Looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything.

Finally gave up on this one. Thought story was different. Found the different voices of the characters got on my nerves. One of the few books, I actually stopped listening to. One out of over 110 books is not bad. Would not recommend

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 8
A sweeping historical novel set in the 1888 dawn of professional baseball when Blacks were banned, umpires were routinely beaten, and the game shifted from a collegial pastime of gentlemen to a nasty fight to the death by gritty Irish immigrants. Del Leonard Jones, author of The Cremation of Sam McGee, is trailblazing a new flavor of historical novel built upon the beloved ballads that have withstood time.

Interesting look into the Umpire's world
Revisado: 11-16-20
Remembering Paul Harvey's sign off "Now you know the rest of the story." Umpire and Narrator Paul Brewster provided the reader with an inside look at umpiring during the beginning days of professional baseball. We were able to see what effect Casey's strike out had not only on himself but also on the lives of Paul Brewster, Nellie Bly, The Judge and the Catcher . As he tells the story, we are able to see the tight bond and friendship that develops between his mentor, the Judge, his relationship with Nellie Bly and the Catcher. The abuse that Umpires took in those days makes you wonder why they put up with it or why anyone would of wanted to umpire in those days. Well done, Del.

Martin Short takes you on a rich, hilarious, and occasionally heartbreaking ride through his life and times, from his early years in Toronto as a member of the fabled improvisational troupe Second City to the all-American comic big time of Saturday Night Live and memorable roles in movies such as ¡Three Amigos! and Father of the Bride.

A real story about two people meant for each other
Revisado: 08-08-15
I liked the fact I felt I was listening to an actor who loved his wife and family and kept true to himself
Highly recommend!

The legendary creator of iconic television programs All in the Family, Sanford and Son, Maude, Good Times, The Jeffersons, and Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, Norman Lear remade our television culture - while leading a life of unparalleled political, civic, and social involvement. Sharing the wealth of Lear's 90 years, Even This I Get to Experience is a memoir as touching and remarkable as the life he has led.

From the celebrated author of The Secret Life of Bees, a magnificent novel about two unforgettable American women. Writing at the height of her narrative and imaginative gifts, Sue Monk Kidd presents a masterpiece of hope, daring, the quest for freedom, and the desire to have a voice in the world - and it is now the newest Oprah’s Book Club 2.0 selection. Hetty “Handful” Grimke, an urban slave in early nineteenth century Charleston, yearns for life beyond the suffocating walls that enclose her within the wealthy Grimke household. The Grimke’s daughter, Sarah, has known from an early age she is meant to do something large in the world, but she is hemmed in by the limits imposed on women.
