Diana Shields

Good read, but ….

Revisado: 12-14-21

Good book and the narration is excellent. However, the storyline jumps around a bit and is a little too much in favor of Charles and critical of Diana. Doubtless, there were faults on both sides, but the author seems prone to accept the Prince’s version.

Too much filler

Revisado: 03-28-18

Disappointing book overall. Way too much time spent on descriptions of meals, foods, etc and way too little mystery. Mystery itself was obvious as soon as the character was introduced.

Definitely not an anti Hillary book

Revisado: 04-24-17

This is not an anti-Hillary Clinton book. It is an interesting read, but the tone of the book is more "Poor Hillary; she would have won if only ________". With her own name rarely filling in that blank. The authors seem to struggle with the same challenge as the Clinton campaign: why didn't this supposedly so well qualified candidate with what they call the best campaign operatives still not win the Presidency? The simple fact that many Americans didn't trust her and didn't believe her seemingly escaping them.

Non Clinton supporters will need a strong stomach as incidences are usually presented in the best light for her. Benghazi was a "cool and collected performance" instead of acknowledging the devastating "what difference does it make"

All in all an interesting book, bit leaves a lot of questions still unanswered

Too much filler

Revisado: 03-25-17

If you remove the very detailed descriptions of meals eaten and recipes, there's not a lot left for this book. I was so looking forward to the newest Hannah escapades and uhhh

The whole Ross storyline isn't working... rushed marriage, no discussions of their future before hand, more interested in spending time with her sister and friends than her new husband and then the mysterious ending. Ugh!

Losing Interest

Revisado: 12-09-16

I'll probably struggle on with the 3rd book in the series, but I'm not in any hurry. I normally can't wait for the next book, but the logic gaps and obvious plot twists are not making me want to start any time soon. Ransom Riggs' series is probably okay for the actual young adult market, but doesn't really hold up for the move outside that age level.

It's Okay

Revisado: 12-09-16

The series is okay, but not nearly as strong as some other 'young adult' books.
Narrator kept forgetting the accents he was using for various characters; it was more amusing than annoying, but did distract from the listening experience. Does seem to improve in the second bookd.

Good Foundation for this Key Issue

Revisado: 12-09-16

This book provides a good fundamental exposure to the key issues around Islamic Terrorism and how we got to where we are today. Some of the points need more details or expansion and Wade's narration was a little wooden at times.

Common Sense Conservatism

Revisado: 12-09-16

Where does Upside Down rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

For those familiar with Mark's radio show(s), this book is an expansion of some of the key ideas he's expressed over the years. If you're not, treat yourself to some fundamental conservative ideas -- with a strong dose of common sense thrown in for good measure.

Ugh. Stop at #14 for your sake

Revisado: 05-28-16

JP should've stopped at 14 with this series. This was over blown melodrama. Normally, I want the books to continue after the end because I've gotten invested in the characters; this time I wanted it to end cause they were so annoying. LB had gone from tough, confident women to a basket case that falls apart and nice guy Joe can't find a way to leave word with the women he loves... Not to mention super cop didn't realize her husband had a secret life? Spare me from #16.

Performance is also bad. Half the women sound like bad valley girl imitations

Too long and too obvious

Revisado: 03-10-16

Took far too long to reveal what was obvious
Not one of James
