The narrator also does decent male voices - I just finished two separate books with horrible male voices by a female narrator so this is quite a relief. And the narrator does a great job interpretting and relaying Juliet's (protagonist) internal thought process and emotions. Yes, her voice is higher pitched, but after a moment or so, it's not at all annoying. ![]() I think the sample doesn't do Kate Simses justice. ![]() ![]() The narrator's voice is not whiney at all. WOW! What was I waiting for? Shatter Me is exciting and such a good listen - probably more so for females as far as following the main character's erratic thought process. Finally, I downloaded the book, being too lazy to research a new book and settling on just choosing from my wish list. I just couldn't get past the sample offered. So then I put it in my "wish list" category and it sat there for months. Then I kept finding new authors I enjoyed, and when I would read their blogs, many of them raved about Shatter Me. But when I tried the sample on, I thought the narrator's voice sounded whiney and I couldn't get past the "scratch out" noise. In fact, I first became interested in the story when I read a review from an author I admire who loved Shatter Me. I avoided purchasing Shatter Me for months. ![]() ![]() Efficient respiratory gas exchange, coupled to downstream convective and diffusive resistances, comprise the “oxygen cascade”-step-down of PO 2 that balances supply against toxicity.

Then it became a process of trying to develop a story of how to go deeper and deeper and darkly into that idea. It was perfect, you hear that and you know he’s coming. ![]() I knew that was the Joker, I could hear it in my head. Then that led me to this idea that someone might ask him, “Well why don’t you just kill all of them? That would make it easy.” and that’s the Joker right there. I came to this realization that Batman has this family and he probably thinks that same thing once in a while like, I wish I could stop worrying about them. So I came up with the idea for this story when we were about to have our second kid and I just kept finding myself wishing that I could stop worrying about the first kid once in a while and wondering how I was going to do this again. Assume that if you make it personal, then that’s how you make it original. Scott Snyder: For me personally, the only way to write these iconic characters when there’s 75 years of great stories that have already been written is to make these stories personal. How do you go about tackling such an icon in not only the Joker?

The most significant point, as with homosexuality, is one of identity. He makes three claims (1) activists continually expand their demands, (2) they are closed off to contrary evidence, and (3) they incline towards coercion to enforce their creed. Īnderson’s most frightening chapter is where he surveys what activists themselves say. Advocates seek to silence all opposition, even from respected medical experts who advocate treatment for transgender individuals. He explains that trans culture is being increasingly normalized in culture, in laws and executive orders, and in the medical field. ![]() He does not agree with the transgender ideology, and writes a persuasive and winsome case for pushing back against this new secular orthodoxy.
