Historia
It is 1997, and Amber Young has received a life-changing call. It’s a chance thousands of girls would die for: the opportunity to join girl group Cloud9 in Los Angeles and escape her small town. She quickly finds herself in the orbits of fellow rising stars Gwen Morris, a driven singer-dancer, and Wes Kingston, a member of the biggest boy band in the world, ETA. As Amber embarks on her solo career and her fame intensifies, her rich interior life is frequently reduced.

Fantastic Debut!

Excellent character development & dialogue, and wonderful narrator. Fun read for those of us who were born in the 70s or 80s.

The poetry of Nikki Giovanni has spurred movements, turned hearts, and informed generations. She's been hailed as a firebrand, a radical, a healer, and a sage; a wise and courageous voice who has spoken out on the sensitive issues, including race and gender, that touch our national consciousness.

A gorgeous little book only made better with Dr. Giovanni herself reading it. I will return to these poems over and over again.

Historia
Stephen Satlow is an eight-year-old boy living in Brooklyn, New York, which means he only cares about one thing - the Dodgers. Steve and his father spend hours reading the sports pages and listening to games on the radio. Aside from an occasional run-in with his teacher, life is pretty simple for Steve. But then Steve hears a rumor that an African-American family is moving to his all-Jewish neighborhood. It's 1948 and some of his neighbors are against it. Steve knows this is wrong. His hero, Jackie Robinson, broke the color barrier in baseball the year before.

An uplifting story for all ages
Revisado: 02-26-24
Written by Jackie Robinson’s daughter Sharon, this is a heartwarming story of a friendship between a young boy and his baseball player hero who moved two doors down. It is the story of breaking down barriers of race and religion and discovering the friendship outweighs the differences among us. Terrific narration.

Interesting Narrative
Revisado: 02-22-24
Sometimes a little too “coincidental,” but the story was uplifting and the idea was creative.

Worthwhile Read, Perfect Narrator
Revisado: 06-27-23
Great story, if a bit painful at times. Tired of reading books with violence against women, but I suppose that’s reality. Excellent work by this author — hope she’ll write more.

Historia
Daisy is a girl coming of age in LA in the late '60s, sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are thrilling, but it’s the rock and roll she loves most. By the time she’s 20, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless beauty that makes people do crazy things. Also getting noticed is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne.

Fabulous Audiobook

Not sure I would have liked it as much if I’d read it myself, but this was a fantastic audiobook. Perfect mix of narrators, interesting novel design, fun twists in the narrative.

Historia
In 1985, Anthony Ray Hinton was arrested and charged with two counts of capital murder in Alabama. Stunned, confused, and only 29 years old, Hinton knew that it was a case of mistaken identity and believed that the truth would prove his innocence and ultimately set him free. But with an incompetent defense attorney and a different system of justice for a poor black man in the South, Hinton was sentenced to death by electrocution. He spent his first three years on Death Row at Holman State Prison in despairing silence.

DOWN WITH CAPITAL PUNISHMENT!!!

Gorgeous Book
Revisado: 12-09-22
One of the best Audible books I’ve purchased. Not only has Hinton written a powerful, honest, gripping story about his experience; Kevin Free narrates it as beautifully as can be imagined. A book about Justice, Equity, Compassion, Growth, and Forgiveness. This one will stick with me for a long time.

Historia
Ta-Nehisi Coates' debut is an infectious, reflective memoir - a lyrical saga of surviving the crack-stricken streets of Baltimore in the '80s. Son of Vietnam vet and black awareness advocate Paul Coates - a poor man who set out to publish lost classics of black history - Ta-Nehisi drifts toward salvation at Howard University, while his ominous brother Big Bill finds his own rhythm hustling.

Gorgeously written, perfect narration
Revisado: 10-10-21
Ta-Nehisi Coates weaves his words masterfully. I am a huge fan of his prose, as it allows the reader to dance along through the chapters as though you’re experiencing the story with him. The narrator was perfect for this book - engaging and expressive.

Historia
Meredith and Nina Whitson are as different as sisters can be. One stayed at home to raise her children and manage the family apple orchard; the other followed a dream and traveled the world to become a famous photojournalist. But when their beloved father falls ill, Meredith and Nina find themselves together again, standing alongside their cold, disapproving mother, Anya, who even now, offers no comfort to her daughters.

Meh. Not what I’d expected
Revisado: 06-27-21
Horribly narrated accents, especially the attempted Irish brogue. The story was too drawn out, the characters all unlikable, and much of the plot tied up too beautifully (eg, Meredith’s marriage troubles and Nina’s love story). Pretty nauseating, really. I’m glad I listened in 2X so I wasted only half the hours.
