Mostly good

Revisado: 10-24-24

It kept my attention just enough to not give up. It is a little slow. Read the description carefully. This book is about the details of an affair. Only the last 15 min were insightful.

Mystery, kept my interest

Revisado: 02-03-24

I liked the character development and consistency. Sometimes some events in a story are too jarring, but I was ok with this book. The little girl’s voice got on my nerves but narrated kid’s voices often do. I stayed interested throughout and didn’t foresee what would eventually happen. I’d definitely listen to this author and narrator again.

Wonderful

Revisado: 12-28-23

A truly wonderful book. The characters show us who they are in a most genuine way.
I like that the storyline has such a great arch and that there was suspense through out.
Listened for a second time. The first was 5 yrs. ago, I’d forgotten the details. I’m so glad I listened again.

Suspenseful

Revisado: 11-28-23

The sort is suspenseful, characters act true to their descriptions. It isn’t edge-of-my-seat type story for me but it may be because all but I character are much younger than me and sometimes I can’t relate.it could be a tad shorter in some descriptions. Very enjoyable.

Too cerebral with disappointing ending

Revisado: 10-24-23

The title above says it all. There are too many explanations of philosophy, psychology and scientific terms and theories. It drug the story out. It’s all repetitive in other ways.
The promise of a mystery solved in an unexpected way kept me reading. I was disappointed.

Highsmith’s Ripley, Superb Again

Revisado: 10-20-23

I love this character and the voice that narrates the Ripley series. Highsmith does such wonderful character development of each major player. And those that reappear from earlier works are consistent and kind, caring, self-centered and psychopathic through and through. Great twists and turns here, too.

Thought Provoking

Revisado: 10-06-23

I appreciate the interesting information about the thoughts and feelings of Emmon Bodfish, his son and actually, all involved. Their presentation as fallible human beings is also appreciated.

Great characters, acting, dialogue. It’s amazing how a playwright represents the human experience so accurately and succinctly.

Really enjoyed the experience

Revisado: 09-14-22

This book is not all happy-go- lucky, or an all-good-feelings kind of book. I still enjoyed it though because the characters are well developed, the storyline is not predictable and the characters seem so real. It wasn’t a story that I would say I could not put down. But it is the kind of story where I would think about the characters when I wasn’t listening. I look for books to take me away from my every day life and help me relax while I learn about other places and other people and their experiences, even fictionalized. This one was just that for me.
