Wonderful telling of WWII code breakers and their work and impact on the war - absolutely great listen!

Revisado: 10-08-24

This story, inspired by real events and people, gave a look at wartime and the impact of those not on the front line. From the perspective of 3 female code breakers, the reader goes on a journey of how their work was demanding, secretive, and transformative in their own life, England, and the war. This is a great read and wonderful chapter at the end where the author walks you through the influences of the characters in the story.

This book should have been titled: Shame

Revisado: 08-19-24

The amount of times the word shame is used in this book is alarming and triggering. The author sounded arrogant at times and it felt like I was getting gaslit into trying to feel shame. This book did not provide the insight and inspiration I was hoping for. If you still want to try to ingest the content of this material, I suggest you read a physical copy of the book and not listen to it as I do feel the audio played a part in my negative reaction to this piece of work.

I really enjoyed the story of Nora and Leo. The realness of the emotions and honesty of the characters made for a great story that puts this book on my favorites category. I will re-listen/reread this book.

Powerful young adult novel about inner power and struggle in oneself and in 1989 Romania

Revisado: 11-12-23

Wonderful story and fantastic listen. Learning about communist Romania through the eyes of Christian was educational and a terrific character arc to follow. The writer takes you through the emotions and mental struggles of Christian while depicting the details so well, the reader wants to keep learning about the journey. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommended it to my 19 year old son to read. A big thank you to my 14 year olds English teacher for teaching this book in her class.

Long and uninteresting

Revisado: 02-23-23

I struggled to listen to this book. It took months to get as far as I did. I had about 5hrs left and decided to abandon the book. I was not invested in the characters and the narration was not my favorite. Make sure to listen to the sample before purchasing to see if this book is for you.

Performance, not a narration

Revisado: 06-08-22

I enjoyed this listen and story. Seatmate came across as more of a play performance than a narration as stated. It was enjoyable.

Skip this one

Revisado: 02-16-22

I really wanted to like this book. The inconsistencies in some of the plots and themes was glaring. The plot was promising as were the characters. This book needed a different editor.

Average

Revisado: 03-24-21

I really wanted to love this story but it kept falling flat. The accent didn’t seem quite right for Ian. there is nothing left for the reader to imagine as everything is blatantly stated for you. It was a frustrating listen.

Fictional what to expect when your expecting

Revisado: 02-12-21

The narrator was very good. The story and plot were predictable. If you are pregnant and want to hear about impending motherhood then you might enjoy this book. Understand that there are other thoughts on childbirth, babies first year and motherhood than what is brought to light in this book. This just wasn’t a world I wanted to be taken to during my reading time.
