Historia
On a March night in 2000, two deputy sheriffs serving a warrant were shot in Atlanta, Georgia. One was severely wounded while the other would die a day later. The shooting kicked off a large manhunt in search of the alleged cop killer. Four days later in Alabama, authorities found their man—Jamil Al-Amin. He was a Muslim leader with the title of Imam in the West End neighborhood of Atlanta. He was also the man formerly known as H. Rap Brown. He was a charismatic Black radical in the late '60s.

It ended in the middle
Revisado: 04-14-25
This book had so much potential! The main voice actors were good, but some of the supporting actors were lacking. Very suspenseful, many twists and turns but the ending was unfulfilling at best. I hate leaving negative reviews but I’m left with no choice here. I feel cheated out of a proper ending.

Historical reference for an unbelievable story
Revisado: 04-10-25
The story was amazing- albeit a bit slow. Without all of the details an accurate picture cannot be made. However those details are many. Seeing that I could not skip ahead without skipping valuable insight and the written tapestry depicting the era- I decided on playing the book at 1.3x and that did the trick. Alas I am a product of the modern era reading about an era where time moved much more slowly. It’s not the books fault- the fault was mine. In short- this book should be required reading for any historian educating themselves on this period. Very well done!

Historia
Before Liz Lemon, before Weekend Update, before Sarah Palin, Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: A recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live. Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've always suspected: You're no one until someone calls you bossy.

Tina fey is a gift!
Revisado: 03-31-25
This book was very well done! Her story went at a great cadence- not too fast or too slow. Her depth of character really shown through so she didn’t sound like AI or over indulgent. Not all funny people can write a good, or great book- but Tina can! As much as I loved Tina before- it is hard to not love her even more when listening. I would venture to say… I would be deeply suspicious of anyone who didn’t like TF essentially if they read/listen to this book. Well written, well narrated, well mediated timelines, well done!

Amazing full cast audio production and storyline
- De Jason Nichols en 03-02-25
The voice actors were outstanding!
Revisado: 03-29-25
I liked everything about this audio book. However the thing I liked the best was the voice actors. The story was great, and very unpredictable. The voice actors were spot on! The sound editing was also outstanding! Great listen.

Revisado: 12-11-24
Aside from the story and reading being outstanding, the format made this great story- perfect. I don’t want to ruin the surprise… but I will say it is easy to follow. Flashbacks are followed by explanations in that order. I highly recommend this story!

The book was a bit slow in the first 1/3. The middle 1/3 picked up the pace. The final 1/3 was amazing! And the pieces came together beautifully and full of surprises!

Historia
My husband is dead. I attended his funeral. I watched his casket be lowered six feet into the ground. (Actually, it may have been only five feet, but that still seems like more than enough.) And then we ate an array of finger sandwiches and deviled eggs and miniature beef wellingtons that cost more than my first car. My point is, Grant is gone. And so are all his many, many deep, dark secrets which I never really ever bothered to ask him about. He is never coming back.

Big fan of SK- but this was not good
Revisado: 10-09-24
It is hard for me to rate this because I am a huge fan of SK. It was also hard because the narration was so terrible that I had a hard time rating the story separately than the narration. I have almost 500 audible books and this was by far the worst narration! Between the monotone, and the miss pronounced everyday words- and not being able to decipher one character from the next, I had trouble finding the story underneath. I’m sorry SK. It’s m still a fan- just not of this!
