I love Alaska, and really loved this book. Very informative. I lived there as a child and was there when the 1964 earthquake happened.

Clanton, Mississippi. 1990. Jake Brigance finds himself embroiled in a deeply divisive trial when the court appoints him attorney for Drew Gamble, a timid sixteen-year-old boy accused of murdering a local deputy. Many in Clanton want a swift trial and the death penalty, but Brigance digs in and discovers that there is more to the story than meets the eye. Jake’s fierce commitment to saving Drew from the gas chamber puts his career, his financial security, and the safety of his family on the line.

The opening sentence of John Irving's breakout novel, The World According to Garp, signals the start of sexual violence, which becomes increasingly political. "Garp's mother, Jenny Fields, was arrested in Boston in 1942 for wounding a man in a movie theater." Jenny is an unmarried nurse; she becomes a single mom and a feminist leader, beloved but polarizing. Her son, Garp, is less beloved, but no less polarizing.

I loved listening to John Irving books! He develops his characters so fully you come to know them and miss them when they are gone from the story or the book is over. Overall excellent book!

Narration on Speed
Revisado: 06-26-19
As with all of Greg Iles books I’ve listened too so far, I thoroughly enjoyed and was immersed in the story. The narrator however spoke so fast, especially at the beginning that I had to sky’s it down to .75! She finally settled into a good speed and let the story come through.

Revisado: 08-18-17
I was in this earthquake. I was 11 years old at the time. I remember much of what was told here, the JCPenney wall falling on the car, 4th street sinking, even the guy with the trumpet and much more. Learning now of the scientific side of the quake was so very enlightening and enjoyable. I'll listen to this book over and over. Only wish my Dad was still alive to hear it. He wrote his account of what all happened to us that day. He would of really enjoyed this book as well. Unfortunately he passed away 2 years ago. Thank you for writing such an informative yet entertaining account of what is still the scariest day of my life.

Meet Ove. He's a curmudgeon - the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him "the bitter neighbor from hell". But behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness.

After working one of the worst mass killings in U.S. history, Scarpetta returns home to Cambridge, Massachusetts. Exhausted and ill, she's recovering at home when she receives an unsettling call. The body of a young woman has been discovered on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's rugby field. The victim, a graduate student named Gail Shipman, is oddly draped in ivory linen and posed in a way that is too deliberate to be the killer's first strike.
