertainment

I enjoyed spending a few hours in Watters’ World! Serious commentary sprinkled with humor made for a good read that covers a broad section of the political landscape

Tedious follow up to his first novel

Revisado: 11-05-18

I found this book to drag on with tedious predictable characters. The reading was very distracting from the story. The same character often had a different sounding voice making it hard to follow. There was nothing about this novel that made we want to continue listening. I honestly couldn't wait for it to be over so that I could listen to something else.

Detective Ballard is a great character

Revisado: 10-01-18

Another great detective novel by Michael Connelly. I’m looking forward to more books with her in it. Lots of twist and turns. As usual Connelly weaves it all together in Ana enjoyable tale that you can’t put down.
In addition Katherine Moennig’s narration brought life to the story.

Too abridged to be helpful

Revisado: 07-17-16

They need to add more information for this to really be helpful to some one going to Bejing. I got more info from Wikipedia . It did remind me to check vaccines which is good.

A must read

Revisado: 05-28-16

I've read many books about Nazi atrocities. This one covers Stalin and Russian brutality toward their citizens. The story is harsh. It is told from the viewpoint of a brave young girl trying to survive in a Siberian camp with her mother and brother. The characters are rich. The grit it to to survived makes a compelling story. It is also a story to remind us that we as a nation need to do what we can to prevent this from happening to other groups.

A perfect course

Revisado: 04-11-16

Having been to London and read many books set in London and England. I had some familiarity. This course puts it all together in an any easy to follow timeline . Professor Bucholz is wonderful. I felt like I was listening to a novel rather than a history course. I recommend this to anyone who wants to improve their knowledge of London.
