Historia
Lexa Thomas has never quite fit in. Having grown up in a family of blondes while more closely resembling Constance Wu, she's neither White enough nor Asian enough. Visiting her father in Taiwan as a child, Lexa thought she'd finally found a place where she belonged. But that was years ago, and even there, some never truly considered her to be a part of the family. When her estranged father dies unexpectedly, leaving the fate of his Taiwanese family in Lexa's hands, she is faced with the choice to return to Taiwan and claim her place in her heritage.

Accurate & Engaging For ALL
Revisado: 07-24-23
As someone who is AAPI I appreciate how this book told an authentic story without making Asian Americans and Taiwanese some kind of education tool. This book seamlessly weaves together cultures without being overbearing or obvious. The online app date Alexa has for example— I think many AAPI women have experience this. Also the theme of “not being enough”. Well done!

Historia
It's a story that Ted Grayson has reported time and time again in his job as a network TV anchor: the public downfall of those at the top. He just never imagined that it would happen to him. After his profanity-laced tirade is caught on camera, his reputation and career are destroyed, leaving him without a script for the first time in years.

Complex and Fascinating
Revisado: 07-12-23
This is the first book in awhile that I felt had complex, fascinating characters and could keep the momentum of the story through the entire work. Highly recommend!

Historia
When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn't think it's love at first sight. They wouldn’t even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn’t want love, she doesn’t have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.

Returned It...and I Don't Do That Often!
Revisado: 04-10-23
I really wanted to love this book since it has such good reviews and there are throngs of Colleen Hoover fans out there. However, the male narration was so creepy it made my skin crawl and the story itself was so slow I found myself losing interest.

Cheesy and Funny and the PERFECT Summer Book!
Revisado: 05-30-17
I've read all of Kevin Kwan's books, and this one is as equally funny and entertaining as the first two. Of course, they're all kind of silly but entertaining nonetheless. (I see many parallels between the book and my real life as an Asian American woman!) The narrator really brings the story to life.

By far the best FI book in the series!
Revisado: 01-02-16
After bing listening to the whole Forensic Instincts series over the holidays, this one is by far the best, story-wise and based on performance.
While the first two had a dull male narrator and the third had the worst female narrator I've ever listened to (that's saying a lot since I've been a platinum member for years now) Hillary Huber was a nice mix of conversational and steady.
Some critiques of the other books include how Claire's psychic abilities make the storyline unbelievable, and you don't get that with this installment. Just enough Claire. The character development is also more advanced, as if Andrea Kane's writing has matured.
Highly recommended!

Ultra entertaining from start to finish!
Revisado: 07-25-15
I listen to a lot of audio books but have never felt compelled to write a review until now. This title was so entertaining and well written and narrated, I spent extra time just sitting in my car at the supermarket listening!
The writing is tight and clever, the plot unexpected, and unique. By far the most suspenseful and exciting assassin novel I've listened to. I highly recommend this book for anyone who likes the genre, and likes that Kill Bill style whimsy.

Women's Murder Club Getting Tired
Revisado: 05-10-15
I've listened/read this entire series, a love January LaVoy. However, maybe it's a combination of writing and performance but the exchanges:/dialogue between Lindsay and her husband are so cheesy and fluffy sounding. It's almost cringeworthy! I also think the story line in this one was a bit predictable.
