Couldn’t stop listening
Revisado: 01-01-25
When I was growing up and learning about the Holocaust I was dumbfounded how people could be so evil and brutally kill people for their religious beliefs. Fast forward to today in our current political state and the tensions between individuals, it is shocking to see similarities. While a historical fiction book is not what I typically listen to I was help captivated by the story. I would encourage others to listen and get curious about the past so we do not repeat.

Historia
When a Category 5 hurricane is poised to hit their coastal Florida town, the Davies family takes refuge in their waterfront manse. Marlowe, Lee, and their teenage twins invite their close friends to wait out the storm in comfort and style. Uninvited are the three strangers who dock on the family’s shore right before the storm descends. Brothers Jason and Bo—and Bo’s girlfriend, Darcy—are a charming, helpful trio in need of a safe haven that the Davies are only too happy to provide. But as the storm outside grows more threatening, so does the tension in the house.

Too Many Characters!
Revisado: 03-21-24
Too many characters and story lines to sift through! Geez I tried making sense of this story by listening to it 3Xs giving up by chapter 16! Frustrating to invest so much time to only get more confused by this writer.

Historia
War veteran Peter Ash sought peace and quiet among the towering redwoods of Northern California, but the trip isn't quite the balm he'd hoped for. The dense forest and close fog cause his claustrophobia to buzz and spark, and then he stumbles upon a grizzly long thought to have vanished from this part of the country. In a fight of man against bear, Peter doesn't favor his odds, so he makes a strategic retreat up a nearby sapling. There he finds something strange: a climbing rope affixed to a distant branch above.

The youth are our hope
Revisado: 01-23-24
GenZ won’t tolerate the principles of the Republican party. I believe they will step up and vote for the future of the planet. We just have to figure out how to educate so they understand the danger of Republicans having any control.

Perhaps her party can hear
Revisado: 12-06-23
Liz Cheney will go down in history in her fight to evil. She has stood tall and speaks truth. I have been a Republican my entire life. The current party does not represent any of the Principles of how I was raised. If others in the Republican party would have had her character and courage we wouldn’t be in a fight to save our democracy. No surprise Kevin McCarthy announced he is retiring. Liz has told her story. Everyone should read her book. She learned in her journey to work with others to uncover the truth about January 6th and how Trump called the mob and incited the mob. Well produced with audio from the day embedded in her book.

Someone had the courage
Revisado: 09-30-23
No excuses for not studying history. Peopling my life have said history repeats itself. I would not have likely found this book if I had not listened to Cassidy Hutchinson’s book enough. Every one should read both books. Nixon/Trump both losers.

Amazing courage
Revisado: 09-29-23
When I think of how young this woman is and the absolute courage she had to speak the truth it gives me hope. I am a 67 year old woman that teaches leadership in different organizations and she is an example of what leader looks like. The Republican Party today is not my Republican Party anymore. Sick of the cowards each of them are.
Cassidy is young yet her book is a reflection of where she came from and I believe that part of her story was important. My greatest hope is that she continues to become the woman she is meant to become.
I will listen to this again. Thank you Cassidy for having the courage to speak up. Hold your head high knowing you can look yourself in the mirror each morning!!!! Enough is a great title
