Nice story

Revisado: 09-25-24

Wish it was a complete story. Don’t like to be left hanging at the end of a book!!

Perfect for now

Revisado: 03-15-24

Often, as moving and as powerful as Baldwin’s writings. No time to sit back and decry our fate. I only hope I act on my feelings now and how this book has inspired me to do something, anything, Now is the moment that calls us.

Speechless

Revisado: 01-31-24

I’m amazed even time time I hear/read this book, or anything by Mr. Baldwin. It all seems so obvious…but no one sees it or states it as clearly and as urgently as he did. Can we hear him at all? I don’t know; I sadly don’t know.

Hawthorn is better

Revisado: 01-05-24

Entertaining but I prefer the Hawthorn series . I found the book inside the book more interesting—Susan’s reveal at the end took too long and her epiphanies were a bit too out of the blue.

Modern sensibilities

Revisado: 12-21-23

I love many of A. Horowitz’s novels, especially the The sentence is Murder, etc series. I have never read Ian Fleming’s Bond novels and have seen only 1 or 2 of the movies years and years ago… so I approached this book with no real expectations… I am very glad that Mr. Horowitz did not adjust his Bond character to fit our “modern sensibilities.” I think we need such reminders of mindsets that reduced women to objects and foreigners to often negative stereotypes… unfortunately such mindsets—here in the USA, seem to be on the upsurge. I think it is wonderful that the Bond novels meant so much to a young Horowitz; any work that is so inspiring is, in my opinion, a masterpiece—but I find that a 007-type hero is simply just not my cup of tea. My belief that A. Horowitz is an amazing writer and storyteller remains intact!🤗

First of a great, great series

Great story, fascinating characters, captivating plot, and possibly the best narrator I’ve ever had the pleasure to hear.

Good ending

Revisado: 06-02-23

Almost quit listening; I was afraid that the ending would disappoint… it didn’t. Performances were spot on.

Vocal Power!!!!

Revisado: 06-02-23

I first became aware of Lake Bell about 2 years ago when I was searching for Simon Pegg movies and found “Man Up.” Ms. Bell’s performance, smile, and voice blew me away!!! I’ve since watched, and loved, “In a World.” Loved the book, Bell’s passion for her subject and the thrill of possibilities in store for me, a 71-year-old grandma from Iowa, in discovering and learning at long last to be proud of my voice , and to treasure more than ever voices& sounds of my children and grandchildren. I think “Inner Voice” is an important book and that there should be an “Inner Voice 2”!!! And, P.S. my kids love my new voicemail message!!! Thank you Lake Bell!!! P.P.S Maybe book 2 could feature Christopher Walken, Robert Glenister (awesome narrator of Cormoran Strike books… he is the best male narrator that I’ve heard for his many accents and ability to sound like a woman of any age!) , the late(s?) Bette Davis & Leonard Cohen… or differences between singing and speaking voices.. Freddie Mercury (I think a big difference) and Adele ( not such a difference?? love, love her singing and her speaking voices!!!!)

Everything. Everything. That’s what I liked about both recordings. The voices, the music, the sound effects, and the adaptations are excellent, enjoyable, funny, fun and even a bit inspiring!❤️🙌👏👏👏

Beautiful. I feel inspired

Revisado: 01-22-22

I’ve just finished listening to this remarkable book. And am struck, more than I was at the time of the riot, at how fragile this democracy is and how that fragility is increasing. Rule by the minority is the goal. Also learning about Tommy Raskin was a gift. What a precious soul. Thanks to Congressman Raskin and his family for sharing him with us.
