I did fly away!

Revisado: 03-02-25

This book paints very vivid images of a life and a time gone by. I hadn’t realized what a life changing opportunity a career as a Stewardess was for women then. The two protagonists lives are markedly different yet they both become similarly strong as women and professionals. A wonderful story about many things but as a woman blessed with deep friendships, this became a very personal story. Wonderful imagery, I felt like I was right there, in every scene, especially the travel scenes and it was a great “staycation!”

What?!? It’s Over?

Revisado: 05-15-24

I loved the first part of the story, laughed all the way through PJ’s first chapter but then it got progressively depressing. The character development was well done and the descriptions of their mental states so vivid you could feel their anxieties and worries and physical attractions as though they were your own. My only problem was that it was so depressing, but I was hooked in, so kept moving forward waiting for the payoff and I thought I was going to get it but at the moment of climax it was over.

I really enjoyed this book. I was there in every scene, experiencing the atmosphere. The emotion, the relationship, even the food and the climate it was perfect. Great books do that for you

This book offers a needed perspective to a terrible trend

I didn’t know when I started this book that it was about a school shooting. I live in San Antonio, 80 miles from the town of Uvalde, where 10 weeks ago a young man entered Robb Elementary killing 19 children and 2 adults to for me, the timing was good. Painful but a way to process and have suggested answers for the million questions: What was he thinking? What happened in his life to make him think this was a solution? What the heck kind of a family life did this shooter endure? And worst of all, how will the victims families go on? How troubled will all the youth at that school be…forever? There aren’t any “save the day” options in a story like this but it left me at peace. It IS a great book.

Read this and share with your kids.

This may be one of the best stories of the progression of America (hence the world) one can enjoy. I’m ashamed not to have known this Wall Street saga Or that Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse were contemporaries battling for “the” patent. Who knows this? All Americans and mainly American youth, need to hear this story and prayerfully be inspired to create.

A wonderful read that ended too soon.

I really enjoyed reading this book. My dad grew up in Brooklyn during this period and it brought a very real image of his life to mind. Tom (also my father’s name) was a favorite character, such a gentleman and a soldier. Thank you Camille Di Maio, for another terrific book!

“Almost a 10”

Revisado: 06-07-22

I did enjoy the book I just had a hard time with the voice of Morgan. Every time she was narrating a chapter it took me a few minutes to get over trying to figure out why it sounded so odd. I don’t know it sounded almost like it was a digitized voice. I tried slowing it down speeding it up at it didn’t help that much but other than that I really enjoyed the back
