Publisher's Summary:

The Kaminsky family lived under Communism and behind the iron curtain for generations. Vita and everyone she knew thought people who believed in God were ignorant and primitive. She hated being a Jew and despised the idea of going to Israel. In the late 1980s, when Perestroika allowed Jews to leave Russia, she had big dreams for success.

Looking for love and wealth, she left Russia for America, but nothing went as planned. Her life was a wild ride - and an amazing testimony to the incredible power and persistence of the loving God she refused to acknowledge. For years, he let her live in the messes she made, each time rescuing her at the last minute, until she finally called out to him. Vita's journey of transformation with dreams, wonders and miracles, dramatic relationships, divorce, and death ends with a divine love story that brings her to Peculiar, USA. You will never forget her story!

Language: English

Release date: 03-14-17

Publisher: Big Byte Books

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

This is the true story a woman swindled out of a fortune by her famous ex-Confederate-general husband, Philip Dale Roddey. You will find this story nowhere else in material about Roddey but it was splashed across the nation in newspapers in 1874 and followed closely by the New York Times.

From the date of their marriage until her trials for grand larceny and perjury, Carlotta Frances (Shotwell) Roddey believed nearly everything her charming southern husband told her. Why wouldn't she? He was 20 years her senior, was friends with President Ulysses S. Grant, and loved to stay in the best hotels in New York and Washington.

The well-invested legacy left by her father had made her rich and she didn't know the man who introduced her to everyone as his wife was a bigamist and adulterer.

While pregnant, her life was turned upside-down. She was arrested, put on trial, and denied by Roddey.

Here are the lurid details by Carlotta herself, with plenty of updated information about the players and the trials. Was she really as naive as she portrays herself in this book? Decide for yourself.

Written in the form seemingly like a diary

Written in the form seemingly like a diary, this book tells the story of a woman's grandmother who, during World War II, rescued downed allied airmen in France and helped them reach safety. It is also the story of how the author sought the details behind her grandmother's war time efforts, despite the fact that many French people did not want to remember or think about those dark days during the war. By way of reaching out to the American survivors who were helped by the grandmother, the author was able to piece together the story which she eventually wrote and published. In the process, the author developed, in her own right, a great appreciation of what her grandmother achieved in aiding the airmen, but also an appreciation of the efforts of the allies who came to the French in defeating Hitler's armies.

A Refreshing and Unique Historical Perspective. Recommended!

A wonderful story about the brave men and women that stood up to the Nazi occupation of France during WWII. These people risked everything to help downed allied airmen avoid capture and their stories need to be told.

I particularly enjoyed the unique connection of past and presentâfamily of today learning of the deeds of their parents and grandparents. It is too easy to forget the strengths of our roots and the accomplishments and sacrifices of our forbearers. This book works to bridge that gap and reminds us all to look to the past to understand more of ourselves today.

Well crafted, pleasant to read.

The story entertains and educates as it unfolds.

The exploits of French Resistance are from another era and like much of the history of the Second World War, they are receding into the mists of the past. Nevertheless, Marie Le Febre, like a detective, follows a trail of clues to learn the truth about her family's involvement in those perilous times. As she slowly discovers a part of her family's past she had never known, she makes their past come to life in the reader's eyes and shows how the extraordinary actions of ordinary people can truly make a difference in their lives and in the lives of others.

A very good account of what it was like to be living ...

A very good account of what it was like to be living in occupied territory during WWII. The author provides lots of context, both of the times during and after the war, to make the story more meaningful. Many French citizens risked everything to resist the German occupation and to aid downed allied airmen. The author takes the reader along on her own journey of discovery regarding her grandparents activities during WWII.

Title: Great Horned Owlets Rescue

Subtitle: Where There's a Will, There's a Way....

Author: Cheryl Aguiar

Narrator: Rebekah Amber Clark

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 55 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-23-17

Publisher: Cheryl Aguiar

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Cheryl Aguiar has a strong connection with wildlife and a great love for exploring nature. This is the story of how she gains the trust of one of Mother Nature's most magnificent and mysterious creatures, the great horned owl. These majestic birds known as raptors have a reputation of being extremely aggressive but show a different side when struck by tragedy. With some help from her husband, Cheryl's devotion, and determination to help this family of owls turns out to be one of the most gratifying decisions she has ever made. The strong-willed adult owl parents accept help from humans to keep their family safely together. Cheryl gives us an unprecedented look into the life of these wild birds while she closely documents the journey of these two adorable owlets as they grow and experience life in the wild. Through this experience, she witnesses the struggles of survival, the amazing bond of a family, and the gift of gratitude. What makes this story special is to see how animals and humans from two different walks of life can coexist and discover that we are not so different after all. By trusting each other, working together and showing each other respect, the family of owls allow her into their world; now, they have become a part of hers. Together, Cheryl, her family and these magnificent birds have proven ever more, the statement Where There's a Will, There's a Way.

"Narrator Rebekah Clark's down-to-earth style is ideal for this heartwarming story of a woman's compassion and dedication to two owlets whose nest tumbles into her yard. After some initial concern, the raptor parents allow Aguiar and her family to help their babies. Listeners will delight in getting to know Wisdom, the bigger, bolder bird, and Willow, the smaller, shyer baby, and their mama and papa. Following the owlets as they mature and hearing about Aguiar's continuing concern for their survival are moving aspects of this first-person account. Descriptions of the birds' behavior - including avian terms such as 'flop climbing' and 'hop flying' - are educational and fun. Clark's emotionally expressive voice and the story's moments of joy and sorrow make for a stellar listening experience." (AudioFile)

Great Horned Owlets Rescue

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

This is a lovely story, one that would be lovely to play aloud with little children, as you follow the rescue of a little family of owls. I liked that they ignored one piece of advice, "let nature takes it course" and found true help, but had to do it themselves. This a true story and the author even quotes a web link to see the pictures of these owls. There is a Disney like quality to it, with a friendly Racoon and another not so nice creature. Happy ending...

Would you listen to another book narrated by Rebekah Amber Clark?

yes

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Owl be nice

Members Reviews:

heartwarming listen

It's great to hear the author reading her own material. Well worth the listen. Pause, listen, reflect.

Sweet Book About an Unlikely Friendship

What made the experience of listening to Stay for Lunch the most enjoyable?

The relationship between the 2 characters is heartwarming. I immediately thought of my friend Jenny who is much older than me and very dear to me. I loved the story arc from meeting when Francina had a car accident and Anne stopped to help to forging a bond of deep friendship to Francina memory that Anne will hold forever dear.

Who was your favorite character and why?

There are 2 main characters: Anne and Francina. I don't have a "favorite." The book is told from Anne's point-of-view so you naturally learn more about Francina. The author, Anne Goodwin, brings Francina alive. I would have loved to have known her.

What didnt you like about Anne Goodwins performance?

I am an avid Audible listener. I never get into the car, even for a 5-minute drive, without turning on the audiobook I am currently listening to. Those of us who are constant listeners are probably more evaluative about narrators than casual listeners. I think the book would benefit from a more professional narrator.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I didn't have an "extreme" reaction but it certainly made me think about relationships I have and have had in the past. It particularly made me think of Jenny, a much older woman who I met while selling her house. We still email and talk and I cherish those times.

Any additional comments?

I would have loved it if this book was twice as long!

Title: Tattoo

Subtitle: Journeys on My Mind

Author: Tina Marie L. Lamb

Narrator: Tina Marie L. Lamb

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 13 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-03-17

Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing, LLC

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

Sometimes exploring places and meeting people outside your familiar world can reveal who you are or where you're from - perhaps even more clearly than looking in a mirror. We recommend it! Most likely, you will eventually harden to the retort, "Why are you going there?" After a lifetime of exploring on her own terms, author Tina Marie L. Lamb calls this delightful collection of stories her midlife crisis. And she's determined to pull you along with her.

Embark with Tina Marie from the peacefulness of an overnight in a South Carolina tree house (albeit with spiders and snakes) to being held captive on the Ganges River by a boatman haggling for extra Rupees before he'll navigate her ashore. Or, accompany Tina Marie as she wrestles a halibut off the Alaskan coast, wears bruises like medals after a stint on a dog sled team, and ventures into narrow cave tunnels where a single wave could scatter hundreds of bats. And just keep still as she tries to avoid buying a cow at a cattle auction. Perhaps in an unconscious effort to justify her life, Tina Marie shares this eclectic mix of stories that have become deeply imbedded in her. With dry wit and deep insight, you'll be alternately entertained and pleasantly jolted by her perceptions.

Tina Marie swears there is not much to tell about her. But these stories will likely tell you more about Tina Marie than she intended. She's clear about her intent: "How fortunate I am to live in a time and place where an ordinary person like me can act on her wanderlust! I'm not looking for someplace better. I'm just looking."

...the world is just

waiting for you to

come dance.

A hoot for tattoo

First I have to say that I received this book in exchange for an honest review. I love travel writing but a lot of the time it can sound...rehearsed. Tatoo: Journeys on my mind is just the opposite. I loved how the story jumped from place to place and that the author was reading her own work. It gave an authentic feel to the whole thing. On top of that she is witty, fun to listen to, and has a great cadence to her voice. I particularly liked the sections about India and Alaska. The only problems I had were that the transitioning sounds at the chapters were very loud and there was some background noise at time. Overall this was a highly enjoyable listen and I will definitely listen to it again.

What a Fun Mid-Life Crisis

Tatoo: Journeys on My Mind was a fun and enlightening listen. I enjoyed hearing about Tina Marie's journeys, and it was even narrated by her as well. If this was a mid-life crisis, it was an adventurous one. It would be a blast to travel and visit these awesome places during life's prime. I did cringe a little at the ear cleaning in Viet Nam.

I liked the music in between the chapters. It was folksy and pleasant. I also liked that she narrated her own book. She had a nice voice and she told her own story.

Title: The Brightness Around Him

Subtitle: A Spiritual Odyssey

Author: Jim Strahan

Narrator: George W Sarris

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 36 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-27-17

Publisher: James Strahan

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 1 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

Publisher's Summary:

During the 1950s, a seven-year-old boy from a church-going family in a Texas suburb has a night-time vision of Jesus. In the morning he tells his parents about it. They immediately call the minister, who visits that very day. Best keep it quiet, the grown-ups all agree. So Jim Strahan nurtured his experience, grew in his faith and Christian character, but always wondered, "Why me?" What was he supposed to do? Jim didn't go to seminary or start a TV ministry. He began a study of scripture and church history focused on the ultimate destinies of humankind - concluding that the predominant beliefs of the day were wrong. What he saw in the pages of scripture, and in the writings of many church fathers, convinced Jim that Jesus will at long last save every person who ever lived on earth. Part autobiography, part advocacy, The Brightness Around Him is a compelling tale of walking by faith, processing a transformative spiritual experience, and fitting in at churches that don't want to hear about your deepest-held biblical belief. In the end it's about how God's love will one day win it all.

Members Reviews:
