Just a really good story!

I liked it all. Hope there will be a series! The wife is so corny and such a hoot. The characters are all very scarily believable!

This was such an engaging story. Seems to be a true depiction of the trials at that time in that place.

Surprised by the ending.

Really good story. The narrator was so good and did a great job with all the characters. I was surprised by the ending. I'm pretty good at guessing "who done it" but totally missed this one.

Accent

Revisado: 08-07-13

What did you love best about Mercy?

I am about half way through the book and really enjoying the story. The reader is great for the part of the book where the characters don't have accents.

What did you like best about this story?

I am from South Louisiana so love to listen to stories that take place there.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Her South Louisiana accent is so distracting. It isn't even close to authentic.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Except for the distraction of the reader it is good.

Any additional comments?

Think it would be so much better to have a person with an authentic accent read those parts of the book.

Oh No! It can't be over yet.

If you could sum up State of Wonder in three words, what would they be?

Wonderful and Entertaining!

If you could rename State of Wonder, what would you call it?

I wouldn't rename it.

Any additional comments?

This is such a wonderfully written and narrated story. I really hate that it is over and do hope that Ms. Patchett will continue in another book and that Hope Davis will perform it.

Would you try another book from Tami Hoag and/or Joyce Bean?

I have read this author before and was not expecting so much fluff and so little story. This book could have been easily told in a third of the book as there was so much repeat of the same old "stuff". I kept thinking I lost my place and was repeating the same chapter over and over.

Would you ever listen to anything by Tami Hoag again?

Not before reading more about the book.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

The narrator did a good job considering what she had to work with.

You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

Can't think of any.
