I have already recommended this book to a friend. It is filled with anecdotes and examples of many behaviors that readers may consider to be their own, personal faults. This book is filled with positivity and encouragement. It assures readers that they are in good company and provides the guidance and step by step plan needed to raise productivity levels. Thank you!

Hoping Daniel reappears in another novel

I really enjoyed how the characters from Higgins’ other stories - Leo and Jenny for example - are included in this book. It adds so much to the characters’ personalities to see them from another perspective. Well written!

This story was well written and a joy to listen to. The characters were fully developed and the details were spot on. I loved reminiscing about the whale, in particular. It was a pleasure to find myself fully immersed in the story line. I enjoyed this novel so much, I listened to it twice! The narrator did an amazing job, as well. I hope they collaborate again.

Love the Luke Stone series!

I cheated and read the prequels first. They were great! But, I think Oath of Office has been my favorite so far! This bundle was addictive and fun! Great vacation reads. Except, I wasn’t on vacation. I found myself cleaning a lot more, to feel less guilty about how much time I spent listening to them! Very entertaining and easy to get lost in. Starting the next book in a few minutes :)

I have really enjoyed the entire Luke Stone series! The narrator needs to work on his sound effects and the cadence of his voice. It doesn’t fit this type of story.

Thandie Newton is phenomenal!

Reviewed: 01-24-18

I had not read this book since high school. While I enjoyed it then, this audiobook took this novel to a whole other level! Thandie Newton commanded my attention from the first page. Her vocal range - abilitity to vary tone and depth - astonished me. I was completely absorbed in the story every time I listened. It reminded me of how my grandmother recounted she would gather around the fireplace with her sisters to hear her father tell a story. That is how warm and genuine and familiar Newton presented this work. Male voices were performed flawlessly and never once distracted me from the details in the novel. I highly recommend listening to Newton's performance. It was a joy rediscovering this book!

I appreciated that the porn actors and actresses were given a chance to have their voices heard. Listening to them discuss how pornhub has effected every aspect of their lives - even their ability to parent their children and shield their kids from their parent's private choices - was eye opening. It was heart breaking to hear about their inability to switch careers, because they have become so widely recognized, they are more of a liability to employers.

Erectile disfunction has increased 1,000%! That is a devistating statistic. As the parent of two teenage girls, I worry about what boys will expect of them or their friends on dates. And what their future partners will expect, as well. This book was interesting because I had no idea what pornhub was, until my 15 year old made a joke about it, a few months ago. She said EVERYONE knew what it was! It shocks and saddens me that she was right.

The narrator put me off a bit. There were a few instances when his enthusiasm on the set of porn movies seemed overly creepy. However, overall, I would recommend this Audio book/ Podcast, Documentary. It addresses a number of topics that cannot be ignored. The irony that tens of thousands of men would rather have sex with --- or more importantly, CAN only become aroused with blow up dolls or by watching people on a screen having sex ---- is devastating to contemplate. It does not seem hyped or inflated -- just shocking.
