Historia
For a long time, no one pulling the strings in the comedy world thought that a woman over fifty from rural Tennessee could make it in the industry. But Leanne Morgan has defied the odds, reaching millions with her musings on hormones, low-rise britches, Weight Watchers, and her opposites-attract relationship with her husband, Chuck. In her charming southern accent, Morgan brings listeners inside her quest to find her voice after spending many years trying to figure out what that meant.

What a delightful, funny, sometimes sad but always hopeful story. The way Leanne writes about her family is honest and heartfelt. She is one of those rare people who makes me want to be a better person. She’s authentic, beautiful and Funny as “H”!

Heartbreakingly Beautiful and Relatable
Revisado: 09-14-24
Being the same age as Mary, I delighted in the many pop culture references of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, etc. and I’m so glad she included them otherwise, I’m sure I would I have cried the entire time. As with Mary’s other two books, this book is also beautifully written. Unlike the other two, this one is deeply personal, I related so much with the trauma she endured. The circumstances were different from mine however; the hurt, the self loathing, the denial and the many years of not getting to the route of all of it were exactly the same. From the moment I saw and heard Mary on MSNBC, I was so grateful to her, that she had the courage to speak publicly and answered many of the questions I had about her uncle, the main question in the early days of his presidency being, “why is he the way he is?”

I could listen to Tiffany talk, tell her stories and tell her jokes all day, everyday! She’s entertaining and incredibly honest. She has the ability to make you feel like she’s speaking directly and only to you, like a friend. I can’t wait to read/listen to her next book!!!

The Life Story of Hawk Koch was incredibly interesting and written with humility, humor
and honesty. And Mr. Koch has A GREAT Voice (I fell a little bit in love with his voice actually ❤️
I really loved how Hawk did not edit out his emotions, ie; tears of joy when he talks about the birth of each one of his 3 kids, other proud moments and tears of loss and sorrow as well. Don’t get me wrong, its not like he sobs or anything but its clear that he is choked up or teary eyed.
Oh yeah and then of course theres a TON of inside celebrity scoop, inside industry scoop.

Historia
I’ve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries.

On my 4th…5th Listen! A Book I Will Listen to Many, Many Times
Revisado: 03-28-22
What a life lived so far! I don’t know any other male human being that is both masculine, in All the Right Ways and So willing and open to to allow himself to be vulnerable in order to better know himself! In fact, I don’t know many humans of any gender, that have that kind of fearlessness and/or self awareness to even think it was necessary. Although, I will say Mr. McConaughey had some extra magic workin’ while he slept (No spoilers). I will say, I need to call a meeting with my sleep/dream angels and get me some-a-dat magic “Greenlight” .
I Love Mathew’s voice, his rhythm, the pleasant, light, southern drawl and the occasional, barely audible, whistle, when his tongue encounters an S…dee-licious!!!
I really loved the way he structured the book. The Shout Outs of; “Note to self”, “Bumper sticker”, “Prescription” and of course my personal favorite, the perfectly placed, much softer, “Greenlight”.
Well Done! And Thank You! My one critique, I wish it was longer or rather I wish I hadnt reached the end yet…thats on me! So Imma start it all over, right now “Greenlight” ❤️

Historia
In this searing memoir, Congressman Jamie Raskin tells the story of the forty-five days at the start of 2021 that permanently changed his life—and his family’s—as he confronted the painful loss of his son to suicide, lived through the violent insurrection in our nation’s Capitol, and led the impeachment effort to hold President Trump accountable for inciting the political violence.

Beautiful, heart wrenching and So Incredibly Powerful!!!
Revisado: 02-03-22
I loved this book so much! I’ve never cried more listening or reading a book Ever! Learning about Tommy Raskin through his father’s eyes, felt like a gift, a roadmap on how to live in this world…with Love. Then, with meticulous detail, the author takes us through the timeline, the emotional grief and pain, (sprinkling in some humor…thank you Mr. Raskin) of what he experienced.
The author (and narrator) masterfully weaves the story of tragically loosing his son and the story of how our election was almost overturned by Trumps violent mob when they stormed our Nations Capital on January 6th, 2021. The thing is for Representative Jamie Raskin, its really one story or rather one period of time where these two horrific, life altering events take place less than a week apart!
I love how you speak Mr. Raskin! The way you annunciate every-single-word…it’s riveting! I hope to meet you someday so I can thank you in person for this extraordinary book! And maybe you could indulge me and tell me the story of how you found your glasses…so beautiful and magical just like Tommy!

Historia
What story begins in a bedroom in suburban New Jersey in the early '60s, unfolds on some of the country's largest stages, and then ranges across the globe, demonstrating over and over again how rock and roll has the power to change the world for the better? This story. The first true heartbeat of Unrequited Infatuations is the moment when Stevie Van Zandt trades in his devotion to the Baptist religion for an obsession with rock and roll.

Historia
Gianni Russo was a handsome 25-year-old mobster with no acting experience when he walked onto the set of The Godfather and entered Hollywood history. He played Carlo Rizzi, and he didn't have to act - he knew the mob inside and out: from his childhood in Little Italy, where Mafia legend Frank Costello took him under his wing, to having to go on the lam after shooting and killing a member of the Colombian drug cartel in his Vegas club. Along the way, Russo befriended Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando. Russo had passionate affairs with Marilyn Monroe and Liza Minelli....
