It is Nick and Amy Dunne's fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick's clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn't doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media - as well as Amy's fiercely doting parents - the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he's definitely bitter - but is he really a killer?
Teddy says: "Demented, twisted, sick and I loved it!"
"Good listen for mystery listeners"

Would you consider the audio edition of Gone Girl to be better than the print version?

Have not read the print version. I love the audio version because it puts a voice to the charactors.

What did you like best about this story?

It has twists and you can't quite figure out what will happen next.

What does Julia Whelan and Kirby Heyborne bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Both were great in adding the accent on the story.

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

No laughing or crying just good listening

Mercy Thompson's life is not exactly normal. Her next-door neighbor is a werewolf. Her former boss is a gremlin. And she's fixing a VW bus for a vampire. But then, Mercy isn't exactly normal herself.

What did you love best about Moon Called?

The characters they were so believable to me. Just enough of fiction to make you think yeah that would be what they are like.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Moon Called?

When that were all in the room with the "bad wolves" downstairs.

Which character – as performed by Lorelei King – was your favorite?

I loved Mercy but Jesse was a close second. Of course the male wolves all sounded yummy.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes but it was great to be able to listen at different driving times too.

Any additional comments?

I will be reading (listening) to this whole series. I am hooked now!

A smashing, award-winning debut novel that introduces Charley Davidson: part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper Charley sees dead people. That’s right, she sees dead people. And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light.” But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e. murder), sometimes they want Charley to bring the bad guys to justice.

I can hear everyone and relate.

When Colton Burpo made it through an emergency appendectomy, his family was overjoyed at his miraculous survival. What they weren’t expecting, though, was the story that emerged in the months that followed—a story as beautiful as it was extraordinary, detailing their little boy’s trip to heaven and back.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Uneventful

Would you listen to another book narrated by Dean Gallagher?

Probably not

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Heaven is what you want it to be

Any additional comments?

Way to much input by the parents on bible quotes etc. Being a child of a pastor had to have imbedded most of what he saw in heaven. Not what I thought it would be.
