So enthusiastic!

SyMontgomery’s experience was magical for her, and it came through clearly in her narration. I learned a lot, it was a very uplifting memoir.

What a marvelous listen!

Revisado: 02-05-23

The classic story is so worth one’s time on its own, but to listen to the incomparable Sissy Spacek perform it is a gift to oneself. Love-love-loved it, every last word. I’m recommending it to everyone I know!

A Tough but Meaningful Listen

Revisado: 12-28-22

I loved a recovering alcoholic once - a forbidden love - who said if we went any further with our “mustn’t” relationship, he was afraid he would start drinking again. Hearing Perry’s very painful, difficult story reminded me why I was able to stop pursuing a love I couldn’t have because ultimately I wanted my lover to live and thrive, even if not with me. Likewise, it’s vital that Matthew Perry lives and thrives too. Thanks for this tough but important memoir.

Wow — so brave and so important

Revisado: 07-02-21

While difficult to keep track of all the many names and titles of people Ronan Farrow brought to light in this very thorough story, it matters so very much to listen to or read. Will it change how powerful men sexually abuse women in the workplace, especially in entertainment and media? This should be required reading/listening for anyone wanting a career in the news business. It’s a cultural high mark, even though it exposes such brutal and ugly truths. Ronan defines investigative journalism. Congratulations to him for his bravery and honesty.

Stilted and Not Well performed

Revisado: 09-21-20

Didn’t finish this one. I found the actors too formal and difficult to follow. Nice idea but not well executed.

Left Me Breathless

Revisado: 09-28-19

“She Said” is important beyond words. We all need to hear the story itself about what women have endured and kept silent how badly they were abused by men with power. Equally interesting and compelling is the explanation of the intense process of good and correct investigative journalism. So very glad I listened to this book. Am recommending highly to all my friends.

A fun walk-back through recent history

Revisado: 02-22-18

David Litt knows how to craft story out of episodes and events. And he’s very funny. Really enjoyed the Listen although in the last two chapters, he gets a little sing-song. But it’s a good one, good for the commute!

What a dear and beautiful story!

Revisado: 01-13-18

I loved every word. We should all go on a walk with only ourselves and what is in our hearts to figure out. Perfectly written by Rachel Joyce and perfectly read by Jim Broadbent. Really a great listen.

Outstanding. A "must listen & share"

Revisado: 08-02-17

This book is riveting and should be on the Must Listen list of anyone who could not believe what went down in the election of 2016. Great writing and so very important for understanding the quandary we are in now. Five stars!

The Lies Drew Me Into

Revisado: 03-05-17

I got the book because I wanted to get a jump on the HBO series and didn't expect it to be Australian. Not being used to the Aussie accent, I almost gave up on it at first. But I'm glad I stayed with it. The characters and their angles drew me in. Good storytelling all the way through.
