Historia
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

Speaking His Truth….
Revisado: 12-01-23
This book is long overdue. I grew up watching the royals and remember getting married & having children at the same time as Princess Diana. I never paid much attention to “The Royals” until Princess Diana, but her ability to touch the lives of all of us regular folk made me be a bit more invested.
Honestly, after she passed I felt so much sorrow for her children that I quit listening to any news or reading anything because it was all just too much.
When Harry started making the news so much you couldn’t help but be pulled back in.
Being on the outside nobody knows what to believe, but I have to say that I found his story quite convincing and believable.
It’s really quite sad everything he’s been put through, but I feel like he’s a better man for it & his mum would be very proud.
This book is well written & he did a great job as the narrator. I hope he & Meghan have a long & happy life together. It’s much deserved!!

Historia
F. Scott Fitzgerald makes antebellum Baltimore his setting for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, a fantastical tale with some Poe-like overtones about a baby born at age 70 who then lives life in reverse, his hair turning "in the dozen years of his life from white to iron-gray, the network of wrinkles on his face becoming less pronounced". What ramifications that creates for Benjamin's relationship with his father first and then later with his wife and his own son makes for some fantastical situations.

I was surprised to see this was only 1 hr. The movie with Brad Pitt is 2 hrs & 47 min (Its currently on Showtime & I watched it) which is quite long for a movie these days.
I enjoyed listening, but you will be disappointed if you are expecting it to be like the movie. The movie adds a lot to this story.
*^*TO REVIEWERS*^*
Many people read reviews to help them make decisions on what they want to spend their money on. IMHO reviewers need to be more mindful of those of us reading your reviews. Please do not give away so much of the storyline. Books are ruined when reviewers give out more than just their opinions. There is no need to tell story details with your review. Let people hear/read for themselves instead of getting important details from your review.
Please & Thank You!!

Historia
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

This is not my normal genre, but I’m glad I ventured out & decided to try something new.
I found the story & the writing style to be really good. I immediately felt like I knew the characters.
The narrator was excellent!!
I’m looking forward to starting book 2 in the series.

All couples can get something from Vanessa & Xander. They are so very easy to listen to & very relatable. I’ve been in my current relationship for almost 25 years & my husband & I are both listening to this. Actually he is very proactive & found this for us. While we have a good relationship we have both learned a lot & this podcast has really helped us be more open with conversations and the conversations led to an improved relationship overall not just in the bedroom. We all know how important our sex lives are in relationships, but they can become just kinda blah as the years go by. The conversations these podcasts helped us have definitely helped the relationship as a whole. I would suggest listening to this even if you think things are going perfectly fine. I think everyone will walk away thinking more about if that is actually true and even if it is true & things are going great. Things can always be better. Give them a listen. You won’t regret it especially if you’re wanting your relationship to last forever & like the idea of getting back to the honeymoon phase. Good Luck!!

Great Story & Great Narrator
Revisado: 03-07-23
Moved quickly & kept my interest the whole time. I thought the way the MC was in a wheelchair, & living a full life in every way. Family, career, friend’s & romance. Yet still addressed many of the real issues that are part of someone’s life who has physical limitations, but not done
In a feel sorry for me type of way. Lots of laughter with how she describes how some treat her, but in a good way. Also a good way for those of us who may not have been exposed to those living with physical limitations to learn something.
Well written by the two authors & Regan Linton was great doing all the different characters voices. Not over the top voice changes & seemed to come very naturally. I could really visualize the 3 MC friendships & the family dynamic with a young stepmother stepping in is the same age as the MC. Some LOL moments. I will be looking for more books being narrated by Regan Linton.

Not for me!!!
Revisado: 03-06-23
I like Karla Souza as an actress so I thought I’d check this out. It was not for me, So Im just going to list facts instead of my opinion. We all know what we enjoy and what we don’t enjoy. So it’s up to you to decide. I don’t like leaving negative reviews & this will actually be my first time to do so, but I think these things are worth mentioning.
To be fair I only listened to 53 minutes.
1. Unless you are bilingual about half of this you will not understand.
2. The female MC sounds angry & loud all the time & uses a lot of curse words & Im no stranger to curse words. It was just loud & constant whining or yelling. Over the top acting IMO & as I said I loved her in the tv series How To Get Away With Murder.
3. Lots of talk about racism & assuming people were racist based on nationality to her being a woman.
4. Lots of talk about how people with money treat people who don’t have money or how they categorize you because you’re of a different race & assume your uneducated or unable to understand English, again more racism. The thing was it came across as the MC was the one who was racist because that all she seemed to think of everyone.
I don’t know but it was just to much for me. This is the first time I did not finish a book & I have had books that were over 45 hours & I finished them.
This may not be offensive to some. Which is why I just wanted to state facts about the story.
Good luck & I hope if you decide to give it a listen that you enjoy it.

Adam Cade is entitled, arrogant - and he doesn’t remember me. Adam is the prince of Lake Tahoe, born into one of the wealthiest families in the area, and he’s the one person I hoped to avoid. He doesn’t recognize me. He definitely doesn’t remember how he helped this town ruin my life. Now that we work together, I have no choice but to get close to the arrogant ass if I want to keep my job.

The Best in the Series
Revisado: 03-03-23
I enjoyed all 5 in the series, but don’t recommend reading #4 on its own. I started this one right after finishing #4 and feel like this book tied the series up nicely for the MC. I enjoyed the plot with this one with some more dramatic, criminal & action & slightly scary worried scenes, I felt this story had more depth & more going on than just the love story. Obviously I love romance novels or I would not have been listening to begin with, but it’s nice when there is more to the plot than just sexual tension. The way Jules Barnard tied everything up for Blue was rewarding & opens the door for the Cade brothers and that 4 book series that I have on pause right now & am enjoying this far. I enjoy this author. The narrators Zachary Webber & Susannah Jones both did a great job as well. All around good series. I have already recommended it to several friends by sharing the link on audible. I love how easy the feature is & that’s how you get the badge for social butterfly. I sent the link in text & my friend was able to get a sample right then & started the book & is now on #3 of the series.
BTW… none of the series cost a credit until 3/8/23.

Framed as a first-person narrative from the eponymous horse, this much-loved family classic follows Black Beauty's journey from a well-born colt to a painfully overworked cab horse. Brimming with vivid detail and relatable characters, each chapter of Black Beauty's long and varied life communicates an important message about kindness, sympathy and understanding.

Listened Over 20 Times
Revisado: 03-01-23
This is a terrific story & I totally enjoyed following the journey of Black Beauty. I felt like I was experiencing life in the 1800’s. This book was written in the 1840’s and is the only book Anna Sewell ever had published. What a great way to get perspective from an animal’s viewpoint.
I enjoyed Samuel West performance of Black Beauty so much, that I researched him on Audible & loaded many more of his books. Many of them were books no credit needed.
Personally I feel like this book is for all age’s & everyone will enjoy it especially if you already have a love for animals. The story was thought provoking on how to treat our fur babies. I have always loved on mine, and taken good care of them, but after hearing this story I must say I am even more mindful. This is a must read. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did. I received the badge with the gold ring for listening to the same book over 20 times. That’s how much I enjoyed it.

I'm stuck in the friend zone with the hottest guy I've ever known. Oh, and he's my best friend. Zach pushes me away the moment sparks fly, and sparks have been flying since the day we met. For some aggravating reason, he's intentionally keeping me at a distance. The way I see it, I have two options. I can leave town and make a fresh start, or I can show Zach how right we are for each other.

WARNING: Read 1-3 in Series first
Revisado: 02-27-23
This book might leave many feeling the characters are underdeveloped & feeling like the 2 MC do not know each other. Much less be best friends.
Many of the harsh negative reviews are because people have not listened to 1-3 in the series.
With that being said.
I felt like Zach & Nessa deserved a more in depth storyline. After listening to 1-3 in the series one knows they are eventually going to be a couple, but if you read this one on it’s own it will seem like the 2 MC do not know each other well & like everything is very rushed.
There were many areas in the story where I was left wanting more development & more answers.
MC Nessa is described as a small woman 5’ tall & Emily Bauer’s voice sounds like she would be small. IMO her voice goes along with Nessa’s size description. I enjoy Zachery Webber, but it was kinda difficult for me because he also did the MC of Tyler in series 3, which I finished just hours before I started on the 4th installment. It was difficult for me to get Tyler out of my head. Maybe give it a day or 2 if people’s voices help you imagine the look & makeup of a character.
In the end I was left wanting more for Zach & Nessa. More answers & some consequences for Alexis.
I’m on to #5 in the series.
