Story
Where are you from? That’s the question presented at the beginning of each episode of Origins, Audible’s new music storytelling series, featuring eight groundbreaking artists. This series works in showing the common denominator shared between them: a burning desire—truly, a need—to create and express oneself, and features Billie Eilish, Camilo, Doja Cat, Flying Lotus, King Princess, Koffee, Mickey Guyton, and Tobe Nwigwe.

A worthy listen, but…
Reviewed: 11-20-22
A good introduction to this young woman, if the listener has never been exposed to her music or careers; however, this conversation with seems chaotic and disjointed, like loose random thoughts in her head, bouncing around. This creates a blurred image of who she is. Was this the intention? The songs are the best part and I would have rather had a Words + Music episode with Billie.

Story
Important note: This is a summary of The Obesity Code by Jason Fung and is not the original book. In his important book, Dr. Fung takes aim at age-old myths about weight control and the "perfect diet". The result? An adaptable, sustainable plan where no foods are off-limits and no food groups are excluded while addressing larger underlying issues related to hormones, appetite, insulin resistance, and fat storage. This audiobook is not meant to replace the original book but to serve as a companion to it.

Shakespearean melodrama at its finest. The author has created a group of characters to care about, even though they may not deserve!

Story
Korede is bitter. How could she not be? Her sister, Ayoola, is many things: the favorite child, the beautiful one, possibly sociopathic. And now Ayoola’s third boyfriend in a row is dead. Korede’s practicality is the sisters’ saving grace. She knows the best solutions for cleaning blood, the trunk of her car is big enough for a body, and she keeps Ayoola from posting pictures of her dinner to Instagram when she should be mourning her “missing” boyfriend. Not that she gets any credit. Korede has long been in love with a kind, handsome doctor at the hospital where she works.

Story
When you listen to this audiobook, you will make many assumptions. You will assume you are listening to a story about a jealous ex-wife. You will assume she is obsessed with her replacement - a beautiful, younger woman who is about to marry the man they both love. You will assume you know the anatomy of this tangled love triangle. Assume nothing. Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.

Ms. Martinez, in this book, brings us into her living room and shares her life. I could easily have imagined myself enjoying a nice glass of wine with her, that's how enjoyable it was to listen to MY VOICE. Also, having been in my 20's during the nineties, I got the experience of reliving landmark events in the stories she shared. A MUST listen for anyone who maybe wishes to work in Media. Also, great inspiration and life stories.

The MIND of the Modern Woman
Reviewed: 02-09-18
As a man it was enlightening to truly enter the mind of a modern, contemporary woman and to listen to her share things and thoughts that, I would guess many woman choose not to share for fear of being shamed or losing respect for others. Don't get wrong, Ms Dorfman's thoughts are not profound, however they do give a picture into the mind of a woman.

Mel is personable, engaging, tough, and compassionate: she presents herself as that wise friend who not only loves you enough to tell you the truth about what is necessary for change and transformation but also through "the 5 second rule," share with you, HOW to take the steps necessary.for change and transformation.So often, self help books share abstract principles to grow as a person yet not how to take action. Mel gives direct, clear coaching as to how to use the method she has discovered. Her reading of her book was also very enjoyable and lively which made the listen FUN! Its truly like your having a real conversation with her.
