Historia
Beauregard "Bug" Montage is an honest mechanic, a loving husband, and a hardworking dad. Bug knows there's no future in the man he used to be: Known from the hills of North Carolina to the beaches of Florida as the best wheelman on the East Coast. He thought he'd left all that behind him, but as his carefully built new life begins to crumble, he finds himself drawn inexorably back into a world of blood and bullets. When a smooth-talking former associate comes calling with a can't-miss jewelry store heist, Bug feels he has no choice but to get back in the driver's seat.

I love this author. He makes the car chase scene “hold your breath exciting”! This book is so well written. The characters will live in my head rent free forever. Great job Mr. Cosby 😉🤩

I loved this story. It was short but it packed a big punch. The narrator pulled me into the story and I felt everything the characters were feeling. It was moving, sad, funny and all that! Great job Audible!

Historia
Academy Award nominee Samuel L. Jackson ( Pulp Fiction, Star Wars films), fresh off the success of his uproarious, Audie-nominated performance of the mock children’s book Go the F**k to Sleep, delivers a swaggering, darkly-humored rendering of Chester Himes’ classic first novel.

OMG Maya, this book was BORING.......
Revisado: 08-22-13
Would you try another book from Maya Banks and/or Rebecca Estrella?
I've read Maya Banks before and was sorely disappointed but I would try her novels again.
Has Seducing Simon turned you off from other books in this genre?
not yet
How could the performance have been better?
the narrater was very monotone and didn't help the story at all. maybe she found it as boring as I did and that's how she sounded...... bored /c:
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
it was mercifully short.
Any additional comments?
Just don't do it. Maya has so many other books that are really good.

In 1998, in the small East Texas city of Sloan, he abducted, raped, and strangled a popular high-school cheerleader.

Girsham did it to me again!
Revisado: 08-09-13
What did you love best about The Confession?
I'm a sucker for the underdog and Girsham delivers a solid plot that kept me guessing until the end. It didn't go where I expected it to but I loved it all the same.
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
"Yes" just when I thought I had it figured out, the plot made a left instead of a right and I followed right along with it.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Oh yes!!!!!!
Any additional comments?
I keep saying I'm not a fan of John Girsham but every book I read (listen to), I love! I'm ready to admit it...... I'M A FAN!!!!!!!!!!!! I love story's about the criminal justice system and Girsham show's all the flaws and manages NOT to make me hate it. He's talented there's no denying it :-)

Revisado: 08-01-12
Would you try another book from Carolly Erickson and/or Davina Porter?
No. I'd heard great thing about this author and I do love historical fiction but this book was a little long winded and boring at times.
Would you recommend Josephine to your friends? Why or why not?
No I wouldn't. I expected more but got less /c:
Any additional comments?
I'm apprehensive about buying another audio book by this author. The reviews sang her praises but I just don't see why. I thought that Josephine would a great character from history to fictionalize but, not so much.

Maybe it was the Shenanigans gift certificate that put her over the edge. When children's librarian and self-professed nice girl Jane Jameson is fired by her beastly boss and handed $25 in potato skins instead of a severance check, she goes on a bender that's sure to become Half Moon Hollow legend. On her way home, she's mistaken for a deer, shot, and left for dead.

Jane Jameson is hilarious!
Revisado: 08-01-12
Would you consider the audio edition of Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs to be better than the print version?
I've never read the print version but the audio version was great in most part due to the narrator.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Jane of course! Jane is funny, smart and the saddest version of a "scary vampire" I've ever read. this was the first in the series and I won't stop until I've listened to them all.
What does Amanda Ronconi bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Because of Amanda Ronconi I listened to the entire series. and I bought other audio books from this author simply because she was the narrator. She is grrrreat!
Any additional comments?
I dare someone to listen to this series and NOT laugh out loud. Go on, I DARE ya! :c)
