Historia
Retired publisher Susan Ryeland is living the good life. She is running a small hotel on a Greek island with her long-term boyfriend Andreas. It should be everything she's always wanted. But is it? She's exhausted with the responsibilities of making everything work on an island where nothing ever does, and truth be told, she's beginning to miss London. And then the Trehearnes come to stay. The strange story they tell about an unfortunate murder that took place on the same day and in the same hotel in which their daughter was married fascinates Susan and piques her editor's instincts.

Bit too unpleasant for me and hard to follow who’s who.
Revisado: 02-03-24
A) I found it very hard to remember who was who and I’m generally good at that. I sort of ended up not really caring about what was happening. Some characters just weren’t well defined enough and kept coming and going, quite possibly this wouldn’t be an issue if reading a paper copy.
B) more importantly to me, the reason for 1 star, is that I found the storyline and some of the characters a bit disturbing. It’s definitely not dark and twisted by todays standards but does peek into the dark and sordid corners of life that I’d rather leave alone and I found it a bit triggering.

Great but abridged?
Revisado: 02-27-23
So I think these are abridged? I could be wrong but Emma seemed to move along at a great clip. I liked the narration but hate anything abridged. And not just cutting out the “he says” but seems like major parts of the story, at least of Emma if my memory is correct (and I’ve read all Jane Austen books at least 10 times each).

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Not great
Revisado: 12-30-22
So I loved the Martian and kept hoping this one might be a third as good. I found it interesting; I enjoyed the in depth science info (and I’m very ignorant on that entire subject) but the plot line just isn’t that great or maybe it’s about 25 pages long and the rest is science info / filler. I won’t say save your money bc there are way worse books out there (and you’ll learn something I’m sure) but maybe just re-read the Martian instead.

Historia
Colonel Joe Bishop made a promise and he's going to keep it; taking the captured alien starship Flying Dutchman back out. He doesn't agree when the UN decides to send almost 70 elite Special Operations troops, hotshot pilots, and scientists with him; the mission is a fool's errand he doesn't expect to ever return from. At least, this time, the Earth is safe, right? Not so much.

Enjoyable but repetitive
Revisado: 12-12-22
I enjoyed this, mostly bc of the narrator. It ended up feeling quite repetitive after a while, especially some of the dialog. I would have enjoyed more character development among the secondary characters but there was zero among any of the characters. Still enjoyable though if you enjoyed the first book. C
