Not what I expected

Revisado: 01-18-22

From the reviews and awards, I was expecting much more from this story. It was very disappointing because it just didn’t make any sense.

I am a child of the 50’s. Although my family was not rich, and we certainly did not live with the uncertainty of this family, I just could not believe that a reasonably intelligent African American young person would subject themselves to this type of experimentation for money.

I certainly understood why she felt she had to do it but if she died who would have helped her mother then. Just not what I was expecting.

Very intriguing short story

Revisado: 08-13-20

This story was an intriguing look at how easily some of us take things for granted when we meet people. It always easy as we read to think that things that happen are so obvious and how you would be so alert but if you are a trusting individual you might just not notice. I’m not so sure but I know I’m cynical.

Good story in any case worth the 2 hour listen.

Standard

This was an interesting story in keeping with a typical Easy Rawlins twist but the performance was little to be desired.

Interesting Biography

She does curse a lot that being said some of the episodes in her life were funny and complicated but some of her philosophy seemed contrived. I believe she believes she is happy in the skin she is in but she still came off as a white girl.

Amazing

What a wonderful story. It made me laugh and cry. Trevor Noah brought his life to life for me in the engaging way he spun his story.

Another good read

I love the way Walter Mosley waxes philosophical with his Easy Rawlins character. Easy has such a command on his world even in the confusion that is his life I really like his stories

Thoroughly enjoyable with reservations

I loved the twist and turns of this story. I did not enjoy as I often don't the subjugation of women to their husbands.

Not what I expected

Revisado: 04-18-16

The overall story was memorable. The characters were rich and believable. My only comment was the performance. Many times the voice of each character seemed the same so it was hard to determine who was talking.

Very moving.

Page turner

Revisado: 10-13-15

Dan Brown always weaves a good story with many twist and turns you don't see at first. Loved the story premise as this is or should be a concern to the global community.

Although it should never be the decision of one individual nor do I think that a solution such as depicted in the book would be a decision anyone would make lightly.

I would definitely recommend this to all science fiction fans.
