Good detail turn of century mystery

Revisado: 08-25-24

I love the details of the writer. I find myself getting lost in the book. The story slowed a bit at times but at the end those slower parts became relevant. All in all a good listen

Disappointed-not his best

Revisado: 11-07-20

Not a Peter Grant storyline but still about a magic practitioner cop. The story felt rushed as if Mr Aaronovitch had to meet the deadline for publishing. There could have been so much more development since the story had new characters and was set in a different country. I hope the next one reverts to Mr Aaronovitchs genius character development.

Best book I’ve read in a long time!

Don’t be swayed by the pseudo southern accent and slow speech of the reader. Stick with it to the end. This book is absolutely amazing. I would recommend it to everyone!

A great short listen

Revisado: 04-24-19

I found this YA book interesting and a great listen for something that was a good filler. I was between books and needed something short for a flight. I usually listen to murder & mystery so this was a welcome change. I will recommend to my middle school daughter and would listen to others in this series.

Interesting perspective

Revisado: 04-08-19

This book left me wanting more. I was intrigued to learn about Madame Curie early beginnings. Even though fictionalized I wanted more at the end. The book ended only at the beginning of her career. I love the performance and It held my interest. This is the reason for four Stars. I would certainly listen to the remainder of the book if it existed.

I found my self between books and chose this for my commute home. Funny & witty. Wasn’t sure I would like the story after the first scene but couldn’t stop listening! You just have to live in the moment.

Wonderfully engaging

Revisado: 03-19-18

Absolutely couldn’t put this down! Read The Persimmon Tree and couldn’t wait to see how the lives of Nick and Anna turned out so bought this sequel- although it could be read independently and would be just as good. A little too much sexual content for my liking but read beyond this to the true story.

Enjoyable easy listening

I enjoyed these pulp fiction mysteries. Jack and Sarah make a fun team! Not too deep or involved. Short stories with enough length to feel like a full length novel.

Captivating

Revisado: 08-30-17

I love the story line of love and hope in the midst of tragic circumstances. The struggles of homelessness and abuse amidst courage and strength; a mixture of unconditional love and acceptance.

Good storyline

Revisado: 08-01-17

Enjoyed the storyline. You'd think those with simple lives would struggle with anxiety and depression. Good relational insight. Easy to follow
