Great suggestions but too much profanity
Revisado: 10-05-18
This definitely gave me lots to think about but I was annoyed by the profanity. Perhaps I’m a bit sensitive but as a person who doesn’t use profanity I also don’t like hearing it. I get that the target audience are millenials but we don’t all curse or refer to stocks as being “sexy.” Putting that aside the book made me more conscious of my spending and helped me examine my financial goals.

Historia
At the age of 22, Jennifer Worth left her comfortable home to move into a convent and become a midwife in postwar London’s East End slums. The colorful characters she met while delivering babies all over London - from the plucky, warm-hearted nuns with whom she lived to the woman with 24 children who couldn't speak English to the prostitutes and dockers of the city’s seedier side - illuminate a fascinating time in history.

Lovely and intriguing but...
Revisado: 02-20-18
I love watching Call the Midwife on PBS and was not disappointed by the audiobook. But there was one chapter that I found to be a bit graphic. The description of what a young prostitute experienced were too graphic for me. I suggest editing out that portion for young readers/listeners.

Historia
In 1918, after four harrowing years on the Western Front, Tom Sherbourne returns to Australia to take a job as the lighthouse keeper on remote Janus Rock. To this isolated island, where the supply boat comes only four times a year and shore leaves are granted every other year at best, Tom brings a young, bold, and loving wife, Isabel. Three years later, after two miscarriages and one stillbirth, the grieving Isabel is tending the grave of her newly lost infant when she hears a baby’s cries on the wind. A boat has washed up on shore carrying a dead man and a living baby.

I highly recommend

Would you listen to The Light Between Oceans again? Why?
Yes. Not only is The Light Between Oceans beautifully written, but Noah Taylor did an excellent job of bringing the story to life. The subtle changes in his voice as he becomes different characters is perfectly performed. I felt like I was watching/listening to a movie that I didn't want to end!
Who was your favorite character and why?
I can't decide between Tom and Isabel. They both become so real and are such complex characters.
Which character – as performed by Noah Taylor – was your favorite?
Lucy
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes and no. Yes because the novel kept me in suspense, wanting to know what happens next but no because of how long it is.
Any additional comments?
This was my first audio book and I am sure it will not be my last!
