Deserving of a Pulitzer

Revisado: 06-02-23

The layers in this story are astounding and impeccably fleshed out exactly as needed. The story is fiction, but the facts of history and still current today. The narration is is exceptionally well done. Kudos to Charlie Thurston and Barbara Kingsolver. I will never forget this book.

Excellent Listen

Revisado: 02-15-23

Sandwiched between green lights and a hard look at his own experiences are the anecdotes that point to how to live a life you love. Fun, enlivening, devastating, thoughtful, outrageous, and deep without trying. Read it. McConaughey has given us a map to living the life you want. His clarity and humor are a beacon to understanding. Fly toward that light like a moth in love with the moon.

Lovely Storytelling

Christopher Timothy was a brilliant narrator for this long time favorite read. Well done! He breathed life into every single character and distinguished them all. A well told, captivating story

Beautiful Story

Revisado: 02-23-22

Wonderfully read by the author, nobody sets a scene or sense of place like Barbara Kingsolver. The unfolding of this story was sometimes laugh at loud funny and sometimes gut wrenching. The characters are rich, the story memorable, and the history not to be forgotten. An unforgettable listen.

Brilliant Readings to Put the Active Mind to Rest

Revisado: 12-04-21

Molly and Kim have the most neutral, soothing voices to read one into a deep sleep. Individually they read from a collection of letters that may have been riveting at one time (debatable), but excerpted from the classic, the selected readings are out of context and uninteresting enough to coax the active mind into a relaxed state. Mind numbing, yet brilliant. It’s a massive improvement from the naps taken in high school English class. This is the way to quiet the mind and fall asleep naturally. Sweet dreams….

A Balm for the Wild Woman's Languishing Soul

Revisado: 01-05-19

A guide for reawakening and aligning with our true power, wherever one lives, be it urban or rural. A map back to ourselves without sugarcoating or false promises, but an enlivening experience of starting where you are. It is a remembering....a connection to what is true and what was born inside of us when we were born and lives there still....waiting to be remembered.

Wry, heartbreaking, and laugh out loud funny

Revisado: 09-04-16

Amy Schumer reading Amy Schumer is spot on hilarious. Yet the topics she covers are as unfunny as they come. Her vulnerability, generosity, and unflinching awareness of herself and what she observes and experiences makes her easily relatable and an outstanding storyteller. I listened while driving across the country and it was like having a good friend read her favorite book aloud to pass the time, except I was surprisingly expanded and deepened while I laughed along - the best feeling of all.

A Story Earworm - Can't stop thinking about it!

Revisado: 05-31-16

Captivating story with complex characters. The story unfolds with surprising twists and turns at a pace that keeps it interesting, but with enough time for the implications of what is going on to sink in. The unpredictable plot facilitated satisfying anxiety attacks during story turns. Melissa Williams' voice inflection and change in speech pattern as she switched between characters was incredible. Even when I stopped in the middle of a chapter and picked it up days later, I could recall from her tone and inflection exactly which character was thinking/speaking and where I had left off without starting at the beginning of the chapter - bonus! C'mon on Book 2!
