Storytime

Revisado: 12-19-24

It’s like having a favorite story read to you by your favorite person. HOWEVER, I thought I was purchasing the full book. Very disappointed I used a credit on a 2 hour book and that the unabridged version isn’t on here.

Should've stopped after the 1st half.

What would have made Does the Noise in My Head Bother You? better?

Surely Tyler's got more interesting stories from his adult years than how many girls and drugs he did? Maybe it got less raunchy further into the second half... I don't know, I had to turn it off. It was such a drastic change from the first half of funny, not raunchy stories from his childhood and teen years when Aerosmith began.

Has Does the Noise in My Head Bother You? turned you off from other books in this genre?

Yes. I have Sammy Hagar's Red in my wish list but I'm reluctant to buy it.

Which character – as performed by Jeremy Davidson – was your favorite?

?? Tyler's THE character.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Does the Noise in My Head Bother You??

I'd have to take a look at the second half to figure out why it's SO disconnected from the first half which I loved.

Any additional comments?

If you want to hear a lot of bragging about how many drugs and girls Tyler did, you'll like it. The second half anyway. The first half is humorous and endearing.

Great Historical Fiction.

What did you love best about The Union Quilters?

How well the author intertwined a quilt, a quilting circle and their soldier husbands perspectives into a story with no ends left untied.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Gerta was my favorite. She was most interesting being the scandal of the whole circle and the town yet compassionate to those fighting for the country. And she was a paid employee; unheard of in those times.

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

I haven't heard her before but I thought she did an excellent job with characters whether they were male or possessing an accent.

If you could take any character from The Union Quilters out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Gerta. Seems she'd have a plethora of stories to share.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Hatsumomo got the boot!

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

Romance novel enthusiasts might enjoy this type of fluff. I prefer intriguing characters in intriguing situations.

What was most disappointing about Susanna Kearsley’s story?

Utterly boring yawnfest. Couldn't force myself to finish the 1st half.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I couldn't understand most of what

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Winter Sea?

Descriptions of interiors. Scenes with her agent and her baby.

What an interesting lady!

Revisado: 07-14-11

Beryl can be a bit long-winded at times (its like listening patiently to a senior tell an intrigiung tale) and the narrator occasionally has a faint but audible nasal whistle, but other than those two minor things, I loved this story. Excellent writing, excellent narration. Highly recommended.

What every parent is thinking...

Revisado: 07-14-11

but cannot say at bedtime with their kids. Of course this isnt to be read to the kids... Its for the parents after the kids are FINALLY the f^*^ asleep. Not recommended for non-cursers. I find it hilarious and have listened to it numerous times. Ah... What memories of my night-owl daughter!

Master of imagery?

Revisado: 07-13-11

My cousin recommended L'Amour to me so I really wanted to like this. But it's like L'Amour made a movie of it first and frantically wrote down what was happening as it was playing. Too fast paced to have any imagery. I often had to rewind to catch up with what was happening. Thumbs down. Did not finish.

So dry I needed a drink of water.

I don't know how Twain became famous. I prefer authors who can paint a scene with words. Quickly gave up on this one.
