Love me now and later

I'm a sucker for anything that has time travel as a contrivance. This is a very enjoyable short story. Thank you, Wil Wheaton, for introducing me to this author - I will look for other works!

There's always more to a story

I loved learning Queenie's story and how it came to be that Harold Fry would take his unlikely walking journey to visit her near the end of her life.

Brilliant cast added so much!

Revisado: 12-14-24

I confess that, in my semi-retirement, I'm reading some well-known literature that I've either forgotten or never read in the first place. This "performance" of David Copperfield kept me engaged and sometimes amused as I never was by the words on paper of this Dickens classic.

I was right there on the cherry farm as Lara told her daughters the stories.

If only there was room in our world for dragons...

Perhaps the world would be this one, where families are chosen, and loves can be large. Loved it, and have recommended this book and reading to several of my friends.

I ❤️ vintage sewing machines

...which is the main reason for choosing this book. I'd guessed part of how the different characters' storylines might converge, but it was interesting to hear it play out. I have my great-grandmother's Singer treadle sewing machine, so I appreciate the family history connection in the book.

I would have fired her

Revisado: 08-05-23

This was a pick in my book club, and I listened to it while sewing a quilt and walking my dog. it was occasionally entertaining, but I really wanted to fire the protagonist. She was the worst employee ever, by her own admission. There was so much whining about not finding a job she loved, which reminds me of some of my friend's children who are still living at home after college. I wanted to tell her to suck it up, buttercup! A job is to make money so you can do things you love. She just kept making stupid decisions and doing stupid things that hurt people she supposedly cared about.

Couldn't listen to the narration

Revisado: 06-22-22

Badly modulated narration for one of the timelines. Ended up borrowing the book from a friend. Good story, though.

I will keep this one handy for days when I feel like a bird pooped on me, even it didn't happen.

Fascinating

Revisado: 11-14-20

intriguing story of the fascination with "oddities" in the Victorian era. Lyrical writing adds charm to the story, and the narrator did a great job of bringing the various characters to life.
