This story kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. It will haunt me for some time to come.

The reader Jeremy Irons is Excellent

Revisado: 12-30-23

Trite story very similar to the Acres Of Diamonds fable. I found The latter to be a far better story. I probably would have return it unfinished if the reader hadn’t compelled me to listen until the end.

Whining of female characters very unappealing

Revisado: 01-15-22

Story had great promise but I just couldn’t stand the spineless women woven through the narrative. I also couldn’t understand how many people made stupid decisions. I thought the reader really good until she took on a pathetic whiny voice. I almost returned the book on multiple occasions and having finished the book still wonder why I didn’t. So it looks like I also am guilty of making a stupid decision.

This classic was performed exceptionally well

Revisado: 11-11-18

I last read this classic Russian novel 50 years ago. It started me on a Russian novel binge. I decided to go back and listen to the novel to rediscover what it was that fascinated me so many years ago. I was not disappointed. It is reputed to be one of the finest novels ever written. I'm not sure I would go that far only because I thought the details of some of the scenes and the length of the book would not appeal to a younger reader. Personally, I could not put it down. #classic, #russian, #historic, #cultural, #Tagsgiving, #Sweepstakes

Wonderful book on the Amish people and their culture

Revisado: 09-25-18

I rarely write reviews but this book deserves to be read or listened to by anyone interested in Amish life today. I am about to listen to it a second time, something I never do. It is that compelling!

Could not stand whiney voice of narrator

Revisado: 10-15-16

I can't even finish this book which is a shame as I'm slightly interested in how the story plays out even though it is fairly obvious. The narrator is no doubt skillful but her slow whiney style is impossible for me to listen to.

Just plain sick of books with this predictable theme.

Revisado: 09-02-16

Beautiful smart young woman gets involved with incredibly wealthy hunky guy and they beat all odds. What totally pisses me off is that the woman, with 3 degrees from an Ivy League school, starts saying and doing very stupid things in the first couple of chapters. So cliche, men are smarter no matter the degree of education each has or has not achieved. Book was so bad I think I'm going to return it. I actually bought it based on reviews, heaven help us all!
