Hard to finish
Revisado: 06-12-19
I had a hard time finishing this one. I generally like historical fiction, but this one was pretty heavy handed with the depressing detail of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. Plus, it was hard to follow all the Hebrew names in an audio book - two characters had similar names, which was confusing. The editing was also poor - there were no pauses in narration between sections in a chapter. It sounded the narrator was just reading the next sentence rather than pausing to let the listener understand we were changing to the story of another character.

Good book, pretentious narration
Revisado: 05-28-19
I loved the story but the narrator sounded like she was working really hard on her diction and to prevent any sort of accent. She sounded so pretentiius as the main characte. The narration for the other characters was much better

Fluffy Drivel
Revisado: 01-04-19
If all you want is a happy ending and can get this for $1.99, this is the audio book fir you.
Poorly developed characters, implausible events, sickly sweet performance and overly simple dialog. If this was written by a high school sophomore I'd say "good job!" If it's written and published by adults, I'd recommend they reconsider their profession.
I lost brain cells listening to this drivel.

Tornadoes, cyclones, tsunamis… Weather can be deadly – especially when it strikes without warning. Millions of Americans could soon find themselves at the mercy of violent weather if the public data behind lifesaving storm alerts gets privatized for personal gain. In his first Audible Original feature, New York Times best-selling author and journalist Michael Lewis delivers hard-hitting research on not-so-random weather data – and how Washington plans to release it.

Loved it! Fascinating information.

Didn't sound that interesting from the description but it hooked me from the start with stories from the first woman in space. Fascinating.

Good story - unpredictable and satisfying. I did not see the final, surprising twist coming.

Thinly drawn characters and a predictable plot. There is nothing special here. No real secondary storyline, either.

Unlikable main character
Revisado: 02-26-17
Hated the main character. Very unlikeable. Story was okay. Not interested in continuing if this is a series.
