love this author, but did not enjoy this narrator at all

Revisado: 06-21-24

I like Scarlett's novels very much. I would not have hung in there and listened to this narrator had that not been true.
From choppy reading, to interpreting things that characters are saying it doing in a much different way than I did, to mispronouncing words, which became so distracting that I had to go back and re-listen to a chapter.

Amazing!

Revisado: 05-10-22

This book made me cry! The Universe placed this book in front of me when I really needed to be reminded of what a powerful manifested I am.
It has encouraged me and inspired me to get back on track and shift my thinking again. I'm so grateful.

What the...

Revisado: 09-15-21

I feel like I made it to a new level of "woke" after reading this book. It is absolutely disgusting and shocking what we continued and continue to do to oppress people of color.
I love that the author offered solutions for how to right this HUGE and deliberate wrong. The solutions or "remedies" as he calls them, are big and sweeping and unfortunately I don't think I'll see that in my lifetime.
I am glad I have a much better understanding of the ways we used and abused or simply ignored laws to continually and purposefully enforce segregation and poverty among black people.

Tremendous Story-telling, terrific performances.

Revisado: 09-14-20

The way the writer tells the story is so interesting. Not the story itself, but the way it's told conjured up the feeling of "handwoven" in a sense. The sense of a "country craft fair", with homemade goods, and handmade products to buy and sell. I have great admiration for the performers. What a challenging piece! They were incredibly dynamic during monologues that were quite lengthy. The stamina to carry the performance, each by themselves, to keep up the energy; to show such a broad range of nuanced emotion with an audio-only medium, whew, how Incredible!

I really just could not get into this audiobook. It felt very unpolished, like the equivalent of a B-rated film.

Quality Book For Nerding Out!

Revisado: 08-27-19

This book is fantastic. It does go into a lot of biology and scientific explanations that can get messy and confusing at times. The author does a good job of explaining most things in layman's terms, which was helpful.

Enlightening

The ending felt chopoed iff, but understandably so. This is an ongoing story. I hope Bob Woodward writes, or is involved with writing, a continuation of this inside view of this presidency.

I appreciate women's struggles much better now...

Revisado: 08-20-18

I enjoyed this book so much! I, one day, sat up with this super-strong desire to know about the history of the rights and opportunities of women in recent history.

Someone on my FB responded to my plea for personal stories about women's experiences and recommended this book to me. I love so many of the anecdotes. Women are strong , Intelligent and inspiring.

Also, I have so much more gratitude toward so very many things...choice , opportunities that I have. I may be too young to remember much of this "girl-fight", but this book thoroughly got me caught up and ready to jump in and continue the cause!

Scarpetta novels - always Marvelous!

I have been a fan of Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta novels since 1999. They never disappoint!

Wow!

Revisado: 10-16-16

This was a very intense story. I especially enjoyed the way it was broken up and read by two different voices. Listening to this book could have proven to be very confusing without the duo of readers. A well-written story, and dynamic reading performance.
