Historia
Craig McNamara came of age in the political tumult and upheaval of the late '60s. While Craig McNamara would grow up to take part in anti-war demonstrations, his father, Robert McNamara, served as John F. Kennedy’s Secretary of Defense and the architect of the Vietnam War. This searching and revealing memoir offers an intimate picture of one father and son at pivotal periods in American history. Because Our Fathers Lied is more than a family story—it is a story about America.

Less about lies...
Revisado: 04-28-25
Being a Vietnam era vet, I was hoping to hear more about dad's lies than about the son's exploits. Interesting book, well read, but not what I had expected

Historia
Michael Crichton, creator of Jurassic Park, ER, Twister, and Westworld, had a passion project he’d been pursuing for years, ahead of his untimely passing in 2008. Knowing how special it was, his wife, Sherri Crichton, held back his notes and the partial manuscript until she found the right author to complete it: James Patterson, the world’s most popular storyteller.

Too predictable

Scott Brick is the only salvation for this book. No surprises. Stereotypes aplenty, good guy, bad guy, love interest… There are much better books.

Her previous actions at a gunfight in Texas—and her incredible skills with firearms—draw the attention of several branches of the US government, and make her a perfect fit for even more dangerous work. The Department of Homeland Security and the NSA have tasked her with infiltrating a hacker group, known only as Ordinary People, that is intent on wreaking havoc. Letty and her reluctant partner from the NSA pose as free-spirited programmers for hire and embark on a cross country road trip to the group’s California headquarters.

Abrupt ending
Revisado: 09-18-23
Glad to see the Davenport series continue as Lucas and Virgil get on in years. Good story line but ended quite abruptly though it was nice to see the girls “rewarded.” Great job by the reader made for an enjoyable book.

Not what I expected from the overview description, but good enough not to return. Good reader but story is too much of a stretch.

Easy listening, entertaining, but a little too far fetched to be believable. Narrator is the only reason we kept going to the end.

Historia
Ascending to the leadership role of US Attorney for the Southern District, which includes Manhattan and several counties to the north, is a capstone to any legal career: it entails guiding a team of the best lawyers in America in selecting and winning cases that often have global import. Geoffrey Berman was honored to be tapped for the job by Donald Trump in 2018. The manner in which Trump had dispatched his predecessor Preet Bharara was troubling, but the institution was fabled for its independence. Surely he could manage.

A madding recap of history
Revisado: 05-03-23
Too many said nothing for far too long. The silence is nothing more than enabling. Too many books by people who, at the time, were totally complicit. Maddening!

Too much skipping character to character.
Revisado: 02-18-23
Another excellent Reacher novel, but too much skipping from character to character with no transition. Sometimes difficult to keep up without a white board. Brick brings his usual excellent performance.

It took half the book before the reader’s voice distinguished one character from another. His presentation is saved only by a decent story line.

Historia
Sam Johnstone was hoping for renewal when he took a job at a boutique law firm in rustic Wyoming. The mountains and streams of the West would be a refreshing, quiet place to start over after years of war and turmoil in his personal life. But after a local woman is brutally murdered, Sam realizes that things aren’t so quiet in this rural American town. The accused is one Tommy Olsen, a known delinquent who had been sleeping with the victim. Sam is repulsed by the crime and wants nothing to do with the case but meets with Tommy to make sure he has legal representation.

The narrator takes getting used to. Good story, but it took a while for the narrator to develop the characters. Once the story got rolling, the book was quite enjoyable.
