Historia
They were just friends. Best friends. They spent entire summers sitting on Shiloh’s porch steps, dreaming about the future. They promised each other that, no matter what, their friendship would never change. Well, Shiloh did go to college, and Cary did join the Navy. And yet, somehow, everything changed.

A beautiful story
Revisado: 12-23-24
It was really a beautiful story and specifically poignant to me because my timeline with my best friend is almost exactly the same. In the end, I was left wanting a deeper story with greater character development. The use of he said…, and she said… throughout the story was unfortunately distracting.

Historia
In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is planned - from the layout of the winding roads to the colors of the houses to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead.

The multilayered characters
Revisado: 03-07-24
What a beautiful story! The character development, the many layers to each one of them, and the braiding of their lies together made this an absolutely beautiful story and stunning work of writing.

The raw honesty
Revisado: 02-22-24
It feels like a private glimpse into Dave’s life. I love his vulnerability and honesty in telling his story through his true and humble self. I appreciate his willingness to share a lot of this with the world, as we are so curious. It feels even better that he is reading it because you really get a sense of his feelings. My only critique is that I wish they had gotten a professional editor to clean it up a bit… It was a little painful sometimes.

Historia
Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening, her husband, Gabriel, returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety.

How she brought it all in at the end
Revisado: 12-22-23
Nothing about the book left me wanting. Great story and beautifully done through the voices of the three women. The voices for each character were perfect. And a well wrapped ending

Inspiring honesty
Revisado: 10-13-23
KW delivers an ode to honesty. The value of truth was her biggest takeaway… and mine. Her willingness to be so vulnerable is both heroic and inspiring.

Historia
With courage, grace, and powerful insight, bestselling author Kristin Hannah captures the epic panorama of World War II and illuminates an intimate part of history seldom seen: the women's war. The Nightingale tells the stories of two sisters, separated by years and experience, by ideals, passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France—a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women. It is a novel for everyone, a novel for a lifetime.

Curiously obvious
Revisado: 04-16-23
The story is worthy of a podcast and the delivery of the narrator is excellent and keeps your attention. The curious aspect is how the narrator touts her own high education and intellect, in addition to those in the story, but can’t seem to figure out what was painfully obvious by chapter 2. As the listener, I’m left wondering if the writers have ever listened to a true crime story before. Each chapter leaves her to be even more baffled by the mystery, but there’s not really a mystery. Motive is painfully obvious from the beginning, and I was left wishing the story was presented in another way.
