Jonathan Forest should never have hired Sam. It was a sentimental decision, and Jonathan didn't get where he is by following his heart. Determined to set things right, Jonathan orders Sam down to London for a difficult talk…only for a panicking Sam to trip, bump his head, and maybe accidentally imply he doesn't remember anything?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 13
They lived happily ever after - the last line of every fairy tale, every romance. But how happily can you live? How long can "ever after" last? This third and final audiobook in the Dog in the Chapel series finds Tom and Christopher still together during the middle section of their lives: a very ordinary couple living in France. But there are challenges aplenty to face: disaster aboard a big ship; the tiniest of enemies, the AIDS virus. The struggle to make a living renovating Dordogne cottages; the task of making relationships work.

Story5 out of 5 stars 455
In 2018, Colton Haynes woke up in a hospital. He’d had two seizures, lost vision in one eye, almost ruptured a kidney, and been put on an involuntary psychiatric hold. Not yet thirty, he knew he had to take stock of his life and make some serious changes if he wanted to see his next birthday. As he worked towards sobriety, Haynes allowed himself to become vulnerable for the first time and discovered profound self-awareness. He had millions of social media followers who constantly told him they loved him.

Honest, heart wrenching, yet full of love
Reviewed: 02-24-23
This memoir holds nothing back. Colton's honesty through the most difficult times only confirms what a hero he really is. Being gay, being closeted, difficult upbringing, being famous, severe depression and substance addictions, it is all there, but his determination to overcome all the negatives gives the reader faith in the human spirit.

It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother’s coffin as the world watched in sorrow—and horror. As Princess Diana was laid to rest, billions wondered what Prince William and Prince Harry must be thinking and feeling—and how their lives would play out from that point on.

I wanted to read Harry's book, because I was sure there was more than one side to his story. It seems that the press again tried to ruin the lives for their own gain. Harry talks about his struggles and mistakes before he met Meghan and the horrible way that were treated after they became a couple. I'm glad I read his account.

One rainy night, the unthinkable happens: Dylan Moran’s car plunges off the road into a raging river, his beautiful wife drowning as he struggles to shore. In the aftermath, through his grief, Dylan experiences sudden, strange visions: wherever he goes, he’s haunted by glimpses of himself. Dylan initially chalks it up to trauma, but that changes when he runs into a psychiatrist who claims he’s her patient. She says he has been undergoing a unique hypnotherapy treatment built on the idea that with every choice, he creates an infinite number of parallel universes.

After having his heart trampled on by his cheating ex, Carter Ogden is afraid love just isn’t in the cards for him. He still holds out hope in a tiny corner of his heart, but even in his wildest dreams he never thought he’d meet the Crown Prince of England, much less do a lot more with him. Yes, growing up he’d fantasized about the handsome, openly gay Prince Edgar, but who hadn’t? When they meet by chance at an event Carter’s boss is organizing, Carter’s sure he imagined all that sizzling chemistry. Or was it mutual?

The plot of this story was a bit weak at the beginning, but it developed nicely as it went on. However, the narration was what made this a worthwhile listen. Michael Urie's ability to change voices and accents really brought the story to life.

Di Canzio follows their story past the end of Maurice to the front lines of battle in World War I and beyond. Forster, who tried to write an epilogue about the future of his characters, was stymied by the radical change that the Great War brought to their world. With the hindsight of a century, di Canzio imagines a future for them and a past for Alec—a young villager possessed of remarkable passion and self-knowledge.

This novel is a wonderful continuation of the E.M. Forster original. The writing seems to belong to the same narrative. I was very pleased. Highly recommended.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,358
In layered prose and with thoughtful, accessible scholarship, Aslan narrates the history of religion as one long and remarkably cohesive attempt to understand the divine by giving it human traits and emotions. According to Aslan, this innate desire to humanize God is hardwired in our brains, making it a central feature of nearly every religious tradition. As Aslan writes, "Whether we are aware of it or not, and regardless if we are believers or not, what the vast majority of us think about when we think about God is a divine version of ourselves."

This thought provoking and excellently narrated book left me in awe. The history of belief and the conclusion the author comes to have got to have a profound impact on the listener (reader). As with his other books, as a believer, I have nothing but respect for Reza Aslan.

Meriam Margolres is a name I did not know, except as Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter series. Then as a Seth Meyers' fan I saw her a couple of weeks ago talking about her book. (I hope I put the apostrophe in the right place, Meriam) I was hooked as soon as she opened her mouth. I immediately bought both the Kindle and Audible editions and let her tell her story as I read along. Being from Guam, I was not familiar with many of the British personalities and films she described, but I constantly paused my reading to look them up on line. it was been a delightful two weeks spending time with Meriam and her friends, and I feel as if I've gained a new friend in Meriam, too.
