In the summer of 1938, Layla Beck's father, a United States senator, cuts off her allowance and demands that she find employment on the Federal Writers' Project, a New Deal jobs program. Within days Layla finds herself far from her accustomed social whirl, assigned to cover the history of the remote mill town of Macedonia, West Virginia, and destined, in her opinion, to go completely mad with boredom.

Loved this audibook - the narration was excellent!
Revisado: 10-29-15
Would you listen to The Truth According to Us again? Why?
I'm not one to read a book more than once generally so probably not, but I enjoyed it enough that if I were to choose one to listen to a second time, this would be it.
What did you like best about this story?
You came to care about the characters and the mystery was engrossing. I loved the perspectives of the child and the outsider.
Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No, but I would again.

Anthony Spencer is egotistical, proud of being a self-made business success at the peak of his game, even though the cost of winning was painfully high. A cerebral hemorrhage leaves Tony comatose in a hospital ICU. He 'awakens' to find himself in a surreal world, a 'living' landscape that mirrors dimensions of his earthly life, from the beautiful to the corrupt.

If you liked The Shack...
Revisado: 02-25-13
Would you listen to Cross Roads again? Why?
Yes, I would listen to it again - probably will even though I usually don't do a book twice. The story, like that in The Shack, is clearly fiction - but it makes you think, which is the point. Again, it communicates God's desire for us to trust Him knowing He loves us beyond what we can imagine. Again, it is a story of pain redeemed. The ending is not really a surprise, but it is uplifting nonetheless. What you really learn is more about the nature of God.
What other book might you compare Cross Roads to and why?
The Shack, but what else would you expect?
What does Roger Mueller bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
It felt less like reading and more like someone telling me the story.
If you could take any character from Cross Roads out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Who wouldn't take Jesus? But on the other hand, Maggie seems like she'd be an awful lot of fun!
Any additional comments?
I stayed up until 2 am listening - I couldn't stop!
