Historia
The scene in the West Village studio appears to be classic crime-of-passion: two wineglasses by the bed, music playing, and a young sculptor named Ariel Byrd with the back of her head bashed in. But when Dallas tracks down the wealthy Upper East Side woman who called 911, the details don’t add up. Gwen Huffman is wealthy, elegant, comforted by her handsome fiancé as she sheds tears over the trauma of finding the body - but why did it take an hour to report it? And why is she lying about little things?

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
I don't know. The book offended me on so many levels. I couldn't finish it.
Has The Dangerous Type turned you off from other books in this genre?
No. It wasn't the genre. I know homosexuality exists and I have no wish to tell anyone how to live their life. I just would like to know before I pick out a book that the main character is homosexual. I can handle the side-kicks just not the main character. I'm not interested in reading or listening to explicit details about homosexuality.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Didn't listen to enough of it to be able to say.
What character would you cut from The Dangerous Type?
The main character.

Historia
Be careful what you wish for! When Buddy Pancake and his drinking buddies stumble across the Wish List website, they jokingly post their "impossible" wishes. Imagine their surprise when, one by one, the wishes start coming true! But Buddy and his pals neglected to read the fine print explaining the price they must pay for the wishes they've been granted. Wish List is a compelling, nail-biting, laugh-out-loud thriller in the tradition of Saving Rachel.

To make matters worse, Saddam Hussein is close to entering the nuclear arms race - something Israel has vowed to stop.

Only listened to this one to keep up .
Revisado: 08-21-12
What did you love best about Separation of Power?
The story was solid and exciting. However, I really disliked Mitch's girl friend. She came across as very immature.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Separation of Power?
The killing Clark.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
This narrator did not really feel this character. He was too frantic, too excitable. His narration made it hard for me to finish the book. He should probably do comedies or lighter fair. Mitch Rapp is a dark, dangerous man and the narrator did not capture this at all.

If you could sum up Nice Girls Don't Bite Their Neighbors in three words, what would they be?
Funny, enjoyable and easy to listen to.
What other book might you compare Nice Girls Don't Bite Their Neighbors to and why?
The Janet Evanavitch books. Same sense of humor. Same since of independence in the women. I really enjoy this series and plan to read them all as they become available.

Historia
With more than a dash of glamour and serious helpings of style, the witty and courageous Phryne Fisher returns. In 1928 St Kilda’s streets hang with fairy lights. Magic shows, marionettes, tea dances, tango competitions, life-saving demonstrations, lantern shows, and picnics on the beach are all part of the Flower Parade. And who else should be chosen to be Queen of the Flowers but the gorgeous, charming and terribly fashionable Hon Phryne Fisher?

Fun read
Revisado: 08-19-12
Where does Queen of the Flowers rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I listen and read to relax. This book is great for easy listening and enjoying a story. Ms. Fisher is what many of us women secretly wish we were. Confident, totally independent, apologising to no one for who she is.
What did you like best about this story?
It's dependability, and humor. Even discussing a very real and grusome situation it was still enjoyable and never became maudelin.
Have you listened to any of Stephanie Daniel’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
She is great as Phrynie Fisher. I don't believe I have heard any other recordings of her work.

Historia
When we last left the mighty wizard detective Harry Dresden, he wasn't doing well. In fact, he had been murdered by an unknown assassin. But being dead doesn't stop him when his friends are in danger. Except now he has nobody, and no magic to help him. And there are also several dark spirits roaming the Chicago shadows who owe Harry some payback of their own. To save his friends - and his own soul - Harry will have to pull off the ultimate trick without any magic....

Did Jim Butcher really write this book?
Revisado: 08-18-12
Very disapointing. The witty sarcastic, funny character of Dresden turned in to a whinny, introspective, person that I didn't care anything about. There was very little of the snap and banter between the chacters that you usually see in these books. The change in narrator's really didn't help. While this narrator is probably very good, he is not Harry Dresden. He was not able to deliver any of the lines with the snap, and punch of Dresden.

Many people had reasons for killing Galen, a big Greek with too much money and too great a liking for young black girls. But there are complications - like a drug addict, a disappearing suspect, and the fact that Coffin Ed's daughter is up to her neck in the whole explosive business.

If you could sum up The Real Cool Killers in three words, what would they be?
Enjoyable, haunting, true
What did you like best about this story?
The ability to truthfully characterize people in the black community before the 80's. The characterizations remind me of my childhood.
What about Dion Graham’s performance did you like?
Really like his voice. Captures what I feel are the inner essences of the characters.
