Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 15
Summer, 1989. It is a time for splashing in the lake and exploring the wilderness, for nine teenagers to bond together and create friendships that could last the rest of their lives. But among this group there is a young man with a secret—a secret that, in this time and place, is unthinkable to his peers. When the others discover the truth, it will change each of them forever. They will all have blood on their hands. Odd Man Out is a heart-wrenching tale of bullies and bigotry, a story that explores what happens when good people don't stand up for what's right.

Upsetting, thought provoking
Revisado: 08-16-22
I listened to Odd Man Out in one go. it was upsetting, but didn't take the violence to that place where it seems like it's supposed to be fun or something. It had me thinking all about times when I chose not to speak up because I was scared of the bullies or of being ostracized. I thought it was really well written. The narration was wonderful. Curtis pulled me right into the story, created distinct characters, and really made me feel it.

For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand.

Beautiful story, wonderfully narrated
Revisado: 05-07-22
I loved this book. I really didn't want it to end. I see reviewers asking where the action is, or where the plot twist is... this is not that kind of book. Cassandra Campbell does an excellent job narrating.

An impressive, unsettling novella
Revisado: 10-23-21
The Stop has a lot of impact. W. Dale Jordan's characters became very real to me in a very short time. I found myself caring about these people (well, not all of these people). The Stop approaches the subject of cruising and sex work in a very humanizing and honest way. The acts portrayed on the page, in the hands of some authors, would be played for shock value, but Jordan's characters are written so sensitively that their humanity shines through. I could have spent more time with these characters, but I think the novella length works well for telling this story.
Kenneth Fuentes does an excellent job taking us on this journey. His pacing, and portrayal of the characters was spot-on. The first person narrative of Donnie is delivered in a way that connects emotionally while also catching the seeming inevitability of events as they unfold.
There is certainly revenge and horror in this story, but there is also warmth and humanity. Well worth your time.

A teen mother raises her daughter on a looping road trip, living hand-to-mouth in motel rest stops and backwater towns, stepping occasionally into the heat and chaos of the surrounding cities. A life without permanence, filled with terrors and joys, their stability is dependent on the strangers - and strange men - they meet along the way.

Doll Crimes is beautifully written by Karen Runge. It broke my heart over and over again, but I was happy to let it do so. Linda Jones' narration is wonderful, as usual. I was hanging onto every word, with my heart in my throat.

I like a good action-packed thriller, and this checked all the boxes for me. Erik Carter has written a character that I wanted to know more about, and Gary Bennett gives an excellent performance.
