Historia
Set in a Lower East Side tenement in the early days of the COVID-19 lockdowns, Fourteen Days is an irresistibly propulsive collaborative novel from the Authors Guild, with an unusual twist: each character in this diverse, eccentric cast of New York neighbors has been secretly written by a different, major literary voice—from Margaret Atwood and John Grisham to Tommy Orange and Celeste Ng.

I liked this story overall but got frustrated with the last family’s story because I didn’t understand why their story was even shared or how it fit in. But the conclusion had a surprising ending that helped me understand why that family’s story was included.

Historia
In 1972, when workers in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, were digging the foundations for a new development, the last thing they expected to find was a skeleton at the bottom of a well. Who the skeleton was and how it got there were two of the long-held secrets kept by the residents of Chicken Hill, the dilapidated neighborhood where immigrant Jews and African Americans lived side by side and shared ambitions and sorrows. Chicken Hill was where Moshe and Chona Ludlow lived when Moshe integrated his theater and where Chona ran the Heaven & Earth Grocery Store.

The history lesson I didn’t know I needed.
Revisado: 08-29-24
The story was very good, though a bit laborious at times. I understand why it was added yet it’s still drug the story out a bit. Otherwise I’m very glad. I listen to it on audible and highly recommended to anybody because the history lesson learned is something we all need.

Historia
Anne grew up in an abusive home, leading to severe depression and a determination to do better as a mother. One of her sons wants a dog from the time he is a baby; Anne very much does not. For years she appeases him with creatures who live in cages and tanks, but on his tenth birthday she can no longer say no—and she proceeds to fall in love with their new four-legged family member, Mattie. Then Mattie dies a sudden and tragic death, and Anne feels herself begin to sink back into depression.

We get the dog we need, not necessarily the dog we want.
Revisado: 05-24-24
This was an enjoyable story on a difficult subject. Losing a dog, or two, is traumatic, whether by being hit by a car or dying with cancer. My sweet little dog died of old age and dementia, called canine cognitive disorder.
The author and the narrator did an excellent job sharing that trauma without being traumatic. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves or has loved a dog!

The story was enjoyable as was the narrator’s voice. It was nice that it wasn’t too long, too.

Religion’s death grip
Revisado: 01-04-24
The story was well written with the surprise ending that everyone is talking about! But there were surprises all along the way, which makes it even more worthwhile.
All religions can have a death grip, especially on the innocent and gullible. Shame on all religions!

Historia
Narrated by the author, this is an eloquently written memoir of the author and his wife's crazy life experiences, splashed and peppered with the outrageous antics of this wildly witted Bengal Kitten that not only turned their Empty Nest upside-down - but brought into focus a continuity of Kindred Spirits that gave meaning to their lives. A heartfelt and hilarious read that will leave you loving The Culprit from start to finish!

It’s a “palate cleanser” after the heavy, dark story I just listened to
Revisado: 11-17-23
I enjoyed the light hearted stories along with the occasional sounds effects! I’m glad to have heard it after deep subject matter I listened to earlier.

By the time she is just eight years old, the Duke has remarried and had a son, Eddie. While Sallie is her father’s daughter, sharp-witted and resourceful, Eddie is his mother’s son, timid and cerebral. When Sallie tries to teach young Eddie to be more like their father, her daredevil coaching leads to an accident, and Sallie is cast out.

Yet another excellent and thought provoking story by Jeannette Walls and hearing it in her own voice helped me understand her story through her mind’s eye.

An easy listen
Revisado: 01-20-23
This story was an easy listen, meaning it wasn’t deep or intense. If you’re looking for a break from dark suspense, this is your story! It’s kept you guessing without being macabre. It was a quick listen as well, which was also a nice change.

In 1912, scientist Marie Curie spent two months on the British seaside at the home of Hertha Ayrton, an accomplished mathematician, inventor, and suffragette.

Performed by Kate Mulgrew and Francesca Faridany at the Minetta Lane Theatre, this play by Lauren Gunderson is an ode to two remarkable women.

What a great story with wondrous depiction of words. The voices were perfect and the occasional background sounds created mental images I could not have done myself. I have listened to it three times and strongly urge you to experience this story as well!
