compendium review

Revisado: 11-06-15

I received this in exchange for honest and unbiased review. The book is a good listen when you are not distracted. Thank you for the rewind button on my kindle. I had to listen to the beginning a few times because I got confused, plus my kids were bothering me, even with headphones on. This is a good book to read.

The publicist

Revisado: 12-24-14

I received this book in exchange for honest review. I loved listening to the book. I tried to Chromecast it to play on the tv, while cleaning, but Silverlight didn't like me. So, I turned off the tv and listened from the computer.

Kate is a publicist, who helps upcoming authors with their books. In the first scene, she is helping one, hysterical author, keep from jumping off a ledge. Kate also has a crush on an editor at work (Mac), who is married, but is cheating.

I think the scene, which grabbed me the most, was when George focused on Mac's wife miscarriage, 20 or so years ago. I really felt for his wife, since I had a miscarriage before. The wife withdrew and moved into a separate room. She also has not been intimate with her husband since.

Then, you have Grace, Kate's good friend, who tries to keep Kate on the straight and narrow, especially from falling for Mac.

The book flowed well from one chapter to the next. I was on chapter 11 within a few hours. I also loved the scene, where Bernie, a low grade editor, forgets to order enough books for a book signing, Kate is helping promote. When Kate arrives at the book signing to set-up, she learns Bernie only ordered 20 books, when 200 people have arrived to see the authors.

Kate is not trying to fail because she has a hot book, she was promised to help promote, which will help jumpstart her career. No more hysterical authors to keep from jumping. or authors crying over a bad review (which I know the feeling)

Sam Jackson narrating the book.

I liked everything.

History's greatest generals review (Tomoson)

Revisado: 03-04-14

What did you love best about History's Greatest Generals?

I loved learning the history behind the Generals.

What other book might you compare History's Greatest Generals to and why?

not sure.

What does Kevin Pierce bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Pierce brought the book to life. I love history but don't always want to read a book. Even if I read the book, I may get bored quickly. I loved listening to the audio about the battles and victories.

Any additional comments?

I received the audio, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson.
