The birth of National Public Radio. Some laugh-out-loud stories (testing the claim that Wintergreen Life Saves give off sparks when you chew it in the dark) and heartbreaking real-time events (The earthquake in China). Well worth the listen.

We liked this book! It was informative, colorful, and fun to read.

An absolutely stunning and heart wrenching look into the Vietnam War.

A good Hoffman tale, complicated characters and intertwining relationships alongside a view of New York City we don’t remember once existed: farms, early Coney Island, tenements, the struggle for labor laws against rising capitalism. A few technical complaints toward the end (a dog can’t use a breathing hose under water, for example) but overall, an engaging story.

Phenomenal. I thoroughly enjoyed her style of writing and the suspense/anticipation that came with it. I appreciated how it was different than the show!

This is a great book with a surprise twist at the end.

As always entertaining, but a small error. The time difference between Pickaxe and Paris, France is more than 5 hours.

I enjoyed this book. It was quirky and though I knew the twist early on, it was enjoyable and I will be reading the next!

I finished this in one day. Phenomenal book. I enjoyed this one more than the first.
