Historia
Experience Star Wars: A New Hope from a whole new point of view. On May 25, 1977, the world was introduced to Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, C-3PO, R2-D2, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and a galaxy full of possibilities. In honor of the 40h anniversary, more than 40 contributors lend their vision to this retelling of Star Wars. Each of the 40 short stories reimagines a moment from the original film, but through the eyes of a supporting character.

This book is everything I love about Star Wars
Revisado: 12-24-22
This book was at the same time; funny, thoughtful, sometimes heart breaking, and always full of hope.
The varying perspectives give a whole new depth to this already vivid world and it's inhabitants. The narrators nailed their performances.
All around a wonderful read.

Historia
To serial slayer Andrew Compton, murder is an art, the most intimate art. After feigning his own death to escape from prison, Compton makes his way to the United States with the sole ambition of bringing his “art” to new heights. Tortured by his own perverse desires, and drawn to possess and destroy young boys, Compton inadvertently joins forces with Jay Byrne, a dissolute playboy who has pushed his “art” to limits even Compton hadn’t previously imagined.

Extremely Dark and sexually charged
Revisado: 12-18-22
To start, overall I did enjoy the book.
But, it is definitely not for everyone.
This is a dark, dark story of a gay necrophiliac serial killer. it is also a statement on HIV and AIDS, and oddly enough, a love story. A few love stories actually.
Overall I enjoyed the book, it told a very interesting story with some very colorful characters. I had to stop and revaluate my listening choices. I consume a lot of dark materials, and this is up there.

Historia
Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction." She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income. In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail.

Beautifully Written and Heartbreaking
Revisado: 08-12-22
Jennette McCurdy blew me away with her concise, deeply personal story telling. With the passages written as though they were written in realtime, I felt as though I was reading passages from her diary. She doesn't put on airs or try to make anything to be darker or more glamorous, she just tells her story as she experienced it.
I really appreciated that this was HER story, not a scandalous tell-all filled with gossip and speculation.
I loved this book and couldn't stop listening. The chapters were short but everything word had a purpose. It was so easy to get into and invested because there wasn't filler and fluff. This book was real and raw and I have no doubt it will make a lasting impression on everyone who reads it.

Historia
Eight-year-old orphan Beth Harmon is quiet, sullen, and by all appearances unremarkable. That is, until she plays her first game of chess. Her senses grow sharper, her thinking clearer, and for the first time in her life she feels herself fully in control. By the age of 16, she's competing for the US Open championship. But as Beth hones her skills on the professional circuit, the stakes get higher, her isolation grows more frightening, and the thought of escape becomes all the more tempting.

Historia
Eva never really wanted to be a mother - and certainly not the mother of a boy who ends up murdering seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his 16th birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevin’s horrific rampage, in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin.

I could not stop listening. The perspective of the story being told from Elsa's letter to her husband regarding their son gave it such a personal touch.

Historia
Shelby works as a dog walker in northern California, and she’s just finished up her bi-weekly trip to the park with a husky named Pluto. When she brings him back to his house, she finds his owner - Todd Burke, a well-known local businessman and founder of an organic supplements company - lying on the bathroom floor, dead. A detective arrives on the scene. As she interviews Shelby, the body is inspected by a medical examiner, and more cops search Todd’s home, it becomes clear that the victim’s life was less picture-perfect than his clean-cut persona might lead you to believe.

Quick and fun read for FANF fans
Revisado: 01-20-20
These stories were quick and fun to read. definitely not ground breaking literature, and clearly intended for a younger audience (teenagers). Still, I am glad to have read it. They are very parable like in that each of them has a moral one should take with them at the end.

Well written, heartfelt, and suspenseful
Revisado: 11-18-19
I loved this book and cannot wait to read more of Karen Slaughter ( which is such a great pen name!). The prologue had me hooked and it didn't slow down in pace. The characters were all well developed with well thought out relationships and connections. This book had me smirking from the cleverness and wit of the dialogue and at times heartbroken from their trials and tribulations. The balance between the two stopped it from being melodramatic or disingeniuen.
Would highly recommend to anyone who likes crime and suspense novels.
