Engaging and Entertaining!

Revisado: 11-22-24

I loved this! It’s incredibly informative, breaking down the functions of rooms in the house and how they’ve changed and evolved over the years. While a little dated now, it’s still a font of historical knowledge. The writer doesn’t just give us facts and dates, she engages the reader with anecdotes and fun stories.
This very much feels as if you’re sitting in a living room with a good friend.

Psychologically Frightening and Believably Real

Revisado: 10-19-24

As usual, Grant takes the technology of the near future and makes it look both real and achievable. Once there, she twists it into a frighteningly real perverse situation.
Dream and VR therapy twisted into a truly life and death experience, where it’s not guaranteed that the you that went into it, will be the you that returns.

A Deeply Personal Reexamination of a Cold Case

Revisado: 09-20-24

I loved the narrator, and the author was wonderful about sharing her experiences and emotions as she spends years tracing the science that may or may not have put an innocent man in jail.
My only complaint is that while personal to the author, the last 3 chapters could have been condensed. At times it felt incredibly drawn out with no real resolution. As this case is still being worked, I can only hope that there will be an updated chapter added for closure.

Thorough and interesting

Revisado: 07-14-24

This is an incredibly thorough recounting of one of the lesser known serial killer cases.
The author has personal ties to both the location and persons involved, and yet maintains a dispassionate view of the events.
My only complaint is that the narrator’s voice is at times a bit dry, which makes for boring listening. However! The author has included interesting tidbits of knowledge that are obliquely relevant to the case; such as famous people who were born or lived at the time.

Fantastic Nonfiction Anthology

Revisado: 07-05-24

I really enjoyed the fact that while this is an anthology of the author’s previously printed articles from newspapers and magazines; he took the time and effort to inform readers of what fiction works they inspired, as well as updates on what has happened since publishing the original article.

Cheaters Never win, But Cheetahs have run down their Prey!

Revisado: 02-09-24 El oyente recibió este título gratis

As always this book is a romp! Full of fun and mystery, I enjoyed hearing the romance story from a male protagonist.
I found the ending to be a perfect blend of heartwarming and sweet while leaving room for the side characters to have their own adventures later.

Intense and Informative!

Revisado: 02-08-24

A good book, which details specific crimes and how they influenced the changing of laws and people’s attitudes towards crimes.

The writer is excellent, informative and fun.
The narrator is, unfortunately a bit monotonous and so parts of this book drag on.
However! This is the sort of book that is best read in small doses and digested slowly. Done this way, the narrator is not that troublesome.

A Truly Moving Read

Revisado: 01-31-24

I loved this. Bonnie made this an experience. You travel with her as she learns the life and history of Tokitae, one of the last killer whales in captivity.
With interviews, facts, and a sense of being surrounded by the culture of the Lummi people, I was moved deeply.

If you do not know of Tokitae before this book, I beg you to not wiki her until after you are done reading this. It will break your heart.
