Ok this is porn

Revisado: 10-26-24

This is porn. It is not romance story telling. It was chosen as a book club title and I listened to the whole thing. There is a love story here but it’s mixed with graphic descriptions of how he nearly overflows his condoms (ick).

Great listen

Revisado: 10-26-24

Like all good books about a performer, this one inspired me to go back and listen (and ultimately, download) many of her best works. Enjoyed listening to her tell her own stories about the songs. Well worth the listen.

Good bit of history

Revisado: 10-26-24

Really enjoyed the book but some choices were made that I found strange. Such as including people who aren’t actually Astors and leaving out actual Astor family members.

Are abridged

Revisado: 10-26-24

Didn’t realize these were abridged versions. Prefer my Cadfael in its entirety. Recommend seeking out the unabridged versions.

Such an original story

Revisado: 10-26-24

Really loved the story and the narrator. I’ll be looking at other titles by both.

Always love Malcolm but gotta disagree

Revisado: 10-26-24

Loved the book but as a healthcare provider and a patient who needed pain relief but couldn’t get it adequately due to the system’s fear of opioid abuse, I don’t agree with his take on the opioid epidemic. The real victims are patients like me (who had a double knee replacement and later a spinal fusion) who couldn’t get adequate pain control d/t prescriptions being regulated by the government to combat opioid addiction. I went to physical therapy in pain and suffered needlessly. I see his point about how Purdue pharma manipulated the system, but think that Purdue, not patients and healthcare providers, should’ve paid the price for this.

Lovely little romantic story

Revisado: 10-26-24

I really like Abby Jimenez’ writing. It unrealistic, like most romance stories, but I don’t read romance novels for realism. Perfectly crafted escapism that also paints a favorable picture of nurses. I do agree that the male narrator needs to work on his female voices.

Sooo boring

Revisado: 10-26-24

I’m usually a giant history buff and really liked the Game of thrones novels but this book is so boring. I think it might be the monotone of the narrator. All the material just runs together and I’m not able to kept the time periods or the characters straight. Maybe if I read it as a physical book I would’ve enjoyed it more.

The theories are a real stretch

Revisado: 07-01-24

The author starts the book by saying he doesn't believe that Dumbledore was omniscient but then spends the rest of the book stretching his theories into convoluted ramblings that rely on the idea that Dumbledore is so smart that he figures everything out or that he is using legilimency or that he is using the deluminator to spy on everyone's conversations. I found many of his theories extremely improbable. I don't think the book was worth the price. I also agree with other reviewers that the reading of the footnotes was extremely irritating but this isn't the performer's fault.
