Historia
When Sam meets fellow Terry Fox University student Lauren in an off-campus basement bar, sparks fly, but when he tries her number the next day, he learns she's given him the wrong digits. Instead of feeling slighted, he has faith it's an honest mistake and worries she'll think he's that guy if he doesn't call. Without her last name or residence floor, he tries the university's email system and mass-emails all 246 women named Lauren in hopes of finding the right one. The women bond in same-name solidarity, forming a Facebook group called “Lauren from Last Night.”

Heartfelt and a wild ride
Revisado: 07-28-23
What can keep two souls apart? The brash roommate? The family drama? The spiraling social media frenzy surrounding their meet cute? Read and find out! packed with heart, twists, and more drama than I was expecting. Excellent side-by-side narration, too.

Historia
In the absolutely packed Act II, the dark fantasy resumes and the Sandman expands into the French Revolution, ancient Rome, 19th-century San Francisco, eighth-century Baghdad, and beyond. New and familiar characters abound, voiced by a bright mix of performers, including Kat Dennings, Regé-Jean Page, Emma Corrin, Michael Sheen, Kristen Schaal, Brian Cox, John Lithgow, Jeffrey Wright, and so many more, including fan-favorite narrators Simon Vance and Ray Porter.

Historia
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

Deeply engrossing. Susanna Clarke's story is beautiful and slightly unsettling and told fantastically by Chiwetel Ejiofor.

Historia
The Great War is at a stalemate, and the only thing stopping Germany from striking America is the threat of the United States using their own Annihilation Gas against them. But America's supply is quickly decaying and the Central Powers know it. A plant is under construction in the remote highlands of Mexico so that America can make their own supply. President Teddy Roosevelt assigns crack agent Luz O'Malley and her technical genius Ciara Whelan to watch over the plant operating under cover identities.

A little something to help keep us all sane during the pandemic. I have followed these characters since the start, and this was a terrific end to this chapter of the story! well told, and superbly narrated by McLaren.

Historia
In sports, everybody loves redemption stories, the underdog who no one believes in but through sheer hard work wins it all. But no one tells the stories of the players who work hard and don’t make it. In pro football, 53 guys get on the roster. Ten make it to the practice squad. And then there’s the 64th Man - that’s Billy Logan (Cena), who seems to always be one spot from glory.

For as many superlatives as were used in the marketing, I expected more. This could have been 30 percent shorter and still told the same story.

Historia
Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues - a bee, a key, and a sword.

The best book of the season!
Revisado: 11-15-19
How does one follow up a debut as engrossing and un-put-downable as Erin Morgenstern's 'The Night Circus'?
If you're Erin Morgenstern, one does it by crafting a winding mystery and peppering it with myths and fables, and by breathing so much life into her characters, that certain events will bring the reader to tears.
'The Starless Sea' is so much more than a story; mere words bound in paper. It is the thought of a world made true.
I endorse this novel with great enthusiasm.

Historia
At the end of the Second World War, Cyril Conroy combines luck and a single canny investment to begin an enormous real estate empire, propelling his family from poverty to enormous wealth. His first order of business is to buy the Dutch House, a lavish estate in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia. Meant as a surprise for his wife, the house sets in motion the undoing of everyone he loves. The story is told by Cyril’s son Danny, as he and his older sister, the brilliantly acerbic and self-assured Maeve, are exiled from the house where they grew up by their stepmother.

I did not expect to be emotionally invested after one chapter.
I did not expect to experience physical distress from actions and events which impacted imaginary people.
I loved every word.

Historia
Every spring, Little Leaguers across the country mimic his stance and squabble over the right to wear his number, 2, the next number to be retired by the world’s most famous ball team. Derek Jeter is their hero. He walks in the footsteps of Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, and Mantle, and someday his shadow will loom just as large. Yet he has never been the best player in baseball. In fact, he hasn’t always been the best player on his team. But his intangible grace and Jordanesque ability to play big in the biggest of postseason moments make him the face of the modern Yankee dynasty, and of America’s game.

Well told, but now incomplete -Narration lacking
Revisado: 12-26-18
This well informed biography is now incomplete., but covers the story of the Yankees' greatest shortstop quite well right up until it stops.
While told with great love and understanding of the game, the narration is sadly lacking and stilted. The last two hours of the book were particularly excruciating, as the narrator stumbled over multiple player names and manager names, which was remarkably distracting.

Haunting
Revisado: 12-04-18
I first read Bag of Bones as a fresh-faced 20 year old, and at the time, it was a good read and a scary story. Coming back to it nearly two decades later, it's it's still a good read and a scary story but for new reasons. As a married man with a child, this book hits hard in places I didn't have as a young man. And it just keeps on hitting.
While Steve is not a trained actor or voice performer, he is a natural storyteller and the perfect choice for this narration. His love of the story and characters comes out, and his authentic Yankee accent lends itself perfectly to the telling.
This is a terrific tale, and one I'll listen to again.
