Historia
Hugh McDaniel lives in Queens, New York. He's a genius, and he has been struggling to pick one area to focus his life’s work on. His brother and best friend, Travis, is a marine officer. They get along very well, despite their differences. When aliens suddenly invade and destroy their entire culture, they are forced to struggle together in the ruins. At first they just tried to survive; to collect food, medicine, weapons, and to find other survivors. But now, they've set their sights higher: on resistance and reclaiming their planet from invaders.

Disappointing

story is deadly repitious
Revisado: 12-22-21
writer repeats ---- nearly everything a number of times to say ad nauseum is an understatement reader finds that the character is brilliant 5-6 time in first telling, that seems his manner of writing which stretches a short story into book length. To bad he had a kernel of an interesting plot

Historia
"I'm going to die a hundred years before I was born...." The handwritten note was in a dusty trunk that sat in a cave untouched for 150 years. What did the words mean? When journalist Ray Burton finds the trunk near the Arizona ghost town of Hollow Rock, his life changes in an instant. Something in the trunk shouldn’t be there. This begins a dangerous journey of discovery bordering on the impossible. A discovery that will affect the past, the present, and the future.

Historia
Cent can teleport. So can her parents, but they are the only people in the world who can. This is not as great as you might think it would be - sure, you can go shopping in Japan and then have tea in London, but it's hard to keep a secret like that. And there are people, dangerous people, who work for governments and have guns, who want to make you do just this one thing for them. And when you're a teenage girl things get even more complicated. High school. Boys. Global climate change, refugees, and genocide. Orbital mechanics.

Weak coming of age -- ponderous amounts
Revisado: 06-17-21
If you are looking for a DIY build a space-worthy habitat or construct a workable spacesuit ---ad nauseum --- boy is this book for you. After rather good use of the “jumping” phenonium in other books and coming of age features,…..here the 17 year old fights her way through serious space science while ducking and dodging “them”, going public (to parental chagrin), breaking up and making u and all the stuff a “normal teen” might

Historia
As a freelance writer, Jack Naile was used to getting an occasional letter from one of his readers, but when one of those readers sent him a clipping from a magazine, it would not only change his life, but could alter the course of history as well. The clipping had a photo, taken in Nevada in 1903, of a street scene, including a story with a sign, "Jack Naile - General Merchandise". The Nevada town's historian sent him a photo of the 19th century Jack Naile, what had seemed like an interesting coincidence immediately became much more bizarre.

Writers confuse smoking and reeling off values of curse words with tougheness and nearly blank the story out, the characters are committed to urinating, a lot, with occasional defecation for variety --- the story line suffers ...

as a non-historian enjoyed
Revisado: 01-20-21
Barrett Whitener's narration is superb, in my estimation, his interpretation sets the book apart. The material, for me, is very interesting, one professional review attacked some of McPherson points these I am not grounded in this area enough to know or rely care, since overall the essays are powerful and provoking enough to sustain interest and to inform on some facets, as Jessie James, Lincoln's challenges and difficulties.
The work is a series of essays some written for other purposes and at other times with a few new and some others updated.

On his 11th birthday, Jackson is nervous about moving up to middle school where he knows he'll be bullied by older kids, so he makes his wish, "I don't want to grow up!" When his 12th birthday rolls around, he discovers his wish came true: he's still 11, and he's starting fifth grade (again). At first, this is the perfect life.

Historia
Amos Decker witnesses a murder just outside FBI headquarters. A man shoots a woman execution style on a crowded sidewalk, then turns the gun on himself. Even with Decker's extraordinary powers of observation and deduction, the killing is baffling. Decker and his team can find absolutely no connection between the shooter - a family man with a successful consulting business - and his victim, a schoolteacher.

slow creeping lose of interwar
Revisado: 03-21-20
Really, how many time does the reader need to be told, retold and re-retold that Amos is a big man, a strikingly big man, seems it is very often, how he does not fit in a set of small cars, is really strong, and acts like someone with some part of the autism spectrum. These would be small distr4actions except that they are rattled out repeatedly the readers do a really nice job.
Oh well I finished it ---- finally.

Charles Frazier puts his remarkable gifts in the service of a lean, taut narrative while losing none of the transcendent prose, virtuosic storytelling, and insight into human nature that have made him one of the most beloved and celebrated authors in the world. Now, with his brilliant portrait of Luce, a young woman who inherits her murdered sister’s troubled twins, Frazier has created his most memorable heroine. Before the children, Luce was content with the reimbursements of the rich Appalachian landscape....
