Publisher's summary

Carl Weber is a New York Times best-selling author who’s made a name for himself with wildly entertaining works marked by his trademark wit and storytelling panache. In The Choir Director, Bishop T.K. Wilson is banking on dynamic new choir director Anthony Mackie to reverse the failing congregation’s fortunes. But while Anthony’s got more than enough chops to raise a heavenly chorus, he’s also got a weakness for the ladies that could make the Devil himself stand up and take notice.

Mega Church intrigue

This was laugh out loud ,heart breaking and serious .I was at the edge of my listening seat
Loved the narration style of several voices made this book come alive

A Darned Good Yarn

If you could sum up The Choir Director in three words, what would they be?

Fast, Funny, Naughty

What did you like best about this story?

The first thing one hears when listning to this book is something about it being written for an African American audience, and I'm as white as they come. The first thing I learned as I went forward was that this book is for everyone, and it offered me a glimpse into African American life in America without resorting to over-blown stereotypes.Add to that the fact that this book is really well written, and the storyline is tight, and you have all the ingredients for a darned good yarn, be you black, white, or blue!

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

The narrator did a great job of differentiating each character with a voice all their own. I've no idea how people can keep track of such things when narrating, but this guy was superb.

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

Life in America

Excellent

One of the best and surprising books I’ve listened to in a long time! Well done.

Great story line!

This was a wonderful audiobook. I couldn’t stop listening. It was my first time listening to an audiobook. If audiobooks weren’t so expensive, I’d listen to more.

interesting story

What made the experience of listening to The Choir Director the most enjoyable?

I thought it was an interesting storyline with relatable characters.

What did you like best about this story?

The twists and turns

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

I loved the narrater's, they really made the story come to life.

If you could take any character from The Choir Director out to dinner, who would it be and why?

Well Aaron of course.

Any additional comments?

i agree with some of the other reviewers that true men and women of God would not likely behave this way, especially a first lady. However we all know church people be the shadiest ones sometimes so I don't think the story is that far fetched. It 's a good listen no more no less.

SURPRISE!!!!!!!

What did you like best about The Choir Director? What did you like least?

What I like most was how there was such a tangle of situations going on w/in the story that it always kept the reader on their toes. What I like least about it was that sometimes Symone was predictable.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Choir Director?

When Symone went to the meeting to cause havoc for Tia by bringing such disturbing news to the meeting.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

I loved how each narrator was able to show so much difference in some of the various characters they had to portray along w/ their main character. What I liked least about the perfumes was that sometimes if seemed as if the narrators were reading their rolls instead of giving performances.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes

This is a great book!

I enjoyed this book. It was very entertaining. I will get the next book in this series.

Once again!

Absolutely amazing so many twist and turns I felt like I was in a roller coaster! Great Read! The readers we great as well.

Disappointed...

The story could have been great but once again, Carl Weber's unfortunate negative view of people (especially women) hindered his character development and made too many things not make sense. Also, not sure why this is categorized as Christian Literature. The book is about church folk but is def not a "Christian" book <insert eye roll> lol.

Choir Director

This book was so VERY entertaining. I was kind of hoping Simone went to jail but at least she was punished
