When celebrated writer Joan Didion’s life was altered forever, she wrote a new chapter. In this adaptation of her iconic memoir, Didion transforms the story of the shattering loss of her husband and their daughter into a one-woman play performed by Tony Award winner Vanessa Redgrave, who originated the role on Broadway in 2007.

Fragility
Revisado: 03-04-25
The line between comforting, reality & haunting crossed repeatedly until my emotions just accepted it. Grief doesn't have options or expectations; it's a blurry state of mind that floats over you. This book helped me understand the bargaining of grief.

Very flat
Revisado: 09-12-23
This read like a slow ride to the next city block. The subject wasn't new, and the outcome was obvious without hoopla. The other characters had more to offer and should have been the focus.

Twenty-six-year-old editorial assistant Nella Rogers is tired of being the only Black employee at Wagner Books. Fed up with the isolation and microaggressions, she’s thrilled when Harlem-born and bred Hazel starts working in the cubicle beside hers. They’ve only just started comparing natural hair care regimens, though, when a string of uncomfortable events elevates Hazel to Office Darling, and Nella is left in the dust.

Slow ride to disappointment
Revisado: 06-07-23
I've had this one for months; I started and stopped several times. Based on the "cover" I was determined to read and review it. After getting a vibe of a disappointing ending, I still kept going against my better judgment. Wagner strikes again!

Good longer than needed listen
Revisado: 03-05-23
I went back and forth over buying this one due to the "too long" reviews. The reviews were right; HOWEVER, it was a subject not many cover and care was needed. I enjoyed the slow simmering intimate conversations about loss and marriage.

This book was referred by Audible as I would have never picked it for myself. I blindly added it to my library never questioning it. This book now makes me question EVERYTHING.

Story salad! A bunch of subjects in book form.
Revisado: 12-06-19
This book struggled. The story was going in different directions without exploring the subject... I don't know if this was a love story or an std/sexual abuse recovery guide. With focus, it could have been way more interesting than it was.

Eric Jerome Dickey strides boldly over the minefield that is modern marriage. The central couple's biggest challenge is timing: He works days; she works nights. Instead of growing together, they're rapidly drifting apart, coexisting on stolen phone calls from work, punctuated by occasional bedroom encounters that leave them both feeling even emptier and more alone. When she finds out about his affair - and starts her own - the delicate fabric of their marriage is torn irrevocably asunder. Or is it?

It's been a while since EJD works touched me. I've read almost everything he's written; however this one so different from him? He books have always bold scenery with complex people however is just about the depths of love and hurt. EJD is different this and I loved the new him! So private and personal. Great job!

Katherine Nichols knew she’d had too many drinks, but they were only going a short distance. “There’s no traffic anyway,” Eve had pointed out. And they'd had such a great night out, the two of them. Even now, driving them home and knowing she shouldn’t, seemed almost mischievous. All part of the fun. Not anymore.

When Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields, she thinks all she’ll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave.

Revisado: 07-12-19
I wasted a credit! Previous book was really good but this was such a waste. Why? it took forever to get to an uneventful ending. I knew it was BAD early on do I keep going hoping it would get better. Ultimately finished it solely because I just hate leaving a book unfinished.
