Historia
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

You will really enjoy this book - it underscores how people can become irrational for a cause!

Historia
Zachary Quinto - best known for his role as the Nimoy-approved Spock in the recent Star Trek reboot and the menacing, power-stealing serial killer, Sylar, in Heroes - brings his well-earned sci-fi credentials and simmering intensity to this audio-exclusive novella from master storyteller John Scalzi. One day, not long from now, it becomes almost impossible to murder anyone - 999 times out of a thousand, anyone who is intentionally killed comes back. How? We don't know.

One of the most unique stories ever written!
Revisado: 04-04-25
What an incredible story, and so well-written. I could have listened to a book many times longer, just to flush out the moral and philosophical implications of the events taking place. This idea of a world where being murdered is not always the end of your life could easily be made into mini-series or a movie. A great read and a thoroughly unique plot!

Historia
Influencer Whitney Golden has it all: beautiful, photogenic children; a handsome new boyfriend; a gorgeous house; and designer clothes and beauty products that arrive on her doorstep every day. After spending years building her brand as a widowed mother of four (including twins!) to over a million followers, the thirty-seven-year-old is at the peak of her career. But it all comes to a screeching halt when Mia, her teenaged daughter, announces she’s tired of the social media life.

A relevant story in this day and age SPOILERS
Revisado: 04-01-25
After listening to this story, I have completely reconsidered and changed how my last minor child is "displayed" on social media. This was a unique and relevant plot that addresses an issue that few people seem to think about - how influencer families use their children (and affect their futures) for financial gain. SPOILER ALERT: I do wish the author had gone deeper into the potential legal ramifications of the case, and had the characters actually go to trial rather than settle (if you can even call it a settlement). I think had she done some research into privacy law, she could have made a compelling story out of the court case itself. Instead, she took the easy way out and wrapped everything up with a nice neat bow at the end. Maybe John Grisham will take a crack at a story like this and bring it to a climactic ending using their legal expertise.

Historia
They call me Big Pickle. It's not what you think. (Although that's true, too.) I happen to be the oldest Pickle in the family deli business. And we have the best salami. Take that one however you like. But when my father announces the franchise will go to the most profitable of the three brothers, I learn that even though I'm the eldest Pickle, I'm dead last. I hightail it to Texas to see what's happened to my restaurant, only to find a sassy little spitfire named Nova Strong in charge. She's amazing. She's sexy. She runs our deli like she owns it.

Cute story at first - but then just becomes porn
Revisado: 12-29-24
I am sure this was a cute story, but by chapter 20 or so, the 2 main characters can't get through a single chapter without having sex. It completely takes away from the plot line. Apparently the author thinks grown adults behave this way. I don't mind a rom-com story, but this devolved into smut.

In modern-day America, Dez is a former lawyer and teacher - an ephebophile with a proclivity for teenage girls hiding out in a trailer park with his latest conquest, Chloe.
Having been in and out of courtrooms (and therapists' offices) for a number of years, Dez is adrift, at odds with a society that persecutes him over his desires. From his couch one afternoon, Dez watches an interview with Jasper Ulrickson, a doting father and loving husband whose heartrending memoir, Lessons from My Daughter, has become a national best seller.

Decent story
Revisado: 12-15-24
Interesting plot line, although some of the events are pretty contrived. The author should have done a little more research on the legal system before writing about the criminal justice system. Good story, but could have been better with some attention to detail.

Historia
The Messiah is back… and he's not thrilled about it. Imagine waking up and realizing you’re the Second Coming—except you're a Yankees fan, love beer and pizza, confused, and would really rather not. Meet Jesus 2.0: a reluctant savior dropped into an end-of-the-world mess complete with divine deadlines, angelic HR reps, and a prophecy no one remembers writing. If you enjoy: 🔥 Satirical fiction with bite 📚 Dark comedy in the vein of Good Omens or Hitchhiker's Guide 🙃 Twisted takes on religion, destiny, and cosmic red tape... Then you’ll love this irreverent, thought-provoking...

Great story, but Virtual Voice ruins it!
Revisado: 12-15-24
The story is great, but the virtual voice narration is awful on this title. The mispronounced words and inappropriate inflections are incredibly distracting. Example - the New York neighborhood called Tribeca (try-Beck-uh) is pronounced "Try Bee Caw" and the word "dour" (dow-er) is pronounced "doooor". I avoid Virtual Voice as a rule, but the storyline intrigued me. Should have just read the book ...

Historia
One in four Americans rejects any affiliation with organized religion, and nearly half of those under 30 describe themselves as "spiritual but not religious". But as the airwaves resound with the haranguing of preachers and pundits, who speaks for the millions who find no joy in whittling the wonder of existence to a simple yes/no choice? Lesley Hazleton does.

I could't get past the voice
Revisado: 09-28-24
I tried listening to this, but the author/narrator's voice is just not made for audiobooks. I will purchase this book to read. Audible really should have paid someone to read this. The author's gravelly voice is just not ... pleasant.

When Brian Holloway (Jack Quaid, The Boys) was hired by famous horror author Paul Robinette (Titus Welliver, Bosch) to crack an antique safe in his home, he had no idea what he was about to encounter. Opening that safe door unleashed something sinister — something that continues to haunt him. But what exactly? And can whatever slipped through that threshold be stopped?

The acting was well done and the story was fascinating. This was a far cry different from The Lincoln Lawyer - glad Connelly branched out!

Historia
She’s got a great job at a VA Hospital, an adorable daughter, and a loving husband. Granted, it would be wonderful if her preschooler wouldn’t wake her up at three in the morning, and it would be a miracle if her husband would change the toilet paper roll once every millennium. Still, in most ways, she has the ideal life she’d always imagined. Then Jane discovers that Dr. Ryan Reilly is the VA’s newest vascular surgeon. Dr. Ryan Reilly, a.k.a. sexy surgeon, a.k.a. the biggest jerk she ever loved.

It was okay ... until the last 15 minutes.
Revisado: 04-17-24
Good story, decent plot line, and pretty good narration. But the premise is highly unlikely - a real lawyer, with the same background and the circumstances of the murder, would NEVER have taken on this case. In the last 15 minutes, the author decided on a ridiculously contrived ending, which I found disappointing. I actually stopped listening 5 minutes into the ending when I saw where it was going, because it was just too ridiculous. Sometimes it's better to not find out "whodunit" than for the real perp to be someone so unlikely. Not sure if I will enjoy any more of Hartstone's books, knowing what could wait for me at the end.
