The best
Revisado: 06-21-17
One of the best books I've absorbed in a long time. Leave it to Grisham. One of his bests yet. And Miss LaVoy has a wonderful voice, a pleasure to listen to and pronounces all her words well. I really hate listening to books that the pronunciation is incorrect ... really appalling. And that dear Audible rests ultimately on your head. Please please please look into this. It would greatly be appreciated. I usually don't complain because I'm so greatful for your device, but this reading was ultimately breath of fresh air.

From the vivid opening vista, high in craggy mountains, to the final haunting glimpse of a moonlit canyon, Nevada Barr's first mystery, Track of the Cat, instantly caught the attention of readers and reviewers. Its popularity gained it both an Agatha and an Anthony Award.

Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 417
Charles Wang is mad at America. A brash, lovable immigrant businessman who built a cosmetics empire and made a fortune, he's just been ruined by the financial crisis. Now all Charles wants is to get his kids safely stowed away so that he can go to China and attempt to reclaim his family's ancestral lands - and his pride. Outrageously funny and full of charm, The Wangs vs. the World is an entirely fresh look at what it means to belong in America - and how going from glorious riches to (still name-brand) rags brings one family together in a way money never could.

A wonderful story about family, love and living. And the narrator was one of the best I have listened to on Audible.

Acclaimed scientist Hope Jahren has built three laboratories in which she's studied trees, flowers, seeds, and soil. Her first book might have been a revelatory treatise on plant life. Lab Girl is that, but it is also so much more. Because in it, Jahren also shares with us her inspiring life story, in prose that takes your breath away.

Best book I've read in a long time. Everything about it from the narrater the the poetic words used to describe everything. Who would imagined plants could be so interesting. And don't forget to plant a tree. Or ten or more.

Small-town librarian Kathleen Paulson never wanted to be the crazy cat lady. But after Owen and Hercules followed her home, she realized her mind wasn't playing tricks on her - her cats have magical abilities.
When the body of elderly do-gooder Agatha Shepherd is found near Kath's favorite local cafe, she knows Owen's talent for turning invisible and Hercules's ability to walk through walls will give the felines access to clues Kath couldn't get without arousing suspicion.

Lynsey Addario is just finding her way as a young photographer when the events of September 11, 2001, change the world. One of the few photojournalists with experience in Afghanistan, she gets the call to return and cover the American invasion. She makes a decision she will often find herself making - not to stay home, not to lead a quiet or predictable life, but to set out across the world, face the chaos of crisis, and make a name for herself.

Rethinking war
Revisado: 12-02-15
Ms Addario has compiled a superbly readable eye opener about hideousness of war. Her straight from the heart account opened my eyes to the brutality of war without gratuitous war scenarios that might interest to someone that finds battle scenes intriguing. That wouldn't be me!
I feel she got the loss and destruction of war across as well as the emotional consequences that maybe come a burden for generations.
Thank you Lynsey Addario. Hopefully many people will read this memoir and ask questions of just how important is brutalizing and destruction.

Just Kids begins as a love story and ends as an elegy. It serves as a salute to New York City during the late 60s and 70s and to its rich and poor, its hustlers and hellions. A true fable, it is a portrait of two young artists' ascent, a prelude to fame.
