The three Blue sisters are exceptional—and exceptionally different. Avery, the eldest and a recovering heroin addict turned strait-laced lawyer, lives with her wife in London; Bonnie, a former boxer, works as a bouncer in Los Angeles following a devastating defeat; and Lucky, the youngest, models in Paris while trying to outrun her hard-partying ways. They also had a fourth sister, Nicky, whose unexpected death left the family reeling. A year later, as they each navigate grief, addiction and ambition, they find they must return to New York to stop the sale of the apartment they were raised in.

Worst Narrator Ever
Revisado: 12-30-24
This narrator’s style was torturous. It sounded like a robot reading with constant odd pauses. I sped up to 1.45 to try to make it tolerable. It was still awful.

Kim Lord is an avant garde figure, feminist icon, and agent provocateur in the LA art scene. Her groundbreaking new exhibition, Still Lives, is comprised of self-portraits depicting herself as famous murdered women - the Black Dahlia, Chandra Levy, Nicole Brown Simpson, among many others - and the works are as compelling as they are disturbing, implicating a culture that is too accustomed to violence against women.

Second fail from Reese
Revisado: 08-12-18
This is our second try of books from Reese Witherspoon’s book lists. Both were awful! So disappointed. Save yourself the time and boredom and skip this.

Throughout her childhood, Elizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff frequently visited Rosemary Kennedy, President John F. Kennedy's sister. Why? Koehler-Pentacoff's aunt, Sister Paulus Koehler, a Franciscan nun, was Rosemary's devoted caregiver at St. Coletta in Jefferson, Wisconsin, for 15 years and her driver and travel companion for over 30.

Not really about Rosemary, but about the nun and her family.

Most Annoying Narrator Ever
Revisado: 11-10-15
The subject matter of the book would be pretty good if I didn't have to listen to the most annoying narrator in the history of time. This is the story of a nun from Wisconsin, her niece, and Rosemary Kennedy from Boston. Audible, can you find a narrator who doesn't sound exactly like the perfect stereotype of those who discriminated against the Irish immigrants? Can you find a narrator who can at least pronounce the Wisconsin town that figures prominently in the book - Oconomowoc? Because this narrator butchers it over and over and over and over. Ugh.

Great Listen
Revisado: 11-10-15
I decided to listen to this book because I knew nothing about Scientology and wanted a basic understanding but didn't want to be bored by doctrine or theology. I was turned off by reports in the media about her "bashing" Tom Cruise, but gave it a listen anyway. I've never seen King of Queens and just had basic knowledge of Remini. It was a great book. She doesn't bash others so much as tell her story and the parts about Cruise had to be told to understand where she was coming from. I learned a lot and admire Remini after listening. Go Leah!

A middle-aged man returns to his childhood home to attend a funeral. He is drawn to the farm at the end of the road, where, when he was seven, he encountered a most remarkable girl, Lettie Hempstock. Forty years earlier, a man committed suicide in a stolen car at this farm at the end of the road. Like a fuse on a firework, his death lit a touchpaper and resonated in unimaginable ways. The darkness was unleashed, something scary and thoroughly incomprehensible to a little boy. And Lettie - magical, comforting, wise beyond her years - promised to protect him, no matter what.

Not What I Was Expecting
Revisado: 08-18-13
This story wasn't at all what I was expecting. Its fanciful and almost sci-fi. I was expecting a mystery of some kind, but not the impossible. I enjoyed it, but didn't love it.

They were the original power couple - outlandishly rich, impossibly attractive, and endlessly fascinating. Now, in this rare, behind-the-scenes portrait of the Kennedys in their final year together, New York Times best-selling biographer Christopher Andersen shows us a side of JFK and Jackie we’ve never seen before. Tender, intimate, complex, and, at times, explosive, theirs is a love story unlike any other - filled with secrets, scandals, and bombshells that could never be fully revealed…until now.

Nothing New Here
Revisado: 08-18-13
The Kennedys are always interesting and fascinating, and I seem to enjoy listening to the same stories over and over. While there are some new details here, there are not massive revelations. The narrator is fine, but his attempts at a "breathy" voice for Jackie Kennedy are a bit comical. This was a fun read, but it was fluff - fun fluff, but fluff.
