Historia
Sixty-nine-year-old Arthur Pepper lives a simple life. He gets out of bed at precisely 7:30 a.m., just as he did when his wife, Miriam, was alive. He dresses in the same gray slacks and mustard sweater-vest; waters his fern, Frederica; and heads out to his garden. But on the one-year anniversary of Miriam's death, something changes. Sorting through Miriam's possessions, Arthur finds an exquisite gold charm bracelet he's never seen before.

Cute story and easy read

The plot was simple, with a few twists and turns, but this story kept me hooked. I enjoyed listening and found myself looking forward to Arthur's next journey.

Historia
The Unraveling of Brendan Meeks is a first-person glimpse into the mind of a young man with schizophrenia as he deals with tragic loss. The result is a unique and unforgettable mystery clouded with hallucinations and fraught by paranoia. Meeks is a young man born with a silver spoon jammed down his throat, a fact his domineering mother has never let him forget. Although he has nearly everything he could ever want - friends, money, a good education - Brendan's life falls apart during graduate school when he begins to show signs of schizophrenia.

A fun listen with an interesting pov
Revisado: 04-19-22
I really liked this story and found Champ Westwood's many voices to be spot on for each character. I thought the plot could've been a little stronger in some areas, but I thought it was a good story overall. I also appreciated hearing this story from Brendan's perspective and learning more about what it is like to live with a mental illness. I found Brendan's experience of trying to solve a murder believable and that made me like this book even more. I highly recommend this book and thought Champ Westwood did an excellent job narrating.

Historia
Mary B. Addison killed a baby. Allegedly. She didn't say much in that first interview with detectives, and the media filled in the only blanks that mattered: a white baby had died while under the care of a churchgoing black woman and her nine-year-old daughter. The public convicted Mary, and the jury made it official. But did she do it?

Good plot and amazing performance
Revisado: 06-06-21
This is the first book I've listened to by Bahni Turpin and now I can say she is one of my favorite narrators. Her tone in this story was realistic and I felt like I was hearing this story from Mary herself. I did feel like the plot was a little thin in some places, but this book embraced the reality of how unfair life can be. Overall, this was an excellent story that I couldn't pause because it was so good!

A complete story
Revisado: 05-22-21
This is the first book I've read by Joshilyn Jackson and I was excited to hear her narrating it. This book captures a whole story from beginning to end and gives the readers a window into the main characters' frames of mind, which I found to be realistic. This story had twists and turns throughout but also had times that were slow and flat so the reader could really grasp the emotions the characters were feeling. Overall, I thought it was a great read and Jackson did an amazing job as the narrator!

Revisado: 12-22-20
I was a little hesitant to choose this book because it seemed like the podcast/book POV could be confusing. However, I was impressed by the reviews and decided to give it a try. I was blown away by this audiobook!! This performance was incredible and the plot was filled with suspense. They characters were dynamic and their personalities seemed familiar and authentic. I also loved that Courtney Summers was able to let her readers understand the devastation that can follow you after a traumatic event like Sadie's because it's something society tends to usually hide. This is one of those books that gives you information piece by piece from different perspectives so you can try to "solve the mystery" and combines that with the perfect amount of drama and suspense. This was an awesome read!!

Psychological thriller meets sci-fi!
Revisado: 12-01-20
Loved this book! If was an interesting story that was dynamic and twisty. Kira Peikoff was able to perfectly capture the true emotions felt after traumatic events that are often only seen behind closed doors. She tapped into the ugly truths about issues that are prominent in our society today and made me resonate with every main character in this story. I will look forward to reading more books by her in the future!
The narrators of this story were incredible too. They captured their characters so well and made the book so exciting! I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend for anyone that enjoys thrillers.

Great listen!
Revisado: 07-18-20
I ended up really enjoying this book. I thought the story was a little hard to follow at the beginning because of the time jumps and the different characters. After getting about halfway through, I was listening as much as possible. Lisa Jewell does a fantastic job of describing the characters and the setting and I had a clear vision of what was happening. Overall, it was a good listen with a decent story plot. At times, the plot fell a little flat but the suspenseful endings of most chapters was enough to keep going. I hope this becomes a movie!

Historia
Imagine living with a fear so visceral each day that simply walking down the street draws terror to one’s core. That’s the best case scenario for a woman on the streets of Juárez, Mexico. Kate del Castillo (La Reina del Sur) delivers a stunning one-woman performance that transports listeners from a New York stage to the treacherous streets of Juárez, Mexico, where thousands of women have been murdered in an ongoing epidemic of violence.

Good story but difficult to understand
Revisado: 12-14-19
The story itself was important and the way Kate del Castillo read the script was wonderful. However, I felt like this was not a good choice for an audiobook: The characters basically sounded the same, sometimes her accents were difficult to understand, some of the phrases are completely spoken in Spanish, and the actress-reading-a-script aspect was odd and made it more confusing to me. Although I did like the story, I don't feel like I understood it fully and wish I could've seen it instead of listening to it.

Great story for such a small book
Revisado: 10-24-19
I read this book for an assignment and expected it to be dull and simplistic because of it's length and target audience. However, I was intrigued by the slightly mysterious plot and admired the main character's choice to raise his daughter instead of placing her up adoption. Overall, I really enjoyed listening to this book and want to read the whole series now!!
