Story
If you caught a glimpse of heaven, would you choose to comeback to life?
Investigative journalist Judy Bachrach has collected accounts of those who died and then returned to life with lucid, vivid memories of what occurred while they were dead, and the conclusions are astonishing. Clinical death - the moment when the heart stops beating and brain stem activity ceases - is not necessarily the end of consciousness, as a number of doctors are now beginning to concede.

A Meaningful Contribution to a Study Still in Its Infancy
Reviewed: 05-06-23
I read this book because I’m interested in how people who’ve had near-death experiences (NDE) integrate their experiences into their everyday lives. For me, what’s most compelling about NDEs is how they change lives. Almost all books on this subject focus on the “specialness” of these experiences and, while this book does include many NDE accounts, I appreciated Bachrach’s coining the term ‘death journey” instead of using NDE, which broadens the meaning beyond the individuals who have had them. I also value how her views about this subject evolved over the course of her writing this book and how her own fears about death diminished as a result. The narrator’s intonations and pronunciations are a little off sometimes but, overall, she did her best to voice the author’s story and an enjoyable audio book.

Story
Eleanor met Aaron when she was just a teenager, and he was working at a local record store - older, experienced, and irresistibly charming. Escaping the clichés of fleeting young love, their summer romance bloomed into a relationship that survived college and culminated in a marriage and two children. From the outside looking in, their life had all the trappings of what most would consider a success story. But, as in any marriage, things weren’t always as they seemed.

A Story that Looks Hard at the Meaning of ‘For Better or For Worse’
Reviewed: 12-17-21
An honest, heartfelt memoir about trying to live up to the expectations all marriages hold, and the inevitable disappointments that come when we, and the one we love, repeatedly fall short. Henderson bravely explores the choices she’s made as the wife of a gifted man whose prospects dim as he begins suffering physical and mental breakdowns, for which there’s limited help and many dissatisfying answers. Few stories examine the struggles women face who try to support husbands haunted by sexual trauma and a mysterious illness.

Story
When an infected bolt of cloth carries plague from London to an isolated village, a housemaid named Anna Frith emerges as an unlikely heroine and healer. Through Anna's eyes we follow the story of the fateful year of 1666, as she and her fellow villagers confront the spread of disease and superstition. As death reaches into every household and villagers turn from prayers to murderous witch-hunting, Anna must find the strength to confront the disintegration of her community and the lure of illicit love.

Great Story- Awful Narrator

A Remarkable Voice
Reviewed: 07-15-20
I thought Brooks’ voice was perfect for Anna’s character given that Anna must grow through, and with, so much grief and self-doubt. She conveyed a memorable presence, one I didn’t want to walk away from.
