Scan Looking For Garbo Compiled By Jon James Miller Readable In Audio Books

couldn't get into this one, The storyline was too farfetched at times, I also didn't think that historical fiction lovers would enjoy this, as I usually love that genre and couldn't wait to be done with this one.
Absolutely the worst thing I have ever read, The author is a complete sexist that believes women will sleep with anyone moments after meeting them, The action is far fetched and just as you think it couldnt get any worse he again adds in another woman debasing herself to distract from said James Bond action.
Im not even a feminist! While this had an interesting premise, the story seemed unevenly paced and at times the plot seemed a little farfetched.
I did enjoy the pulp fiction/noir feel to the novel, but I probably would not recommend this to historical fiction fans.
"Blending hardboiled noir and romance into a compelling historical tale, Looking for Garbo is filled with heart and action, " Foreword s

James Main has a film to make, Seth Moseley has a story to tell, Neither have any idea how looking for Garbo would change their lives, When documentary filmmaker James Main places an ad looking for anyone still above ground who knew movie goddess Greta Garbo, he's delighted when Seth Moseley, a salty old reporter, replies with the promise of an untold story of why the reclusive star left Hollywood at the height of her fame.
Dying of emphysema, Seth tells the story of when he was a cutthroat paparazzo stow away aboard the S, S. Athenia, intent on getting a candid photo of Garbo to pay off his gambling debts, Instead, the newshound falls hard for the enigmatic star as soon as he meets her face to face, But all is not what it seems and when war in Europe unexpectedly breaks out while the Athenia is still steaming across the Atlantic, Seth has to singlehandedly save the movie star in the middle of an open ocean swarming with Nazis.
Their daring escape brings Garbo's film career to a premature end and shatters the lives of both star and reporter.
And, unbeknownst to James, hearing their story decades later will change his own life forever, I wrote an honest review of this and my daughter said it was mean, I read an ARC that was in my hotel room charming idea and picked it up because Garbo had happened to stay at that hotel as well for an extended time.
This book is not good, I enjoyed this book. Interesting historical perspective on one of the most enigmatic figures of theth century, And a really good historical fiction novel as well, An unfurnished gem. Wasn't impressed with it. I never got immersed into the story and the tone was just weird available at sitelinkForeword s, A very atmospheric novel about a boat trip, Greta Garbo, and some Nazis, I enjoyed it, though there are some plot holes, Jon
