Of course I’m a Democrat. But in all honesty this is a well written book and the narration is spot on. It truly gave me some new insight into this nightmare excuse of a president we have.

Historia
On a foggy summer night, 11 people - 10 privileged, one down-on-his-luck painter - depart Martha's Vineyard on a private jet headed for New York. Sixteen minutes later, the unthinkable happens: The plane plunges into the ocean. The only survivors are the painter Scott Burroughs and a four-year-old boy, who is now the last remaining member of an immensely wealthy and powerful media mogul's family. Was it by chance that so many influential people perished? Or was something more sinister at work?

This was a well written book and the narration is fantastic. It can be a bit difficult in a few spots to keep the characters straight but I enjoyed it.
I listen to around 3 books a week if not more.

Historia
An 11-year-old boy's violated corpse is found in a town park. Eyewitnesses and fingerprints point unmistakably to one of Flint City's most popular citizens. He is Terry Maitland, Little League coach, English teacher, husband, and father of two girls. Detective Ralph Anderson, whose son Maitland once coached, orders a quick and very public arrest. Maitland has an alibi, but Anderson and the district attorney soon add DNA evidence to go with the fingerprints and witnesses. Their case seems ironclad.

I can't begin to do this book justice with a review. it is, as always, a wonder. The story is A+++, the characters are like people you know and love, the narrator is beyond belief.

Historia
When two Union soldiers stumble onto a plantation in northern Georgia on a warm May day in 1864, the last thing they expect is to see the Union flag flying high - or to be greeted by a group of freed slaves and their Jewish mistress. Little do they know that this place has an unusual history. Twelve years prior, Adelaide Mannheim - daughter of Mordecai, the only Jewish planter in the county - was given her own maid, a young slave named Rachel. The two became friends, and soon they discovered a secret.

I listened to this book in one long stretch. I am crying as I have just finished the book and I am broken hearted that it is over. The book, the narrator, the characters....it was all simply fabulous.

This was an interesting story. An easy listen.
The female narrators was excellent and the male narrator was a bit flat...but it's okay.

I would loan this to a friend.
Revisado: 03-23-16
What was one of the most memorable moments of Girl in the Red Coat?
Being from the south I really enjoyed the backwoods healers. Hamer painted a great picture of how hypocritical and insane the religious fanatics can be and at the same time made it into an entertaining and at times comical portrayal.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Hamer and Beamish did a wonderful job conveying the desperation of the mother when her daughter went, and then stayed, missing.
Any additional comments?
I read some critical comments about the ending and I will have to say I thought it was a great ending. I truly enjoyed this book.

Listened to it from start to finish.
Revisado: 03-23-16
What made the experience of listening to Pretty Girls the most enjoyable?
It is rare to get a book, audible or paper, that you can't put down and on top of that Slaughter did an epic job with the story.
What did you like best about this story?
I loved the rhythm of this book. The story the plot...it was well thought out and well executed.
Have you listened to any of Kathleen Early’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No this is the first time I have listened to Kathleen Early. I am a fan.
Any additional comments?
I put off listening, purchasing, this book due to a few bad reviews and finally, as it kept showing up, I just said what the hell. It is a graphically violent book. However, having said that, it is done so well that, while somewhat disturbing, it serves a purpose and should not be cast as a shortfall.

Not exactly as suspenseful as I had expected.
Revisado: 03-05-16
I found the story hard to follow for the first half of the book and the second half didn't make up for it. I dislike it when an author pulls a villian out of a hat with no foreshadowing or without a dribble of story until bam! the person is guilty. it felt like it began and ended on a pretty blah note. The narrator did a good job. it wasn't a bad book and it wasn't a good book.
