Good Ole JRs Masterpiece

Revisado: 09-22-24

I've read all of Jim's books and enjoyed them all. But this one is special. Jim takes us behind the curtain or black hat as he'd say to discuss his famous calls and moments. I enjoyed the performance in the book and thought it was to the point and interesting. I enjoyed thus more than his other books as he has shown us his own mortality. I know one day the voice will be gone and our childhood will go with it. But through this talking book he will live forever. Love ya JR!

Dont Bother With This Book

Revisado: 12-03-23

Bought this after seeing the Author on various talk shows promoting the book. Was really enjoying the touching story. At some particular point of each chapter it brought me to tears. Relating to the author as my own Father has passed away. And then came the chapter of meeting and speaking to a US President. And of course had to get political and bash the then current President. Just another piece of material that just loves to bash and pile on to the current media narrative. Why cant this be left out of a touching book. Why get political in a book not about politics. Someone needs to remind the author that Republicans buy books too. The author also narrated the book. Was so mundane that it often times put me to sleep. I returned the book after the Presidents bashing so I don't know how it ends. Will also toss the physical book in my recycling bin and send it to the curb where this book belongs.

Loved this book

Revisado: 01-16-23

Came across this book and figured to give it a try as I had enjoyed Genna Davis in movies. This Story is both interesting and informative. I really enjoyed the stories about her family and her imitations of her parents especially her Mom really cracked me up. Her journey to stardom and beyond was interesting and had good stories from the set. I encourage others to read this as well. An easy fun read…now I’m going to watch one of her movies again.

It wasn’t as good as I had hoped but still a good read. If you liked the movie give this a try.

Great read

Revisado: 01-29-22

Another fine read from Agatha Christie. Really enjoyed all the complex characters in the story. The book had several twists and turns and in the end had a good pay off. My only complaint was the performer reading the book. His accents were so difficult to understand that I wound up reading the actual book and listening along during certain parts. I just wish he would have read the book and not acted it out.

I was hooked from the first word

Revisado: 01-15-22

What a great book from the multi talented Sutton Foster! I really enjoyed the journey that the author took me on. Telling details of her life and career while mixing in how crocheting was an important part of her life. Not only is Sutton a talented writer and actress but an amazing broadway performer. I recommend this book and also urge everyone to see Sutton perform live on a Broadway stage. Brava Sutton!

Oh Captain My Captain

Revisado: 07-10-21

I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Growing up as a child watching the Love Boat I knew about Gavin. Recently started to re watch the Love Boat on a streaming service and enjoyed it all over again. Stumbled across the book and was pleasantly surprised. His stores were funny and his journey is pretty remarkable. Any fan of his will really enjoy the book. Hearing him read with his New York accent was also enjoyable. Sadly he passed while I was reading and the end kinda hit home when he discussed when. His final days would come. He might be with the Lord now but his legacy will live on forever in these pages and on our screens.

Murder Mystery with Romance

Revisado: 04-29-21

Read an article on possible books that should be made into Netflix shows and this book was on the list. With that decided to give it a try.

I enjoyed the banter between characters as well as its clever writing. Most of the characters were fun and interesting.

The story moves along and is easy to follow. I did find the narrator to be a bit bland and listening you can almost hear the narrator getting dry mouth and spit into the microphone. That made it a bit distracting at times. Otherwise a good read that’s not too long but not too short. Would say to give it a chance.

Sarah is one tough woman

Revisado: 03-10-21

Really thought provoking and insightful look into the Trump White House from someone who was right on the front lines. I enjoyed the various stories she told about her time in the Trump White House. Hearing these stories first hand were both fun and informative. Sarah has always been a tough woman to have dealt with what was thrown at her. She is an inspiration to women everywhere. Highly recommend this enjoyable book. Good luck with the Governor run Sarah.

Final Chapter in Sideways Trilogy

Revisado: 12-15-20

Say it ain’t so! The final chapter in the Sideways trilogy comes to a funny and tender end. While it wasn’t as good as the two previous novels I still enjoyed it. To me it was a bit too short and I kinda liked it when Myles was with other people on his journey. I did like the banter between Myles and Silvio. All in all a decent funny read.
