Well Done

Revisado: 07-31-19

I was disappointed that there was no PDF textbook to accompany this lecture, but it was full of good advice. It is also short enough that I immediately wanted to revisit the audio to ensure I had absorbed the lessons and hadn't missed anything.

Made Me Want to Tell Stories

Revisado: 07-31-19

Good advice. Inspirational. Well performed. I really enjoyed this one. It made me want to tell stories, gave me ideas for my podcast, and was entertaining to boot. I only wish that there was a PDF to go along with the book that had exercises and assignments, that would be helpful.

Insurance is not Funny

Revisado: 07-25-19

I was not amused by this one. Not by the premise. Not by the execution. It just did nothing for me and I did not find it funny. It's very short and was one of the Audible freebies, but neither of those things can save this rather lame story.

Bosch is a Tough Character

Revisado: 07-23-19

I found the character of Bosch to be difficult to like and felt like that was a deliberate decision by the author. The story was good and the characters were mostly well done. I picked up the second in the series on sale, so I will continue with the series. But I don't believe I would if I didn't already have the second story... He's well written and realized, but Bosch is not a character I'm invested in. I just don't like him much.

South Florida Fun

Revisado: 07-06-19

Took a few chapters for me to sync up with the flow of this one, but once I did, I enjoyed the story. I found the story to be more amusing than funny. But I will be listening to the next one in the series.

The Problem with Celebrity Narration

Revisado: 06-21-19

I found the narration by John C. Reilly to be a bit distracting, as I kept visualizing him in his various film roles. It wasn't a bad narration, it was just little disorienting. The story itself was interesting, the characters were vivid, and the exploration of life in a mental ward made for compelling storytelling. It was an interesting listen.

Amusing Portrait of the Painter

Revisado: 06-19-19

Good storytelling, good narration, interesting premise, but this one never fired my interest or tickled my funny bone. I was however, drawn into the mystery of the color man and his friend.

Not What I Was Looking For

Revisado: 06-12-19

I found it very difficult to become engaged with this story. The dialogue is stiff and rather flat. The world's setting is awkward and weird. And the attempt to capture the pulp-noir feel and mix it with urban fantasy doesn't come off well. I don't mean to infer that it's a terrible nozzle, it's not, and I finished it. I just didn't find any particular enjoyment in the story, the characters, or the setting.

Lots of Good Information

Revisado: 06-06-19

it's hard to get excited about a lecture series. but, there is a ton of good information in these lectures and this one has even more information in the guide book. The lectures cover a lot of territory and do it well. Even if you just listen to this series and never look at the guide book you should get plenty of information about diet and nutrition.

Interesting Analysis of the Genre

Revisado: 05-30-19

While a bit dated, in this book King provides some interesting analysis on the horror genre in both film and the written word. The narration was good and Stephen King's writing has his usual conversational tone.
