Lovely story. Perfect escapism!

Revisado: 03-26-24

The story was charming and for the most part, the narration was great. I know I am being very finicky, but the French and German pronunciations were painfully bad (thankfully few and far between). I found it surprising though, since that particular narrator was wonderful in everything other way!

Had to return

Revisado: 08-27-23

I think the problem was the narrator. I couldn't listen to him. Over dramatic and yet monotone, he just went on and on.
I was annoyed and bored.
Pitty, I so wanted to hear the story but just couldn't stand him!

Beautiful heart-wrenching story

Revisado: 03-01-23

The story, the writing, and the narration of this book are all wonderful. It is a very hard story, but one that should be told. I was completely entrenched and could not stop listening. I highly recommend it.

Took a while to get into but beautiful

Revisado: 01-26-23

I thought I'd return this during the first hour or do of listening. I was simply bored. But then I got into it and couldn't stop. I am not a prude, but while necessary for the last turn of events, the end the, in depth details of the "love act" was kind of unnecessary/annoying to me. All in all, I enjoyed the descriptions, the historical aspect and the narrator was great!

Entertaining story.

Revisado: 01-23-23

I found myself looking forward to listening to this story whenever I had time. It's not deep literature, but entertaining, and the descriptions of a small town in Sicily, the beauty of the surroundings, and the colorful characters then and now are stop on! The narrator was very good. As the main character, her mispronunciations of Italian words and heavy English accent work perfectly. The few times that she speaks for the locals, her accent is a bit jarring. All in all, I highly recommend this book! It takes you away and is a good listen.

Lovely book

Revisado: 01-02-23

I enjoyed this immensely! Sweet, funny, and endearing. the characters are beautifully portrayed, and the story is "feel good." The end is a bit simplistic, but overall, I loved it and was sad to finish it.

Nope...

Revisado: 11-18-22

Remember Daniel Steel? It was ages ago but I think she was better. For me, this was a flimsy romantic soft porn. It was agravating because the setting New Orleans and the old haunted house could have been chilling and wonderful, but the ghost parts were silly and repetitive, the characters weren't solid and the accents were terrible. People either sounded Irish or Italian 🤦‍♀️. I am really disappointed.

Interesting

Revisado: 11-17-22

The story portrays an interesting perspective on part of San Francisco history. I appreciated the real, big names and hope that the portrayal of their characters had some truth in their real lives. The narrator was good except her pronunciation of foreign language words was one of the worst I have ever heard.

Interesting story.

Revisado: 11-04-22

I didn't know much about Iranian history of the past 50 years, and I found this book both interesting and entertaining. The Narrator was good but a little mechanical. She sounded like she was reading carefully.
