Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Prince Harry is an outstanding, courageous, generous, heroic, patriotic, truthful, citizen, husband, brother, father, and a friend to his friends. Outstanding.

Historia
Louisiana, 1965, and an unlikely, inevitable couple. Sammy Teague and Betsy Duplechain have grown up right next door to each other but in different worlds, with expectations and circumstances that have always kept them separate. Now, as a powerful September hurricane bears down on the Louisiana coast, those worlds will come face to face. The choices they make will send them on an odyssey north and into the fall of 1965, as the brutal and envious sheriff Percy Parris pursues them.

This book is truly amazing . I don't believe I've read anything closer to capturing that certain period of time - including the south Louisiana accents - the traditions, the loves, fears, food, fun, biases and blessings of a past era, people, and the places - as told here . Unexpectedly enjoyable and satisfying .

Best Narrator of Series
Revisado: 05-10-22
Yes to this story as narrated by Tom Sellwood. I loved his voice, pacing intonation, etc. ... e.g. "ROW !" :)
Those negative narrator reviews made me skeptical about buying this one. I am supremely happy I ignored them and believe this narrator is the best by far ... I'm now listening to the 6th book in this series . Wish entire series was told by this guy .

Historia
When he falls ill on his way home from school, 15-year-old Michael Berg is rescued by Hanna, a woman twice his age. In time she becomes his lover--then she inexplicably disappears. When Michael next sees her, he is a young law student, and she is on trial for a hideous crime. As he watches her refuse to defend her innocence, Michael gradually realizes that Hanna may be guarding a secret she considers more shameful than murder.

Just finished, I'm incapable of doing this book's review justice ,the story's too good, it's too soon, must reflect post Audible listen. Melancholy anyone ? No, ignore last statement . I think you'll thank me if you only 🎶 listen while a tale is well told.

Historia
Seven years have passed, and Thomas hasn't forgotten. He hasn't forgotten the blue of his dad's eyes either, or the tickle of beard on his cheek as they hugged goodbye for the very last time. Now, with his 13th birthday rapidly approaching, Thomas' search for magic is about to take a radical and unexpected turn. At an out-of-the-way shop filled with dusty leather books, a strange little man with gold-flecked eyes offers him an ancient text called The Book of Sorrows. The price is high and the rules are strict, but there's no way Thomas can resist the chance to look inside.

I was reading this book and somehow didn't quite finish so time passed... Anyway, I started relistening to young Wildus at book's beginning. It could be my state of mind, a change in seasons, or whatever, I found myself liking this recording of story even more. I had to slow the narration speed down a bit during initial portion of story and that seemed to helped too. Highly recommend for family listening, or indidivualy - young boys/girls, on up to "young" old Aunties, Nanas , and Popsies.

Revisado: 12-07-21
I'm at chapter 18 and would enjoy this story except that the volume goes from almost silent to too loud so I am constantly adjusting the volume up and down. I may have to stop listening to this story because of that - even if I wished to continue - don't want all this bothering over volume levels.

Historia
As it was in Anna Karenina, Madame Bovary, and Othello, so it is in life. Most forms of private vice and public evil are kindled and sustained by lies. Acts of adultery and other personal betrayals, financial fraud, government corruption - even murder and genocide - generally require an additional moral defect: a willingness to lie. In Lying, bestselling author and neuroscientist Sam Harris argues that we can radically simplify our lives and improve society by merely telling the truth in situations where others often lie.

But this is only the beginning of his discoveries.

Excellent Narration

This wasn't the book I expected , however, I enjoyed it immensely. I believe this book should be under genre ' young adults ' . That said, I am many years past being a young adult and thoroughly enjoyed this story and will buy the next book in series when it becomes available .

Narrator's performance is insulting
Revisado: 12-26-20
An OK novel that could have been much more if characters were given a decent southern accent- a nuanced, subtle, and intelligent voice instead of this annoying, dumb downed, overemoted , version of one.
