The Overstory unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fable that range from antebellum New York to the late 20th-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. An air force loadmaster in the Vietnam War is shot out of the sky, then saved by falling into a banyan. An artist inherits 100 years of photographic portraits, all of the same doomed American chestnut. A hard-partying undergraduate in the late 1980s electrocutes herself, dies, and is sent back into life by creatures of air and light.

This was an interesting concept in the way that the book was put together, and the author was a master at setting a scene, I felt like I was reading poetry sometimes, but I had a hard time remembering who was who after I had read their chapters.

Man narration was the best one. I have heard on Audible yet. The story had some interesting sections, but the last half had way too much detail about trading and I fell asleep during some chapters and woke up and whether it was 10 minutes or a half an hour later it’s still sounded the same.

I really preferred this book to the last in the series because it wasn’t as gruesome. I found The Birdcage Murders to be just too troubling. I look forward to the next one.

Herriot continues the rich and rewarding day-to-day life of a small-town veterinarian, and we journey with him across the dales, meeting a whole new cast of unforgettable characters - humans, dogs, horses, lambs, parakeets - all of them drawn with the same infinite fascination, affection and insight that made James Herriot one of the most beloved authors of our time. And all the stories are warmly, evocatively told by the world-renowned "voice" of Dr. Herriot: Christopher Timothy.

I love the narrator and the story 
Reviewed: 02-27-24
The only thing that I don’t like about this book is the way the music interrupts the stories. When it starts, it feels like the chapter should be over, but it’s right in the middle of a story and then it starts again and the story continues. It just seems jarring and unnecessary. It would be better to have the music in between each chapter. But this series is so phenomenal! I read it 45 years ago and saw the original. PBS show with the same narrator as the main character and I still love it

It’s one of the few mysteries where I guessed the murderer, but there were enough twists that I wasn’t sure.

I am always very interested in the holocaust, and I’ve read a lot of books, both fiction and nonfiction on the subject. This was the poorest written book that I have read. It was as though the author had written it without an outline or notes or anything, because he just kept saying the same things over and over again.

Slow and boring
Reviewed: 05-28-22
I have read all of the other Gabriel Alon novels up till this one. I have enjoyed most of them tremendously and learned a lot. This one was almost entirely narration in the third person and it has no dynamic tension or action or anything of interest. I found it extremely difficult to pay attention to the best part was the last paragraph. I hope the ones coming up are better than this one was because the writer is incredibly gifted

Clean Harlequinesque mystery

I read the entire merciful series by this author and enjoyed it but this feels like just a rehash of the style and type of mystery and romance, including the style of reading. There’s nothing wrong with it, it just seems a little simplistic

In his wickedly brilliant first novel, Debut Dagger Award winner Alan Bradley introduces one of the most singular and engaging heroines in recent fiction: Eleven-year-old Flavia de Luce, an aspiring chemist with a passion for poison. It is the summer of 1950 - and a series of inexplicable events has struck Buckshaw, the decaying English mansion that Flavia’s family calls home. A dead bird is found on the doorstep, a postage stamp bizarrely pinned to its beak. Hours later, Flavia finds a man lying in the cucumber patch and watches him as he takes his dying breath.
