Historia
It’s the opening night of The Manor, the newest and hottest luxury resort, and no expense, small or large, has been spared. The infinity pool sparkles; the “Manor Mule” cocktail (grapefruit, ginger, vodka, and a dash of CBD oil) is being poured with a heavy hand. Everyone is wearing linen.

Over the top for me.
Revisado: 07-07-24
This got quite a few eye rolls from me but I plugged along and got through it. The premise is supposed to make you think there is something otherworldly going on: The Birds! The Birds! It took away from what could have been an interesting story. Hard pass next time.

Historia
The Slight Edge is a way of thinking, a way of processing information that enables you to make the daily choices that will lead you to the success and happiness you desire. In this 8th anniversary edition you'll hear not only the life-changing concepts of the original book, but also learn what author Jeff Olson discovered as he continued along the slight edge path: the Secret to Happiness and the Ripple Effect.

I listened to this so you don’t have to. I am shocked at the number of 5 star reviews for this book. It can be summarized here: “take small, incremental steps every day and you will be successful.” You are welcome.
He repeats this same message over and over and over, ad nauseum. I listens at 1.5 speed and kept hoping, with each chapter there would be some new information.
Get Atomic Habits instead.

Historia
Jackie wants to be many things, but a martyr has never been one of them. She is an ex-emotional eater and mother of four, who has finally lost the weight she long yearned to be free of. In her new sharp-edged body, she goes by Jacqueline. But leaving her old self behind proves harder than she ever imagined. And while she believes she should be happier, misery still chases her, and motherhood threatens to subsume what little is left of her. Her only salve is her best friend Theresa, whose seemingly perfect life she desperately covets.

Interesting way to tell the story.
Revisado: 11-16-23
The first chapter is ridiculous. I almost stopped there. It seemed like some add on to increase the length adding nothing to the story. Where was the editor? Otherwise an interesting murder (not mystery) working backwards.

Historia
Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place. True, she still has gig jobs instead of a career, and the apartment where she’s lived since college still looks like she’s just moved in. But she’s got good friends, her bike, and her bicycling club in Philadelphia. She’s at peace with her plus-size body—at least, most of the time—and she’s on track to marry Mark Medoff, her childhood sweetheart, a man she met at the weight-loss camp that her perpetually dieting mother forced her to attend.

The narration made a mediocre story hard to listen to.
Revisado: 09-04-23
The narration was not only slow(I had to increase the speed), the cadence of the main character voice was so weird it made listening almost painful. If I had to do over, I’d pick another book and I will not pick any with this narrator. It may have been the direction she was given, but it was one of the worst I’ve heard.
The story was fairly predictable and I found it a bit odd that Weiner and her character put so much emphasis on explaining how bad it is to put so much emphasis on looks and yet her main character repeatedly remarks on Sebastian’s amazing body, muscles and abs.

Historia
Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

Really regretted this purchase.
Revisado: 10-08-22
I didn’t realize it would have spouseal abuse. Listening to the wife be gas lit and so unpowerful was painful to listen to. This is more like aYA novel. I was not interested in seeing what happened.
All of the filler about the bees was very interesting to me. If you’re into bees, this extra film material might be interesting to you, but it seems like the novel could probably be half as long without this extra information.

Revisado: 09-04-20
I thought this would be a lot more interesting. The story is told mostly from the POV of the 17 year old Alexa. Pretty immature 17 years old actually. I'm not that interested in reading about young love so much. The suspense would probably play well for a young unsophisticated audience.

Do not waste your money, time or credit

This was not worth my time. I found the main character to be annoying and didn’t really care about any of the characters. The writing is very flowery and overwrought. I thought it would be a light, fun read but I did not enjoy it.

A little too sugary for me.
Revisado: 03-12-20
I found myself rolling my eyes quite a bit. I did listen to the end but found it a little saccharine for me. If you want something super light with a nice bow on top at the end then it might be worth your while.

Light on story, heavy on sex. Just have your eyes open to what you are getting. This reader will NOT be watching the series.
