Historia
Nestled in the bucolic town of Green Valley in upstate New York, the Pennywort farm appears ordinary, yet at its center lies something remarkable: a wild maze of colorful gardens that reaches beyond the imagination. Local legend says that a visitor can gain answers to life's most difficult problems simply by walking through its lush corridors. Yet the labyrinth has never helped Olivia Pennywort, the garden's beautiful and enigmatic caretaker.

exactly what you think

Completely predictable, no surprises. More than a little sappy, but sometimes we need this.

Historia
George Orwell depicts a gray, totalitarian world dominated by Big Brother and its vast network of agents, including the Thought Police - a world in which news is manufactured according to the authorities' will and people live tepid lives by rote. Winston Smith, a hero with no heroic qualities, longs only for truth and decency. But living in a social system in which privacy does not exist and where those with unorthodox ideas are brainwashed or put to death, he knows there is no hope for him.

Was Orwell a clairvoyant or a time traveler? Or has the Party used his work as a guidebook?

Historia
Deputy coroner Mattie Winston knows a thing or two about dead bodies. That's why she's on the case of Derrick Ames, a high school math teacher stabbed to death with a barbecue fork straight to the heart. Sure, she's turned up some motives and a few suspects, but nothing adds up. Especially when the evidence points to Ames's teenage son. Newly pregnant Mattie can't believe it, even as her own long-estranged father may be following her.

Still one of my favorite series.
Revisado: 08-02-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, I have already.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Stiff Penalty?
Mattie Winston is young, fresh, and a regular woman. I like the way she says things and explains the work she does. She has good instincts and seems thorough in her work. The adventures are often hilarious but not slap stick. As usual, the series is about her work as an assistant coroner with the gore and complications. And her romance with the police detective, Steve H. This book included her having his baby, being targeted by a killer and dealing with becoming a single mother. In, addition dealing with his teen daughter who is jealous. Many modern issues.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, I usually take my time reading these books. I enjoy relaxing while I listen to them.
Any additional comments?
I must say that besides the writing, the narration makes this book come to life. Jorjeana Marie IS Mattie Winston.

Historia
Winter Makepeace lives a double life. By day he's the stoic headmaster of a home for foundling children. But the night brings out a darker side of Winter. As the moon rises, so does the Ghost of St. Giles-protector, judge, fugitive. When the Ghost, beaten and wounded, is rescued by a beautiful aristocrat, Winter has no idea that his two worlds are about to collide. Lady Isabel Beckinhall enjoys nothing more than a challenge. Yet when she's asked to tutor the Home's dour manager in the ways of society, Isabel can't help wondering why his eyes seem so familiar - and his lips so tempting.

One of the Best Series Ever!
Revisado: 07-23-12
Would you listen to Thief of Shadows again? Why?
I LOVE this series. Ms Hoyt is an excellent writer. I don't necessarily listen to the same book twice, but I definitely look forward to the next in the series!
What does Ashford MacNab bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her voice is perfect for this series, she pulls you in and weaves a spell.

Historia
It was whispered all through London society that he was a murderer, that he'd spent his youth in an asylum and was not to be trusted - especially with a lady. Any woman caught in his presence was immediately ruined. Yet Beth found herself inexorably drawn to the Scottish lord whose hint of a brogue wrapped around her like silk and whose touch could draw her into a world of ecstasy.

Needs a Different Narrator!!!
Revisado: 07-23-12
The story was okay, more sexual than believable. How one could build a life with such a violent taciturn man is beyond me. I was distracted by the narrator's style, she reads as if each sentence is a breathless cliffhanger. I notice she does the same in the rest of the series(I checked it out and she doesn't read that way for American contemporaries!!??). And her UK accents are just atrocious. I wish it weren't so. This series needs different narrator, someone who does the accent justice before I would even try the next book in the series.

In many ways, Carrie Parker is like any other eight-year-old: playing make-believe, dreading school, dreaming of faraway places. But even her imaginative mind can't shut out the realities of her impoverished North Carolina home or help her protect her younger sister, Emma.

Emma and me
Revisado: 04-07-09
I really enjoyed this book. The author captured the true essence of what trauma is all about. The narrator captured the sense of the child in that type of situation. The ending was truly unpredicted. I had a hard time putting the book down. It put me there in that very place! A disturbing but true to life story.

This was such a lovely find. I love books that are not bleak and depressing yet still remain hearty and thought provoking. This is one of them.

I enjoyed this book so much. It was quirky and fun. I loved the characters. Willie is on a quest through the past. She must find the truth about her family history. And what an inventive and fantastical story unfolds. I highly recommend this one!
