Enjoyable!

I enjoyed listening to Tom Selleck tell his story. He is humble and private, so if you're looking for a tell-all book, this isn't it. The "brick laying" (his words) of his career is very interesting. He comes off as a man of integrity and great work ethic.

Best credit I've ever used!

This book had it all. I was hooked from the beginning. The characters, the narration, the delicious storyline, the twists, the turns… And it was all tied up neatly in a bow at the end.

Top ten!

Revisado: 06-10-24

This book was not at all what I expected. Having said that, it was excellent on all fronts. The research was outstanding, the narration superb, and the subject matter needed to be told. I've read or listened to at least a hundred books about the Holocaust, and this one is definitely at the top of my list of titles to recommend.

While I cannot say this was an enjoyable read, it was riveting, fact-based, told with integrity, and narrated beautifully.

Superb

I remember as a 10 year old watching the news every night...watching the news coverage of the vets returning...being spat upon. I remember my POW bracelet (Joe Pringle from WV) and visiting The Wall and finding his name. This book brought all the feelings, all the emotions, the negativity, the heartbreak, back. The Women is a must read for every American. Kudos to Kristin Hannah for her research, her skill, her coverage of a topic that is still under-reported.

Spectacular book.

Beautiful, sweeping saga

It doesn't happen often, but I didn't want this epic novel to end. Five stars!

Extremely well written; I can't say enough about the author's perfect choice of phrasing and descriptions. This storyline has so many layers, unexpected delights, and the comfort of truth.

Wonderful!

I highly recommend this fast-paced book! The adventures of this doctor and his family in Nome in the early 70s is a winner. You will fall in love with the villagers and the relationships, and admire the stamina and courage of the doctor's wife, Pat!

Spectacular, sweeping saga

I didn't know what to expect when I began listening, but was very quickly drawn into Leah Purcell's engaging narration. She has written a spectacular story, and I shall recommend it to everyone. This is a book I'll remember.

The only downside of this book was its short length. I could listen to Ben and Erin all day. Their story is beautiful, and they are genuine and down to earth.

I wanted to love this but it The Kunstlers was a klunker

Revisado: 04-11-23

Story: nothing new
Narration: left a lot to be desired
Characters: undeveloped and lacking oomph
Why did I finish? I paid for it and I'm no quitter

I found this plodding, not very interesting, and not satisfying. The story was superficial and I wanted the story to dig deep.

The narration killed it for me. The characters were so predictable.

I cannot recommend this title.
