Historia
Lindsay Boxer is pregnant at last! But her work doesn't slow for a second. When millionaire Chaz Smith is mercilessly gunned down, she discovers that the murder weapon is linked to the deaths of four of San Francisco's most untouchable criminals. And it was taken from her own department's evidence locker. Anyone could be the killer - even her closest friends. Lindsay is called next to the most bizarre crime scene she's ever seen: two bodiless heads elaborately displayed in the garden of a world-famous actor....

Revisado: 10-05-12
What didn’t you like about January LaVoy’s performance?
Had I realized that Carolyn McCormick was not reading this book. I never would have purchased it. This reader is one of the worst. Everyone sounds the same. I did no finish it.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Anger that I wasted a credit on this book.
Any additional comments?
If you have listened to the previous books read by Carolyn McCormick, you will be disappointed.

Historia
Always Looking Up is a memoir of Michael's past decade, told through the critical themes of his life: work, politics, faith, and family. The book is a journey of self-discovery and reinvention, and a testament to the consolations that protect him from the ravages of Parkinson's. With the humor and wit that captivated fans in his first book, Lucky Man, Michael describes how he became a happier, more satisfied person by recognizing the gifts of everyday life.

If you could sum up Always Looking Up in three words, what would they be?
Inspiational,Sincere and Honest
What about Michael J. Fox???s performance did you like?
TRue an heartfelt.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
As a PD patiaent it gave me hope and comfort.
Any additional comments?
Having just been diaginosed with Parkinson's Disease, I was looking for some first hand information. I knew that MJ Foxx had started a foundation but until I read this book I did not know the amount of commitment he had put into finding a cure for PD. I think anyone with or without PD will be inspired by his story in this book and his first book: Lucky Man

Could hardly get past the narration
Revisado: 02-06-11
I almost stopped listening to this book because Susie Breck's narration was terrible. Luckily Dick Hill did a good part as the male narrator and the story was interesting enough to let me finish. That said there were parts of thte story that were just too far fetched. A police officer with a bullet wound that kept bleeding everytime she moved would hardly be allowed on active duty. For $4.95 special price it was ok but I won't waste credits on t he next books in hte series.

Historia
No One Would Listen is the exclusive story of the Harry Markopolos-lead investigation into Bernie Madoff and his $65 billion Ponzi scheme. While a lot has been written about Madoff's scam, few actually know how Markopolos and his team - affectionately called "the Fox Hounds" by Markopolos himself - uncovered what Madoff was doing years before this financial disaster reached its pinnacle. Unfortunately, no one listened, until the damage of the world's largest financial fraud ever was irreversible.

Spellbinding- A True life Thriller
Revisado: 03-26-10
This is a must read for anyone with a brokerage account or 401K. If you think the Security Exchange Commission is protecting you, think again. It also enforces the reality that if someone is promising investmet returns that seem to good to be true, thye probably are.

A Great Series

This is the final book in the series and it was fantastic! The reader did all of the unique character voices and they were "spot on" from one book the the next.
You don't havve to be a kid to enjoy Percy Jackson and his friends.

Good Bye James Patterson
Revisado: 01-06-09
James Patterson has jumped the shark with this one. Sadly it will be my last Alex Cross novel. The plot was preposterous and there were serious continuity problems in the story line. Several years ago I gave up on Patricia Cornwell for the same reason. When an author pumps out a crappy novel just because he or she knows the fans will buy anything that is when it is time to let it go.
Goodbye James, it was fun while it lasted!

King is Back
Revisado: 08-10-08
I used to read everything by King but have been dissapointed in the last few year with stories like the Colorado Kid and the Cell(which was the Stand in modern times)
Duma Key is like the older King novels that I used to love. John Slattery the reader brings these characters to life. I will be searching audible for some of the other books he reads.

If Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn had come of age at the end of the 20th century looking for an all-American adventure, they probably would've headed for Vegas. However, they'd have been hard-pressed to go on a wilder ride than the one taken by Tom Breitling and Tim Poster to the top of the famed Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino. Call them the Odds Couple.

A True Sucess Story

I watched the casino "reality" show and did not believe it. I wanted to know the real story and this book gave me that and more. It is a true sucess story but it is also a story about friendship.
Good narator.

ABSOLUTELY FACINATING!
Revisado: 06-14-08
This book is one of the best books I have listened to in years. Learn what is being done in the world of alternative energy and renewable fuel. Learn why and how we must reduce our dependence on foreign oil and fossil fuels.
If you are concerned with the high price of gas, heating fuel and other present day forms of energy I encourage you to read this book. It is loaded with hard facts and scientific evidence that lay out the reasons why we must reduce carbon emissions. I found it fascinating to discover all of the alternative energy sources that are being worked on and look forward to seeing some of these become a reality in the future.
Until I listened to this book I had never heard of the Cap and Trade proposal for carbon emissions but by the time I finished the book I realized its importance and was e-mailing my Senators to support this leglisation.
