Twists and turns... fun read!
Revisado: 07-21-20
Just when you thought you knew what was going on, the story takes off in another direction. It was like riding a well designed roller coaster. For real! I got lost in time, listening to the story. Besides hating the way the narrator slaughters the word “garage,” I completely enjoyed this story and the narration.

"Gaa-raadge" stung my ears every time ...
Revisado: 07-05-20
... the narrator said the word. Her pronunciation was so askew that the next several words went unheard. I'd have to rewind the tape and listen again ("ga-raadge" included) to get the line. I liked the story and most of the narration, but the way of saying 'ga-raadge' was unnerving. UPDATE: I've been told that "ga-raaadge" is the British pronunciation (I'm an American). Even if I were British, I would find the sound to be unnerving.

Historia
The start of everything is critically important - and every truly successful product or business starts with a successful launch. Unfortunately most entrepreneurs put all their focus into "getting the doors open" without giving much thought to creating a great launch. However, since 1996, Jeff Walker has been obsessed with creating hugely successful launches in our increasingly digital world. During those years Jeff created an unbroken string of amazing successes for himself and his clients.

The narrator’s voice didn’t agree with my ears
Revisado: 06-22-18
I loved the content of this book. I struggled to finish it because of the narrator’s voice, his annunciation, and his choice of when to really pounce on a word. His narration seemed to change over time - worse on my ears toward the final third of the book. Ouch!
I realize this is a very subjective opinion... and, my ears were happy the book ended. I will but the hard copy to revisit topics rather than listen again.

Not my favorite Andrew Greeley novel
Revisado: 05-27-18
Every time the narrator mentioned how he pined after his Nuala Anne...I wanted to hurl. It just felt so fake. I’m sorry, it just did...bleh!
Once I honed the ability to shut my ears when I heard the tidbits about his desire coming up, I was able to enjoy the rest of the story!

Historia
Are leaders born, or made? And what's the single most important quality a real leader should possess? Philosophers and management theorists have endlessly debated-and just as endlessly written about-these subjects for centuries. Finally, here's a book that cuts to the chase. In 68 of the most succinct, no-punches-pulled pages you'll ever read, acclaimed author-speaker-coach John Baldoni maintains that "leadership presence" is a form of communication that can be learned, and then provides the hows and the whys of learning it.

Great content...so far. Excruciating Delivery.
Revisado: 12-23-16
I willed myself to pull the content from what I was hearing. The reader's style and performance was displeasing to my ears, brain, and sensibilities. I did not complete the book as an audio book; instead, I will read it offline (the old fashioned way). I will have to work very hard to shake the narrator's condescending communication style from my internal "reading voice."

Historia
Seth Hubbard is a wealthy man dying of lung cancer. He trusts no one. Before he hangs himself from a sycamore tree, Hubbard leaves a new, handwritten, will. It is an act that drags his adult children, his Black maid, and Jake into a conflict as riveting and dramatic as the murder trial that made Brigance one of Ford County's most notorious citizens, just three years earlier. The second will raises far more questions than it answers. Why would Hubbard leave nearly all of his fortune to his maid? Had chemotherapy and painkillers affected his ability to think clearly?

Masterfully done!
Revisado: 12-12-16
John Grisham is a masterful storyteller, and Michael Beck a phenomenal narrator. I could see and hear the tale unfolding as if watching a movie inside my mind as I followed their words: Grisham's spoken by Beck. Loved it.

Historia
Modern life can seem like being lost in a jungle. With distractions and dangers emerging from every direction, it's easy to lose focus. Over time, we lose touch with one of our most powerful, purposeful, God-given attributes - the desire to be fruitful and multiply, what Bishop T. D. Jakes calls our "instinct for increase". Combining historical, cultural, and personal examples with biblical insights, in Instinct Bishop Jakes outlines how to rediscover your natural aptitudes and reclaim the wisdom of your past experiences.

Historia
Haller is a Lincoln Lawyer, a criminal defense pro who operates out of the backseat of his Lincoln Town Car, to defend clients at the bottom of the legal food chain. It's no wonder that he is despised by cops, prosecutors, and even some of his own clients. But an investigator is murdered for getting too close to the truth and Haller quickly discovers that his search for innocence has taken him face to face with a kind of evil as pure as a flame.

Great story! ...but the "mood music"? Bleh.
Revisado: 04-08-11
I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline and will probably buy the hardcopy book. The music inserted at key or climactic points was terribly distracting. However, that was the only thing I did not like about The Lincoln Lawyer. A cast of "real characters" is richly depicted: Mickey Haller and his ex-wives; cops and criminals; prosecutors and politicians; and, the Triple Evil that was Roulet, his mother, and her personal attorney. In fact, Roulet's character builds to be so awful that you will find yourself right there with Mickey Haller, so disgusted at hearing his name or 'voice' that your words spit from your mouth, betraying your typically tightly controlled actions with the voice of an inner truth about your belief, your life, what and who you love... your very essence.

I am lukewarm - about the ending.
Revisado: 04-08-11
Parts of the story grabbed me, and I "couldn't put it down" to get to bed at a decent time. And then the story winded down - to a rather wimpy ending. It was as if I had attended a storyteller's convention, and someone were rushing this storyteller to get off the stage - leaving me in the audience, bemused, befuddled, and wishing for a better ending.
