Two young women from totally different backgrounds are thrown together during World War II: one a working-class girl from Manchester, the other a Scottish aristocrat, one a pilot, the other a wireless operator. Yet whenever their paths cross, they complement each other perfectly and before long become devoted friends. But then a vital mission goes wrong....

Historia
The Carls just appeared. Coming home from work at three a.m., 23-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship - like a 10-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor - April and her friend Andy make a video with it, which Andy uploads Online. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world - everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires - and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense media spotlight.

I’m not a fan of writing unfavorable reviews but i feel compelled. This book was just NOT for me. I thought it would be fun and definitely could’ve been if the agendas could be set aside. The bisexual focus was totally unnecessary and did not add to the story at all. If fact, it was a distraction. Also I’m certainly a proponent of getting along but the kumbaya ending to save the world was a bit overdone as well. I will say the narrator was great. She’s what kept me listening. Had i been reading i would’ve stopped the book before halfway.
I understand efforts to unite people in our current political polarization so after I finished the book I went to see if the existing climate was the catalyst for the books agenda. Nope, originally written in 2018 which shocked me more.
Read at your own discretion.

Not what i hoped it would be….
Revisado: 07-29-23
I like historical fiction(or nonfiction) but this story seemed more to take a few historical facts & wrap a lot of sex around it. I completely understand the priority in centuries past with bearing legitimate male heirs but really disappointed at how this story developed. Just wish there were more facts for this woman’s story…

Historia
Mary is the queen of Scotland and the jewel of the French court. Except when she’s a mouse. Yes, Mary is an Eðian (shape-shifter) in a kingdom where Verities rule. It’s a secret that could cost her a head - or a tail. Luckily, Mary has a confidant in her betrothed, Francis. But things at the gilded court take a treacherous turn after the king meets a suspicious end. Thrust onto the throne, Mary and Francis face a viper’s nest of conspiracies, traps, and treason. And if Mary’s secret is revealed, heads are bound to roll.

Was expecting this to be a bit more historical. My mistake. Definitely could’ve done without lesbian relationship in what i believe was supposed to be a fun and fanciful story

Historia
I've got everything it takes to make it in Tinseltown: confidence, charisma, and a killer chin. Now all I need is a chance. But Los Angeles is full of hot young hunks, and talent might not be enough to separate me from the cookie-cutter crowd. So I devise a wild scheme to get noticed. Pretend I’m someone I'm not—good-bye Will O’Connell of Cincinnati and hello Liam O’Connell of Dublin. "Liam" and his talent with accents is enough to get my foot in the door, but I never anticipated meeting the woman who has me more worried about keeping my foot out of my mouth.

Personally think this story would’ve been better with more tamed sex scenes. Male character came across as a nice family guy so some scenes were just too strong OPINION

Historia
An extraordinary debut novel of love that survives the fires of hell and transcends the boundaries of time. The narrator of The Gargoyle is a very contemporary cynic, physically beautiful and sexually adept, who dwells in the moral vacuum that is modern life. As the book opens, he is driving along a dark road when he is distracted by what seems to be a flight of arrows.

I gave it over 5 hours and tried to stick with it. This just seemed to be a medical class coupled with depressive mental state. I really tried to get to the potential feel good relationship(s) and when i realized it was still not on the horizon i gave up. Sorry if i missed the good parts. Next time please start it earlier.

Historia
Eleanor Briggs just can't help herself. The sight of the man in the high-rise across the street is driving her wild. She longs to feel his touch up close and personal. To win him over, she'll need to shake off her wallflower sensibilities and become the seductress she never imagined she could be. The only trouble will be finding the perfect way to meet him. Sex is easy for millionaire entrepreneur Trey Riordan. Finding something of substance, however, seems impossible. That is, until a simple night of reading at a local coffee shop becomes something far steamier.

Historia
At the height of WWII, five idealistic young Americans receive a mysterious letter from the OSS, asking them if they are willing to fight for their country. The men and women from very different backgrounds - a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer - all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of his or her own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly.

One of the best

Started this book on a leisurely vacation because it was lengthy. To my surprise i would wake in the morning to be thinking of all theses characters. The narrators were exceptional in distinguishing between the cast. No spoilers so I’ll leave it with a must read. You will NOT be disappointed. I will be looking to enjoy another book by this author.

Just not worth the time. Was expecting a cute quick story. Not enough time for any character development so dined your time changing sheets instead.

Shifting fog
Revisado: 12-01-21
Narration was incredibly done. Very tough to switch timelines in mid chapter but she was successful and handled many different characters efficiently. I was able to decipher who was who without having to go back and re-listen to parts.
Entire story was very pleasant to listen to while working!
