Another dumbed-down YA novel...

Not for me but still not good.
Revisado: 05-19-20
Go listen to Ready Player One, the Hunger Games, or Ender's Game. All of these novels have similar themes or settings and they're all much better books.

Historia
Concerned that technology is about to chase mythological creatures out into the open (how long can Sasquatch stay hidden from Google maps?), the League for Interspecies Cooperation is sending Jillian to Louisiana on a fact-finding mission. While the League hopes to hold on to secrecy for a little bit longer, they're preparing for the worst in terms of human reactions. They need a plan, so they look to Mystic Bayou, a tiny town hidden in the swamp where humans and supernatural residents have been living in harmony for generations.

another great Molly Harper story!
Revisado: 02-05-18
Molly continues to give good paranormal romance in this funny take on another southern town where things go bump in the night. And of course Amanda Ronconi is excellent as usual.

Historia
Childhood friends Patricia Delfine and Laurence Armstead didn't expect to see each other again after parting ways under mysterious circumstances during high school. After all, the development of magical powers and the invention of a two-second time machine could hardly fail to alarm one's peers and families. But now they're both adults, living in the hipster mecca San Francisco, and the planet is falling apart around them.

Too twee for me.
Revisado: 03-13-17
Too twee for me. While there is some good writing in here Anders spends so much of the time trying to be cute and whimsical that it distracts from the story she's trying to tell. The whole thing has the feel of an lengthy io9 article which she wrote for. Not my bag, but if you like cute this may be for you.

More engaging than the first book in the series.
Revisado: 08-01-15
I struggled to get into the first book in the series. Sanderson's world is a little opaque intially and characters spent too much time whinging about their internal woes. Words of Radiance pays off the time spent on the first book and the whole world he creates solidifies into a discernable whole. if you struggled with the first book listen to this one as the pay off for time spent.

A New York Times best-selling author of both fiction and nonfiction, Anne Lamott was also the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship. As much a guide to writing as an exploration of the emotional challenges of being a writer, Bird by Bird offers a candid and often humorous look at how to tackle these varied obstacles.

By far the best book on writing I've ever read.
Revisado: 06-25-15
Not only is this the best book on writing I've ever read it's in my top 10 favorite books of all time. Anne Lamott doesn't just give excellent advice on writing but captures the emotional roller-coaster that is the writing life. I often listen to this book rewind the beginning and start it all over again.

Another great Elrod book.
Revisado: 06-04-15
This book is another great book in the series of Jack Fleming. This book an the one before it are much less episodic than the others in the series. This one is a little darker but the end is really exciting and satisfying on a series level.

Historia
Jack Fleming was an investigative journalist in Prohibition-era Chicago until he got shot by an unknown assassin, bitten by his vampire girlfriend, and then became one of the undead. Now, this nice-guy nosferatu has a bunch of crazy vampire hunters on his trail, armed with crosses, silver bullets, and sharp wooden stakes. He doesn't know how they found out about him or why they are "out for his blood," but it's not a problem for this street-wise gumshoe, until someone starts shooting.

Love Elrod's work. The narrator gets better as they go on. Great if you like vampires and noir or anything with good 1930s feel.

Historia
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plainold "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

Funny Space Adventure with Good Science
Revisado: 07-14-14
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If you love science and space travel and want a good book with a funny narrator and good physics this is the one for you. Best book i've heard this year, with a great narrator who gets it!
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Martian?
I don't want to ruin any plot but though the character is in danger he still makes you laugh.
Which character – as performed by R. C. Bray – was your favorite?
He does a great job with all the characters, even the female ones which is often a challenge for male readers.
Any additional comments?
Get this book!

Historia
Ensign Andrew Dahl has just been assigned to the Universal Union Capital Ship Intrepid, flagship of the Universal Union since the year 2456. Life couldn’t be better…until Andrew begins to pick up on the facts that (1) every Away Mission involves some kind of lethal confrontation with alien forces; (2) the ship’s captain, its chief science officer, and the handsome Lieutenant Kerensky always survive these confrontations; and (3) at least one low-ranked crew member is, sadly, always killed.

Wil Wheaton pumps up fanfic drivel.
Revisado: 07-15-12
Where does Redshirts rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Towards the bottom unfortunately. This book is the worst combination of Douglas Adams and a Next Gen parody. This was my second Scalzi book and if possible was even worse than the other one I read. Scalzi is as insufferably full of himself, as usual, and the book is drowning in meta ideas that he thinks are more clever than they actually are. Wil Wheaton does a heroic job to save the tired genre parody retread. I guess Wil Wheaton was the obvious choice to read this book being a former TNG cast member but I wish he would vet his projects better.
Would you be willing to try another one of Wil Wheaton’s performances?
Absolutely! Wil Wheaton did a great job. I think his performance was better than the book deserved. While I think this is a superior performance to the other book Wil Wheaton narrated I'm more likely to go back and listen to Ready Player One.
