Historia
In 2022, Lisa Marie Presley asked her daughter to help finally finish her long-gestating memoir. A month later, Lisa Marie was dead, and the world would never know her story in her own words, never know the passionate, joyful, caring, and complicated woman that Riley loved and now grieved. Riley got the tapes that her mother had recorded for the book, lay in her bed, and listened as Lisa Marie told story after story about smashing golf carts together in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about being upstairs, just the two of them.

A poignant Story
Revisado: 10-28-24
I had thought I had known everything there was to know about Lisa Marie and Elvis and this memoir is an eye opener. Hearing the story through the voices of Riley , Julia Roberts and hearing Lisa Marie's own voice in some of the audio clips were powerful. There is a letter that Riley wrote to Lisa that was read at Lisa's funeral by Riley's father Danny that summed up their relationship. After listening to her letter I called my own mother and tried to have a conversation with her about our relationship. If you think you know all there is to know listening to this memoir will leave you sad but hopeful. It is helping me to heal the relationship I have with my own Mom.

Historia
Ali Morris is a professional organizer whose own life is a mess. Her mom died two years ago, then her husband left, and she hasn’t worn pants with a zipper in longer than she cares to remember. No one is more surprised than Ali when the first time she takes off her wedding ring and puts on pants with hardware—overalls count, right?—she meets someone. Or rather, her dog claims a man for her, in the same way he claimed his favorite of her three children: by peeing on him. Ethan smiles at Ali like her pants are just right—like he likes what he sees.

Historia
Henry Winkler, launched into prominence as “The Fonz” in the beloved Happy Days, has transcended the role that made him who he is. Brilliant, funny, and widely regarded as the nicest man in Hollywood (though he would be the first to tell you that it’s simply not the case, he’s really just grateful to be here), Henry shares in this achingly vulnerable memoir the disheartening truth of his childhood, the difficulties of a life with severe dyslexia, the pressures of a role that takes on a life of its own, and the path forward once your wildest dream seems behind you.

An Inspiration
Revisado: 04-26-24
I grew up in the 1960's and 1970's being passed up from grade to grade not knowing I had a learning disability . I had trouble reading the printed word in books and not until I found out that Henry has dyslexia as well did I start to feel that someone out there knew how I was feeling. The Fonz was someone I grew up watching, There is so much more to Henry than Arthur Fonzerelli and Henry takes you on a journey that keeps you listening and not wanting to stop . Listening to Henry narrate his life story and his wife Stacey being a part of the Audible book as well kept me glued to the book. I listen to almost everything on Audible and I am recommending this book whole heartedly and thank you Henry for being the inspiration for me now that I didn't have growing up.

Historia
Raine Hart is used to the challenges of living with ADHD. It’s why she ditched her life in Boston to busk around Europe as a traveling musician. No boss. No schedule. No one to disappoint but herself. But when a careless mistake in Ireland leaves her unable to perform, she sees no other option but to give up her nomadic life. Since inheriting the Local, Jack Dunne has wanted to make the pub his own. But the baggage of running a family business and the intrusive thoughts that stem from his OCD make changing things a challenge.

Magnificence
Revisado: 01-05-24
As soon as Last Call at the Local was released , January 2, 2024 I purchased the book and finished listening in two days. I couldn't stop listening and would listen everywhere. The car and at home. I love the talent of the narrators Karissa Vacker and Gary Furlong who make Sarah's characters come to life. Sarah's writing is brilliantly entertaining and as I listened I wound up finding myself routing for the characters . One needs to listen very closely at times and the story kept me on the edge of my seat. I have listened to Sarah's other two books and they are all unique. Thank you Sarah , Karissa and Gary for the entertainment.

Historia
Gary John Bishop has helped millions of people break free of self-sabotaging behaviors. Yet we all seem to feel like we’re failing at this thing called parenting. Common wisdom isn’t working—our kids are struggling. Gary argues we don’t need more tips, tricks, and techniques, we need an overhaul of who we are. We’re never going to measure up to the “perfect parent” model we’ve built up in our heads—a Frankenstein version of mom and dad cobbled together from our childhoods, our parents, cultural ideals, social media, and everything in between.

A Must Read
Revisado: 10-04-23
I discovered Gary John Bishop in 2020. He tells it like it is and this book Grow Up is for anyone whether you are a parent or not. I love hearing Gary's voice and his message is always spot on. I am a parent of a 27 year old and thought I had blown it as a parent. Gary's message is reassuring and gives you something to think about. I will listen to this book again and green something different each time I listen.Thank you Gary for giving me the tools to to support my daughters move to her own apartment within the next year. I am more ready having listened to your book.

Historia
"I’m James Taylor and I’m a professional autobiographer", says the celebrated folk singer at the start of this tender audio memoir. Through decades of music by one of the best-selling musicians of all time, who created classics like "Fire and Rain" and "Carolina in My Mind", James Taylor has doled out his history in the poetry of his work. Taylor says his early life is, "the source of many of my songs", and Break Shot is a tour of his first 21 years in rich, new detail.

I have seen James Taylor perform live a couple of times at Jones Beach in NY and enjoyed his book very much. I loved the guitar playing sprinkled throughout the book. Learning about how the songs came to be created were especially helpful in understanding the background. Grateful to the hospitals and centers that helped James along the way. I hope to see James perform live again soon.

Cantor Judith Steel was born in Berlin at the beginning of WWII. Her family was Jewish, and they escaped aboard the ship St. Louis in 1939 when she was an infant, only to be turned away by Cuba and the US. The ship was returned to Europe. Her family disembarked in Belgium and was interred in Camp Gurs. Her father was able to sneak her out to a French Catholic family, who hid her during the war.

I enjoyed listening to Alyson read her mothers memoir. Her story is one of bravery and courage and the people that hid her valiant and deserve the awards the received. I look forward to seeing Judith in a zoom service this Friday. I am grateful that they are survivors of the holocaust to tell their stories

Thanks for the Memories
Revisado: 10-10-22
I grew up watching Mr. Rogers on PBS and loved the person who portrayed Officer Clemmons. I purchased Francois Clemmons book on audible and loved hearing his memories in his own voice. The way in which he talks about his childhood, his journey to college and his Operatic career all were something that impressed me. He came to my home town and sang in a local church. We have friends in common too. I wished I had know this at the time, as I would have definitely gone to see him. I highly recommend this memoir. Francois overcame so much in his life to get to where he is today.
Thank you Francois for being you and staying true to yourself.
