A poignant read.

This book shared example and racial issues we all need to know, and work to reverse. Relatable, challenging, and hopeful.

Life changing

Revisado: 05-20-24

My mom was a child in Hamburg, Germany during the war. This credit my written book has introduced me to more nuance of her life, and I so wish I could go back in time and ask her new questions. The writing in this book is exquisite, the narrator is perfect, and the weaving together of the story lines is brilliant.

Great narration. Compelling storylines.

Revisado: 04-01-24

I enjoyed this book, but it sure went over my head a lot. I didn’t feel it needed to have as many details about the dig sites and that the book is so long made them even harder to embrace. But I love Picoult’s insightful one-liners that can both uncover as well as wrap up a mystery of the world.
This isn’t my favorite book of hers, but I stand in so much respect of what she does and the thoroughness with which she does it!

Nice easy read

Revisado: 03-25-24

I enjoyed this read. There were a few wonderful glimpses along the way, but I would have liked those to be expanded some. But a nice read. And certainly had one considering the beauty and strength of life in the Midwest.

Incredible!

Revisado: 02-25-24

The plot, the weaving of stories and time, the character development, the range of emotions, and the power of story come alive in multitudes of ways in this book. I believe this is one of the best books I’ve ever read, and I’m so grateful for the window into this rich - and too often unrecognized and unhonored - part of our American history.
I am in deep gratitude for this book, snd highly recommend it without any reservation at all.
Simply, wow.

Wonderful twists and texture

The power of human relationships is so real throughout this story. Many of the characters were described in great depth, yet in leading much to the imagination.

Such a pleasing read

Revisado: 01-04-24

This is a lovely story that lends itself to imagination and wonder. The first half of the book lagged some, but the second half well made up for it. This was my first read for 2024, and I’m so glad it was.

Memorable and powerful

Revisado: 09-20-23

When this story wasn’t breaking my heart, it was giving my life. The narration is certainly one of the most beautiful and poignant I’ve heard.

One of the best books I’ve read

Revisado: 08-24-23

I fell in love with Remy right from the beginning, so much so that it was hard to enjoy Ann’s ‘chapters’. But the two stories beautifully come together and I hated this book to end.
Am incredible testimony to the human spirit, endurance, power and hope. I’m so glad to have come across this book.

Beautiful story and incredibly narrated!

Revisado: 07-31-23

It took me a while to get started with this book, but once I did, I was unable to put it down. Great story, thought-provoking, funny, and more than I expected. Also, the narration was fantastic.
