Mexico in the 1970s is a dangerous country, even for Maite, a secretary who spends her life seeking the romance found in cheap comic books and ignoring the activists protesting around the city. When her next-door neighbor, the beautiful art student Leonora, disappears under suspicious circumstances, Maite finds herself searching for the missing woman—and journeying deeper into Leonora’s secret life of student radicals and dissidents.

Fiction at it's finest
Revisado: 01-04-22
Another entertaining and beautifully written book by Sylvia Moreno-Garcia. The narration was on point and kept me wanting to listen even when I needed to go to bed. I enjoyed the history aspect to this novel as I am sure most listeners/readers do. The characters made me laugh as well as the narrator's portrayal of them. I would definitely recommend this pulp fiction.

Not my favorite but good
Revisado: 01-07-21
The narration was not my favorite but it was entertaining. The book itself has some good qualities and I rather enjoyed the ending. It made my commute to and from work, less tedious.

Meggie Meyer, an anxiety-ridden debut author, can’t bear to face her upcoming book tour, but she can’t give up on her writing career just as it’s about to really begin. She comes up with a plan that’s so crazy, it just might work: She hires an actress to impersonate her for the two-week stint. Sloan Buchanan, the spunky aspiring actress, jumps at the opportunity to use her intensive acting method to sink into this unusual role, and the line between her and her character quickly begins to blur. And Rachel Drake, the no-nonsense detective, is left to put the pieces together.

A bit predictable but entertaining none the less. Parts of the book seemed to drag on and I would lose interest. Overall it was a decent listen.

Well written and kept my attention from beginning to end! The narration was enjoyable and I enjoyed listen to the story from each character's point of view. The ending was a bit predictable but it did not take away from the book at all.

Jeannette Walls grew up with parents whose ideals and stubborn nonconformity were both their curse and their salvation. Rex and Rose Mary Walls had four children. In the beginning, they lived like nomads, moving among Southwest desert towns, camping in the mountains. Rex was a charismatic, brilliant man who, when sober, captured his children's imagination. Rose Mary painted and wrote and couldn't stand the responsibility of providing for her family; she called herself an "excitement addict."

In 2006 Jamie Tworkowski wrote a story called “To Write Love on Her Arms”, about helping a friend through her struggle with drug addiction, depression, and self-injury. The piece was so hauntingly beautiful that it quickly went viral, giving birth to a non-profit organization of the same name. If You Feel Too Much is a celebration of hope, wonder, and what it means to be human. The essays in this audiobook invite listeners to believe that it’s okay to admit to pain and okay to ask for help.

So much emotion. So much felt
Revisado: 02-15-17
What made the experience of listening to If You Feel Too Much the most enjoyable?
Jaime Tworkowski's voice giving life to his words made this book so enjoyable. I can feel every emotion that he felt when he wrote each section of this. It truly is beautiful.
What was one of the most memorable moments of If You Feel Too Much?
It is hard to choose just one moment but when he talks about his father and their relationship during Elephant, i just broke down.
Have you listened to any of Jamie Tworkowski’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have not listened to any of his other performances but I will definitely do so now.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The whole book is moving. The raw emotion in his words and stories makes me want to be a better person.
Any additional comments?
Everyone should read this....whether you are young, old, depressed or not, all races...everyone. Because it truly makes you see and feel and realize that we all need people in our lives and love truly is the answer to everything.

This version of the Bennet family - and Mr. Darcy - is one that you have and haven't met before: Liz is a magazine writer in her late 30s who, like her yoga instructor older sister, Jane, lives in New York City. When their father has a health scare, they return to their childhood home in Cincinnati to help - and discover that the sprawling Tudor they grew up in is crumbling, and the family is in disarray.

Laughed and even cried listening to this book. I really enjoyed the modern spin to an old story. I am a sucked for comedy, love and happy endings and this provided all those.

The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.
