Histoire
Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

Good overall

A well-told story with solid narration. Lost me at the ending which I found to be flat and predictable.

Histoire
Big companies spend a fortune marketing their wares and services. Can yours? Invariably people ask advertising veteran and CBC Radio host Terry O'Reilly one question more than any other: How does a little business compete with the big guys? After decades at the helm of an award-winning advertising production company, and over a decade exploring the art and science of marketing for CBC Radio, O'Reilly delivers all the answers they - and anyone with something to sell - ever wanted to know.

As a huge fan of Terry's podcast, I recognize that many of the stories in this book are not new. But Terry's ability to weave an interesting story and impart relevant marketing lessons does not disappoint. I love that he's able to capture and keep my attention through this entire book. Well done!

Overrated

I really wanted to love this book. The overall concept is interesting and I bought it because the reviews were so great, but I found the story to be disappointing and it was a struggle to make it to the end.

Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities ("It's a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!") I have decided to tell these stories just as I have always done, in my own voice.

If you're looking for a raunchy, tell-all from Dave's Nirvana days or a backstage look at life on the road, find another book. The Storyteller lives up to its name and Dave's gratitude is a central theme throughout the book. I'm sure I would have loved this book had I read the print version, but I'm thrilled I got to hear it in his voice. If you're a Dave Grohl fan, this book will not disappoint.

Histoire
Malibu: August 1983. It’s the day of Nina Riva’s annual end-of-summer party, and anticipation is at a fever pitch. Everyone wants to be around the famous Rivas: Nina, the talented surfer and supermodel; brothers Jay and Hud, one a championship surfer, the other a renowned photographer; and their adored baby sister, Kit. Together the siblings are a source of fascination in Malibu and the world over—especially as the offspring of the legendary singer Mick Riva. The only person not looking forward to the party of the year is Nina herself.

Just okay
Évalué le: 2021-06-21
I think Daisy Jones and The Six ruined me for all other Taylor Jenkins Reid books. The story and characters in Malibu Rising paled in comparison. It was okay. A solid summer listen, I guess. But that's it.

Once a luxurious Southern getaway on a rustic lake, then reduced to a dilapidated crash pad, the Summer House is now the grisly scene of a nighttime mass murder. Eyewitnesses point to four Army Rangers - known as the Night Ninjas - recently returned from Afghanistan. To ensure that justice is done, the Army sends Major Jeremiah Cook, a veteran and former NYPD cop, to investigate. But the major and his elite team arrive in sweltering Georgia with no idea their grim jobs will be made exponentially more challenging by local law enforcement....

Formulaic and predictable

I was really hoping I'd like this more than I did. I thought the narrator did a great job but the story was predictable and the drama surrounding the big reveal was incredibly boring.

Histoire
Bryan Cranston landed his first role at seven, when his father, a struggling actor and director, cast him in a United Way commercial. Soon Bryan was haunting the local movie theater, memorizing and reenacting favorite scenes with his older brother. Acting was clearly the boy's destiny - until one day his father disappeared. Suddenly destiny took a backseat to survival. Seeking something more stable, perhaps subconsciously trying to distance himself from his absent father, Cranston decided on a career in law enforcement.

I have a love-hate relationship with autobiographies. In the first few chapters, I'm intrigued and interested to learn more about the book's author. But about halfway through the book, I start to lose interest and begin questioning his/her version of events. By the end of the book -- if I can be bothered to make it there -- I'm pretty much done with the author.
This was not the case for A Life in Parts. I listened (and finished) this book over a few days and never once did I think about skipping ahead or not finishing. Bryan's book details a life full of adventure, with meaningful observations and life lessons scattered throughout. I highly recommend it.
Oh, and having his voice in my ear for almost 9 hours was an added bonus. He could make my grocery list seem interesting.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this story. Often the ending reveals itself in the first few chapters and you just trudge along until you reach the obvious conclusion. This book offered up plenty of plot twists and surprises. I loved it.

Histoire
The correspondence between Carrie Allsop and David Mayer reveals, piece by piece, the painful details of a devastating affair between their spouses. With each commiserating scratch of the pen, they confess their fears and bare their souls. They share the bewilderment over how things went so wrong and come to wonder where to go from here. Told entirely through the letters of two comforting strangers and those of two illicit lovers, Evidence of the Affair explores the complex nature of the heart. And ultimately, for one woman, how liberating it can be when it’s broken.

Predictable
Évalué le: 2019-12-17
I'm a huge fan of Taylor Jenkins Reid so I was surprised by how disappointing this title was, and quite frankly, consider the purchase to be a waste of an Audible credit. The story was predictable and I was relieved that it ended quickly.
