In her memoir, a work of deep reflection and mesmerizing storytelling, Michelle Obama invites listeners into her world, chronicling the experiences that have shaped her - from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work to her time spent at the world's most famous address. With unerring honesty and lively wit, she describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private, telling her full story as she has lived it - in her own words and on her own terms.

Like Sitting With a Friend
Revisado: 11-30-19
I was so looking forward to this book and Mrs. Obama did not disappoint. Honest and opener masterfully weaves a narrative that pulls you in from the first page. When it was done I felt like a friend had just left and I missed her

In 1921 a small group of self-appointed patriots set out to avenge the deaths of almost one million victims of the Armenian Genocide. They named their operation Nemesis after the Greek goddess of retribution. Over several years the men tracked down and assassinated former Turkish leaders. The story of this secret operation has never been fully told until now.

Where does Operation Nemesis rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I heard the author speak about this book back in 2015, and have purchased numerous copies for gifts, especially that year, the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Finally started listening to it and so glad I did. much more than what I expected...and so easy to listen to.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 65
The first-born son of his generation, Peter Balakian grew up in a close, extended family, sheltered by 1950s and '60s New Jersey suburbia. He was immersed in an all-American boyhood defined by rock 'n' roll, adolescent pranks, and a passion for the New York Yankees that he shared with his beloved grandmother. But beneath this sunny world lay the dark specter of the trauma his family and ancestors had experienced: the Turkish government's extermination of more than a million Armenians.

i will read this one...difficult to listen to
Revisado: 03-21-18
What did you like best about Black Dog of Fate? What did you like least?
I have been waiting to listen to this book for a long time. Finally, it was the right time and I downloaded it. And, the author is not the person to read this. He makes it too much of a poem and the cadence is difficult.

Given the importance of what they do, and the controversies that often surround them, and the violent people they sometimes confront, it is remarkable that in the history of this country only four active federal judges have been murdered. Judge Raymond Fawcett has just become number five.... Nothing is as it seems and everything’s fair game in this wickedly clever new novel from John Grisham, the undisputed master of the legal thriller.

fun read
Revisado: 04-25-13
Is there anything you would change about this book?
although it was a bit disjointed, and I kept wondering if I missed something, at the end there is a nice tie up of the loose ends.
What about J.D. Jackson’s performance did you like?
he was great
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
depends on who is in it...

Jane Austen’s classic novel chronicles the events in the lives of the Bennet family. Take a family with five unmarried daughters and a lack of wealth, throw in a new wealthy neighbor or two, plus a whole regiment of soldiers in town, and add a heaping spoonful of pride and a pinch of prejudice. Mix it all together and you get a story full of tears and laughter, embarrassment and pride, and, of course, love.
