Heart Wrenching and Beautiful

Revisado: 07-26-24

I finished the whole Anne series. And I loved all of the books in the series. I didn’t know what I’d think about a book where Anne is not the main character, but it worked. To see Anne through her child’s perspective. And the War stories and themes were touching and heart wrenching.

Delivers

Revisado: 01-26-24

Narrator is excellent! And I was glad to listen rather than read as the story was so depressing at times, listening helped me push through. It all paid off and I am so glad to have been blessed by this book. Beautiful. Fulfilling.

Exciting! Expanded my understanding and knowledge

Revisado: 11-28-23

I loved this book! After reading it I immediately wanted to share everything I'd learned with those around me. My understanding of Canada's influence on United States history expanded and grew. Last week during Thanksgiving dinner I was rambling all about what I had learned about the Quebec Act to my parents (and for context, I'm not a history major or anything: I'm a film major).
In my BYU history class, the author visited us and answered all of our questions thoroughly. He really knows his stuff, and I do not regret a second I spent learning from this book (and writing an essay based on Lennox's words).

I would recommend this book to anyone seeking to better understand some of the major decisions and elements that helped the colonies become The United States of America (hint: Canada was a big part of it).

Fun story, great reader

Revisado: 05-07-23

Love this reader! M. Wemitt brings this story to life. Listened while traveling and it was just the right length and touch for a fun, lighthearted read.

Chilling (in a good way)

Revisado: 03-22-19

The narrator’s voice for the different characters are so delightful, and you can tell who’s speaking before he tells you. His voice for the Wretch is so scary. He’s so good.
The story, without any spoilers, is non stop tension.
The writing is fantastic, and kept me on the edge of my seat even before any action had even begun. And then when it does... wow. This book walks a fine line between a physiological (make you think) book and a thriller. Really fun read.

Will he sound like Severus??

Revisado: 11-14-17

I was a bit worried that he would sound like Snape, and while he obviously did (because it's literally the same voice) it was not AT ALL distracting.
He speaks so slowly that you can put it on double speed (probably triple speed as well) and still understand perfectly.
One star off because the story is kinda slow going, but I got through it in two weeks and really enjoyed it. It's a dramatic love story, which I like.
I would recommend it.
