Historia
Julie Chan, a supermarket cashier with nothing to lose, finds herself thrust into the glamorous yet perilous world of her late twin sister, Chloe VanHuusen, a popular influencer. Separated at a young age, the identical twins were polar opposites and rarely spoke, except for one viral video that Chloe initiated (Finding My Long-Lost Twin And Buying Her A House #EMOTIONAL). When Julie discovers Chloe’s lifeless body under mysterious circumstances, she seizes the chance to live the life she’s always envied.

Could Not Finish
Revisado: 05-01-25
This book sounded interesting but I was disappointed. The story drug along and then it just got weird. Very, very weird. I tried to power through but eventually gave up. Could not finish.

Historia
Rufus Leung Gresham, future Earl of Greshambury and son of a former Hong Kong supermodel has a problem: the legendary Gresham Trust has been depleted by decades of profligate spending, and behind all the magazine covers and Instagram stories manors and yachts lies nothing more than a gargantuan mountain of debt. The only solution, put forth by Rufus’s scheming mother, is for Rufus to attend his sister’s wedding at a luxury eco-resort, a veritable who’s-who of sultans, barons, and oligarchs, and seduce a woman with money.

At times, overdone
Revisado: 12-12-24
The story started out to be a bit confusing and full of fluff, but ended up interesting. One of the voices - Annabel - was so loud and harsh I gave me a headache.

Historia
Keru and Nate are college sweethearts who marry despite their family differences: Keru’s strict, Chinese, immigrant parents demand perfection (“To use a dishwasher is to admit defeat,” says her father), while Nate’s rural, white, working-class family distrusts his intellectual ambitions and his “foreign” wife. Some years into their marriage, the couple invites their families on vacation.

Historia
When Marilyn Kleinman is caught making out with the rabbi’s son in front of the whole congregation, her parents ship her off to her great-aunt Ada for the summer. If anyone can save their daughter’s reputation, it’s Philadelphia’s strict premier matchmaker. Either that or Marilyn can kiss college goodbye. To Marilyn’s surprise, Ada’s not the humorless septuagenarian her mother described. Not with that platinum-blonde hair, Hermès scarf, and Cadillac convertible. She’s sharp, straight-talking, takes her job very seriously, and abides by her own rules…mostly.

I found this book to be a very tedious listen. It was repetitive in tying in the first book. Very dark and just not interesting. Disappointing!

The residents of the exclusive cul-de-sac on Alton Road are entangled in a web of secrets and scandal utterly unknown to the outside world, and even to each other.

The real danger lies within their own block and nothing—and no one—is ever as it seems.

Disappointing and hard to finish
Revisado: 07-25-23
This had the bones for a good story, but I just couldn't get past the odd formal-speech writing - who talks like that? It was like a thesaurus was used for a $10 word in every sentence. Very distracting from the story. The extensive voice of the teenager made me feel like I was listening to a YA book. Sorry to have used a credit.

Historia
It’s been a minute—or five years—since Jordan Vargas last saw his college friends, and twenty-eight years since their graduation from Berkeley when their adult lives officially began. Now Jordan, Jordy, Naomi, Craig, and Marielle find themselves at the brink of a new decade, with all the responsibilities of adulthood, yet no closer to having their lives figured out. Though not for a lack of trying. Over the years they’ve reunited in Big Sur to honor a decades-old pact to throw each other living “funerals,” celebrations to remind themselves that life is worth living.

This is a sweet, sometimes sad story. Such great narration by the author. Especially special for me as I have lived in Boring, OR!

Disappointing
Revisado: 06-23-23
I purchase this book after reading good reviews. I found it to be filled with inane and boring detail, a predictable and weak storyline, and no like-able characters. The copy of the closing song scene from Dirty Dancing was too much. I made myself finish the book.
