First Family Audiobook

" Probably the best of the King/ Maxwell series, but that's not saying a lot. Camel Club series is better. This series always seems to get bogged down with implausability and sappiness. First half is solid, however. "

" I liked this book and the plot line but I listened to it on tape (for when I'm exercising) and I hated the narrator's voice for the women. It came off childish and whining for every one of them. "

" Interesting mystery - kept my interest - a President's niece is kidnapped - what is the real story? "

" Loved it ! I have become a David Baldacci fan for life !! "

" A good read, but a bit predictable and far fetched at points. Enjoyable but not the best. I had heard rave reviews and it didn't quite seem to match up. "

" What a twisted tale; I loved it. Baldacci continues the saga of Michelle Maxwell and Sean King and actually gives them a life before the Secret Service, so this book has some character development that plays into the next book in the series, The Sixth Man. There really is no way for me to describe the action and intrigue in First Family without giving away clues to the ending so please let me just say to buckle up and enjoy the ride! "

" A real page turner. Just so happened the book, re: a US President, who was a womanizer before becoming president seems to corespond to the present day "political affairs". "

" Really enjoyed this book. Kept my interest the entire time, and I had a hard time putting it down. It took a month to read, but only because my life got busy, not because the book wasn't interesting. "

" Suspenseful audio book. "

" REALLY REALLY GOOD! I love these characters. "

" This book got better towards the end, but overall I thought it was too slow. "

" I enjoy all of his books. He can't write fast enough for me. "

" Very convoluted plot "

" I enjoy reading local authors. I did not realize this was the 4th book in a series. Even without reading the other books I was able to keep up. Good book. "

" Not entirely realistic but entertaining. There are actually two mystery threads in First Family. Baldacci does a good job of keeping the reader interested in his fully developed characters. He seldom disappoints. "

" One of Baldacci's better suspense novels. Held my attention right up to the very last page. Not a newer one of his but one terrific story! "

" Couldnt put it down. Kept moving - no lulls!! Another good one Mr. Baldacci!! "

" Loved it. Kept me reading until the wee hours of the night!! Good, clean thriller with a great storyline. "

" This book came recommended, but I felt it was very predictable and not very exciting. Chapters were short and the writing minimal. "

" Have never read this author before but found I could not put the book down once I started, wanting to know what was going to happen next. "

" 't was moeilijk om het boek neer te leggen, zal zeker nog van deze schrijver lezen. "

" very dissappointed in this book. Too many far fetched ideas for me amoung too many story lines. "

" Fine book but not great. Easy to read and keeps you intrigued like most Baldacci novels but the plot was so unbelievable as to be not entertaining. "

" Mijn eerste boek van Baldacci. Het viel niet tegen, spannend en prima vermaak. "

" Sean King/Michelle Maxwell book 3 "

" Baldacci is generally a great storyteller, but this one fell short for me. Not as good as other Baldacci books I have read. "

" Really enjoyed this book. If anyone is open for an easy to read and can't put down book this is it. "

" Pretty quick read. Enough twists and turns to make it interesting but it still is a bit predictable, which isn't all bad. I enjoyed it. "

" I love the entire King & Maxwell series. Very well written. "

" This is an interesting spin on the lives of a fictional US President, First Lady, and their extended family. Interesting reading FBI, Secret Service, and lots of hidden secrets to uncover "

" Wow, this was an exciting book! And a look at just how evil people can be even if they are the President and First Lady. What an imagination Baldacci has. "

" Good read, but took awhile to get through. Interesting plot keeps you reading. "

" Beautiful story and totally different side of David Baldacci. I would recommend it highly. "

" Good read for summer. A little sad but worth reading. About a widower and his children and a lighthouse. "

" Wonderful story about a family and its struggles with illness and death. David Baldacci usually writes mystery books, but a great job with this novel. "

" This book if very different from Baldacci's other books. It reminds me of a Nicholas Sparks tear jeaker. Although the story started out depressing and slow, it grabbed me about a third of the way through. Good story about family relationships and redemption. "

" really sappy - a totally brainless Summer book - not even brain-candy - don't even know why I'm listening to this - maybe it's like a "rest" in music, a kind of place-holder "

" I kept looking at the cover. . .who wrote this book? Nicholas Sparks, right? No David Baldacci! Well, it's an ok beach read. I think I prefer Baldacci thrillers set in old town Alexandria, but this one will take you painlessly through a few hours of summer relaxation. "

" If you read "The Last Song" by Nicholas Sparks you will see similarities with the basic plot: a fractured family spends the summer at a beach house dealing with grief. However, there are quite a few hair pin turns and twists in this particular story I certainly did not expect. "

" Wow! May be one of my new all time favorites. Fantastic change Mr. Baldacci! "

" Nice, easy to listen to audiobook about a family dealing with death, loss and going on with life. A love story without sex scenes, no bad language, a different kind of storyline by David Baldacci. "

" This book is making me cry already! But it is good so far. <br/>I REALLY LIKED THIS BOOK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS SAD. IT MADE YOU APPRECIATE YOUR LIFE A LITTLE MORE AS IT GOES ON AND IT MAKES YOU APPRECIATE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU. IT WILL MAKE YOU CRY THOUGH. "

" This is unusual for Mr Baldacci. It is a love story and well worth <br/>reading. The story is really good and it is well written. <br/>Put this on your list for the summer but beware this is a real <br/>tear jerker "
