Historia
Last summer, The New Yorker published chef Anthony Bourdain's shocking, "Don't Eat Before Reading This." Now, the author uses the same "take-no-prisoners" attitude in his deliciously funny and shockingly delectable audiobook, sure to delight gourmands and philistines alike.

What a ride, what a life
Revisado: 04-13-19
Me critique Mr. Bourdain? Come on, get real.
The one jem tho is that now that he’s gone, we have one of his best other offerings to savor in his own voice - An author’s personal narration of their best, and Anthony’s at that. It’s something I so wish we had from so many others now gone, and it clearly reflects why such is so much more then simply getting it from the originator.
More authors should realize this.
This is one book narration that entirely shows why those who say audio books cheapen books, just don’t get it.

Honesty in short supply
Revisado: 06-12-18
Love that Charlie narrated this himself, I’d guess it sounds as it should from only his lips.
Fantastically honest and smart, we need much more of this sort.
In short - Excellent

Historia
John Dean's last New York Times best seller, Worse Than Watergate: The Secret Presidency of George W. Bush, offered the former White House insider's unique and telling perspective on George W. Bush's presidency. Once again, Dean employs his distinctive knowledge and understanding of Washington politics and process to examine the conservative movement's current inner circle of radical Republican leaders, from Capitol Hill to Pennsylvania Avenue to K Street and beyond.

Fantastic, clearly researched, smart
Revisado: 03-16-18
Dovetail this with ‘How Democracies Die’ and you will scare yourself to death.
So well done, except that detailed cryptic “Personalities” section in Chapters 2 & 3 do not lend well to this audio format.
For me, this is the kind of well researched, fact packed, yet still ‘story interesting’ book I love.
Obviously extensively researched.

Historia
History remembers Robert F. Kennedy as a racial healer, a tribune for the poor, and the last progressive knight of a bygone era of American politics. But Kennedy's enshrinement in the liberal pantheon was actually the final stage of a journey that had its beginnings in the conservative 1950s. In Bobby Kennedy, Larry Tye peels away layers of myth and misconception to paint a complete portrait of this singularly fascinating figure.

Unfurnished, a bit long, but still good
Revisado: 12-24-17
Author claims his account in this book is intended to be unfurnished like many that have been written before with lots of fluff and praise for Kennedy and I think that's generally what he's ended up with. Very factual lots of detail lots of quotes from others and digging for the story, and some places it might get a little long for some, but in the end it's a good story that ends in the bed story is that we all know, but it's a nice honest account of a complex man and his mixed personality and it reads well.

Liked the book in general. Still trying to figure out tho why I didn't love it because it's well done. The start of the book could be misleading.

Historia
Awe and exhilaration—along with heartbreak and mordant wit—abound in Lolita, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsession for the nymphet Dolores Haze. Lolita is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America.

Don't quit early, finish this book!
Revisado: 09-08-17
What about Jeremy Irons’s performance did you like?
Excellent
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I almost quit this book because the subject and main character's early discussion of his sick affliction was sickening, I am so glad I went on to finish the story.
Far from what I expected would be the story.
