The Most Awesome Book
Revisado: 05-24-15
This is a book everyone should listen to. It is realistic, and makes you think about situations in life. If I could give it a 10 star rating I would. Stina Nielsen is a reader that makes you feel that you are living the story.

Good Book - BUT!!!
Revisado: 02-05-14
I would have loved this series of books if not for the foul language. All the books were a surprise to the very end. Cut out the f word, and you would cut at least 15 minutes off the time for the 3 books.
I will not listen to any more books by Tami Hoag because I am sure if these 3 talked like this, the others will follow a similar pattern.
I am sorry for the down review, but this is the way I feel.

Historia
Midwife Patience Murphy has a gift: a talent for escorting mothers through the challenges of bringing children into the world. Working in the hardscrabble conditions of Appalachia during the Depression, Patience takes the jobs that no one else wants, helping those most in need - and least likely to pay. She knows a successful midwifery practice must be built on a foundation of openness and trust - but the secrets Patience is keeping are far too intimate and fragile for her to ever let anyone in.

Standout Book!!!
Revisado: 02-16-13
This is a book that I truly enjoyed listening to. I loved the story. Many times I was transported back as if I were in the room waiting for the birth.
I recommend this book as a "must listen".
Patricia Harman wrote a great story, and Anne Wittman made the book come alive with the way she read the book.
I am watching for more books by both of these women.

Historia
On Christmas Eve in 1985, a hunter found a young boy's body along an icy corn field in Nebraska. The residents of Chester, Nebraska, buried him as "Little Boy Blue", unclaimed and unidentified-- until a phone call from Ohio two years later led authorities to Eli Stutzman, the boy's father.Eli Stutzman, the son of an Amish bishop, was by all appearances a dedicated farmer and family man in the country's strictest religious sect.

Fact is fact.
Revisado: 02-10-13
I feel this was a true crime story. It is said to be true, and if you want to know the facts, then you must hear the acts. It told of the homosexual acts, but they were an important part of the facts. When you listen to a steamy romance book, you hear a lot more than this. I feel this was a great listen, and I would recommend it, if you like true crime.
If truth be told, none of this is anything that the average adult has not heard rumors about.
I was intrigued with the story, the way the facts were collected, and finally in finding Levi.
My rate for this book is 5 stars.

Wonderful Story
Revisado: 12-01-12
I love books by Robyn Carr. This is a stand alone story, and I laughed and I cried. The only problem with the book is the amount of off color words, and the swearing. I had to keep turning it down when my grandkids came into the room. Since I told you about the language, I recommend this book highly.

Historia
Five-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin is acclaimed as “one of the genre’s best historical fiction novelists” ( Library Journal). Set in Brooklyn, New York, during World War II, While We’re Far Apart is a brilliant blend of captivating characters, heart-tugging emotions, and vivid spiritual truths. While a motherless girl longs for her daddy and a young lady hopes for a second chance at love, this poignant tale explores the uncertainty that stalks the homefront as the “War to End All Wars” rages in Europe.

Doesn't seem like a Lynn Austin book.
Revisado: 09-07-12
I have listened to many Lynn Austin books, and I can't believe she wrote this book. To me it is boring from the very beginning. The story is shallow, and the characters are made to be very whiney people. This is not an Austin book that I would recommend. Sorry for the bad review, but this is the way I feel.

Historia
When Caro Lamont, former psychologist turned pet therapist, makes a house call to help Kevin Blackstone with his two misbehaving German shepherds, she expects frantic dogs; she expects a frantic dog owner; she even expects frantic neighbors. What she doesn't expect is that two hours later the police will find Kevin dead, his dogs impounded; and that as the last person to see Kevin alive (well, except for the killer) she is suddenly a person of interest, at least according to Homicide Detective Judd Malone.

Dumb!!!!
Revisado: 08-24-12
Even though this was a lower priced book, it sounded like it would be funny. The wanna be southern voice is terrible. The story is so dumb, it is a turnoff from the very beginning. I would not recommend this book.

Historia
Clare Cosi used to manage the historic Village Blend coffeehouse…until she opted for quieter pastures and a more suburban life. But after ten years and a little friendly cajoling from the owner (a fresh pot of Jamaican Blue Mountain was all it took), she's back to the grind. With a sprawling rent-free apartment directly above the Village Blend, her cat Java by her side, and plenty of coffeehouse redecorating ideas, Clare is thrilled to return to work. Until she discovers the assistant manager unconscious in the back of the store, coffee grounds strewn everywhere.

Fun Listening

This book was a fun and interesting listen, it also added some good tidbits about the history of coffee. All in all it was an easy listen fireside book. I will continue with the series.

A must listen to book.

Lynn Austin is a writer that comes along once in a lifetime. Each of her books are the best.
All I can say is, listen to this book, and the others she has written, and you will want Lynn to write another hundred books.
