I listened to this book as an unabridged audio read by Kathleen Wilhoite. Her narration made the book for me and I highly recommend reading it this way, if you can. Bernadette Day was once an award winning, up and coming architect but an event happened that pretty much destroyed her and now she’s ...
I had seen several comments from various readers/blogs stating that Where'd You Go, Bernadette was laugh-out-loud funny. I was in the mood for a humorous book, and I was hoping it would live up to the hype. Thankfully, I did find this book very entertaining. I can see where the type of humor in th...
Semple made a splash with her previous novel, but does this book live up to that? Find out what I think in my review, here (2.5 stars). https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/09/30/different-yes-but/
For whatever reason, when I talked about this book last time, it had been months after I read it, and I could've done better. I'm not sure that I'll fix that now, but you never know . . . First thing you've got to know about this book is that it's funny. Flat out funny. Some of it may not come acr...
The narrator could be amusing, but the story itself was pretty meh. Maybe I would have liked it more if I hadn't been listening to it, but the story just seemed to drag on. I may count it as "A book with a terrible cover" for the Summer Book Bingo, though, because the actual cover of my library o...
I should be rating this one higher than I am; at least 4.5 stars. I picked it up with the intention of just reading a page or two and suddenly two hours passed. I couldn't stop reading it. But when I finished I just didn't feel that 4.5 star feeling. We can blame it on a woeful job on the part ...
Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she's a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she's a disgrace; to design mavens, she's a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom. Then Bernadette disappe...
I'm hitting another block when trying to talk about the last few books I've read, because here's another batch of very overdue takes on some good books (and one not). --- The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion This was charming, witty, and had plenty of heart -- even without the romance, which just ...
I can't do any better than the reviews already here, so let's just say that I am happier, and I feel smarter than when I started this book. I listened to the audio version and the person who performs this book does a spectacular job! This book is just so good that all I want to do is gush.
"The truth is complicated. There's no way one person can ever know everything about another person." I think you either have to be odd or enjoy reading about an odd person to really like this book. I am a bit odd myself so I ended up liking this overall. The further along you read in this book the ...
