All the tips are simple, no brainer, common sense, but they’re surely not commonly practiced. These tips are things I’ve learned along the way of many failed conversations and arguments. We are taught to go to college and make money, and work, as equals with men, then our relationship doesn’t work, they don’t seem to hear us at home, or in the workforce. The is because we are different. The way women communicate with each other, friends or foe, isn’t the same way men communicate with their friends or enemies, so why would we think if we use our communication skills with men, it would translate? This is another dynamic. You may feel like the woman has to change in order to be heard, but a man would have to change to be heard with a woman who is struggling to communicate with a man, and both parties have to give a little, for this to work. These tips allow women to be heard in the way a man can receive her, and it will guide him to feel as ease around her and not clam up, or explode! I want healthy families and relationships for our people, and what more important than how to communicate with your husband, the father of your children? These tactics could also work in the workforce, tailored to the situation. I bet there has never been a better book written on this subject. Just try it out, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Truly, I’m not just saying that. I’m glad I chose this book over thousands of others. It rings true when you listen.

A must read!! I came across Unmasking Alice thinking it was a story about a young lady, her addiction and her journal. I started this audible book and was two chapters in when I mentioned it to my son. He said if you are going to listen to that book I suggest you first listen to Go Ask Alice. He also suggested(my son) a podcast of Eric Emerson’s interview on his book. It almost deterred me from listening to Go Ask Alice but my curiosity got the best of me. I went in knowing it was all lies(Go Ask Alice) from the little information I’d gathered so it was difficult to finish. Finally I finished it and was an apprehensive about going back to Unmasking Alice because at this point I felt I got what I needed from the podcast. I also like to finish what I start so back to Unmasking Alice I went and WOW!!! I’m so glad I did! Eric Emerson did a phenomenal job with his works on all of the stories that tied together so many lives! I couldn’t stop listening to his book. I am just amazed at how he brought everyone together from ground zero and never had me bored, uninterested or ready to shelf the book. I even listened to the epilogue! Also being the mom of a history major who is so passionate about his work as a librarian/archivist I so appreciated the tag at the end about the respect and appreciation for those who work in the libraries and as archivists that made it possible for Eric Emerson to write and complete his book. I highly recommend this book!!

Audible is my best friend. Yes, that’s cheesy, but I’m Best Friend! I listen to my Audible books all day long while I’m on the job. I’m an interior painter and can just zone out and do my work while disappearing into another world, and other life, or an exciting fantasy. My days go by so quickly! The selection is incredible. The sales are really great especially around the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales. I have hundreds and hundreds of books I’ve listened to and still hundreds more to come! Best Friend! I listen to my Audible books all day long while I’m on the job. I’m an interior painter and can just zone out and do my work while disappearing into another world, and other life, or an exciting fantasy. My days go by so quickly! The selection is incredible. The sales are really great especially around the Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales. I have hundreds and hundreds of books I’ve listened to and still hundreds more to come! with Audible more than any other being, with the exception of my family. My job is solo where we can listen to podcasts or music all day, so I choose to listen to books. If there was an Escapism badge on this like Kindle, I’d have it my awards collection for sure. The talent both in authors as well as narrators is incredible. The selection is perfect! Soooooo happy with this app!

The gist: the newer right hand More Options Menu conflicts with playback and needs to be thought through for ease of function (and to prevent loyal customers from experiencing immense frustration). I have enjoyed Audible for many years now, listening to several books each month and a library of nearly 400 titles. Most everything has been great (though I’ve found headaches with the bookmark/note taking and so do all of that outside the app), but one of the more recent updates changed the way customers interact with books in the library. You used to swipe left to select “remove from device,” which was a very conscious effort action. Now, however, there are three dots on the right side that one must hit to bring up a short menu of options to then select “remove from device.” My gripe with this is that 98% of the time, when a book is completed and I want to remove it to then begin a new title, I go to hit the dots and instead the dang book I just finished starts to play again. Similarly, I recently purchased several titles that all automatically downloaded to my device, and here again each time I tried to three-dot-tap to remove them for a later listening time, each one started playing. It’s so dang maddening. And I hate that my books are now all out of listening order. Please, PLEASE do something about this. The design is so flawed.

Had my new iPhone 15 pro max less then a month. Go to download my catalog of titles only to find out anything over a GB won’t work. It only streams, as I’ve tried twice since the most recent updates. I called and logged the issue with Audible, and told to download in parts. I love the bigger books all in one file. It was fine on my old iPhone 11 Pro Max. I have reflex sympathetic dystrophy, I can no longer hold books or write. So using Audible is so important to me when it comes to the Bible. Use daily and take notes through the app. The app even encourages customers to download all in one file. That’s great, but it doesn’t work anymore for books larger then GB. If anyone like me you have larger libraries, this means can’t even use higher quality downloads on many books. But it’s getting ridiculous the way Audible has gotten lazy. It happens every other year with iOS update and app updates. It either wipes out all of your downloads, or it breaks the app to be able to download. I’ve been at the premium level since 2012, I can’t count the times I’ve bought three extra credits a month. When they had their reading challenges last year, had the amount listened to in a week. I love this app, but I need it to work at the level it has for so many years before. Need this to be addressed and fixed. I can call again and be told sorry, and given extra credits. I don’t want to call anymore if nothing is going to be done to correct the issue.

Once upon a time I loved this app, I work a third shift job so listening to books was a great way to pass the time and I always had something fun to listen to. A big part of paying 16 dollars a month is to receive a credit to purchase any book in their library which is nice as some of the things I listen to is odd ball stuff that isn’t always free. All this sounds great right? Well it is until Apple takes your 16 bucks , it updates your account that it has been renewed but no credit. Ok this has happened more than once. I have over 600 hours of playtime versus my metrics and have had it happen 3 times. Now I did what anyone would do, you contact customer service and explain the situation and they give you the credit no problem right? RIGHT? Wrong , even though they can clearly see my renew date was updated and that I did not receive the credit as has happened in the past, nope…. Look I’m not asking for any special treatment, I just want the bill of goods that I paid for and that to date has not be resolved and it is disappointing to say the least that a company’s customer service is not bright enough to look at your account which I’m sure has more deltails than I have as far as metrics in my end to conclude that I am not trying to “get one over” on you . All I wanted it the credit which I pay for to be honored. I guess that was too much to ask.Buyer beware is all I am saying here because it has happened multiple times to me

Love this app so much. Had it for years and does not disappoint. Thank you for being here, existing and being in my life. Such a great idea and concept. Sorry it took me so long to rate this amazing app! Get it, you won’t regret it, so many wonderful title and books and not over priced!Update: This is still a great app but it needs to be said that the home tab is waaay too much noise visually speaking. Way too many suggestions and advertised books for an app. It’s not a clean look and honestly it’s ugly. The app needs a more sleek minimalist feel for ease of use. I literally get anxiety seeing the homepage with all the extra books recommendations, catalogues and so forth. When I use the app I just want to get to the point not be defaulted to a crazy looking page foot of book images. Please higher someone to update your app comestically. With the IOS update people are discovering less is more with widgets and less apps. Try to use that same concept, I want to see recommendations make it the last tab not the first. Have the first tab be the library and instead of a line chart of books maybe give the option of line display or chart display, just something more sleek please.Update 03 May 2021: The app skips the audio for some reason and when the screen goes dark it stops playing. Please fix this. This is pretty frustrating and my settings don’t have anything that causes this to happen.

I’ve purchased both of Watter’s audio books. I buy audio books so I can hear the author say the words and the inflections and tone of the words give me more about the book than the words. I will NEVER purchase another book by Watter’s that he doesn’t narrate. I don’t think he has any idea the sales you’re going losing by not narrating it yourself. It’s also very lazy. If you’re not proud enough of the book to bother to narrate it why should I bother. Taking the lazy way shows me you’re not worthy of watching you’re show on Fox or the five when you on. Whatever reason you’ve created to not narrate you own book the truth is you’re just lazy and will only give 90% to whatever you’re doing. Not a good legacy to leave. Unfortunately you have to write another book and narrate it to get me back. I realize I just one person but what you don’t know the hundreds of thousands of people that feel the I do. Good by for a very long time and likely forever, I doubt you’ll ever change only giving 90%. Your biggest problem is you don’t know what you don’t know, you should find out, that extra 10% is where you find the real answers. Last note, this is first review I’ve ever written and I have well over 1000 Audiobooks in my library and have finished everyone.

Very well written, and the audio was depicted beautifully. The clarity of the narration truly brought the text to life, allowing the audience to fully immerse themselves in the story being told. Each word flowed smoothly, painting vivid images in the minds of listeners as they engaged with the content. The skillful pacing in the audio allowed for a perfect balance between dramatic emphasis and subtlety, ensuring that the key moments resonated powerfully. Every inflection carried meaning, and the tone was carefully modulated to match the emotions embedded in the narrative, enhancing the overall experience. Listeners were not merely recipients of information; they became participants in a captivating journey. The way the narrator effectively conveyed varying emotions—from joy and excitement to sadness and contemplation—created a dynamic range that kept the audience captivated throughout. The incorporation of ambient sounds further enriched the storytelling, creating an immersive audio environment that transported listeners right into the scene. Moreover, the attention to detail in audio quality was commendable. The crispness of the voice combined with an appropriate background setting ensured that nothing detracted from the message being delivered. No distracting noises interrupted the flow, allowing for an uninterrupted experience that maintained the listener's attentionDascha Polanco is amazing

I have been an audible subscriber for many many years and have been happily using the app for as long as it has been around. The most recent update though has turned the audible app into something I don't want to use anymore. 1. For some reason the library completely reordered itself and no longer sorts by date added or most recent 1.a. this includes whatever book I'm listening to which is no longer at the top of the list 2. The app has been crashing CONSTANTLY unless the app is open and the screen is kept from going into power saving mode. 2.a. the app frequently just won't open at all and requires numerous attempts to open 3. About 90% of the time when I can get the app to open and I can get a book to open, there is no information available on the book or the information given goes with a different book. It may or may not open to the last location I was listening too. None of my created bookmarks are available nor can I create new bookmarks. 4. In addition to the library being randomly sorted, it is no longer searchable when in airplane mode. This added extreme frustration when trying to amuse myself while midair and unable to connect to WiFi. 5. The power drain has become enormous and my phone becomes dangerously hot if I try to charge it while using the app. Please fix this issues as soon as possible as the app is unusable in its current form.
