Revisado: 04-04-21
The storyline is predictable and stupid. the female character is totally UNBELIEVABLE. She is trying to recreate the plot of the terminator, without the robot. The "twist and turns" of this" thriller " are just in the author's head....this book is bad in all levels
Don't waste you credit on this garbage.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 460
Throughout history, women have played integral roles in family, society, religion, government, war - in short, in all aspects of human civilization. Powerful women have shaped laws, led rebellions, and played key roles in dynastic struggles. Some were caught up in forces beyond their control, while others manipulated and murdered their way to the top. However, unearthing their stories from the historical record has been a challenge, with the ordinary difficulties of preserving information across the generations increased by centuries of historical bias and gendered expectations.

If you were looking for uplifting stories about women...this book is not for you.
The narrator makes this book even worse. Her voice is unbearable.

Graham Greene’s evocative analysis of the love of self, the love of another, and the love of God is an English classic that has been translated for the stage, the screen, and even the opera house. Academy Award-winning actor Colin Firth (The King’s Speech, A Single Man) turns in an authentic and stirring performance for this distinguished audio release.

Michael Pollan, known for his best-selling nonfiction audio, including The Omnivores Dilemma and How to Change Your Mind, conceived and wrote Caffeine: How Caffeine Created the Modern World as an Audible Original. In this controversial and exciting listen, Pollan explores caffeine’s power as the most-used drug in the world - and the only one we give to children (in soda pop) as a treat.

Boring
Revisado: 07-17-20
At time I nwas wishing the author would be on cocaine in order to write a more compelling story.....or report, whatever this was.
poorly researched...and the narrator's voice is droning and monotone.....not even a triple espresso would make this boring report interesting.

From breakout stand-up comedian Iliza Shlesinger comes a subversively funny collection of essays and observations on a confident woman's approach to friendship, singlehood, and relationships. "Girl Logic" is Iliza's term for the way women obsess over details and situations that men don't necessarily even notice. She describes it as a characteristically female way of thinking that appears to be contradictory and circuitous but is actually a complicated and highly evolved way of looking at the world.

Where's zero stars button!!!
Revisado: 05-12-20
The book is well written and it flows nicely. The author does a great job of reading and conveying her ideas.......B U T!
This book is about her, and quite honestly, who is she?!
Is she a comedian? Is she an activist? what is her deal? Her book is H O R R I B L E!
Is this review Gender Discrimination?
Would you buy a book by an unfunny, bitter, male comedian with no wit?
I want my money back....with interest!

In 2017, a routine network television investigation led to a story only whispered about: one of Hollywood’s most powerful producers was a predator, protected by fear, wealth, and a conspiracy of silence. As Farrow drew closer to the truth, shadowy operatives, from high-priced lawyers to elite war-hardened spies, mounted a secret campaign of intimidation, threatening his career, following his every move, and weaponizing an account of abuse in his own family.

RF you got yourself a new fan. I really enjoyed this book and your reporting.
I commend you for your effort and courage. At the same time, I'm a little disappointed that you failed to mentioned Bill Clinton when you cover the Epstein chapter. Their relationship is well documented....and yet, not a single mention.
Your sister would say...."You are covering for him"

In 1941 a 31-year-old Frenchwoman, a young mother born to privilege and known for her beauty and glamour, became the leader of a vast intelligence organization - the only woman to serve as a chef de résistance during the war. Strong-willed, independent, and a lifelong rebel against her country’s conservative, patriarchal society, Marie-Madeleine Fourcade was temperamentally made for the job. No other French spy network lasted as long or supplied as much crucial intelligence. Fourcade was captured twice by the Nazis - and both times she managed to escape.

Completely missed the target.
Revisado: 01-29-20
It is a good story, and it was well written, BUT, I truly believe the author missed the target. instead of giving us a female hero, she gave us an attention seeker, bad mother, with no morals and loose attitude.... I guess I was expecting more out a book dedicated to this lady.

Nikki Haley is widely admired for her forthright manner (“with all due respect, I don’t get confused”), her sensitive approach to tragic events, and her confident representation of America’s interests as our ambassador to the United Nations during times of crisis and consequence. In this book, Haley offers a firsthand perspective on major national and international matters as well as a behind-the-scenes account of her tenure in the Trump administration.

Nikki Haley is amazing!
I was really impressed with her performance while she was an embassador at the UN.
Mrs. Haley is a strong, caring, and intelligent woman. Her work ethic and moral standards make her a role model for men and women alike.
The book is well written and entertaining. It flows.
She was the perfect choice for the narration of her own work. Her voice is firm and soothing.
What can I say? I love Nikki Haley.... I'm a fan.
