Historia
Celeste Jones has plans for a perfect summer with her boyfriend (and hopefully soon-to-be fiancé) - until he dumps her to be with the woman he’s had on the side for months. Heartbroken and furious, Celeste resolves to move on. Finding the one can be tricky, and Celeste's sister, Jenna, is determined to make sure she gets it right this time around. Not that Jenna’s an expert. She’s still trying to sort out her own love life. But if both sisters listen to their hearts, eventually, they’re bound to discover that life - and love - is good at the beach.

I found the characters too shallow and the best parts were at the end. Sad really the writer and main character had a lot of promise but it was not developed.

Historia
Alice, the youngest of three Monroe sisters, still holds out hope that the uneasy relationship with her two sisters can be mended, an improbable wish since they live in different parts of the world. After her grandmother’s funeral, Alice returns home to Chicago and her high-powered career but thoughts of Hideaway Bay and the house her grandmother left to the three sisters are never far from her mind. When it seems that her career comes at too great a price, namely her personal life, Alice heads back to Hideaway Bay to start over again.

Too many people and popping back and forth past vs present. Too much to recall and then Junior died in book one and book 2. Not good

Historia
In 2007 chef Grant Achatz seemingly had it made. He had been named one of the best new chefs in America by Food & Wine in 2002, received the James Beard Foundation Rising Star Chef of the Year Award in 2003, and in 2005 he and Nick Kokonas opened the conceptually radical restaurant Alinea, which was named Best Restaurant in America by Gourmet magazine. Then, Achatz was diagnosed with stage IV squamous cell carcinoma - tongue cancer.

I heard about this book from a friend who has just been diagnosed with the same cancer. He said the culinary aspect was very interesting and the facts about the disease were stark but helpful. I just finished listening to the Audible version and will definitely be listening again. The cuisine aspects were inspiring and Chef’s healing journey was the happy ending I hoped for. There was so much depth to this book that it is hard to convey. Just read /listen to it. It is well worth your time. Thanks

A Must Read: Thought Provoking & Inspirational
Revisado: 02-25-21
This book should be on the must-read list for all of our high school students. It opened my adult (parent of a HS Sophomore) and made me cry, agonize, laugh until I cried, and hang on every scary moment. Every emotion was awakened. I am better for having listened to this story. I hope you will listen and share with your ‘posse’ of friends and family. Enjoy & enjoy the re-awakening it will likely inspire!

Historia
For those who want to know that their life has significance, that their choices matter, and that they can start a chain reaction in our world - this missional book is for you. Never Settle is a tangible reminder that every choice in your day is crackling with God’s redemptive power - you, yes you, are called to be a part of what God is doing in the world. Don’t settle for a lukewarm Christian life. Never Settle: Choices, Chain Reactions, and the Way Out of Lukewarminess explores a familiar passage in Revelation 3 where Jesus is warning the church in Laodicea.

This book is so very timely to our current culture and cultural challenges, yet it reaches back to the ancient times. Greg did a tremendous job with the Story and magnificent job reading it to us. I will listen to this many times to glean all of the goodness from its existence.

Riley Kennedy’s emails keep getting crossed with her male colleague, Kennedy Riley. The infuriating man forwards them along with his annoying commentary and unsolicited advice. At least she never has to see him in person, since they work in different locations…until they come face to face at the office holiday party.

Simply Delightful
Revisado: 08-12-20
I read a very scathing review just before I listened to this story and, while I already owned the book, I almost didn’t listen. But I read the summary of the story and pressed play! It was just what I needed. In this time of self-quarantine and Covid worries .... or any time you just need a sweet romance, THIS is the book. Nice storyline with humor, deep sadness, and a love that.... (I don’t want to ruin the story). Enjoy.

Historia
Eleanor, the charming manager of a cozy tea shop, enjoys the transportive ritual of making a cup of Masala Chai tea, reminisces about the tea's origins, and delights in the beauty of her quaint English village during the holidays. Bedtime stories are narrated by the world's most celebrated voices and written with no beginning, middle, or end so you don't stay up to hear what happens next. They're interesting enough to give your mind something to focus on, but delivered in a way that encourages sleep.

Wonderful story
Revisado: 08-06-20
This is my favorite story for helping me decompress and fall asleep. The reader has a lovely and soothing voice and the story takes us through a lovely village and then into a cozy tea shop. I don’t make it to the end very often as I have already relaxed and drifted off into a wonderful sleep.

This was a light, fun and well narrated story. It would be great for 7 and up most likely. If you like ‘the good guy always wins’ stories; this is a great one. I am in my 50s and just needed a short, feel-good story and thoroughly enjoyed this!

Life changing
Revisado: 07-17-19
Not only is the story compelling and fairly easy to follow (it took a bit to connect, but well with the effort), but it is transformational! I am only 2 days into implementing the 5am club 20/20/20 methodology, but it’s been a very long time since I “bothered” to get up early, so happy for the change and new possibilities it may bring. Thank you, Mr Sharma, for yet another amazing and inspiring- and action-provoking book.
