"Amelia B. Edwards' 'The Phantom Coach' - The story changes gears from loneliness & isolation to the supernatural & believing what experiments cannot prove, thus James Murray being the 4th passenger. But I suffer from the same fatal flaw of wanting proof. If she could have said something more about the 4th passenger, I would have believed his claims more easily. But I assume that is not the point of the story, right?" — 22 hours, 59 min ago

"Nora Ephron's sense of humour and Meryl Streep's narration makes this book the ideal audiobook about "heartburn" or so it seems after a couple of hours in!

It is scary how much I relate with lovely but late Nora." — Jan 02, 2026 06:25PM

“No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally – and often far more – worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond.”

The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign’d”
