The most disturbing book I've ever listened to

Revisado: 03-15-19

Racism between whites and blacks is inexcusable. But there is no understanding of the racism among light skinned blacks and dark skinned blacks. This is the 1st book I've read that discusses this phenomenon.

Very entertaining in both story and narrator.

Revisado: 10-20-17

One of the best narrators I've heard —a black man reading in the dialect today's blacks speak. Also, N and F words are almost constant so if that offends you, this isn't for you. The story is excellent, fast paced and never dull. Not a wasted word in the whole story. Can't wait to listen to the next one and hope there are many more.

Excellent. Well worth the listen.

Revisado: 09-01-17

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Not the typical "4 college friends" book. One of the friends is a "cutter" and I've never understood why someone would do that to themselves. This book gives a glimpse into the kind of mental pain that would drive someone to hurt themselves. It's a long book but well worth the listen.

I fell for the reviews, don't you... This is poorly written, plot is stupid and narrators bad. Not worth listening to.

Curious as to how much of this is story true

Revisado: 02-02-16

After one of these books, I wonder how much of the information in it is true. In this case, I wonder if the USA would actually work with a terrorist group in order to achieve an end favorable to the USA. Also, how much of the drone technology revealed is accurate. Knowing how much money the USA gives to countries with bad actors (e.g., Iran and Pakistan) and the fact we no longer capture our enemies, we just drone them, I wouldn't be surprised to find that something similar to this book has actually happened.

Another Highly Rated Flop

Revisado: 02-02-16

I don't now when I'm going to learn not to trust reviews and stars. The writing was so so, the story a soap opera easily figured out, and the narration awful, especially the guy that read Owen. Matter of fact, both guys weren't very good. I would not recommend this book unless it becomes a daily deal.

18 hours of horrible narrators of a boring story

Revisado: 08-22-15

After seeing this book picked so many times by Audible editors as a book of the month and year, I finally gave up and listened to it. What a waste of 18 hours. The story is about 3 people that never meet and you never really know what they have to do with each other. The story of each character is boring and the narrators border on grating on your nerves, especially the 2nd guy. The woman's voice sounds awful, and her reading is even worse. The 2nd guy sounds like he has throat problems. Just awful. But no matter how good they were, they wouldn't have been able to save such a terrible book. Especially the ending. Don't waste your time or money on this one.

4 Stars, Really ???? No See Jane Run !!!

Revisado: 10-29-14

I've read a couple other Liane Moriarty books and loved them. But this one was ridiculous. There is nothing believable in her reaction to losing 10 years of her memory. The questions she asks are not believable, the conclusions she draws from her surroundings, her reactions to people, etc. just make no sense. I quit listening to it after 10 chapters. Not wasting the time. See Jane Run a much better amnesia book. Narrator not so hot either.

Hard to Believe By Author of Me Before You

Revisado: 06-19-14

Me Before You is one of my all time favs. Which is why I decided to try this book. There is no comparison in the depth of the story, writing and characters between the two books. This book is so-so at best.
