Narrator is awful
Revisado: 01-18-21
The narrator struggled through this book. His skills in the English language had no sophistication, and his struggle with the language makes the story choppy and at times incomprehensible.

1740s France and England - the age of hedonism and enlightenment. Renard, Duke of Roxton, is wealthy beyond measure. Arrogant and self assured, his heart remains his own. Optimistic and headstrong, Antonia Moran is determined to flee the Court of Versailles with the Duke's unwitting assistance. Roxton is an unlikely savior - arrogant, promiscuous, and sinister. Antonia's unquestioning belief in him may just be his salvation, and her undoing.

The background ocean noise ruins it
Revisado: 03-09-18
Would you try another book from Mayu Kimura and/or Natalie Burman?
Nothing new here in the art of meditation and the ocean nice in the background is so loud it drowns out the demure voice of the narrator. While trying to meditate your ears get overwhelmed by noise and the concentration is lost immediately.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Loving Kindness Meditation?
Cut the background water noise.

East London, 1888 - a city apart. A place of shadow and light where thieves, whores, and dreamers mingle, where children play in the cobbled streets by day and a killer stalks at night, where bright hopes meet the darkest truths. Here, by the whispering waters of the Thames, Fiona Finnegan, a worker in a tea factory, hopes to own a shop one day, together with her lifelong love, Joe Bristow, a costermonger's son. With nothing but their faith in each other to spur them on, Fiona and Joe struggle, save, and sacrifice to achieve their dreams.

In An Irish Country Courtship, after less than a year, young Barry Laverty, M.B., is settling in to the village, with only a few months to go before he becomes a full partner in the practice. He's looking forward to becoming a fixture in the community, until an unexpected romantic reversal gives him second thoughts. Will he truly be happy tending to routine coughs and colds for the rest of his career? After all, even when a more challenging case comes along, like a rare tropical disease, all he can do is pass it on to a qualified specialist or big-city hospital.

Would you try another book from Patrick Taylor and/or John Keating?
I don't think so. While this was a very pleasant book, the story unfolded extremely slowly. I became impatient with hit and bored, though I eventually finished it.

Rebecca Mead was a young woman in an English coastal town when she first read George Eliot's Middlemarch,regarded by many as the greatest English novel. After gaining admission to Oxford and moving to the United States to become a journalist, through several love affairs, then marriage, and family, Mead read and reread Middlemarch. The novel, which Virginia Woolf famously described as "one of the few English novels written for grown-up people," offered Mead something that modern life and literature did not.

Tough to follow
Revisado: 10-18-14
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Someone more familiar with My Life in Middlemarch and someone who studies 18th century British Literature.
Has My Life in Middlemarch turned you off from other books in this genre?
No, I keep an open mind.
What about Kate Reading’s performance did you like?
It's hard to read a book for hours. This was excellently narrated.
Any additional comments?
The story is very hard to follow. I hart to start it over 3 times and then gave up.

Building on the premises of Power Thoughts and Living Beyond Your Emotions, Joyce Meyer examines the tremendous power of words. - which are the vehicles that convey our thoughts and emotions - and provides a series of guidelines for making sure that our talk is constructive, healthy, healing and used to good results. In a "Dictionary of God's Word" at the end of the book, Joyce provides dozens of scripture verses, arranged by topic, that she recommends reading and saying out loud as one way of using and claiming healing words.
