Great story! Can’t wait for the next in the series!

Revisado: 06-05-23

The different narrator threw me off a bit at first but she did a great job. I hope to hear more from this author!

Good! Not my most favorite but well worth the listen

Revisado: 02-22-23

Davina Porters narration, as always is flawless and fantastic. This story was a bit less eventful than some others and sort of brushed over some events that I would have liked to have found out what happened but overall this was a good book!

Good enough but slightly unsatisfying

Revisado: 11-23-21

Narrator was great, the first two books in the series were very good… this one was just ok. Some of the storyline felt a little too over-the-top fake. In general I enjoy books by this author so I will be back for more soon.

Narrator (Dennis Quaid) is awful!!

Revisado: 08-20-19

The writing was ok at best... the female narrator was good. But Dennis Quaid lacks the range, tone, inflection and whatever else it takes to be a good narrator.

The ending is a total disappointment!

Revisado: 06-20-18

This is so far my least favorite John Grisham book and I have listened to or read most of them. everything is fine until you get to the end where it just stops. there is no resolution to the mystery. you never find out which partner is the "spy" nor does the story ever wrap up what happens with the FBI investigation, the "Benny" character or the "Associate" who declines to enter the witness protection program. The ending of this book only makes sense if it is the first in a series.... which it is not

Painfully slow and quite dissapointing

Revisado: 02-02-18

This book was drawn out far, far too long and it never really seemed like it went anywhere. It followed the life of Theo from his tween-age years into early adulthood and a few brief interesting moments but much of seemed so pointless and added nothing to the story... This is the best analogy I can think of to describer this book... The writing felt a little bit like a story you are required to write for a class, and the teacher says this story must be a certain number of pages - I feel like the writer wrote a much shorter book and then when it was finished she realized she was sort on pages so rather than extend the story itself she just went back and added a bunch of unimportant/uninteresting bits as page filler. I did finish the book thinking there would be some great plot twist that would make the book worthwhile to listen to but instead I feel it was really anti-climactic

5 stars if not for the terrible male narrator

Revisado: 11-09-17

Very good listen - if you can force yourself to get past the male narrators awful accent. It's distracting and I hope the guy who reads the next book in this series is much better.

more a bunch of short stories than anything

Revisado: 09-07-17

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No... Maybe this book would be enjoyed by an adolescent but it was too simple and not my cup of tea.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The part about making cheese was the one and only part that held my interest. Mostly because I've never really thought about the actual production of the cheese and what goes into it.

Was Little House in the Big Woods worth the listening time?

I don't think so.

Good listen-Historically significant & interesting

Revisado: 09-07-17

What made the experience of listening to Hidden Figures the most enjoyable?

The fact that it was a true story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I can't decide but I do know that I would have liked to know more about a few of the individual "computers". Their stories are so different from most history, I'm glad someone told this story to bring a bit of recognition and acknowledgement to the tremendous contributions these ladies made for their country.

Have you listened to any of Robin Miles’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not. But this one was very good.

So happy I found a great series!

Revisado: 09-07-17

If you could sum up Private in three words, what would they be?

Entertaining
Suspenseful
Interesting

Any additional comments?

I only wish it could have been longer - while I like books in a series I have trouble justifying the spending of one of my credits on anything under 14 hours or so. Since there are a dozen or so more books in the series I'd love to see them lumped together in 2-3 book series for 1 credit.
