For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand.

Saccharine

This is very much a dime store novel. The writing is often flat and burdened by heavy-handed nature metaphors.
Similarly, the narration is a bit weird as the southern accents are not believable. My partner laughed out loud hearing the voices…

Boring, long-winded, self-serving
Reviewed: 11-06-19
This book is Campbell describing without much justification his direct interpretation of all of human mythology. However, it is still rooted in a basis of catholicism which leads to selective interpretation, and frankly, a rosy 1950s male idealism about gender roles, heterosexual relationships (ignoring many ancient traditions that are inclusive of multi gender, multi orientation). Uninspired and tired.

The thyroid is the new hot topic in health. Across age groups, from baby boomers (and their parents) to millennials, more and more people - women especially - are hearing that their thyroids are to blame for their fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, memory issues, aches and pains, insomnia, hair loss, hot flashes, sensitivity to cold, and more. Everyone wants to know how to free themselves from the thyroid trap. As the thyroid has gotten more and more attention, though, these symptoms haven’t gone away - people aren’t healing.

This is quack science lifted from common remedies...wish the amazon interface wasn’t so cluttered so I found that in the reviews before I spent my audible credit :(((
With chronic conditions it is really frustrating to find adequate diagnosis and care, and the author appeals to that need, but unfortunately with no grounding to his assertions.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 18,266
In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to 'bad people'" (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent meaningful cross-racial dialogue.

Great content, robotic reader voice
Reviewed: 10-20-18
I recommend doing this one as a regular book—the narrator sounds like a robot, which makes it hard to hear. Though I can imagine the concept of white fragility might be so triggering for some people that they chose a robotic person to narrate. It’s a loss, because it makes it much harder to engage and retain the content.
