Good story

Revisado: 10-07-23

This was a good take on the zombie apocalypse. Some really great characters. Some HILARIOUS dialogue. Well read by the narrator also.

Couldn’t stop listening

Revisado: 03-02-23

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I’ve re listened multiple times.

The story is interesting. It partially reminds me of the book and movie “kiss the girls”. Due to the “collecting” of young girls/women (most are between the ages of 16 to 21). Also, the fact that the main kidnapper/collector fancies himself as a gentleman and (in his twisted mind) believes he “LOVES” each victim.

This story is told between two perspectives. One is the lead inspector on the case after the young ladies have been rescued from “the garden”; as he interviews a survivor. The other is a survivor of “the gardener”, who’s being interviewed. Who tells of her time in the garden.

This is a solid good story. I would definitely recommend reading it.

Better than the movie

Revisado: 02-17-23

I had seen the movie first and liked it. Usually when you like the movie you hate the book or vice versa but I enjoyed both. I do like the book a bit better than the movie because (can be) more introspective and full of detail that a movie can. This is a interesting story, nicely written and preformed well. Even though it’s a ya book; as a non ya reader I still enjoyed it a lot.

The long walk

Revisado: 02-05-23

It’s a very interesting concept. Some partially fleshed out characters. Well performed. All in all equaling a weird story with an ambiguous ending that goes along with it.

Haunting Story

Revisado: 06-19-22

A very haunting story. Containing true suffering of the poor. Well written. Well read. As good as the book I read years ago. I enjoyed the narration. I’m glad the narrator didn’t over do it with the accent of this region that the story is sat in. I definitely will listen again.

Interesting

Revisado: 05-19-22

This was an interesting story. I was completely upset that in the cheating subplot the brother was expected to just get over it. The main characters were fully formed and the author did a good job of letting you know where they’re coming from with their decisions and actions. I really like the male narrator’s gravelly voice.

Love Story

Revisado: 03-27-22

I like that this book can be read and enjoyed on its own. Yet it is a part of a series. The vacation home is where “the Romeo”s play match maker for singles that fit the criteria. This story a divorced mom of two get the down stairs and a widower with a sweet dog get the upstairs of the vacation home. They have a rocky start upon first meeting. Then become friends who help each other heal from their trauma. Then they become lovers. Then they fall in love. It’s a cute “love story”.

Amazing

Revisado: 02-08-22

I love the book. It was really interesting how King can make such a extraordinary story happen to ordinary people. The book is so much better than the movie and I love the movie. Great read.
