Historia
Know how to navigate, don’t worry about the destination, and stay alert. These are just a few of the strategies that contribute to both successful lion tracking and a life of fulfillment. When we join Boyd Varty and his two friends tracking lions, we are immersed in the South African bush, and, although we learn some of the skills required for actual tracking, the takeaways are the strategies that can be applied to our everyday lives.

So many clip-worthy quotes!
Revisado: 02-21-25
If you are at a place in your life of trying to figure out who you want to be, or what you want to do (what’s your passion?), then this is a great book of navigation!
I prefer educational / spiritual / self-enriching books in story form, and this book delivers an interesting and engaging insight into the life of a tracker.
I have listened to many great audible books, however this book had SO MANY “stop-me-in-my-tracks” moments that I finally HAD to figure out the clip / bookmark feature so I could back and reflect.
Favorite quote: I don’t know where I’m going, but I know exactly how to get there.
If you’re a fan of Martha Beck, you will like this book. She also happened to be a mentor of the author! :)

Historia
Turning 30 has its ups and downs. For Callie Grey, coming to grips with her age means facing the fact that her boyfriend-slash-boss is way overdue with a marriage proposal. And that she's way off track, because Mark has suddenly announced his engagement to the company's new Miss Perfect. If that isn't bad enough, her mom decides to throw her a Big Three-Oh birthday bash - in the family funeral home.

Sure, the ending is as predictable as a romcom, but just as fun and romantic as well! Great narration and fun story with different set up in the beautiful NE US.

Historia
It’s 2006. After a string of rejections from men who tell her they could never, ever, ever see her “that way,” awkward third-grade teacher Micaela Blei signs up for a mysterious course called “The Divine Feminine,” and feels like she might have found the key to the perfect life. Turns out if you’re an A student, you can get an A in anything–including men. Pretty soon she’s learning to "conjure" her desires with vision boards, flirtations, and even a daring jumbotron viewing party for her, ahem ... "divine center."

Change and growth - so relatable - and FUN
Revisado: 12-13-24
The upfront disclosure of the frequent use of the “P” word was perfect and made this such a joy to listen to! Micaela is a WONDERFUL story teller (a super power I wish I had!) and the way she describes her life experiences and how she changed is enviable. It’s so true that I believe the pendulum swings far in both directions before settling in the middle, and her sharing her “far swing” adventure from the past, and how that fit into her life now, is so relatable. Thank you for the laughs and reflection on my own life!

Twists Without Usual Darkness
Revisado: 12-10-24
I’ve enjoyed many of KL Slater’s books, well developed characters, engaging twists and turns, but generally a little dark requiring a fast forward here and there. This was another great story albeit a bit more convoluted but with less darkness, so it balanced for me, no fast forward required. Kept my attention the whole way!

Historia
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Good story, a little dark
Revisado: 05-18-24
Quite a twist! I enjoyed the story. It was just a little dark for my taste. Great narration, and an easy listen. Will definitely listen to more of his stories!

Historia
My darling little boy Albie adores playing at our new neighbours’ house. And after the terrible year we’ve had, I feel so lucky that we can start over in this perfect place, with new friends who treat Albie like the son they never had. He can’t stop talking about the tree house they’re building him, and the cookies they bake together. But as time passes, something starts to feel wrong. Why don’t they ever open the front door more than a crack? They told me they had no children so who does the small pink tricycle I saw in their hall belong to?

Intriguing Storyline with twist
Revisado: 04-27-24
KL Slaters stories always keep my attention, and this one is no exception. Surprisingly turns and it was nice to have a positive ending. A little dark for my taste, only reason for the 4 instead of 5 stars, but still a good story with well moving cadence. Great narrator as well!

Historia
My husband and I are fighting for our lives in hospital after a terrible car accident. But despite my pain, all I can think about is what our families will find behind our front door. The scarf that has been all over the news, belonging to a dead young woman with honey-coloured hair. I have to speak to the police before my husband can. I’m drifting in and out of consciousness, but when I hear my wife talking to the police, accusing me of the murder of an innocent woman, a cold fear grips me. I know I’ve got a temper.

Story took surprising turns and kept my interest the whole way. Quite a few time travels at the beginning, but added to the developing plot. Will be looking for another KL Slater book!

Collected for the first time anywhere, the nine tales in The Egg and Other Stories highlight Andy Weir's trademark wit and unexpected twists. For the few who have yet to experience The Martian, it's a perfect appetizer. For passionate Weir fans, it's a delicious dessert.

I liked all the stories but one that I just don’t understand (I’m sure it’s me). The Egg is a great story, love it and agree with it!

Subtly funny for a dark mystery series
Revisado: 01-24-24
Just love this Detective Dan series!! I am not usually a “dark” (murder and the descriptions) subject fan, but the narrator and the comedic touch by the author is brilliant! Well worth a listen if you’re generally a “lighter/happier” story type fan like I am. Had to grin at the several references to the character’s pelvic floor in the book, but we all get hooked on certain topics at times. Just give this a try, you won’t be disappointed!

Historia
When Nigel Baxter, a middle-aged married banker with an unremarkable past, is found dead in the bath of a plush hotel suite, his wrists slit, it looks as if he's taken his own life. At first. But when Detective Inspector Daniel Riley is assigned to the case, he soon realises all isn't as it first appears to be. When a postmortem shows Baxter was poisoned, Riley suspects foul play. And then there's the odd addition of a teddy bear left at the crime scene....

A bit gruesome but good entertainment
Revisado: 11-05-23
So glad I happened across this series! I’m not generally a crime story person, and I admit to FF thru the crime descriptions, but the detectives kept it light hearted and entertaining so I kept listening. Can’t wait to listen to another. Narrator is fantastic as well!
