I read this as a teen and really enjoyed it. After listening to it, I realize there is so much I've forgotten.

I wished that there was a greater pause between stories. they seem to run immediately after another finishes.

I really enjoyed it. The narrator does an excellent job of voicing the characters. Now it's time to watch the film version 😄

Amazing story

Revisado: 03-12-24

I loved the details and how the author presented the time period. I can't imagine the amount of research was needed to do this. The narrator was also great and read the book with empathy.

There was also one tiny section of the book where the volume went low (it was a few words and it was the end of the sentence). I believe this was in the last chapter or chapter 17. it picked up the correct volume immediately after the few words were read. Not sure why that happened. I had never experienced that before in Audible.

My one complaint is about the lack of photos. Non fiction books like this and others I've read usually have historical photos. I would love it if Audible could find a way to present them. As I was listening I looked up photos of the real people, but would have appreciated seeing the pictures included in the book. This applies to all non fiction books I've read through Audible.

Amazing research

Revisado: 02-10-24

I'm just stunned at how many details they brought together and they aren't done. I'm sure there's more to be found. I hope Ms. Hannah's pen didn't go completely silent after writing her only known work. I have the book and plan to read it next.

I don't think the book quite conveys the time it took and the beautiful threads that came together for them to be able to tell this story. I feel thankful for all their work.

Wonderful 😊

Revisado: 12-23-23

This is the fastest I've ever listened to an audiobook. I haven't seen the show and didn't know much about the story. I am a fan of K dramas and thought this would be good to listen to between shows.. it didn't disappoint. It's moving and descriptive, I feel I learned a lot while also being entertained. Sometimes I wished the author gave us more details as there was plenty to say as the lives of the family members progressed. The author was clear and did a great job.

Loved the storytelling and characters

Revisado: 12-15-23

I decided to buy this audiobook after reading an article on People Magazine. I hadn't heard anything about the author or the book before that, I'm glad I did 😉 When the stories started I didn't quite know where the characters were leading me, but then without realizing it, I was caught up and fully invested and often wished to know more once they ended. Loved Spider King... Looking forward to more of your work in the future.

Entertaining and Descriptive

Revisado: 10-19-23

I bought this because I saw the trailer for the movie and thought it would be interesting to listen to while baking or driving to work. I really enjoyed the back and forth of past and present. I wish I knew more about Mom, but our narrator does all she can to provide us with view and memory of events. This book kept my attention from beginning to end... and I still wanted more.

Great Book

Revisado: 01-10-22

With the exception of some editing errors (wrong voice for an established character), it's great. I enjoyed the background music.

The reading of the last few chapters made me tear up at times. A beautiful story. Very well read.
