Predictable and naïve
Revisado: 12-05-24
This book was not up to the standard I’ve come to expect Dorothea Benton. The characters were shallow, and the storyline was predictable.

Historia
When you listen to this audiobook, you will make many assumptions. You will assume you are listening to a story about a jealous ex-wife. You will assume she is obsessed with her replacement - a beautiful, younger woman who is about to marry the man they both love. You will assume you know the anatomy of this tangled love triangle. Assume nothing. Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.

Meh
Revisado: 03-03-19
To me, the book really did not become gripping until near the end...maybe last 4-5 chapters. The narrator was too monotone for my taste and seemed to lacked enthusiasm. I found the plot to be predictable at times.

Historia
For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.

Thought provoking
Revisado: 01-20-18
A new free way to look at life. The author points out that the things we worry about and stress over are not the real things we should be concerned about. Take chances, don’t be afraid of failing, choose how you respond to situations. This is not a book of you should or shouldn’t....it is a book of why haven’t you.
Wonderful content...a bit heavy with the “F” bomb if you were wondering by the title, superb narration and overall worth the read.

Historia
Falling Free chronicles the Martin family's pilgrimage from the faulty, me-centric wisdom of this world to the topsy-turvy life of God's more being found in the less, challenging listeners to rethink their own assumptions about faith and the good life. Anyone who yearns for something beyond status quo, middle-class Christianity but hesitates out of insecurity or safety concerns will find encouragement, food for thought, and practical guidance in this sweetly subversive book.

I felt like Shannan was sharing my life experiences. Although. It the same life-altering experience, the missed opportunities are universal. No more excuses...I can do all things through Christ 👍🏼

The ending improved my overall opinion of this book. Too much day to day nag fest...I live it, didn't want to read it. Not up to Nicholas Sparks standards.

Incredible and gripping
Revisado: 05-10-16
One of the most incredible stories I have ever read. Brought to life my the narrator with such enthusiasm that I felt enveloped in the story as if I were living it myself. Humor as comic relief-well placed and appropriate. Going to see the movie...but I am sure it will pale in comparison!!

Disappointing
Revisado: 06-12-15
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Yes. I really enjoy Jodi's writing style.
What could Jodi Picoult have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Too many characters to keep up with and well into Chapter 10-11 before the subplots began to make sense.
Which scene was your favorite?
Allie's garage sale and the trial.
Could you see Mercy being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
No, not really.
Any additional comments?
As a Jodi Picoult fan...this, in my opinion, was not her best work. First of her books that I was not completely thrilled with. 😔
