Historia
France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever—and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world. But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.

Captivating story and great narration
Revisado: 06-12-24
I was worried it wouldn’t live up to the hype. It did. Gorgeous writing and the narration was delightful. Captivating in all the ways you want from good storytelling.

Historia
Aria’s in the hands of her enemies, and things are going from bad to worse. Those who she thought were allies have become enemies, and enemies have become allies. On top of that, Knox’s history is unraveling, and it might just be Aria’s undoing. Will they overcome what was done to the Nine Realms? Or will the truth destroy them both? Aria’s plans are all coming apart, and with everything on the line, how far will Aria go to protect those she loves from Knox’s anger?

Knox’s voice actor - laughed so hard I snorted
Revisado: 05-30-23
Let’s address the review title. His first line in the book, “Aria.” In this overly deep growl-esque thing. It was funny. I laughed and laughed some more. I almost stopped listening multiple times because of the way the male character is narrated. It didn’t improve for most of the book.
Noticeable inconsistency in the narrators with accent and voice control of characters. You can 100% tell when they had to re-record or started the recording again. Which can be jarring.
The plot line is getting dragged out for the benefit of a few ok sex scenes. It’s like whiplash with the characters and there’s no actual development of them at this point either. It’s just a vendetta for Knox. The book has at multiple points said only his true mate can do certain things yet he insists lilianna was his mate despite never doing any of the appropriate things. Aria is 26 but is being held accountable for centuries ago grievances while doing every possible thing his true mate could do. He even questioned if lilianna was his mate but love and grief blind him. . It’s becoming a bit droll.
It feels like plot holes are being found along the way and instead of rewriting and revising sections or adding a few details to fix plots it was easier to just make up something that doesn’t make sense to the reader to fix it. Makes for no continuity to the story. Or these absolutely astounding saves that “develop” but don’t. I’ve had several moments where I had to go back and listen to something because it contradicted previous things and then way down the road it’s actually this master plan to fix the holes. Or make it seem like both of these characters are the most intuitive and brilliant individuals on the planet. It’s getting old because it’s a lot of fluff at times to add sex without substance.

Historia
Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Historia
Winter is coming. Such is the stern motto of House Stark, the northernmost of the fiefdoms that owe allegiance to King Robert Baratheon in far-off King's Landing. There Eddard Stark of Winterfell rules in Robert's name. Far to the north, behind the towering Wall, lie savage Wildings and worse - unnatural things relegated to myth during the centuries-long summer, but proving all too real and all too deadly in the turning of the season. Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....

Too good to pass up

By far, the best performance reader I've ever had the delight to listen to. Truly a fantastic story can't wait to start the next book!

Whiny and jumps
Revisado: 02-19-16
The narration sounded whiny, if I had listened to the preview, I wouldn't have bought it. Maybe it's because the narration was not to my liking but the storyline was jumpy.

How could the performance have been better?
Horribly long pauses. It made it feel as if with every sentence she was starting a new chapter. It really threw me off from the flow of how the story is supposed to progress.
