The Series Keeps Getting Better

Revisado: 03-10-25

First, Shazia Nicholls has narrated all of the books in the series and she is wonderful. I love listening to her soothing voice. Second, the book isn't woke and it isn't political. It is a wonderful cozy mystery.

I hope there's a fourth book. This book was so good. Zachary Quinto's narration is fabulous.

Wish It Was Longer

Revisado: 09-25-20

Snippets from Lewis Black and Kathleen Madigan's tour of Canada. Hilarious and worthy of laugh out loud responses. I just wish there was more.

Funny stories with heartfelt ones and historic moments. Mr. Rather tells them all with humility and emotion.

Wonderful

Revisado: 11-26-18

This was the most amazing original audible production to which I have ever listened. It is amazing and, something that you don't normally get in just about anything today, intelligent.

Billy Crystal is a genius. I have always thought so and he always will be and this just proves it. Kevin Kline as David Murray was amazing. Annette Bening as the first ladies was genius. And quite frankly Chris Jackson steals the show. His quips are spectacularly timed.

so, my recommendation is that you give this a listen and then you share it with your friends and convince them to listen. This is what I am going to do. You will not regret it.

Grandson gave it five stars

My grandson, Tommy, love this book. We listened to it on a long trip to my house. And, that's all I could want.

Don't miss this one!

A true story that reads like the best spy novel. There are twists and turns throughout. The epilogue is touching. The narration is perfect. Anyone interested in WWII or MI5 should definitely read this book.

Funny, Edge of Seat Thrilling

Revisado: 11-16-15

I have ADHD and I often start books and leave them unfinished. Not so with The Martian. This book gripped me from the beginning and kept going. I looked forward to my drive into work, so I could listen to it. Even the technical details didn't bog down the story. The narration by R.C. Bray was the best I've ever heard. With as many voices in the story, a lot of narrators wouldn't be able to handle it. Bray masters them. Each voice is distinct and well done. In addition, a lot of men do not do well with women's voices, but Bray does an excellent job. I purchased this book because I wanted to read it before I went to see the movie. It did not disappoint. I highly recommend it.

Lyndon Johnson's Fair Shake

Revisado: 10-11-12

I purchased this book because, truth be told, I didn't know anything about Johnson beyond that he succeeded Kennedy and escalated the War in Vietnam. This book describes his being chosen as Vice President, the election and the transition after the Kennedy assassination.

The book shows Johnson as he was - all his flaws are shown, as well as his gifts. President Johnson wasn't perfect, but he was the best man for the job. Since the sixties, his triumphs have been overlooked and his flaws have been highlighted.

If you want a well balanced and magnificent look at the 36th President, this book is where you will find it. I cannot wait for the next volume in Caro's series on Johnson.

A Story You Probably Haven't Heard

Revisado: 08-28-12

I didn't know anything about the second assassinated President in our nation's brief history. Garfield hadn't wanted to be President. When he was shot on July 2, 1881; he was only four months into his term. He lived eleven long weeks during which he was subjected to unsound medical tests and procedures that, most likely, killed him.
I listed to this book on my long drive to and from work. The book fascinated me and I found myself yelling in disgust at the horrible procedures they put Garfield through. The narrator, Paul Micheal, has a voice that keeps you on the edge of your feet. Candice Millard's writing is top notch. Her research shows in the facts presented. You have a real feel as if this happened last week instead of more than 100 years ago.
