A lesbian awakening wrapped in a bad whodunit

Revisado: 02-08-18

It starts out with verve, with a tough female detective investigating serial murders. But it degenerates into a cheezy love story about her new lover, a rookie female detective partnered with her.
I won’t be reading any more books by Gerri Hill

OK but a disappointing follow up to Book 1

Revisado: 12-11-17

Since I quite enjoyed Siegel's first book in the series, I had high expectations for this one. I found that he sticks quite closely to his plot formula, which by the way, is quite interesting. But most of the characters are the same as in Book 1, so don't expect complex personalities.

Unless Siegel departs from his formula for characters and plot, I don't think I'll read the next one.

Entertaining but preachy

Revisado: 11-07-17

Robin Cook write novels that provide entertainment but are also denunciations of problems in the medical profession. His characters are not well rounded humans but symbols of good, evil, incomoetence, jealousy, like in a morality play.

One thing I did enjoy was the detail in rendering medical procedures.

Another enjoyable aspect was the suspense. It is well bult and keeps your interest.

But that was probably the last Cook novel I will,download.

Outstanding and extremely original novel

Revisado: 09-05-17

Written by a man, this novel in the voice of a woman is extraordinary. A successful lawyer in her sixties looks back on her activist youth in the late 1960s, writing a memoir about it and researching and finding new shocking things about her life and loves. It's engrossing, never flagging, bittersweet and very intelligent.

Very disappointing

Revisado: 03-08-17

Would you try another book from Joy Ellis and/or Henrietta Meire?

I'm afraid this is the last book by Joy Ellis I'll download

Would you be willing to try another one of Henrietta Meire’s performances?

Her performance is a bit sophomoric, I'll stay away

Any additional comments?

The plot is quite interesting, but characters are shallow and dialogue is typical of "airport books". It's OK to pass the time while waiting for your plane but don't expect a good crime novel in the great British tradition

Maybe not Winslow's best but still very good

Revisado: 02-28-17

Where does The Gentlemen's Hour rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Compared to other Winslow novels, this is middling. But that only means it's very good

Who was your favorite character and why?

Obviously Boone Daniels, the main character: laid out, surfer dude, ex-cop and able private eye

Any additional comments?

The plot is intricate and interesting.Holter Graham's narration is outstanding, with multiple voices, both male and female, as well as several accents.

An airport book but a fun airport book

Revisado: 02-26-17

I picked this up after watching the OJ series on Netflix, where Iearned that Marcia Clark went on to write thrillers. The plot is intricate and interesting, as well as some of the characters. One reviewer said it's a chick lit whodunit. Yes, there is that. But I did enjoy this book and would recommend for anyone interested in a fast paced and interesting procedural and cop thriller.

Outstanding Roman military adventure

Revisado: 01-10-17

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone interested in Roman military history and adventure fiction,

Have you listened to any of Jonathan Keeble’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I am a great fan of Jonathan Keeble. He is a very talented narrator, maintaining an agreeable and steady voice throughout, as well as performing different voices credibly.

Any additional comments?

Having read many of Scarrow's novels, I must say this is one of the best.
