I love the way Gabino weaves myths and social commentary together to make a rich story that is not only compelling but powerful.

Lovely and Endearing

Revisado: 11-13-24

I love the Miranda-esque way she presented her journey as well as the content provided. I've always found her books and comedy to be soothing for the soul and this one was no different. I am forever grateful for the treasure of Miranda Hart and they ways she's help me to be me.

Not bad.

Revisado: 01-11-24

I like the set up at first but something about the writing style was a bit jarring. I don't know if the narrator reading everything (even the omniscient bits) in Faulk's voice made it that way. The whodunit part was a bit underwhelming and felt very stitched in at the end. I think adding more crumbs through out (about gambling or even gaming machines) would have made it more meaningful.

Perfection

Revisado: 09-29-23

Every new installment in this series I think, "this is my favorite." And this is no exception. I loved it from start to finish even though my heartached so much for so many of our beloved characters. ❤ This was gripping and intriguing. The UHC was so well written. I 100% recommend!

Good Not Great

Revisado: 09-08-23

I love Holly's character but this book didn't seem to have the same Holly I used to which I attribute to two things: a different narrator and she's "growing up."

Justine Lupe has a wonderful voice, but I missed Will Patton.

Something about this book didn't strike the same chords as other stories that feature her, but that doesn't mean it's not worth listening to. I liked the plot but think it could have been written as a short story instead of a novel.

Finished it but didn't love it

Revisado: 05-07-23

I liked this book more in theory than actuality. The concept of book 1 was delightful, but felt cheapened by the more fantastical elements which were doubled down on in the book. The style is well written as with the last book but some of the character logic through out the story seemed more like author intrusion. Without containing spoilers, I found Hazel's thinking about Jack to be forced and seemingly out of her character. While we all have foibles when it comes to thinking with the heart hers seemed ridiculous and prolong for the sheer drama of it. I would have much preferred her thinking to be correct with an alternative ending than to have such incongruous characterization. 🤷‍♀️

Nonstop Laughter

Revisado: 04-27-23

I loved this from beginning to end. It's funny, sweet, and freeing. Miranda's comedy is like medicine for my soul. Word from the wise, don't listen to while exercising. I would laugh so hard it became disruptive to my workout. 🤣

Another great book from North

Revisado: 03-02-23

This novel is different style than North's previous novels but equally fantastic. I love his ability to portray the evils carried out by humans as some bordering on super natural. The story is more of a slow burn, but worth the journey.

Easy Listen and Overall, Pretty Good

Revisado: 09-30-22

I wanted to love this book, but certain elements made the overall storyline fall flat. I think the story is good not great. The plot is pretty predictable but not unenjoyable. I really enjoyed the concepts and the writing was good. I just have some criticisms of choices the author made regarding the explanation of library and the creation of the character Hugo, who's mere existence took away from the story, for me anyway.

Amazing

Revisado: 09-16-22

I feel like King showed his bookworm status in this book. This book is intriguing and well-written from start to finish, I loved every second. This story is like the love child of King's imagination with so many story from Lovecraft, Bradbury, to Grimm.
