Brilliant, Smart and Moving!

Revisado: 12-25-24

Mr. di Canzio has given us a beautiful and romantic story that waaves itself between and beyond E. M. Forster's "Maurice." It's not only about love between two men but the loving connection between all queer people past and present. I love this book. Mr. Sackville's read was flawless, bringing to life the rich characters and places while never trampling the beautiful text. Alec is everything an audiobook should be.

As beautiful as the first time

Revisado: 10-26-23

I didn't think it was possible. This book is every bit as beautiful as the previous one in the series. It's perfect. Dante and Ari, along with their friends and family, truly come alive through Mr. Saenz's poetic yet grounded words. Mr. Miranda is the perfect reader to give voice to these characters. He becomes the characters. This book deserves to be read by one of the greatest talents of this generation. Everything comes together here. it made me cry, laugh and everything in between.

Stephen Fry!

Revisado: 01-07-23

Only Stephen Fry could do it like this! He breaks down Greek mythology with style and wit. And that voice! His voice is brilliant both literally and metaphorically. I was blown away by Mr. Fry's knowledge and ability to contextualize. And he makes it all fun and entertaining!

Smart + fun dive into history of Marvel's stories

Revisado: 03-06-22

The premise sounded like an interesting, yet academic exercise. The book is anything but. The author jumps around Marvel's wild universe and timeline to highlight the greatest stories and important cultural moments. His passion is always there, but it never feels like and insider conversation from deep in the halls of Comic-Con. There's a great balance of understanding, exploration, explanation, love, fun and warmth.
It's also an excellent read, clear and strong. I enjoyed the while experience.

Love the story, love the read

Revisado: 05-19-21

I'd imagine this book is a very good read, but I'm so glad I experienced the audio version with the talented Ms. Cho performing the book.

Absolutely beautiful story with flawless narration

Revisado: 03-15-20

This is the art of audiobooks fully realized. This isn't just a book being read or a movie without images. This is a story come to life. Mr. Saenz capture the bigness of transitioning from child to adult. Mr. Miranda disappears into the story's protagonist in this very moving and honest story. The marriage of writer and narrator is flawless. I loved the experience of listening to this beautiful book.

Detailed telling of pivotal time in TV

Revisado: 03-15-20

The story of the Mary Tyler Moore Show coming together, telling great stories and it's impact on all involved was fascinating. The narration seems better suited for a children's or YA story. Good narrator, just the wrong tone for this book.

A charming story

Revisado: 01-26-20

it was great fun hearing the highs and lows of someone working their dream job. The author brings charm to the text and performance with openness and humor. Never gossipy, instead we get and insider's journal of working with celebrity. Ms. Coyne is ambitious, passional and self-aware. Ultimately, this book feel like a long conversation with a new friend.

I've always wanted to read this...

Revisado: 01-26-20

...and it didn't disappoint. This is a pillar of gay fiction and now I know why. I was completely drawn in to the collision of societal expectations and human nature. Considering when it was written, it's a miracle it even exists. I saw the movie when I was a young man and now I feel I've come full circle. I also enjoyed the excellent read, theatrical but never distracting from the story. It was perfect voice and perfect performance for this story.

That voice!

Revisado: 01-22-19

I expected to get a great story if rock and roll excess and I got it. But I didn't expect Mr. Idol to be so charming. He's doesn't hold back about his bad behavior, but he's fundamentally a decent guy. He's also a talented performer with a beautiful, gritty voice, all used to full potential here.
Dancing with Myself is a compelling story that's beautifully read. It's well-crafted, but the read feels spontaneous and intimate.
Recommended to anyone interested in the making of a rock star and life in the studio and spotlight.
