Slow but mesmerizing

The story seemed monotonous for a little bit here and there. But some shocking revelations came to light. Her voice was pleasing to listen to and I wanted to hear more.

Together, these essays, previously published in The Atlantic, Harper, Vogue, and The Washington Post, form a resonant portrait of a life lived with loyalty and with love.

Can't finish it
Revisado: 07-15-16
Writing is clean but horribly boring. It's only about Anne- the Title is misleading. Narrator is monotone and I can't stand listening to her talk. Cannot believe I wasted credits to buy this book. Save yourself- this is better off as firewood than a book taking up space.

Predictable
Revisado: 04-27-15
At first I enjoyed the story, I wanted to know what happened next. By mid way through, I was so mad at the characters and started to get bored hearing the content banter. I'm not sure why I finished it, but I just kept on playing it. I'll never get the time back!

While walking home from work one evening, Jeff Manning is struck by a car and killed. Two women fall to pieces at the news: His wife, Claire, and his co-worker Tish. Reeling from her loss, Claire must comfort her grieving son as well as contend with funeral arrangements, well-meaning family members, and the arrival of Jeff's estranged brother, who was her ex-boyfriend. Tish volunteers to attend the funeral on her company's behalf, but only she knows the true risk of inserting herself into the wreckage of Jeff's life.

The narration!
Revisado: 03-27-15
If you could sum up Hidden in three words, what would they be?
I really cannot handle listening to Claire's voice any longer. She pauses at the wrong time and breathes loudly as she accentuates the wrong syllable. It made her character almost unlikeable. Also, when Jeff was being narrated he would pretend to be one of the women and it was horrible. He sounded terrible- almost mimicking a woman instead of pretending to be one. I am trying to follow the story but I keep getting annoyed with their voices so I turn it off.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Hidden?
Haven't had one
How did the narrator detract from the book?
See above- in Every Way Possible! Their voices and tones don't depict what the story is telling us (good girl vs cheater-) Opinions should be based on what the reader determines from the story, nit based on the idiotic sound of the voice- valley girl?
