Historia
Examining murder from an insider’s perspective, Matt Murphy—a former senior deputy district attorney and current ABC News legal analyst—discusses cases from his career, how they strained his personal life, and how he found peace seeking justice for victims and their families. Part taxonomy of murder, part prosecutor’s handbook, and part personal memoir, The Book of Murder goes through a dozen cases and his recollections of his 26 years in the Orange County DA’s office (17 in the Homicide Unit).

Dang! Matt Murphy is a beast! And a sincerely caring human in one.

I really enjoyed this book. Very interesting to hear from the perspective of the legal side of these matters. The human experience to defend the victims. He very eloquently describes the worst cases he worked on; and it gives you many angles into the world of these terrible killers, the legal side and fighting for the victims to seek justice; as well as what justice means in the legal world. Great read. I’d love a second book if he writes one! Very captivating!

This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.

Vulnerable
Revisado: 11-16-24
She is gracious. Empathetic. Raw. A fighter. This is such a healing read if you experienced a traumatic upbringing. I’ll root her on as her- the person every time i see her acting. Beautiful vulnerability in this story.

Historia
Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening, her husband, Gabriel, returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety.

It’s always fun when a book captivates you within the first few minutes. Especially when you are left continually reevaluating where it will land. Great read.

Bizarre ending (no spoiler alert)

I love me a good thriller/suspense book especially with a twist.
I’m just still contemplating the ending here, but very entertaining.

Historia
I’ve been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries.

Best summary of what I feel about Mr McConaughey…As they say in Alice in wonderland…..
“Have I gone mad? I’m afraid so. Your entirely bonkers. But I’ll tell you a secret. All THE BEST PEOPLE ARE!” His vulnerability to tell the truth of truths and own it I just really enjoyed. This book made me smile the whole way through!

Maybe I was in an off mood when I started this story. But when I really started to listen. I loved it. Cried and cried. I wish I could listen to it again but for the first time. Loved it!

REBEL REBEL REBEL! I’m cheering and crying for you throughout this book!
Revisado: 04-10-24
I LOVE this book! Love! I finished it as quickly as I could and I am ready to restart it. Rebel was sooooo beautifully authentic about her life experiences. So moving to hear how she felt about herself as a human, as a daughter, as a big person and healthy and unhealthy person and how those all wrapped around each other. I cried and laughed throughout this book and I, as a big girl; couldn’t have been more grateful for someone to describe the invisibility you feel and the angst that is felt over food and emotions. I so appreciate the vulnerability she offers about her parental relationships. Sexual relationships. Self relationship. Sometimes we ‘see’ people on the screen and imagine we all come to our own conclusions about how their life must be so easy. We all have burdens, but the way Rebel tells of her life is so beautiful and painful and if I could send her one thank you for the brutality of writing this book, reliving it and offering it publicly I’m just grateful you did. You touched my heart and I’m a better person to have read this. Thank you!

Revisado: 07-21-23
What a journey this book takes you through. Such a life that some people endure you wonder how and if they can come out of it on the other side. I so appreciated this book, Minka’s view on her mother from childhood, and what that perception for her was like in her own adulthood. Beautiful life. Beautiful story.

I only try on one of Nina’s pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it’s like. But she soon finds out...and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it’s far too late. But I reassure myself: The Winchesters don’t know who I really am. They don’t know what I’m capable of....
