Very Liberal View last 10 minutes
Reviewed: 09-23-23
Very disappointed in the last 10 minutes. Turned to Trump Admin bashing and stated many “facts” that have been proven false after 5 years of investigations. I’m not sure when this was recorded, but it was stating facts now known in 2023.

Too easy to figure out
Reviewed: 08-05-19
I really, really wanted to like this book, but I had it figured out almost from the beginning. I might have liked it better except for the narrator. She was very monotone. I love to listen to books while I drive, but I could not listen to this one. The narrator's monotone voice almost put me to sleep. I love southern murder mysteries, but this one was just too predictable. There could have been a bit more humor mixed in and more interesting characters to make a more fun read.

Depressing
Reviewed: 07-29-18
If you want a book that is a joy to read, get something else.
You keep hoping they grow up and do better but they keep getting worse and keep holding grudges.
Should have been named “The Vindictive Country “.
