Beautiful narration

Revisado: 04-03-25

A really well designed sleep story. I really enjoyed the nature sounds overlaid with the narration. The story is both fascinating and relaxing. Such an enjoyable listen!

Very Helpful Overview

For anyone who is new to money management or for experienced individuals who may want a refresher. The author explains everything succinctly and clearly and has good suggestions. A great listen!

Cute, but forgettable

Revisado: 04-04-24

Not quite sure why this is a best seller. I had to listen to it on 1.5 speed because otherwise my mind would drift. Lightly interesting subject but the characters all seem one dimensional, some of the main characters choices leave loose ends, and the big reveal at the end wasn’t much of a shocker. Still, it was entertaining and at least now I know what everyone else is talking about. I’d recommend it for a quick summer beach read, but that’s about it

A reassuring book asking you to consider your stuff

Revisado: 02-17-24

The author has strong convictions about minimalism and writes from his direct experience in becoming a minimalist. Some of the ideas work for me, but some don’t at all. However I think the true value of the book is it inspires you to look at your relationship with your things and consider the potential to experience positive effects of owning less things. A worthwhile read for anyone looking to reduce clutter.

I read this book as a kid and it was fun to revisit it. A silly and cute story with a Christmas moral. Fun for the whole family—play it on your next road trip to visit grandma for the holidays:)

Interesting but not the info I wanted

Revisado: 11-17-23

I would have preferred to hear more about dogs and less about dog-related experiments. It did answer some of my curiosities about dogs, but most of the course concerned the ins and outs of the experiments that provided the information (often inconclusive) rather than delving into the relevancy of the facts themselves.

A classic story with a positive message

Revisado: 06-14-23

A classic story with an uplifting message about the power of friendship, nature and the power of positive thinking. I read this as a child but it was fun to revisit. Great narration as well that suited the characters.

Brings Neanderthals to life

Revisado: 03-08-22

I did not know much of anything about Neanderthals before listening to this book. The descriptive narration combined with a myriad of facts is very informative and at the same time brings the experience of Neanderthals to life in a way that I have not seen in such a highly researched text before. I would recommend this book to both scholars and the casual listener. I appreciated that it was read by the author; I was impressed with her depth of knowledge on the subject and her ability to convey her knowledge in a way that is both accessible and fascinating to listeners.

Mispronunciations are distracting

Revisado: 11-19-21

If you’re going to write a book based on actual places, places that you obviously aren’t native to, the least you can do is know how to pronounce them correctly.

Im from Napa Valley and it’s St. He-LEE-nuh. Not St. HELL-in-ah.

Anyone who has spent any time in the Bay Area knows that.

I hate to nitpick a point, but it’s so distracting, and takes me out of the story every time she says it.

If only the narration was a brilliant as the story

Revisado: 10-24-20

The story is engaging and well written—full of twists and turns keeping you guessing.

The narration sounds for the most part, stilted and stuff. Plus, the attempts at an English accent are sadly autrocious. Finally, all of the characters, men and women alike, are read is such a similar tone that it is a surprise who is speaking at times. For me, the narration detracted from the story.
