Historia
Ever since I met my handsome husband Dr Gabe Bonneville, I started playing the role of the perfect housewife. He works hard as a surgeon, so I look after our home, and throw elaborate dinner parties with champagne cocktails for his best friends Hugh and Anita. He’s my safe place and my chance to have the family I’ve always wanted. I’ve managed to hide the mornings when I wake up and see a face in the shadows. I haven’t told Gabe the truth about the woman who raised me, or told him about the therapy I’ve been getting so my secrets stay hidden in the dark.

Fantastic narration
Revisado: 03-16-25
Fast-paced and compelling story with flowing and believable dialogue. Right amount of mystery without getting into the weeds. The narration was excellent, sans cringeworthy accents or voices.

Historia
Steph doesn't care that Bran is totally blind - at least he'll never notice the longing looks she gives him. If only she could warn him about the lack of love on his conniving fiancee's face. But Steph has to keep her mouth shut, or she could lose her job, along with the health insurance that keeps her daughter alive. Billionaire Branson Knight knows women regard him as a pitiful blind man, his wealth his only attraction. So his engagement is merely a means to an end. But the last thing he wants to end is his relationship with Stephanie.

Disappointed
Revisado: 03-07-25
The storyline is weak, characters not developed, and their mutual attraction is nonsensical. I had a hard time finishing it, but I hung in there rooting for it to improve- which never happened. At least it was free.

Historia
Is it possible to write a sidesplitting novel about the breakup of the perfect marriage? If the writer is Nora Ephron, the answer is a resounding yes. For in this inspired confection of adultery, revenge, group therapy, and pot roast, the creator of Sleepless in Seattle reminds us that comedy depends on anguish as surely as a proper gravy depends on flour and butter.

I expected more
Revisado: 10-11-24
Meryl Streep’s narration was lovely- but Ephron’s dated homophobic & racist rants were disappointing, I suppose that’s what I get for reading the book 40+ years after publication. Did not meet my expectations.

AI Narration Killed This Book
Revisado: 09-21-24
I tried this book when it popped up in my suggestions, partly bc I was curious about the simulated voice narration, The story was ok, the main characters interesting, but ugh, the robot just couldn’t capture the cadence of the language. I hope this author gets a chance with a real live narrator next time.

Clever and Well-Written
Revisado: 10-13-23
Mrs Pollifax continues to grow on me. These stories are fast-paced with a good deal of wry humor with some surprising twists thrown in. Some dated language (specifically the use adjectives describing POC) may offend, but IMO the strong female characters balance out those shortcomings. Very entertaining!

Intriguing series stands up to test of time.
Revisado: 10-02-23
I wasn’t sure what to expect from a series of “spy” novels written >50 years ago, but was pleasantly surprised. If you can forgive some outdated language and cultural stereotypes, you may also find the Mrs Pollifax books very entertaining. Elderly female protagonist solves problems and breaks the glass ceiling… not bad for 1960’s.

Hadley Donavan can’t believe she has to go home to Nebraska for her sister’s wedding. She’s gonna need a wingman and a whole lot of vodka for this level of family interaction. At least her bestie agreed he’d man up and help. But then instead of her best friend, his evil twin strolls out of the airport.

Entertaining yet predictable
Revisado: 05-18-23
Cute story, but it was a little predictable. What I didn’t expect, though, was the explicit language. That doesn’t bother me, but it would be good to have a heads up- just in case you listen out loud in public, lol.

Historia
Kentucky, 1850. An enslaved groom named Jarret and a bay foal forge a bond of understanding that will carry the horse to record-setting victories across the South. When the nation erupts in civil war, an itinerant young artist who has made his name on paintings of the racehorse takes up arms for the Union. On a perilous night, he reunites with the stallion and his groom, very far from the glamor of any racetrack.

Engaging and Well Written Story
Revisado: 04-13-23
I loved this story, and was engrossed from the first chapter. Sure, I suppose it helps that I’m a horse lover and studied a bit of art history and am fascinated by history in general. The many characters and time jumps from the ante-bellum period to the present made perfect sense to me. I liked how the main (human) character Jarrett was used to reveal the little known fact that black men were sometimes noted horsemen, deserving of a place in history for their accomplishments. The parallels between the enslaved groom/trainer and “his” horse are presented both subtly and overtly. I think this is a wonderfully written story, and its only shortcoming imho is the oddly violent ending, which seemed clumsy and unnecessary to me.

Comfortable like a well-worn sweatshirt, but the weird voices (and especially the phony-sounding drawl) of the male characters is starting to get to me.
