Historia
In his first book, author Jason Smith explores the depravity and desperation required to maintain an opiate addiction so fierce, he finds himself jumping continents to avoid jail time and learns the hard way that some demons cannot be outrun. While teaching in Europe, he meets a prostitute who secures drugs for him at the dangerous price of helping out the Russian Mafia; in China he gets his Percocet and Xanax fixes but terrifies a crowd of children and parents at his job in the process.

Raw and honest
Revisado: 03-02-25
Well written, compelling story. The author gets to the point without hours of inner monologue. An interesting read for anyone… but particularly for those who work in mental health care/addiction care, those with loved ones who have addiction, and of course, those struggling with addiction.

Historia
Being one of the guys isn't all it's cracked up to be. So when journalist Chastity O'Neill returns to her hometown, she decides it's time to start working on some of those feminine wiles. Two tiny problems: one - she's five feet and 11 inches of rock-solid girl power; two - she's cursed with four alpha-male older brothers. While doing a story on local heroes, she meets a hunky doctor, and things start to look up. Now there's only one problem: Trevor Meade, her first love and the one man she's never quite gotten over....

Couldn’t tolerate the narrator
Revisado: 04-19-24
I like Kristan Higgins and haven’t had too many issues with Xe Sands in past audiobooks. For whatever reason, this one was simply grating. The vocal fry, whimpering tone, and overly macheesmo male characters made it too unpleasant to continue. I made it several hours in before I had to stop. If you’re also sensitive to narrative quality, I’d advise skipping this one.

Historia
Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she's struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance - and healing - in each other's arms.

One of these kids is not like the others
Revisado: 03-17-24
I really enjoyed this series… until this book. Too many F bombs and oh, the pornography! If someone told me Ms Maas didn’t really write this volume, I’d believe it. I tried to return it, Audible wouldn’t let me. So I sped it up to 1.2x and skipped the unnecessarily graphic sex scenes.

Skip this one
Revisado: 02-06-24
This is not one of Ms Kinsella’s better stories. I enjoy her witty, lighthearted romantic comedic style, but something is missing in this novel. It’s stilted and sometimes cringey. The character development is lacking. Moreover, the narrator detracts even more from the story because she sounds significantly older than the 25 year old main character. Not recommended, use your credit elsewhere.

Good start but…
Revisado: 01-11-24
… it became too weird. I love a good time travel story, but this was just too much nonsense. I gave up at the beginning of the third book, it no longer held my interest. Reads more like a young adult novel, which isn’t a bad thing, but it’s no Outlander.

Raw and relatable
Revisado: 08-19-23
Jennifer’s story is an engaging and unvarnished tale of life that most of us can relate to. I thoroughly enjoyed going along for the ride, identifying with many of the challenges and the often unexpected way things turn out. Her writing is balanced - with enough detail to paint the picture in one’s mind, without excess nor the ubiquitous self aggrandizing quality of many celebrity memoirs. Don’t let the negative reviews deter you, I’d guess that some of the negativity isn’t really about her story or the quality of her writing. Rather, it’s likely rooted in the mistaken notion that people deemed as privileged aren’t allowed to have feelings or sadness in their lives. Highly recommended!

Historia
"Happily Ever After" wasn't supposed to come with a do-over option. But when my husband of 20 years packs up and heads for greener pastures, and my son heads away to college, that's exactly what my midlife becomes. A do-over. This time, though, I plan to do things differently. Age is just a number, after all, and at 40 I'm ready to carve my own path. Eager for a fresh start, I make a somewhat unorthodox decision and move to a tiny town in the Sierra foothills.

Age angst galore!!
Revisado: 05-21-23
I love fantasy novels and was excited for this one based on the reviews. However, the protagonist’s constant whining about her ruined body after having one child over 20 years ago is mind numbing. Worse, there are multiple references to how terribly old 40 is, with complaints about this sagging or that aching… honestly, I know people in their 70s who complain less. I can only assume the author is a teenager to have conceived of these expected horrors of age. Otherwise, there are lots of funny moments and some fun characters. The storyline is a bit underdeveloped, I won’t spoil it but the last couple hours don’t make any sense. I hope others get more out of it, but I will skip the rest of the series and re-listen to The Dresden Files.

Charming, informative, and appealing. Even if you don’t love chickens, this book is an interesting insight into a world few of us ever regard. I learned so much as well, who knew about chicken shows? Highly recommend!

SLOW
Revisado: 11-04-22
This audiobook is slow, both storywise and in the performance. I finished it against my initial impression, I wanted to stop. Instead, I sped it up to 1.2x and plowed through. I now know I should have stopped and requested a credit refund. The storyline is sluggish and not terribly interesting, rather contrived. Save your credit.
