Historia
A bestseller and award-winner in Veronica Raimo's native Italy, Lost on Me is an irreverent and hilariously inverted bildungsroman from one of the most celebrated young writers working today.

This book wasn’t bad or good, boring or exciting. It was just neutral. I felt the narrator was a little self absorbed about a life that was not very interesting.

The prose was beautiful and the characters all living in the same apartment building , yet isolated from hardships. It really gripped me.

Historia
The year is 1921. Lesley Hamlyn and her husband, Robert, a lawyer and war veteran, are living at Cassowary House on the Straits Settlement of Penang. When “Willie” Somerset Maugham, a famed writer and old friend of Robert’s, arrives for an extended visit with his secretary Gerald, the pair threatens a rift that could alter more lives than one. Maugham, one of the great novelists of his day, is beleaguered: Having long hidden his homosexuality, his unhappy and expensive marriage of convenience becomes unbearable after he loses his savings—and the freedom to travel with Gerald.

Historia
In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighborhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows. Chicken Hill was where Moshe and Chona Ludlow lived when Moshe integrated his theater and where Chona ran the Heaven & Earth Grocery Store.

This book was set in Pottstown. pa. In the thirties. It was very entertaining and I listened to it over a few days.
The dialogue was very snappy and characters all interesting and intertwined in the towns settings. I highly recommend it.

Historia
William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love him—so when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano in his freshman year of college, it’s as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable: Sylvie, the family’s dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all.

Truth Finds a Way
Revisado: 04-10-23
I think this is a story about finding the path of life in an entangled family that both loves and hurts each other. The character development is outstanding and as you listen you can feel the constrictions and expansions of each character’s heart. The author tackled big themes without getting sentimental.

Hate be gone!
Revisado: 03-19-23
This was an interesting story with a fiery 11 year old main character. The plot moved nicely and the characters drew you into their world. Some politicians might call this woke literature but I felt that the story was an honest portrayal of a small town in Mississippi.

Historia
It is three in the morning when Bobby Western plunges from the Coast Guard tender into darkness. His dive light illuminates the sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats, hair floating, eyes devoid of speculation. Missing from the site are the pilot’s bag, the plane’s black box, and the tenth passenger. A collateral witness to machinations that can only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit—by men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the bomb that melted glass and flesh in Hiroshima; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul.

Skill without Soul
Revisado: 12-21-22
This book is very well written. The story is incidental to Feelings, so although the story changes the feelings are paramount.
If I want a disjointed story I would read the news. I cannot recommend this book.

A story with great bones
Revisado: 02-16-20
I liked the overall premise of the story, 2 sisters who have made lifestyle choices that keep them apart.
The problem I have with the story are it’s supporting characters, they were good or evil and not fleshed out.
I liked the setting In Boston, she described the dark side in a realistic tone. It was definitely worth listening to, and don’t give up if it gets a little sluggish, it is provocative and depicts the problem of urban addiction.

Historia
On a night flight from London to Boston, Ted Severson meets the stunning and mysterious Lily Kintner. Sharing one too many martinis, the strangers begin to play a game of truth, revealing very intimate details about themselves. Ted talks about his marriage that's going stale and his wife, Miranda, who he's sure is cheating on him. Ted and his wife were a mismatch from the start - he the rich businessman, she the artistic free spirit - a contrast that once inflamed their passion but has now become a cliché.

Boring, Silly and Idiotic
Revisado: 07-13-17
What disappointed you about The Kind Worth Killing?
I listened to it in a long trip, and although it was compelling, it was so predictable there was absolutely no thinking involved. This is a mystery for idiots, much like watching a 60 minute TV show, entertaining but no substance.
Has The Kind Worth Killing turned you off from other books in this genre?
NO
Which scene was your favorite?
none
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
It took place in new England.
