Good narrators...

Wouldn't recommend it, sorry

usually I love Robyn Peterman's books, but this one couldn't hold my interest. the characters lacked intelligence, and there didn't seem to be anything redeeming about them. the stories didn't really create interest, like they were written by a ghost writer.

Historia
Joe Grey can't believe his human housemate, Clyde, would even consider volunteering him for the Animal Therapy program at the local nursing home - just when Joe was on the verge of solving the string of burglaries that has Molena Point residents shaking in their collective boots. But it turns out it's Dulcie, Joe's pretty little cat-friend, who came up with the idea of subjecting Joe to the cooing attentions of a bunch of doddering old coots. Dulcie believes there's more going on at the old folks' home than the care and feeding of lonely seniors.

I got interested in this story line early and enjoyed it. I let go of ny suppositions of what cats know or don't know I just went without questioning it too much... it was a lovely story.

Historia
A big, powerful, gray feline, Joe Grey is perfectly content with his remarkable ability to understand and communicate with humans - especially now that he has company. A mysterious accident similar to the one that enabled him to speak and read has transformed his friend Dulcie as well. The trouble is, the cute tabby female not only hears human words, she believes them. Now she's convinced the man who was jailed for murdering a famous local artist and burning down her studio is innocent - simply because he says so - and she's willing to do whatever it takes to dig up the evidence that will exonerate the accused.

Historia
First the large, powerful feline discovers that, through some strange, inexplicable phenomenon, he now has the ability to understand human language. Then he discovers he can speak it as well! It’s a nightmare for a cat who’d prefer to sleep the day away carefree, but Joe can handle it. That is, until he has the misfortune to witness a murder in the alley behind Jolly’s Deli - and worse, to be seen witnessing it. With all of his nine lives suddenly at risk, Joe’s got no choice but to get to the bottom of the heinous crime.

Wonderful creative book
Revisado: 12-28-21
It's a clever book. I loved this book. it is written from a cat's perspective. Maybe you need to be an animal lover. or have you ever wondered what cats think? well here it is... .I loved the fanciful ideas from the first few sentences. they're like teasers to your imagination. the author described thoughts that a cat may think versus human thoughts. it is clever and ingenious. Other authors have tried but this writer gets you hooked with the first 3 or 4 lines. As you listen, the paragraphs pull you in as she elaborates on the Joe Grey, the cat's views of his human. As time goes on the cat's ideas are funny, how he describes his owner's behavior - the cat does not want to be human... he's happy as a feline 🐈

Historia
Born just fifteen months apart, Subhash and Udayan Mitra are inseparable brothers, one often mistaken for the other in the Calcutta neighborhood where they grow up. But they are also opposites, with gravely different futures ahead. It is the 1960s, and Udayan—charismatic and impulsive—finds himself drawn to the Naxalite movement, a rebellion waged to eradicate inequity and poverty; he will give everything, risk all, for what he believes.

Author needs to take lessons in creative writing !
Revisado: 04-23-19
I found this book disappointing overall. It seems the writer is inexperienced and has taken on too large a task. in addition, her editor should have led her away from the following pitfalls. The prose was written in 3rd person. The entire book was written as an epilogue! There was no insight within each person, there were absolutely a huge lack of conversations between characters. There was only narration, with limited insight about the character's inner self. This left the reader top wonder what each character experiences. After reading this book, I do not understand Gaori's motives or Subash's feelings. The dresser is left to wonder, does Subash feel angry at his treatment at the hands of his wife or his daughter, why does Gaori do what she does, why is she unable to bond with her daughter, is the pregnancy undesired? What iui s the abandoned daughter experiencing? it's left to the reader to intuit after many chapters and years of the daughter's life.

Historia
A ferocious firefight with Iraqi insurgents--caught on tape by an embedded Fox News crew--has transformed the eight surviving men of Bravo Squad into America’s most sought-after heroes. For the past two weeks, the Bush administration has sent them on a media-intensive nationwide Victory Tour to reinvigorate public support for the war. Now, on this chilly and rainy Thanksgiving, the Bravos are guests of a Dallas football team, slated to be part of the halftime show.

Need determination to continue book
Revisado: 11-20-18
It is a good book overall, but the beginning is slow and there's a lot of testosterone driven male conversation which can turn off a woman's interest. if a person can push past that, the author delivers a clean, deep insightful look at how the trauma of war affects a soldier's perspective in society; where he questions the value and worth of the mundane or the values/interests of the common people (who live without the effect of trauma).
The author also puts too many heavy ideas and thoughts, ruminations onto the perspective of the young soldier of 19 years. some of the ideas are possible but authorpushez it too far for it to be believable.
the writer is crisp and deep and has written amazing prose.
