Told primarily through conversations, The Tuesday Girl is raw, witty, emotional, and ultimately inspirational. Tanya takes the listener on intimate dates, walks with friends, and conversations with people in her life. She falls in love with someone who she is certain is different from anyone she’s ever met, only to discover that he is a conman. Through it all, she relies on her friend Erin and learns that romance isn’t something that just happens in books—it’s something that runs throughout your own life.

Resilience after love, divorce and betrayal
Revisado: 01-17-25
I was so pleasantly surprised by this book. It takes you on a a journey of discovery - sometimes painful, sometimes joyous, sometimes reckless. It seems to me the story of many people in the modern era, trying for love, and sometimes it doesn't work out - and maybe leads to something better. Anyone in a "toxic" relationship and looking for a story to resonate with, this is a great choice.

This warm-hearted tale explores marriage, love, and longing, set against the majestic backdrop of Morecambe Bay, the Lakeland Fells, and the faded splendour of the Midland Hotel. Ted Marshall meets Rene in the dance halls of Morecambe and they marry during the frail optimism of the 1950s. They adopt the roles expected of man and wife at the time: He the breadwinner at the family ceramics firm, and she the loyal housewife. But as the years go by, they find themselves wishing for more...

Beautiful in every way. Loved the narration. Simple life, misunderstandings, and love. Great for a tea by the fire.

it was a good listen, interesting but mildly predictable. The performance was rather good. I was glad I listened but it's not one I will go back to.

Seventeen-year-old Simon’s sister Charlotte is missing. The lonely Fenland village the family recently moved to from London is odd, silent, and mysterious. Simon is epileptic and his seizures are increasing in severity, but when he is told of the local curse of the Naseby Horses, he is convinced it has something to do with Charlotte’s disappearance. Despite resistance from the villagers, the police, and his own family, Simon is determined to uncover the truth, and save his sister.

A Hidden Gem!
Revisado: 07-11-21
This story was captivating, the narration was incandescent. I was so caught up in this audiobook it was hard to turn it off. It skillfully entwines the story of a brother and sister (twins) who have moved from the city to the country when a catastrophe happens. The link between the two and the teenage boy's life with epilepsy pull you into this dark but beautiful way he sees the world. The family struggles with their past and present and it will break you heart. I cried more than once - I was on the edge of my seat and loved every minute. I can imagine this made into a movie - seriously. The images were so vivid in my mind - a combination of the entrancing narration of Robin Morrison and the immaculately crafted words of Brownlow. You should listen to this audiobook. It's a great one, maybe off the beaten path, but well worth the buy. I have listen twice, and I rarely do that.

Now, decades later, she’s an acclaimed medium and host of her own widely viewed TV show, where she delivers messages to the living from loved ones who have passed. Lately, though, her efforts to boost ratings and garner fame have compromised her clairvoyant instincts. When Serenity books a young war widow to appear as a guest, the episode quickly unravels, stirring up a troubling controversy.

This was a shorty, and I was planning to just listen when I was waiting for my kid at sports practice. The stories both captured me! I couldn't turn it off and listened in one go. Both narrators were great. the stories surprised me and I Rebecca Lowman broke my heart (and I was happy for the good cry!)

I loved this book. The narration was impeccable. I started to predict a few of the plot twists but, in general was entrenched in the story. I highly recommend this one!

In a strange room in Morocco, Mary Russell is trying to solve a pressing mystery: Who am I? She has awakened with shadows in her mind, blood on her hands, and soldiers pounding on the door. Out in the hivelike streets, she discovers herself strangely adept in the skills of the underworld, escaping through alleys and rooftops, picking pockets and locks. She is clothed like a man, and armed only with her wits and a scrap of paper containing a mysterious Arabic phrase. Overhead, warplanes pass ominously north.

Boring. Snore. Snore. Snore.
Revisado: 02-05-15
The story is overly convoluted and filled with more historical information than necessary. I usually love this series but this one was not worth the time. The performance of the actor playing Holmes was dull as dishwater and it seems more like a reading than a performance.
Disappointed.

If you are as picky as me about narrators this may be hard to listen to at first. He choice to make Holmes such a thanklessly unrelenting whine can be distracting and does his character a disservice. In other instances the performance is excellent. The story is fantastic. That is why I kept listening. I'm glad I stuck to it, but her Scott's accent was appalling and halting.

Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.
