Biltmore House, a palatial mansion being built by the Vanderbilts, American “royalty,” is in its final stages of construction in North Carolina. The country’s grandest example of privilege, it symbolizes the aspirations of its owner and the dreams of a girl, just as driven, who lives in its shadow. Kerry MacGregor’s future is derailed when, after two years in college in New York City, family obligations call her home to the beautiful Appalachians.

I think the narration is the issue
Revisado: 12-11-23
I have read so many chapters of this book but I cannot tell you what is going on. Narration is not engaging. Tough listen. I plan to ask for refund

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Transparent
Revisado: 01-07-21
I’m struggling to finish. I enjoyed the first book and wanted to hear what happened next. Honestly, I was disappointed from the beginning of this book. I didn’t like where it starts. Then the main character is more and more transparent. The people around her must be complete idiots to not see.

It can’t be over!
Revisado: 09-29-20
I read this because I watched the show on Hulu. I watched it all in one day because it sucked me right in! I couldn’t wait to see what happened next so I got the book, only to find out that was it! The end! There needs to be a second book. I don’t go for much romance or books that make me cry, but this book really got me. I just love the main characters. I love that they are broken and that together they feel whole. Beautiful

Bayr of Saylok, bastard son of a powerful and jealous chieftain, is haunted by the curse once leveled by his dying mother. Bartered, abandoned, and rarely loved, she plagued the land with her words: From this day forward, there will be no daughters in Saylok. Raised among the Keepers at Temple Hill, Bayr is gifted with inhuman strength. But he’s also blessed with an all-too-human heart that beats with one purpose: to protect Alba, the first girl child born in nearly two decades and the salvation for a country at risk.

I really didn’t think I’d like this book. From the beginning, it was excellent! I wish I could find more books this great. I don’t give 5 stars lightly. I’d give more if I could.

With each section end, I both hated the interruption and was excited to hear the next section! I loved the story and loved how it was written. The narrators were great as well. I RARELY give 5 stars but this book was top notch.

In a narrative as beguiling and mysterious as memory itself - shadowed and luminous at once - we follow the story of 14-year-old Nathaniel, and his older sister, Rachel. In 1945, just after World War II, they stay behind in London when their parents move to Singapore, leaving them in the care of a mysterious figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and they grow both more convinced and less concerned as they come to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women joined by a shared history of unspecified service during the war.

Some parts were good. I wanted to know what came next. But most of the book had me lost in space. It was hard to stay focused

Like your mysteries cozy and set during the Golden Age of Crime? This is the first audiobook in the Posie Parker mysteries, although this novel can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story in its own right. Set in London in 1921, Murder Offstage is full of intrigue and red herrings. When Posie Parker’s childhood friend is robbed of a priceless jewel and becomes a suspect in a cold-blooded murder case, budding detective Posie vows she will clear his name.

Meh
Revisado: 04-04-20
It’s not “bad” exactly. It’s just not good. I think I missed most of the story because it just didn’t hold my attention. I feel the same about the narration. It wasn’t terrible. But it didn’t do anything to help keep my attention either.

It all started with a mysterious blue note sewn into a wedding dress. Something blue. I’d gone to sell my own unworn bridal gown at a vintage clothing store. That’s when I found another bride’s “something old". Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true.

In this latest captivating novel, New York Times best-selling author Fiona Davis takes listeners into the glamorous lost art school within Grand Central Terminal, where two very different women, 50 years apart, strive to make their mark on a world set against them. For most New Yorkers, Grand Central Terminal is a crown jewel, a masterpiece of design. But for Clara Darden and Virginia Clay, it represents something quite different. For Clara, the terminal is the stepping stone to her future. It is 1928, and Clara is teaching at the lauded Grand Central School of Art.

I literally just saw how long was left in the book and said, out loud, “OH my God!” I just can not finish this. It should have ended hours ago.
